A new departure from common
customs will be made in arranging
for Commencement. 1t is that the
essays read by the graduates receive
neither comment nor criticism from
any member of the Faculty or any
other person. The custom of submit
ting graduating essays to the teachers
for criticism and correction is GUS
tom as old as is the present system of
schools.
When, however, such course is
followed, the individuality Of the stu
dent is apt to be eclipsed by that of
the teacher who makes the correction.
The purpose of the new arrangement
is TO prevent the loss Of individuality.
Whatever the student presents will
be wholly his own, whether perfect
or faulty. The subjects will be peda-
gogical in nature. Normal Badger.

Beware of Otntments for Catarrh
That Contain Mercury,

as mercury will surely destroy the sense OF
smell and completely derange the whole sys

surfaces. Such articles should never be
used except on prescriptions from reputable
physicians, us the damage they will do is
often ten fold to the good you can possibly
derive from them. Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F.J. Cheney & Co., Toledo,
o., contains no mercury, and is taken inter
nally, acting directly upon the blood and
mucous surfaces OF the system. In buying
Halls Catarrh Cure be sure you get the gen
