Entertainment for the Benefit
of the Pour.

We are on the eve of winter that will
bring restitution and want to many of the
poor in our community, unless the public
spirited and benevolent people of Eaton, who
are able to do SO, shall adopt some means to
alleviate their wants. St. Clair Lodge, No.
1472, Knights of Honor, is disposed to do what
it can in this direction, and to that end has
engaged Mr.. D.. P. Dean, the clever dialect
humorist, to deliver his lecture entitled. why
We Laugh" at the Opera House, Thursday
evening, Nov. 5th. His lecture contains ex-
hilirating stories, racy jests, comical hits,
Dutch, French, Yankee, Negro and Irish COM
icalities, funny caricatures, cute sayings,
ludicrous drolleries and peculiar repartee. In
fact contains most everything which will
''touch the funny bone" every time. The net
receipts are to be donated to the poor, and
will be distributed by q committee to be APP
pointed for that purpose.

Teachers Association.

The program as announced in last weeks
papers was carried out, with the exception of
the inaugural address by Pres't A. b. john
son, who was detained by severe illness. The
meeting was called to order by President Car
nahan, of the Cincinnati schools, at 1:so p. m.
The hall was we'll filed at that hour, but by 2
o'clock all available space was taken. After
the address of welcome, and the response by
Mr.. J. K. Sharkey, Pres't R.. w. Mcfarland,
Of Miami University, read a scholarly and
thoughtful paper, "Studies for Discipline"
In this he taught that no study should be pur-
sued for discipline only, but that the study
should be, followed for practieability, and the
discipline will thus be obtained. Too much
ground of discipline, and not enough with an
eye to tangible results. The best training in
every way comes from the study which has in
il the material for future use in all the walks
of life. Professor Mcfarland has lost none of
his ability to entertain and to instruct, and
his paper was listened to with marked atten-
ton. He has been a benefactor of man in the
highest sense, and his sphere of usefulness is
not vet exhausted.
Mr.. A. A. Graham, of Columbus, o., gave a
talk on "The Beginning of Education in the
Northwest" Mr.. Graham is connected with
the State Archaeological Society, and was pres
ent at the meeting in the interest of tlat soci-
ETY.. His talk gave much on the
subject of early education in Ohio, showing
that the first schools were held at Fl. Har-
NOR, Marietta and Belpre. The speaker also
explained the object and plan of Ohio's Gen.
tennial IN 1888.
Commissioner L. n. Brown explained the
origin and location of public lands in Ohio
By the aid of map and diagram the subject
was made very plain, and much valuable in
formation was given to teachers on this SUBJ
ject. Mr.. Brown spent the forenoon and all
leisure time among his many friends in Ea-
ton. His work as Commissioned of Common
Schools is very acceptable to the teachers
and scholars of the State, being characterize
ed by careful inquiry and persistent efforts.
The music BY HarIan's Orchestra was of the
best, and made a valuable addition to the pro-
gram. The visitors were especially well pleas.
ed with the large and cultured audience in at
tendance and with the treatment they receiv'
ed in Eaton. They will hold pleasant memo
ries of their visit to Eaton and Preble county
After the exercises the following gentle
men, all practical teachers, visited the new
school building and pronounced it one of thu
finest in the State: Pres. R. W. Mcfarland
! w. P. Cope, Prin. Hamilton High School; L
u D. Lesh, A.. A. Graham, ]. P. Cummins, G

RHEUMATISM ROUTED.
A Case from Scrfven County

In the editorial columns of the Telephone,
published at Sylvania, the county seat of Scri-
ven county, Ga, in the number bearing date
August IA, the editor, Col. VIM. L. Matthews,
Jr., has the following in reference to a re-
markable cure of rheumatism by Swift's Spe-
cific:
ave know a gentleman in this county who,
six months ago, was almost a hopeless cripple
from an attack of rheumatism. He could
scarcely hobble across the room, used crutch
es, and said himself that he had little if any
hope of ever recovering. We saw him in our
town last week, walking about as lively as any
other man, and in the finest health and spirits.
Upon our inquiry as to what had worked such
a wonderful change in his condition, he re-
piled that Swift's Specific had cured him.. He
said he was on the eve of starting for the Hot
Springs in search of relief, but was persuad-
ed by one of his neighbors to try Swift's Spe-
ci6c, and after using a dozen and a half bot
ties, he has been transformed from a misera-
BILE cripple to a happy, healthy man. He is
one of our most worthy and successful citi.
zens, and is none other than Mr.. E. B. Lam.

cure all diseases. This must be a mistake
because the great success of the Shaker Ex-
tract of Roots (Sieeel's SYRUP is due almost
solely to the fact that it is made to cure enc
single disease, namely, Indigestion, for which
it is a certain remedy. The aching head, con-
stipated bowels, causing languor and fatigue,
vanish as soon as soon as soon as this remedy
is used.
A. H. Toon, of Fancy Farm, KY, writes
May 81, 1884, as follows: 81 wish to inform
you that your medicine has odne more good
than any I have ever used. and l do hope this
will be read by all those who are afflicted with
dyspepsia, rheumatism and general debility.

"To print or not to print is what often puz-
zles a local editor. Subscribers expect all the

to steer clear of trouble in a country print
shop. Jokes are considered very proper when
cracked at the expense of other fellows, but
Just keep "our' names out of print is what all

The DaIrympIe Farms.

One of the most enjoyable experiences of
the members Of the grand lodge of Masons
during their session at Fargo the past week
was the excursion given them by the North
ern Pacific railroad out twenty miles west
to Casselton, through some of the vast
wheat fields of the system of farms known
as the Dalrymple. They have some forty
thousand acres in wheat, of which about
twelve thousand lie along the Northern Pa
cifc and are mostly visible from the cars.
The sight of an expanse of wheat reaching
out almost as far as the eye could go was
regarded by the viewers from the South as
very interesting and impressive. The grain
was from three to six inches above the
ground, dark green in color, and well set,
promising the largest yield. The groups of
houses and, buildings forming the headquar-
tiers on the Cheney and Cass farms were
visible in the distance, all looking neat and
tidy and connected by telephone.
