Wood For Canes.

Oak and hazel have always held their own. Folly was almost an equal favor ite. The ground ash has constantly been used by country folk of all degrees having any association with horses or cattle. At one time it was fashionable in London simplex munditiis, just the plain supple, elastic stick, but with a gold band around the top to give it 8 mark of distinction. At present the ha- gel seems fashionable. Those who use it are not in the majority of cases, we surmise, aware of the magic lore always associated with the hazel and it's nuts, as to which much might be written. Orange wood and lemon wood find favor with some.
 Curious sticks there are, too, if this be not "bull, made of huge cabbage stalks from the Channel islands. The blackthorn has always found Ireland true to it as the needle to the pole, while some part of Scotland likes the rowan. This is 8 tree of much magical legend. Twigs of it nailed on cowhouse or stable act as does the horseshoe else where. and the herd boy or girl often carries rowan stick with bit of red thread attached to ward off from the cattle the evil eye, warlocks or witch s.-Gentleman's Magazine.

brought up by DR.. Race Mr.. Shelton
said that he thought it was nothing
but courtesy due Mr.. Martin to await
his return, rs he had been largely in

and selecting the brick.
This proposition was objected to by
G. r. Morehead. who said he was in q

The ancients believed that rheuma :
tism was the work of demon within a
man. Any one who has had an attack
of sciatic or iufiammstory rheumatism
will agree that the infliction is de-
moniac enough to warrant the belief.
berlain's Pain Balm would cast out
demons, but it will cure rheumatism,
and hundreds bear testimony to the
truth of this statement. One applica-
tion relieves the pain, and this quick
relief which it affords Is alone worth
many times its cost. For sale by all
druggists.

used in the Mexican school was not de-
tsrmined. Q. r. Morehead and others
favored switching to Newman and Car
roll.
The architect was instructed to call
for bids for roofing the Mexican school
and to supply desks for the new schools.
The desks will be purchased from a

No date was set for the next meeting
and it was decided to elect teachers on
the first Monday after the schools
