RHEUM ATS M!
ITS CAUSE AND CURE
BY AN ENGLISH PHYSICIAN

This painful malady was forme rly
considered to be entirely the res ult
OF age, cold or exposure, but medi cal
science has now demonstrated that
it is a disease in the blood, VIII ich
may be inherited in so dangerous q
form as to cause deathin youth or
middle age, and even in infan cy.
That the enemy courses through the
veins, mixed in life fluid, in a LIQUID
form for certain length OF time;
that it gradually, through variety
of causes, becomes partially soIidi-
fed into sort of clayey substance
This accommodating in the joints Of
the fingers. toes and limbs, beco mes
an obstruction to the circulation, and
In time stiffens the joints, causing
IN many instances great pain and
suffering. 1t also materially affects
the healthy action of the vital Or
=, gans, interfering with the heart, the
stomach and the kidneys. Il rem
edY such as that known as Britannia
Is the best that can be taken to re-
move the disease, and to give the
proper tone to all parts of the sys-
tenn. No external application can
remove rheumatism. Patients who
use various oils, lotions and lini-
ments, are dying every day from
this disease. But no one has yet
died OF rheumatism to my know
ledge who used Britannia, even
when the disease was so far advan-
ced as to cause complete prostra-
ton. This valuable family medi-
cine can be be obtained at lions

The Somerset Lodge of the Independent
Order OF odd Fellows dedicated their hand
some new lodge room on Main cross street,
Moaday evening, and celebrated the occa-
sion by grand banquet az the Somerset
House the same evening. Visiting delesa-
lions from all the sister lodges in the ooan-
ty, save one, were present. The lodge met
in their old room in Baer's Block, where a
procession was formed, and after some
marching through the town, headed by the
Stoystown Drum Corrs, they repaired TO
their new room and proceeded TO formally
dedicate il according 70 the prescribed ce-e.
monies OF the order. The officers Of the
Grand Lodge present were d. ID. q. NJ, B.

II. Jordan, OF Bedford. After the services
were ended remarks were made by
Messrs Jordan, Colborn, Duncan, Lavan,
Puffenberger and Snyder, after which those
present adjourned to the Somerset House,
where the banquet tables were spread.
Plates were laid for one hundred guests.
The rooms were handsomely decorated with
evergreens and flowers, and were brilliantly
lighted. Beautiful boquets of choice fiow-
ers were distributed over the tables in the
greatest profusion. We will not attempt a
description OF the tables, or what they con-
tanned. Suffice ii to say that the Somerset
House caterer beat his best record very de
cidedly we think the ices were brought in
\
their wives, and others who accompanied
them did justice TO the elegant repast, would
be stating il mildly.

TEACHERS.

Two hundred and .forty-two teachers
were employed during the past term, and
with few exceptions tried to do their work
well, while many of our teachers are not as
fully prepared for their work as could be
desired. They are generally doing excellent
work An effort has been made TO encour-
age teachers TO do more reading, Questions
were asked at the examinations about our
best writers and authors, and other persons
prominent in public life. At our last insti-
tute =" Brooks Methods of Teaching" was
adopted as the work to be read and studied
by teachers during the year. AT the pre-
ceding institute "Baldwin's Art of School
Management was adopted. Many teach
ers have purchased these books, and We
hope much good will result from their care
ful reading and study During my vista
tions last winter it was already to be notic-
ed that there existed q greater uniformity
in the calling and dismissing OF classes and
in the general management of school work
Ii could be easily observed who had been
reading the work adopted. The salaries
paid teachers in many districts r entirely
too low TO secure the best talent, yet we are
pleased to note that tire average salaries of
male teachers in the county have advanced
from s24s5 in 1880, to S29.22 in 1888, and of
female teachers from S2l7 in 1850. to s23.79
in 1881. This shows gradual increase of
the average salaries paid a fact We are glad
to report and encourage. 1t is unreasonable
to expect 10 retain our best teachers to do
school work, when almost every other oc-
cnpation offers them better pay and more
permanent employment. About 20 per
cent. of our teachers quit teaching in the
county yearly, and they are usually our
most experienced. This is loss of teach
ing force that We cannot well afford to lose,
and while the number who take their places
bring new life and vigor to the work. they
lack that essential element, successful ex-
perience- which time, earnest toll and effort
only can give.
