June a Season When Health
Should be Attended to.
What Boiling Up the Blood and Shaking
Up the Nerves Does to People-Ths
Nervous system 10 at the Basis OF
All Health Food For the
Brain and Nerves an Abso-
lutte Necessity 1t This
Time.
"June is O month when, no matter
how glad people may be that summer
is at hand, they do not and cannot feel
entirely we'll. A hot day comes and
the mercury goes up TO summer heat,
the next day the wind changes and
brings q change with it. The blood Is
all boiled up, the. nervous system
shaken. People speak of feeling
languid and tired, but in reality dis
ordered condition caused by the
weather"
The above remarks were recently
made by prominent physician to .
merchant who was complaining about
not feeling we'll.
lie: US explain further why this feel
ing OF weakness Is 80 common ut this
season.
There is one great cause underlying
all this, and that is weakened nerves.
The trembling hand. the quick and
sometimes uncertain step, the languid
feeling. the headaches, the sleepless-
ness, all indicate this. If people would
be well they must fret of all look TO
their nerves. They are the basis of ell
health and Of all real strength. This 10
admitted by the beat scientists of today.
And 1t is also generally conceded that
the great modern discovery which can
control the nerves and keep them in
their proper condition is Paine's celery
compound. This scientific oombina-
ton, which 10 the result of years of per-
severance and study by Prof. Phelps
OF Dartmouth, 10 beyond question sn-
per:or to anything that has been DIS
covered for the nerves and blood and
in,,umerabIe troubles which follow the
en-. nges of the season.
The most prominent men of the coun.
try endorse this compound. Commo-
dore Howell recommended IL to Secre-
tsry Blame. DR.. HanDaford endorses
it in his medical writings. Hon. Vim.
A. Cromble, whose business offices are

ton, W.. says:
II have great pleasure, from come
personal and somewhat extended
general experience, in Icing able TO
state that Paine's celery compound IS a
most excellent remedial agent, and de-
serves the popular patronage 1t enjoys"
When tie seasons are changing from
spring 10 summer the health should be
then guarded most carefully.
Tie tcst way to do this - TO use
something that will purify the blood
and strengthen the overtaxed nervous
system.
That such . preparation has been
found - acknowledged by the most
eminent physicians. and by those who
nave used IT with highly satisfactory
results.

lReported for the staunton VINDIcAToR.
MoFFETT's CREEK, Sept. 28.-The far
mers are busy preparing the ground and
seeding, and from the indications there
will be an unusually large acreage seeded.
Notwithstanding the busy times our
good neighbors Of Brownsburg, Rock bridge
Go. found time last week to get up quite
an excitement over warrant trial. For
quite long time great deal of thieving
has been done in that neighborhood, almost
every home having been deprecated upon
in some way. Fowls, harness plows, har-
rows, hoes, &c, going in some mysterious
way and all asking and wondering whittier
they went. Last week Mr.. John Reed lost
during two days his collars. brides &c. The
depleted condition of his horses wardrobe
made it necessary for him to borrow if
possible; calling at neighbors for
that purpose his attention was
attracted to the suspicious move
ments of a colored employe Of that
neighbor. Opportunity offering he made
search and found some of his stolen prop
erty. He at once took the necessary legal
steps and during the public trial following
evidence was found sufficient to i'm
plicate not only the negro but his employer
also, George Miller, who on former oc-
casion had gained notority in that commun-
ity.

At the Opera House.

