LIVE LONG AND he HAPPY.

Why should not everyone live out
their full allotted time, enjoy good
health and be happy? Surely there is
no GOOD reason, and yet many will al
low impure blood, weakness of the
kidney 8, imperfect digestion, and urin-
ary troubles to undermine and break
down their general health, and carry
them to a premature grave. Some seek
relief among mineral poisons, in pill
form, etc., others resort to extensively
advertised alcoholic beverages and fer
mented liquors, only to feel themselves
for time somewhat better, but after
awhile much worse. Now, why should
this be so? It is we'll known by the
intelligent portion of our community
that DIR. GuysOtt's Yellow Dock and
Sarsaparilla will surely remove all
these disorders. The medicine is the
wonderful discovery of an eminent
French physician, and has proven it
self in thousands of instances to be the
best vegetable blood purifier known to
medical men. 1t never fails to effectu-
ally cure ScrOfula, Syphilitic disorders
weakness of the kidneys, all nervous
disorders and debility, and all urinary
and digestive troubles. 1t makes the
old feel full of youthful vigor, and the
young energetic and gay, restoring
perfect manhood and 'womanhood, es-
pecially when the disease has a ten
dency to weaken the mind, body and
nervous system. Do not despair. A
single bottle will convince you of its
great merit as a health renewer. for it
begins at once to give new life and
new vigor to both body and mind,
never falling to remove all symptoms
of any and every disease that can
be cured by cleansing, renovating, pur-
flying and strengthening the human
system, driving out, as if by magic, the
many ills the flesh is heir to, and build
ing up new health, new vigor, and
new life. Large quart bottle, $1.0O.
Belding & Armstrong are agents for
this excellent preparation.

The schools in. this township have

model school. There were eighteen
scholars enrolled, nine of whom did
not miss single day, three but one
day apiece, other missing only two or
three days. I visited the school last
week and everything was like clock
work, so to speak order and method
governing. One little class of six,
their ages ranging from four to eight
years, took their places, pronounced
their own words and spelled around
the class, by actual count, fifty-five
times without one word from their
teacher. We understand they have
some seventy-five rounds of words that
they can spell in this way, making 450
words. Can this be beat i'm the county :?
