TO PUPILS AND PARENTS.
One of the most potential aids to
success is the proper valuation of time.
To understand the worth of an hour
and to employ so many of them every
day to the best of ones ability, is the
surest way that has ever yet been de-
vised to accomplish results. Those
who thoroughly realize this early, and
conscientiously make the most of their
time, are those who get the best out OF
life aud make the most for others.
The habitual MASTERS of time are not
among those whose names are in the
lists of the successful. Time judicious-
~ used accomplishes wonders; thrown
away, it has rendered inefficient much
talent and great ability.
There is no one so clever that he
can get away from fundamental prln-
ciples; whoever transgresses a law
must pay the penalty, and time that is
wasted can never be recalled. There
is just SO much substance of a life,
gone, that nothing can bring back.
just as there is no man strong enough
to neglect the rules of health, so there
is no man able enough to neglect the
rules of health, so there is 40 man able
enough to make up for wasted time.
With all the progress hat the centu-
ries have made, we as individuals are
still governed by the same laws that
the first man found he must obey.
Time was divided for him into day.
when he must learn his bread by the
sweat of his brow" and night, which
was made for his rest. 1t is in the
hours of recreation that n mans
condition differs from hat of another.
These are covered by circumstances;
but whatever his hours of work are,
they should be used for the purpose
for which they we're intended. The
penalty for their misuse is often severe.

who Intentionally waste their time.
All of US do SO at times unconsciously,
and some who do 80 persistently would
be much surprised to be accused OF
such a fault. The trouble with most
people goes right back to my first
principle-that they do not properly
realize the virtues of an hour, or the
possibilities of a day properly expend-
ed. The immortal Dante did, and
forewarned US long ago that He who
knows most, grieves most for wasted
time" The student in school should
not be quite so prone as he is to let the
hours slip through his fingers, he
should know thoroughly we'll the value
of that of which he is wasting.
Time that is not well divided is some
times as effectually wasted as that
which is idled away with no purpose
at all, for order is and always will be
'.Heaven's first law" Method econo-
mics time, and as time is The capital
of those who follow our profession,
who should be more saving, moro ten
acious of his time, than the student.
Every hour that he saves and puts to
judicious use lea just so much
money, so much more of success to
him.
[ wish that every pupil would ask
himself this question: 'sDo I honestly
and consclentiously devote enough
time to my work, every single day,
and in an orderly and intelligent a
way as / know how to doP" If the an
swer in any case is No, then he would
do something which would be a lasting
benefit to himself and incidentally a
qualification to me personally by try
ing for the month of October to look
carefully after his time, and see that
none of it is wasted. ga man that is
young in years may be old in hours if
he has lost no time"

1t will be of interest to the readers
of the REGISTER who use McElree's
Wine of Cardui in their homes to know
that the sale of this remedy has so in-
creased during the past year. that the
manufacturers have again had to in
crease their capacity by the addition
of another large building. It has often
been said that ar article that find favor
with the ladies is sure to achieve great
success. No more striking example
of this could be found than the history
of Wine of Cardui. From thousands
of ladies letters received by the manu-
~facturers, the following are selected:
From Mrs. Mary Pankowski. SO Rose

Teachers Reading Circle.

Quite a number of the teachers of
Iron county met at Ironton Saturday,
September 30, 1900, for the purpose of
organizing a Teachers Reading Circle.
At the appointed time the teachers
proceeded at once to business, as is
always their wont. Prof. M. w. Daugh-
erty was unanimously elected president
of the Circle, and Miss Leila O'Neal,
Secretary.
The society is not for teachers alone.
1t is a literary society to which any
one may belong, but will be especially
beneficial to teachers.
A programme committee was ap-
pointed whose duty it ia to arrange a
programme for each meeting of the
society. Every member of the society
will be given a special work to do at
these meetings, which will be held
monthly.
1t will not cost you anything to join
the society, but the books which it
uses cost two dollars and forty-fve
cents-this being nothing compared to
the benefit one may derive from them.
Mr.. Lindsay Shelby is agent for these
OOOkS. Like "OS6 dR0utS ne Is d uu-
ent talker, and if once you meet him /
am sure you will not go away without
buying his books and joining the So
ciety.

During the winter of 18a7 Mr.. DANES

During the winter of 1897 Mr.. James
Reed. one of the leading citizens and
merchants of Clay. Clay Co., w. Va,
struck his leg against a cake of ice in
such a name as to bruise it severely.
1t became very much swollen and
panied him so badly that he could not
walk without the aid of crutches. He
was treated by physicians, also used
several kinds of liniment and two and
a half gallons of whiskey in bathing
it, but nothing gave any relief until he
began using Chamberlain's Pine Balm.
This brought almost a complete cnre
in a weeks time and he believes that
had he not used this remedy his leg
would have had to be a~mputated. Pain
Balm is unequaled for sprains. bruises
and rheumatism. For sale by Arcadia

why they should be returned to high
places. Perhaps Joseph is aware of
the fact that the Republican record in
Missouri is such as tits not best to re-
call and refer to. We don't accuse the
Hon. Joe of knowing much, but we
believe he knows that much. Any
way, he didn't tell of ssthe good old
days of Republican rule" and Republi-
can ofice-holders. And that's about
all there vas to Joseph's talk. We
would like to give him a more extend
ed notice but there's nothing more to
tell. After Joe got through Col. Ira
cey of Springfield and E. C.. Brock
meyer of St. Louis each made short
speeches. Col. Tracey is an old Re-
publican war-horse of Southeast Mis-
souri,. and once represented his dis
trict in Congress. Brockmeyer is a
Globe Democrat reporter. He is a
young man and has never attained any
reputatlon-nor likely ever will-save
the notoriety that attaches to having
written and printed more lies during
the past two years than any man in
America = barring Eone. After the
speaking Joe and lis party returned
to the station, boarded the fast mail for
Bismarck where they held forth that
night. Now, on casual glance, the
Hon. Joe doesn't seem to be a very
bad fellow; he's all right, perhaps in
a way, but he's not of the stuff out of
which governors are made. Come out
on the 18th, boys, when our man Dock
cry is here and we'll show you a
genial, affable gentleman, a statesman,
too; q you'll all be proud to vote
for and have as your Governor for the
next four years! But Long Bros.
Palace Shows must not be neglected.
According to agreement they held forth
that night. However, the show was
not of the highest order and the per-
Torrance wasn't the best we ever saw.
They tried it again Saturday night,
and then early the following morning
wendell their way down through the
Shut-ln on the trip to Fredericktown
where they were billed for Monday.
Joe gone, Long Bros. gone, the town
resumed its ordinary peace and quiet
Sunday morning!
