FORTIFICATION IN WARFARE.

The value of adequate for tifications
in case of attack are admitted even
by those most ignorant of the rules of
warfare. 1t is also oblivious that all
such measures are the result of fore
thought and preparation. To put off
building the necessary defenses until
the enemy Ia actually in sight would
be the veriest folly, yet a majority of
people neglect Notifications that are
equally as important in an individual
sense. There exists substantially a
state of ending war between
nature and disease. At certain sea-
SONS the extreme atmospheric condi-
tions throw a decided advantage to-
wards disease, hence we have
our siekly seasons, notably the sum
mer and fall. 1t is strictly in accord
with the prescribed rules of warfare
to fortify the body In advance of this
sickly season. The vital organs, the
kidneys, liver, stomach and bowels
should be cleansed, stimulated and
strengthened SO as to resist the enc
my when he appears.
To purify and tone up the system

has been shown in many years OF

A SICK WOMAN
Should Consult the Best Physician
Possible.

If all the sick mothers, invalid
daughters and diseased sisters IN this
broad land would write to DR.. Hart
man when failing to find relief else
where, no pen could describe the ben
eft that would follow. There are 80
many women, especially married
women, who drag themselves YEARLY
around from year to year without any
particular disease, and yet miserable
beyond description. They ache and
throb, growing more nervous, tired
and debilitated every day. For this
class of sufferers Pe-ru-na Is the most
perfect remedy in existence. 1t re-
lieves, it soothes, it quiets, it strength
ems and no tired, overworked woman
in the land should be without Peru
ma in the house for a single day.
Those wishing q complete descrip-
ton of female diseases, their causes
and cures, should send their address
to the Pe-ru-na Drug Manufacturing
Company, Columbus, Ohio, for a free
copy of "Facts and Faces" a book
showing what DR.. Hartman's free
treatment has done for a multitude of
invalid women.

Fox School.

This is q school that ranks second to
none as a country school. They en-
pioy such teachers as Frank Bruce,
Alb. Berry, Craighead, etc. The school
term for years has been ten months.
Friday of last week were held their
closing exercises. There we're six
prizes given, three Of them to the
three best speakers under twelve
years of age, and the other three
prizes to the three best speakers over
twelve years. The house was crowd
ed and, although there were over forty
Rotations, there was no evidence of
WEAKNESS on the part of the people.
I never saw a country school DOM SO
beautifully decorated, and the bright,
happy girls were more beautiful than
the roses. They possessed charms far
beyond the flowers, viz: bright intel
iects and warm loving hearts for all
they thought was good and pure and
noble in man. The beautiful present
made the teacher at the close of the
exercises showed that they thought
the man who had directed their steps
for three years up the temple of
science possessed these bright jewels
In character.
Mr.. Berry goes to another county, 1
believe, at sos per month. He had
been getting $50. Teachers of Au-
drain, 1 urge you to study, read our
school journals, read our publications
upon school government, school man
agement, upon methods, and read his
tory. Qualify yourselves in such a
way that you will be enthused and
then you are prepared to enthuse
others. 1t is impossible for an empty
head to enthuse bright boys and girls,
nor even dull children. am satisfied
that if all our teachers YER full of
energy, patience and enthusiasm there
would be very. few dull children. The
Fox school is a striking illustration of
the truth of this assertion.