Rev. Thomas Dixon, Jr., Of New York,
will lecture in the Opera House tonight,
his subject will be Backbone. Mr.. Dixon
became famous by his attacks Oh the Tam
many Hall organization year or so ago.
He has lectured in Petersburg, Richmond,
Roanoke and Lynchburg, and this week
the papers Of those cities publish the
most flattering comments on his lecture,
and the New York papers often report his
sermons in full. In that city he is regard
ed as one of the foremost pulpit orators of
the day. MI. Dixon is native of North
Carolina and was reared in that State. His
lecture will make one both laugh and cry
at the same time. The advance sales OF
reserved seat tickets at Olivier's has been
very good and a large crowd may be
expected.
Paul Kauvar, one Of the most interest
ing and elevating spectacular plays on the
Amerscan stage. will he presented at the
Opera House next Monday night. The
high moral tone of the drama and the pa
triotic, enobling, character OF the model
man as seen in the hero have gained for
the play the admiration of Il critical pub
lie. In Paul Kauvar the Staunton public
will see the highest order of drama, eleva
ting in tone and moral and free from the
element that panders alone to sensational
acting. The scene of the play is laid in
Paris and LIE Vendee, France, at the time
of the French Revolution, and portrays the
intensity of feeling between the aristocracy
and the peasantry; the passions, the ambi-
tions, the emotions and the struggles of
that stormy period.

Mysterious Disappearance Of a Young
Lady.

The Rockbridge News of last Friday
contains the following which will be Of in
terest to our readers ''Miss Matte Baine,
daughter of William A. Baine, who lives
on BrattOn's Run, left the home of her
father very myteriously on Friday, the 9th
of September, and nothing has been learned
since of her whereabouts. She had not
been missed from the house but few min
utes when she was called. No response to
the call was received. Search was very
soon made, but up to this time she has not
been heard of. She left allher best clothes.
and only had her rough working clothes on.
Whether she has eloped with anyone is the
question. No one from the neighborhood
is missing. She is about eighteen years
old. Her mother s maiden name was Paine,
but is dead, and Mr.. Baine is married the
second time. The Paine relatives of Miss
Baine live near Arbor Hill in Augusta
county, Va. Any information given OF
her to the distressed family will be thank.
fully received. Mr.. Baine's postoffice is

the Prohibition party believes in all the re-
forms, but that the prohibition OF the IL
quor traffic was the paramount issue. He
then went into discussion Of the tariff
which he claimed would never be settled as
different things arose at different times to
require attention. The Prohibition party
believed in taxing what man possessed
not what he consumed. He said there was
only five cents difference between the old
parties on this question. On the silver he
said that there was no difference at all and
read the respective pIanks to prove his as
sertion. The speaker closed by saying that
his party was opposed to the Force bill and
any legislation that would tend to curtail
the free will of the people, but there was
no way by which the bill could now he
passed, as the Democrats had four more
votes in the Senate than they did when it
was defeated before.

The City Public Schools,

SKILLED -LABORATORY-THE
INDUSTRIAL FEATURES.
Our citizens have every reason to be proud
of their public schools. In system and
thoroughness they are second to none in
Virginia. In them pupil has an oppor-
tunity to get very liberal education in
deed, and that under skilled and trained
teachers. The Primary and Grammar
grades are all taught by experienced teach
ers who are devoted to their work. After
completing the Grammar grades the pupils
are blessed with the privilege of attending
our High School, which is well equipped in
every particular and in which four teach

Prof. Zerr, who is making for himself a
national reputation as a teacher of Higher
Mathematics and Chemistry.
THE LABORATORY.
Few of our people are aware of the fact
that our public school laboratory is now
one of the best equipped laboratories i'll the
State. One room in the High School build
ing has been fitted up especially for expert
mental work, and the pupils are not only
taught theoretical Chemistry, but are re-
quired to do great deal Of experimental
work themselves. We may add that Prof.
Zerr and his advanced pupils are doing a
good deal Of qualitative and quantitative
analysis work for our Valley Iron compan-
les, and in this way his pupils are having
practical work that will be of decided value
to them.
THE INDUSTRIAL FEATURES.
The industrial features, sewing and car
pentering, which were introduced last year
will be in full progress on and after next
Monday. This work for the present, will
be confined to the Grammar grades, and as
the pupils pass through these grades the
