When Paine's celery compound is
used, members of the household rec
ognize the signs of health gradually
stealing over the face of the one that
was pinched and worn by pain and
sickness.
Paine's celery compound isa perfect
nerve food. 1t quickly feeds weak
ened parts, removes all irritation, al
lows the rest from pain they need SO
badly, and restores all the myriad,
deep-lying nerve parts all over the
body to healthy, quiet working.
This is the way this remarkable in
vigorator makes people well.
Reports of it's marvellous working
come from cities as far apart as New
Orleans and Montreal. There is not
a not a town large enough to stand on
a railroad map that has not cOntri-
buted some word of warm praise and
gratitude to the greatest nerve and

10Th century.

The Department Commander has
issued general orders No. +, concern
ing the National Encampment at
Louisville, which designates that a
special train to be run by the Mime
apolis q st. Louis Railroad will be
known as the headquarters train
This train, which will consist of
through Palace sleepers, Pullman

missary car, will leave Minneapolis
about 10 a. m. Sept. 9th, arriving at
Louisville in the forenoon of the 10th.
A well stocked commissary car will
provide lunches and refreshments for
the comrades without charge. These
advantages, taken in connection with
the fact that rates for tickets on the
Headquarters train will be no higher
than via other routes, makes it desir-
able for all to 60 together that way.

The Lake Crystal Union has this to

the oldest inhabitant has there been
as many snakes seen as this year.
They crawl about the streets along
the edge of the sidewalks, and places
near the lakes where the water has

many places snakes and toads live
happily together. seeming. contented

BETTER TRAIN SERVICE.
Commercial Club will Take Steps to
Secure it.

A special meeting of the Mankato
Commercial Club is called for tomor-
row night to consider the question of
securing better train service for Man
katO. A change in the Minneapolis
& St. Louis train service is to be made
so as to take effect on Sept. 18th.
This is the time to act to secure a
time favorable to the business inter
ests of Mankato, and an effort WILDE
made to secure a train coming into
Mankato from Waterville or Fari-
bault, if not from Redwing, arriving
at about 1000 a. M, and departing in
the afternoon or evening. This will
allow of trade reaching this city from
Madison Lake, Elysian, etc.
An effort will also be made to secure
the restoration of the Sunday train
from the twin cities on the Omaha
road. This was taken off at the be-
ginning of the financial depression
two years ago, and it seems as though
the time had come for it to be re-

The burdens of life are not equally
oorne by men and women.
Women too often suffer from some
weakness that never was intended for
them by nature.
When trouble or hard work or eX-
element have rendered the nervous
system so morbidly wide-awake that
sleep is denied, the Over-tired brain
must be helped to get quickly back to
its healthy normal condition or seri-

Paine's celery compound accom-

1t at once begins to regulate and
equalize the overweight nerves and
to restore to them their lost tone.
1t brings to the disabled, debllitated
nervous tissues the peculiar nerve
food which they must have to build

A GOOD BEGINNING.
The Public Schools are Already
Crowded.


The school board held its regular
monthly meeting last night. Super
intendent Kenaston made a report of
the attendance in all the buildings,
the total being 1,445, against 1,463 at
the close of September last year.
There are 128 in the high school.
Several of the rooms were reported
as in crowded condition and it may
be possible that another teacher will
be needed in the high school and
also one in the West Mankato build
ing, where there are sixty pupils in
one grade. .a..
1t was decided to transfer Miss
Lizzie Lewis from the fifth grade
room of the Pleasant Grove building
to the new part, transfer Miss Eva
Smith to the second grade room
from the new building, and transfer
the second grade to the room vacated
by Miss Lewis. Miss Belle Dredge,
of Lake Crystal, has been elected prin-
cipal of the Pleasant Grove school,
and is at her post, There were
several other applicants. She is a

eleven to four. Two more games will
be played, either both today or one
today and one tomorrow. The Brain

The Mankato club will soon leave

HE IS ENTHUSIASTIC.

John NJ. Thompson, representing
the Simmons Hardware Co., of St.
Louis, is in the city for few days at
tending to the company's business. In
speaking Of the present corn crop he
says, the estimate is somewhere be-
tween two billions of bushels and two
billion five hundred thousand bushels.
He says if this whole crop was loaded
in cars with 100000 pounds to the car,
and the cars placed end to end, it
would reach 1900 miles in straight
line, and that the value Of it is greater
than that Of the combined wheat and
cotton crops of this country for the
year 1895, and that st. Louis is the
hub of the corn center or corn section
of the world, and that the hardware
business was never as good as it is
just now. Just imagine, he says:
1--WE have sold this year over one hun
dred thousand bicycles, and at no time
during the past five months have we
been able to keep up with the de-
mand. Just now hardware and cut
tlery is beginning to boom, and we
are running night and day to keep up
with orders"
Mr. Thompson likens Southern
Minnesota to the garden of Eden, and
says when he goes in to see mer-
chant now, and ne begins to grumble
or talk hard time, he gets out of his
store as quick as he can and hunts up
the man that can appreciate good
times and Gods country.

TO LlBERATE FREUND.

Attorney Lorin Cray went to Blue
Earth City today, and will appear be-
fore the court In an effort to secure
the release of Jacob Freund on bail.
After the preliminary examination,
the court is permitted where the evil
dence seems to justify it to release on
bail prisoner who is charged with
murder in the first degree. The bail
will undoubtedly be placed at a high
figure, if bail is permitted at all.
Freund has been very anxious to get
out on bail, as any one in his position
would naturally be.

her but she had not enough money to
pay for it, and took Mrs. Ratloff's
skirt to wear to a wedding, and
brought it back afterwards. In

home is in Faribault, where her STEP

ed against her and she was discharg-

vice by Judge Shissler.

Joseph Smith Takes Stock From a
Sidewalk Restaurant.
Joseph Smith was charged in the Police
Court yesterday with petit larceny, in
taking ham. four dozen eggs and some
Hamburg steak from the stand run by a
boy named Joe Lastro at Fourth and K
streets.
Lastro and his mother testified that
Smith insisted on being taken into part
nership and brought raw ham and left
lt at the house where the Lastros live.
He was told to take it away, and that no
partner was wanted. He claimed that
young Lastro had asked him TO 90 into
partnership, and refused to take the ham
away. He atterward went at night to the
boys stand and asked him to pay 50 80
for his ham and some Hamburg steak
that he laid on the counter, and when
told to take his steak away he took almost
all the stock in the stand.
Smith claimed that he had been taken
in as partner by the Lastro boy, and had
furnished lot of steak, spareribs and
ham. AT night he was told he was not a.
partner, and when he asked to be paid
for his stuff was told that he would be
paid the next night. Then he took the
stuff for pay.
He was found guilty and will be SEN
fenced to-day.
