La Grippe.

During the prevalence of the Grippe
the past seasons it was noticeable
fact that those who depended upon
DIR. Kings New Discovery, not only
had q speedy recovery, but escaped all
of the troublesome after effects of the
malady. This remedy seems to have
peculiar power in etfecting rapid
cures not only in cases of La Grippe,
but in all diseases of Throat, Chest and
Lungs, and has cured cases of Asthma
and Hay Fever Of long standing. Try
it and be convinced. 1t won't dissa-

Is your class in Arithmetic sue
cess2 Yes, as to their progress,
decidedly so. They are so inter.
ested that the hours from s to 10
p. m. pass before they are aware of
of it. They are all making rapid
progress, and by the end of the
first month they will have acquired
knowledge Of arithmetic that they
would not lose for ten times its
cost.
Do you propose a thorough ana
lytical: course of short business
methods only?
The course is analytical and thor
ough, but the latest and shortest
business methods are included.
Would You admit new members
into your class at any time? Yes
for the present, the class being di
vided into sections, any that may
come can be accommodated. There
are a great many in Waco now a

do not understand arithmetic
