No Right to UPliness.

The woman who is lovely in face,
form and temper will always have
friends, but one who would be attrac-
tive must keep her health. If she is
weak, sickly and all run down, she will
be nervous and irritable. If she has
constipation or kidney trouble, her
impure blood will cause pimples,
blotches, skin eruptions and a wretched
complexion. Electric Bitters is the
best medicine in the world to regulate
stomach, liver and kidneys and to
purify the blood. 1t gives strong
nerves, bright eyes, smooth, velvety
skin, rich complexion. 1t will make a
good-looking, charming woman of a
run down invalid. Only SOC. at L..

Letter to Teachers.

1t is my wish that you shape your
work so as to conform as nearly
as possible to the course of study
for common schools, as printed in
the Normal course. If you care
fully study it you can tell just how
far each pupil should be in one study
to balance or grade in his other stud
les.
Then if you find that there is an
inequality endeavor during the year
to bring all up to the same level
push the backward studies the harder.
A pupil leaving one school and en-
tering another any where in the state,
now that we have a uniform course of
study and uniform series of text
books, ought to fall readily into a
class of equal rank without having
to take lower rank in any study

but don't wait for that to begin this
work. The change should be gradual
so as to not af1iict school work too

Mr. Isaac Il. Purcell, an old Daviess
