plane PROF. William Ireland
Mr.. Ed. Barnard, who has who has

The Pepin County Institute was

and interest. The work done was
unusually practical.
SENSE OF HONOR IN BoYs.-There is
great confusion in boys notions of
honor. You should not go to the
teacher with tales of your school.
mates, but when questioned by those
in authority over you. parents. guar
dams or teachers, it is your duty to
tell who did a mischief or broke a
rule, no matter what results to your
self or how unpopular you become.
Bows have false honor which hides
mean and skulking actions in each
other. which ought to be ridiculed out
of them. The most eowardly injuries
and Injustice among boys 90 I'M
checked, and the weaker are abused
and bullied in way every decent boy
should resent, because this false no.
ton of comradeship leads them to lie,
prevaricate. or keel, silence to screen
the guilty. Teachers and friends
ought to put down this ignorant, petty
s.sense of HONOR for something more
intelligent and upright. When you
know of wrong. and keep silence
about it when asked, you become a
partner in the wrong. and responsible
for it's original meanness. 1t is pity
that boys and grown people did not
carry the same strictness of principle
they show in screening DULLES and
frauds into points of genuine honor
and courage.-Wide Awake.
WORDS. -.sWords are the material
with which we, the artisans of the
mind, embody our conceptions, Illus
trate our theories, or convey our in
structions; they are the bricks out of |
which we build the edifice of our con-
versations IN oral tuition, or construct |
the fabric of our written composition,
substantiating our ideas and thus |
rendering them patent to the discern |
ing faculties of our fellows. And as
the expert workmon in clay uses none |
but the purest forms of earth, etc.. |
wherewith to perpetuate the fruits of |
his skill and at the SAINT time satisfy |
the claims of his employers, so we,
the mechanics of the school-room, as |
moulders not only of the intelligent |
thought but also of coherent speech. |
owe it to our employers, the pupils |
under tuition. to utilize none but the |
fittest and most apt expressions which |
a large and sufficiently varied voc ,bu
larry places at our disposal. More |
than this: we are not only bound to |
use none but the best material, we are,
as progressive intelligences and edu-
Gators, under the intellectual and |
moral obligation to discard much of |
the impure, inelegant and even vicious
yerbiage now obtaining in all classes
OF society, which passes with tie
masses as genuine Sevres ware, but
which is, after all but poor dross,
adulterated i'm texture and inartistic
in design, and totally untitled for the
high offices it is, alas! too frequently |
chosen to perform. - Prof. A. II. Nor
riSon.

A drive about the village assures us
that there are many localities to be

the suburbs that are disgrace to a

pig pens and COW stables, which if left

Ecleom CONSUMPTION Cure.

The greatest lung medicine ever
discovered. Overwhelming testimony
accompanies every bottle, proving it
to be the greatest medicine ever Of
ferred to the public. AS an expec-
torant it has no equal. Eclegm Con-
Cure invariably cures
coughs. colds. Group, hoarseness, and
is indispensable to orators and vocal
lists, because it strengthens the lungs
and imparts to the voice fullness and
clearness of tone that cannot be at

purely vegetable, and is natures best
assistant in curing throat troubles.

New Life


is given by using Browns
IRON BITTERs. In the
Winter it strengthens and
warns the system; in the
Spring it enriches the blood
and conquers disease; in the
Summer it gives tone to the
nerves and digestive organs;
in the Fall it enables the
system to stand the shock
of sudden changes.
In no way can disease be
SO surely prevented as by
keeping the system in per-
feet condition. Browns
IRON BITTERs ensures per-
feet health through the
changing seasons, it disarms
the danger from impure
water and miasmatic air,
and it prevents Consump-
ton, Kidney and Liver Dis
ease, &c.

Some twelve or fifteen iron bridges
are much needed in this town to re-
place the old wooden structures that
are becoming rather dilapidated, and
those who think taxes grievous would
now do well to confer with our chair
man and have him interview the King
Iron Bridge and Mfg. Co. at Cleveland,
Ohio, and have that company under
stand that notwithstanding most of
our farms are heavily mortgaged we
are very DESTROYS to be fully devel-
oped, and make our town attractive by
having requisite number of tubular
and lean arch bridges. with iron
piers and abutments. Then we would
be sufficiently advanced to apply for
an appropriation OF IA few hundred dol
lars to dredge the Eau Gala River and
fit it for navigable purposes Then
will come the railroad, and you will
never regret the many thousands of
dollars outlay, your joy will be so
full. Now every man who has not his
hundred thousand dollars to plank
right down can mortgage his farm, it's
easily done, and besides his creditors
will see that he means business. Try
it. for with your pocket full of antici-
pations rolled into wad is big thing.
Since writing the above Tolif john
son with his teams was returning home
with a load of lumber from Tic &
Preston's saw-mill, Martin Johnson
and Peter johnson being on the load.
and while crossing the bridge just be-
low the mill the timbers gave way and
the whole structure, with the team
and three men went to the bottom Of
the river. Martin johnson was badly
bruised and the wagon demolished.
The team was saved without injury.

SALICYLICA is known as a common sense
remedy, because it strikes directly at the
cause Of Rheumatism, Gout and Neuralgia,
while so many so-called specifics and sup
posed panaceas only treat locally the effects.
1t has been conceded by eminent scientists
that outward applications, such as rubbing
with oils, ointments, liniments and soothing
lotions will not eradicate these diseases
which ar the result of the p oisoning OF the

SALICYLICA works with marvellous ef-
