Whereas the teachers of Washington
County have been in attendance at the
normal for the two weeks past, dur
ing which time it has been a eason
of constant social pleasure and mental
improvement, and since it has afforded
them n of those rare opportunities of
preparing for more efficient work in
the public schools of the county, and
from a deep sense of the obligations
that rest upon them as the grand mont
tors of the cause of education in their
midst and from the love and gratitica-
ton that arises in their hearts toward
those who have been ever ready TO
lend a helping hand, therefore be it
thanks to Profs. J. A. Andes and j.
w. Trotter, who have SO worthily and
efficiently conducted the normal, for
having given us SO much wholesome
instruction in science and art of
VcdCiihBi anu lOl having ~ hIhuiy iC
garded us all through our normal, and
that we sincerely thank, also, any
others who have assisted in the instrct-
ing or the music during the institute.
Resolved-That we remember Prof. +.
T. Watts, our County Superintendent,
with most benignant feelings for the
earnest efforts he has just put forth in
u behalf, to make this institute one
of unusual benefit to the teachers.

Bradshaw for the pains she has taken
to serve the institute as Secretary, and
that we commend her for the able man

the work.

to the citizens of Jonesboro for their
encouraging presence during the time
we have convened.

the Hon. Sheriff of the county for the
use of the Court house.

Washington County, petition the hon
orable County Court of said county, to
reflect Prof. +. T. Watts Superintend-
ant for the next term.
Resolved-That we the teachers who
have been in attendance at this excel
lent institute go out from it earnestly
resolving that in the future we will
heartily endeavor to fill the positions
which we may occupy in the great edu-
c~ational field as nearly perfect in
every way as we possibly can
Resolved-That a copy of these reso-
lutions be sent to n or more of the

Nothing Strange,

Intelligent people who realize the
important part the blood holds in keep
ing the body in a normal condition, find
nothing strange in the number of dis
eases that Hoods Sa%rsaparilla is able
to cure. So many troubles result from
impure blood that the best way to treat
them is through the blood, and it is
far better to use only harmless veget-
able compounds than to dose to excess
with quinine, calomel and other drugs.
By treating the blood with Hoods
Sarsaparilla, scrofula, salt rheum and
what are commonly called "humors;"
dyspepsia, catarrh, rheumatism, neu-
ralgia, consumption and other troubles
that originate in impurities of the blood
or impaired circulation can all be cured.

tits not at all a pleasant task fer us
to dun any one, and nothing but abso.
lutte necessity drives us to do it, but it
is hard to conduct any business with
out pay, and there are a number of
names on our books that are in arrears
for from one to three years. The pa.
per we have furnished to these parties
has cost us just as much as has those
furnished to those who pay up prompt
ly, and as we are compelled to pay the
cash for paper and labor it is but fair
and right that all who owe us pay up.
We do not want to stop any paper, as
that does not pay off old debts, and if
any are so poor as to be unable to pay
n dollar a year, and still want the
paper, we will give it to such, provided
they will notify us of the fact.

Sickness is not a fatilty.

Sickness is not a fatilty.
There is no virtue in patience with
disease or weakness.
Il always feel ashamed to be SICK
says a famous preacher. "In nine
cases out of ten | know it is due to
carelessness; l get well as quick as l
can, almost ashamed, as if had been
caught in some culpable act"
Think of it that way if you want to
live long. With the great modern
remedy ,Paine's Celery Compound, the
remedy that makes people well, within
the reach of every sufferer, there is no
excuse for moping around with a long
face, casting a shadow over the bright
lives around one.

Deafness Can not he Cured

by local applications as they can not
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
aud that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inhamed
condition of the C lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
intlamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation is taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars: free

