The issuing of a fraud order
against John Wedderburn, john
Wedderburn d Co., and the Nation
al Recorder, all representing the
same concern, which was recently
disbarred from practice before the
Patent Office for fraud, ends a big
confidence game which was being
played upon the inventors of the
country. Shutting them out of the
mails winds them up, and warns
others.

Indigestion Is often taken for con-
sumption. The word consumption
means wasting away, and dyspeptics
often waste away as badly as con-
sumptives.
The reason people waste away is
because either they don't get enough
to eat, or they don't digest what they
do eat,
Ii the latter is your trouble, take
Shaker Digestive Cordial. This will
help you to digest your food and stop
your loss of flesh.
Shaker Digestive Cordial is made
from herbs, barks and juices of fruit,
by the well-known Shakers at Mount
Lebanon. 1t possesses great tonic
and digestive powers.
Shaker digestive Cordial has cured
many supposed consumptives (whe
were really dyspeptics,) by simply
helping their stomachs to digest theil
food, thus giving them rourishment
and new strength.

ELDoN, Iowa, Oct. 29.-DEAR SIR:
1 am pleased to inform you that oul
engineers are about through making
profiles and estimates of the line they
have just surveyed through YOU
county. AS soon as they are finished
and ready I will visit your people and
make known what we want of you,
people to help us build the road.
When I first visited you i pledged thai
we were building the line on business
principle, would survey,and estimate
before we called for your part of the
contract.
We have a splendid line, and with
your help will build it the coming
summer unless some unforeseen OBJ
stacle, which we can't remove, stands
in our way, but I am happy to inform
you that we can climb anything but
the impossible.
When I get ready to start I will
inform you by letter, and make an
appointment for an evening meeting,
at which / will make our proposition,
and one that will be met by your peo-
pie, as it will be liberal and just.
Remember that building q railroad
is no child's play and takes time to
make arrangements, surveys, con-
tracts and constructio n.
Keep up the spirit and don't let ii
lag, for you have within your grasp
the long felt want and we will give II
to you in due time. Yours for sue

Friday, Oct. 20, was the close of the
second month, school having opened
on the 9Th of September with sixty
pupils present. Two have been en-

tanned at home for some days helping
to haul water and gather corn, the

months has been 5619. These r in
school for work and are doing it in
earnest.
We have here one of the best
schools in this or any other county,
We r striving to have the best, I'M
questionably. We invite other
teachers and schools to enter the
strife. We solicit competition, and
are ready to compare notes at any
time. "Thoroughness" is u motto
and we are "going to fight it out OF
that line," forgetting that there ii
such a word as fail in the English
language.
We have organized the school into
a literary society. meeting semi
monthly on Friday evenings. Ou1
first programme was rendered on the
29th of Oct. and there was not a single
failure. Between 25 and 80 number

with credit to themselves.
The president, MI. Miller Fox being
absent the yice-president, MI. Arthur
Mackey, occupied the chair will
such dignity and credit to himself
that we felt like inviting some of thu
older ones of the community in for al
| observation lesson.
Our patrons here are school people
interested in their children and il
school work, as is evidenced by tn
fact that they refuse to let their chill
dren 60 out to socials and parties il
| the middle of the week.
Hope we shall hear from othe
schools. If you are doing a good worl
let us hear from you. Respectfully
