Keep the Band.

In order to avoid holding fair
this year, the City Band has decided
to give series of concerts in tho
Rink, beginning the first week in
January, continuing during the year
one concert every other week, or two
a month. The music loving public
have had these concerts all
summer free, and it is hoped suffi-
cient appreciation will be shown by
a liberal response to this effort to
raise funds with which to keep up
the band. The price of admission
will be 10 cents each concert, which
is within the reach of every one.
The band members have taken
tickets to sell to all persons who
wish to procure them. Remember
the price OF tickets is only 10 cents.
Encourage the boys in this small
way, ard of the same time get the
worth of your money in return.
All wishing reserved seats, can
have them marked off at Homrich g
Jewelry Store without extra charge.

that a cross be added to the stone
work, and although her husbands
friends are willing to comply with
her wishes in every respect, she is

The laws of health are taught in
the schools; but not in way to be
of much practical benefit and are
never illustrated by living examples,
which in many cases might easily be
done. If some scholar, who had just
contracted a cold, was brought be-
fore the school, so that all could
hear the dry, loud cough and know
its significance; see the thin white
coating on the tongue and later, as
the cold developed, see the profuse
watery expectorati on and thin wat
cry discharge from the nose, not one
of them would ever forget what the
first symptoms of cold were. The
scholar should then be given Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy freely,
that all might see that even a severe
cold could be cured in one or two
days, or at least greatly mitigated,
when properly treated as soon as
the first symptoms appear. This
Remedy is famous for its cures of
coughs, colds and Group. 1t is made
especially for these diseases and is
the most prompt and most reliable
medicine known for the purpose. so