Should any n visit this historic
school at the present time he would
witness an activity no less refreshing
than surprising in these hard times.
The old college building for some years
used as a dormitory for the young
ladies is being reconstructed and i'm
proved throughout. Halls are being
constructed lengthwise through the
building thus making it far more con-
venient and furnishing perfect ventila-
ton. The rooms are to be plastered
and papered anew and a two story
veranda is to be built ON the north
side. There will also be a veranda on
the west end. A kitchen addition is
being made with pantry and every
convenience. The building is thus to
modernized and made commodious
throughout. This work will cost not
less than $4,000. The Board of Trustees
have decided to institute the CO opera
tive boarding system whereby students
a get table boatd at between SO and
SO per month. This will be conducted
in the college boarding hall and will
be for the benefit of the young men as
well as the young ladies. Students
who can, may furnish provisions, such
as may be needed, from their homes
and will be allowed market price for
same to be applied on their board.
Young ladies who desire to do 80 may
help at waiting on tables, sweeping
and washing dishes for which they will
be paid stipulated amount; thus in part
%defraying the expenses. This will make
it possible for almost any boy or girl of
health, pluck and energy to get an edu-
cation at this time honored seat of
learning.
A dormitory for the Industrial De-
partment is in process of erection and
will probably be ready for occupancy
sometime in November. 1t is to cost
about $1,000, and will be a model of
convenience. A new church, to cost
not less than $4,000, is also being built
which will be modern in its style and
arrangement and 80 constructed as to
be s%erviceable as a chapel on COM
mencement and other occasions, when
needed.
Such strides only attest the real
strength of this institution which has
been so long serviceable to church and
State. Its roots have only been taking
deeper hold all these years. This is
its Centennial year-one hundred years
of bona fide history marked by achieve
ments and traditions dear not only to
many a heart in this no less historic
section, but to the friends of education
everywhere who will not allow their
judgments to be %prejudiced by their
interest in local institutions. Like the
century plant it car afford to be quiet
and modest in the calm consciousness
not only of its worthy lineage and pres
tige but its latent vitality and sure
promise of blossoming and fruitage.
So this period of speedy growth means
we believe the entering upon an era of
increased usefulness and efficiency.

only worth ~ cents. We asked him
il that was true what the other 81
cents consisted OF. He said It was
fiat. Then we suggested that the fat
must make the one dollars worth just
AS much as any other dollar. He
said he had never looked ut tie mat
ter in that light. He further ven
tured to say that if wages increased
everything else would increase. aud
be would be no better oil, and his
mortgage would still remain unpaid.
To this we demurred, and asked him
to make few figures. At present
he receives $1,000 salary. He paid
$50 interest, spent $40 for living ex-
penses. and paid 5000 on the ,uor.
tgage. In this manner with no bad
luck, he would be out of debt in
nine years. We said. double your
wages and double your living ex-
penscs, and see how the portion will
stand. Salary $4,000. Interest $50
and living expenses $l,4S0 would
leave eco to pay on the mortgage,
which would clean the whole debt up
in four years and have enough left to
buy celebration suit of clothes.
We asked him il he was willing to
stand by fool idea and spend nine
years of his life in paying off Il NOR

Danger Ahead.

The recent utterance OF Secretary
Gresham on the seal fishery verdict
ought make every lover of American
independence cause advocating an
International monetary conference.
MI. Gresham declares the decision of
the arbitrators in this seal fishery case
is above and beyond the power of
Congress. If this is true, and We
should consent to an international
monetary commission their decision
would be equally binding upon this
countay. Suppose commission
should be convened with full power
to settle and determine the status of
international money, this country
would be represented by such men as
Sherman, Allison, Bayard or other
paid attorneys of America and Euro
pean plutocracy. Would they fail to
betray the common people and bind
them to the chariot wheels of an IN
ternational despotism from which
there could be no release? No one
familiar with their past history will
doubt it. This international business
is threatening danger to the pros
perity of this country and should be
ended at once. Let America take
care of Americans, and let the bal
ance of the word take care of itself.
This is the doctrine to be taught now
and the only one to releave US from
our present perilous position. The
reform press should give due notice
to the people Of this impending dan
ger and make 1t factor in the CON-
ing campalgn.-Nati"nal Watchman.

law, and for the unfoldnent of cor
rect financial principles.
Create and no not borrow.
To attempt to carry on business
to profit without abundent money
for debt paying purposes is like sled
ding cut logs in the winter when the
snow is in patches. Like the fish
gasping on the bank for the water
just beyond its reach, and yet 1t is on
selid bank. Like a powerful loco
motive, with coal only sufficient to
raise water to a boiling point, and
not to develope steam. Like a farmer
giving the use of his teams free to
others and then hiring the use OF
horses from those whom he lets Lis
team go for nothing.
Thoughtless men say that Of the
great pile of bought and paid for
silver bullion in the United States
Treasury, the government is entitled

portions of the silver be coined.
In the name of God and suffering
people, why not coin every ounce Of
all that silver bullion into full legal
tender, and thus make it the equiva-
lent of gold coin? We, the people
have paid for it, now We demand

A Dollar that IS Worth a Dollar.

he had ever handled or seen "a dollar

took from his pocket q silver dollar,
and said it was only worth 49 cents.
We asked him il it was for sale at
that price and whether or not he
could furnish any number at the
