Very Remarkable Recovery.

Mr.. Geo. V. Willing, of Manchester, Mich,
writes: s'My wife has been almost helpless
for five years, so helpless that she could not
turn over in bed alone. She used two bot

work."
Electric Bitters will do all that is claimed
for them. Hundreds of testimonials attest

proposition to discard Latin and

educational institutions. This is
such sudden and remarkable pro-

IN MEMORIAM.

The death of Miss Ida Garvin and
her brother Ross, daughter and son of
Thomas Garvin, of Lyra, is SO particu-
larly touching that it would seem the
part of cruelty to have it so, did we
not know that the Giver and Taker of
our lives "doeth all things WE'LL" and
that he always takes to himself his
brightest jewels.
Miss Ida Garvin had chosen the
teachers work for her profess
sion. She has been an attendant at
the Mankato normal school for over
two years and had commenced another
years work expecting to graduate next
spring. Her natural mental brilliancy,
genial disposition and christian charac-
ter had won her place in all circles of
her acquaintance which is not often
awarded to any. She was an earnest
member of the Baptist chnrch, and the
devotion she showed toward all church
and Sabbath School work was the fruits
of an invincible faith in the worth of
christian principles and the efficacy of
a religious life. The home of which
she was one of the gems is, by the sud-
denness of her departure, left almost
disconsolate, but the same ever-sustain-
ing religion which made her life SO
worthy, and her approaching death
void of regret, will, and does sustain
them in their bereaved condition.
Ida went to her home about a week be-
fore her death to attend Ross, her
brother, who was taken with typhoid
fever while attending school with her
in this city, not feeling we'll herself,
but anticipating no such fate. She was
taken suddenly sick with heart disease
and left the brother for whom she was
so kindly caring, only to be followed by
him in very few days; he dying with
out knowledge of her death. The
brother and sister have left many
bright prospects and happy associa-
tons, speaking in worldly sense, but,
1.-The departed are happier far
Than those they left behind"
Alta meeting of the graduating classes of
the Mankato N. s., held Oct. Goth, 1884, to
take action respecting the death of Miss Ida
Garvin, a member of the Sen. class, the fol-
lowing resolutions were unanimously adopt
ed:
WHEREAS, Miss Ida Garvin was one OF the
most promising and best beloved members
Of the Senior class of the Mankato Normal
School, and
WHEREAS, Her intelligence, her sweet tenn
per, and gentle manner had won the love
and esteem of her classmates, and all who
were acquainted with her; and
WHEREAS, 1t has pleased Almighty God i'll
Whose ways she walked, to remove her from
our midst to home Of eternal happiness.
Therefore be it
Resolved, That by her death we have been
deprived of a loving friend and classmate
whose absence we shall mourn, and whose
memory shall ever remain fragrant in our
hearts, and
Resolved That we do extend our heartfelt
sympathy to the bereaved family and rela-
lions, and
Resolved, That copies of these resolutions
be transmitted to her parents, and printed in
the Mankato papers.
