Augusta Teachers Meeting.

The teachers meeting held last Friday
afternoon, was well attended by the edu-
Gators of Augusta.
Miss Bean of I'll village district gave q
very interesting class exercise in English
grammar Her class, composed of Is
pupils from the ninth grammar grade,
showed marked ability in handling SEN
fences with Independent and dependent
clauses A strong feature of the exercise
was the manner in which the class dis
posed of the adjective and the adverbial
modificrs. 1t is sometimes difficult in
complex sentences to determine the cor
rect use and meaning of these modifiers.
Miss Beams method of conducting reel
tation is worthy of consideration by those
who are to adopt teaching as a vocation
in the future.
Mr.. Chamberlain gave brief history
of the origin of the English language,
starting at it did from lndo Europe and
spreading westward through Europe. 1t

of the words which belonged to the old
language. He also gave an interesting
account of what he saw in the school line

THE BUSINESS MANS LUNCH,
Hard Work and Indigestion so
Hand in Hand.

Concentrated thought, continued in, rob.
the stomach OF necessary blood. and this Is
also true of hard physical labor.
When five horse-p power engine is made
to do ten horsepower work something is
going to break. Very often the hard
worked man coming from the field or the
office will bolt = his food in few min
utes which will take hours to digest. Then
too. many foods are about as useful in the
stomach as key of nails would be in a
FIRE under boiler. The ill-used stomach
refuses to do its work without the proper
stimulus which it gets from the blood and
nerves. The nerves are weak and ready
to break" because they do not get the
norrishment they require from the blood.
finally the ill-used brain is rlorbidly wide
awake when the overworked man at.
tenpts to find rest in bed.
The application Of common sense in the
treatment of the stomach and the whole
system brings to the busy man the full en-
ioynneut of life and healthy digestion when
he takes DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets to
relieve a bilious stomach or after too
hearty meal, and DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery to purify, enrich and
vitalize the blood. The pellets are tiny
srgar-coated pills made of highly concen-
trated vegetable ingredients which relieve
the stomach of all offending matters easily
anu tHolouShiJ' my hCSu oui " so1>NAA
for short time to cure the biliousness,
constipation and slothfulness, or torpor, of
the liver; then the Medical Discovery "
should be taken in teaspoonful doses to in
crease the blood and enrich it. 1t has a
peculiar effect upon the lining membranes
of the stomach and bowels, toning up and
strengthening them for all time. The
whole system feels the effect of the pure
blood coursing through the body and the
nerves are vitalized and strengthened, not
deadened, or put to sleep, as the so-called
celery compounds and nerve mixtures do
but refreshed and fed on the food they
need for health. If you suffer from indi-
gestion, dyspepsia, nervousness, and any
of the ills which come from impure blood
and disordered stomach, you can cn,e
1oursezf with DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery which can be obtained at any
drug store in the country.

Where Science ends and Com
mon Sense should rule. Persons
of sedentary habits are liable to
indigestion or dyspepsia These,
in turn, will bring on nervous
disorders, kidney complaints,
constipation, etc. This is es-
pecially the case with merchants,
students and scientists. They
will give you the exact dimen-
sions of Jupiter, the distance
from Saturn to the sun, to a foot,
but they cannot or will not tell
themselves what will cure this
train of disorders.
For ailments resulting from Sc
dentary habits-inactivity of the
liver, habitual constipation, etc.
the entire medical fraternity
of Europe and America almost
unanimously recommend the gen.

/, STARCHING AND IRONING.
Cow Swiss and German Laundresses n
Their Beautiful, Glossy Linen.

Foreign laundresses generally use the
hest rice starch for all articles that require
hard starching and excessive gloss. This
is first mixed with little cold water to
the consistency Of thick cream Then boil
ing water Is added while the stirring Is
continued steadily. For sitter purposes
mix quarter of pound of rice starch as
before, then add tho necessary quantity oil
boiling water, previously mixed with
teaspoonful of pounded borax, lump OF
sugar and piece of pure white wax as
largo as nut. stir quickly the same way
all the time tho boiling water is being
added.
If necessary, starch the fronts, etc, two
or three times. They will look all the bet
ter. Starch all the parts that require 1t,
wiring them out hard and clap well in the
hand, after which roll each thing sepa'
ratoly in q clean dry cloth tightly for
couple of hours. When ready for tho iron
ing, spread the article out on the board,
rub the starched part with coarse, clean
cloth, then with an ordinary iron proceed
with the operation. 1t is important thas
the board should not be too thickly COW
cred. The surface on which the shirts etc.,
are ironed ought not to be too soft. The
best thing is piece of thip blanket, tight
ly stretched covered with1inen.
Collars and cuffs arc ironed first on the
wrong sido with a very hot iron, then on
the right side, They should then BIO pus
aside, though still limp, whilc othe-s are
being treated in the same way. BY thia
time the iron will have cooled sufficiently TO
finish the things Off Lay them fat on the
board, rub them quickly with slightly
moistencd cloth and iron at once heavily
and rapidly, leaning principally ON the
tip of the iron and going as evenly as pos
sible backward and forward over tho sur
face to insure the same amount of gloss
all over. Mark tho hens or seams by press
ing the side Of the iron against them.
The final polish for cuffs and collars
consists in pulling them from under the
hot clean iron. curving them, as 1t is done,
SO that they roll easily. In this state stano
them in large tumbler and leave them
there till quite cold. They will then b.
beautifully stiff and glossy. The iroe
should be wiped with waxed cloth.
