A Teachers Meeting.

A teachers meeting not of the usual
type occurred on Wednesday evening at
the home of.;he Supt. and Mrs. n. II.
Savage. The teachers gathered, not
at the steln command of their chief,
but in response to dainty poeuical IL
vltation which surely must have bee n
the work of the better half of the Saw
age household. The teachers respond
ed to man. No that is not right, they
responded to woman, and their only
regret was that each of them was not
two in order to get the full benefit of
the pleasant evening enjoyed by all.
Games of a highly intellectual charac-
ter such as were becoming to the dig
nifty of the Denison teachers were
INDUCED in and we expect some of the
youngsters would have been surprised
if they coulG. have seen how much lie
young folks the teachers could act
when occasion permitted. Mrs. Savage
was assisted in receiving and enter
tanning her guests by Mrs. G. L. Voss,
Mrs. Gaylord Weeks and Miss Gillmor
A delicious lunch was, served, and the
evening but served " aefehtuate the
cordial relations whf6hFextst between
Supt Savage and the other teachers of
Denison.
The invitation sent to the teachers
read as follows:
Mr.. and Mrs. Savage now take leave

Dew drops sparkle in the morn
There's rnStlng of the corn,
The sunshine is cleaning every day;
There's mothers tender face
At the generous old farm place
On the dimpled, prairie hills of Iowa.
Cho:-There's alight out on the prairie.
1t is shining through the night,
And to me it tells story
That in memory is bright;
And its lonely beam is beckoning.
To the hearts that love best,
Who are are seated round the lamp glow
In that farm home way out West
There's tugging at my heart,
And the tear drops gently start
AS fondly think of scenes now far away
OF the simple, homely Joys
OF those happy girls and boys
In that little, old farm home in Iowa.
In the roomy. old barn loft,
Where the hay was warm and soft,
Oh how quickly there the happy hours die
glide;
Or when with laughter gay
We would romp and play all day.
In the tangled woods down by the river

The old school house in the hills
sum of all our childish ills,
With pleasure I remem Der every task:
Ger that we'll trod prairie track
oh how gladly I'd go back,
Just to feel my dear old comrades tender
grasp
Where the cottonwood trees
Are a whispering in the breeze.

IT IS ALL
RAISED
Library Subscription
Completed.
List of Those Who so Gener-
ously Contributed to the
Fund.

The $500 necessary to secure the
donation of 81 900 for the purpose of
public library has been raised and we
give below the list of those generous
citizens of Denison who have made pos
sible this great benefaction for our
town. The amount had to be raised
by the first of May so there are still
some days remaining before the offer
would have been cancelled. The COM
mittee is not to be content with the
amount already subscribed. A number
of our citizens have expressed their de-
sire to give lesser amounts and no one
is to be deprived of the privilege. The
more that is raised for this object
which is certainly one of the most mer-
itorious for which money could be con-
tributed. the better it will be for Den
ison and its youth. Aside from the
purchase of the books for which the.
money already given is to be used,
it will be necessary to furnish new
book cases and other library equip
ment. Let this amount be forthcom-
ing from those who have not given as
yet, so that the original amount may
be spent wholly for the purpose intend
ed. The Review points with pride to
the list printed below-not with per-
sonal pride, but with pride in Denison
and its generous and public spirited
men.
There should be no unnecessary delay
in selecting the library and purchasing
the books. The Friday club has on
hand nearly $3.50 which is to be ex-
pended for books and by next fall Den
any city of its size in the state of Iowa.
No one should refuse to subscribe to
the fund simply because the amount
required of Denison has been raised.
1t should be a matter of honest pride
now that Denison is in the library bus
mess to raise as much as possible and
surely enough should be raised to pay
for the necessary equipment and in
stallation of the new books. 4

HEART DISEASE.
Some Facts Regarding the Rapid In

Heart trouble at least among the
Americans, is certainly Increasing and
while this may be largely due to. the ex-
element and worry of American bust
ness life, il is more often the result of
weak StomachS- Of poor digestion
Real organic disease is incurab1e: but
not one case in a hundred Of heart
trouble is organic.
The close relation between heart
trouble and poor digestion is because
both organs are controlled by the same
great nerves. the sympathetic and pneu-
m0gastric-
IN another way. also the heart is
affected BY the form of poor digestion,
which causes gas and fermentation from
half digested food There is a feeling
Of oppression and heaviness in the chest
caused by pressure Of the diStended
fering with their action: hence arises
palpita1ion and short breath
Poor digestion also poasons the blood,
making It thin and watery, which irri-
tates and wealxens the heart.
The most sensible treatment for heart
to insure the prompt assimilation Of
food.
This can be done by the regular use
after meals of some safe, pleasant and
effective digestive preparation like Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets. which may be
found at most drug stores, and which
