A Big Success.

MY wife had been ailing a long time with
AVA dyspepsia and nervousness, and was in
bed two years with complication OF disor-
ders her physicians could not cure, when
was led by reading circular left ut my door
to try Parker's Ginger Tonic. Having been
30 often deceived by worthless mixtures,
nothing but my wife's dangerous condition
could have led US to make any more expert
ments. But 1t was big success. Three bot
ties cured her, at cost Of $3.50, and she is
now as strong as any woman, and regularly
does her household duties.-R. D., Buffalo.

TO TIC EditOr OF the CF,fic:
SIR: A number of people in this city
would like to know under what rules pro-
motions are made from the female high
school to the normal school. This problem
has been the cause of annual agitation
among the scholars and their parents for
several years. II has been the cause of
more surprise and disappointment on the
part of students and their parents than any
thing else occurring during the scholastic
year. This season of annual examination
is no exception Last Saturday the students
of the high school were examined for seats
in the normal and the result was made
known on Tuesday. 1t brought greater
surprise, in several instances, than ever be-
fore, showing that the peculiar method in
use by the board of trustees is growing, TO
say the least. During the past two years
one young lady, whose name can be given,
has held, by the right of written cxamina-
ton, the highest seats in her class. She
STOOD also, very high in attendance and de-
pertinent, until her teachers and the entire
school considered her promotion certain.
| With the class of thirty-siX members she
was summoned before the board of trustees
on Saturday last with high hopes of at
| tanning her goal of ambition, and no one
doubted her success, for she was admitted
I to be the brightest Of the number. Ycstcr-
day the result was made known before the
school, and the favorite was not mentioned
in the list of the twenty five fortunate ones.
Those who had always been ut and near the
lower standard of class rating were given
promotions-how or on what basis, is not
known. This is question which the
patrons of the school would like to have
the board of trustees answer d.

United States District Attorneys Office that
New York has plenty of such men. The
only purpose of being abusive, insolent or

sets are the complete vocal and Orchestral
scores of 20 operas which he values at
$4,000, but he believes they would not
bring more than $1,000 ut u sale. There
are also the wardrobes and properties for
"Aida," Carmen" Faust" and "Lohen-
grim" and other stage property and furni-
ture. These he values ut $4,000, but he
thinks they could be sold for not more than
$4,000. Among Mr.. Stakosch's creditors
