COULDN'T WEAR SHOES.

Sumpter, ILL.,, June 10.--Mrs. ]. B.
Flanagan, of this place, had suffered
with Dropsy for fifteen years. She
was so very bad that for the last
three years, she has not been able to
wear her shoes. She had doctored all
the time, but was gradually getting
worse.
Last winter Mr.. Flanagan, who was
very much discouraged, called for
some medicine at Mr.. j. j. Dale's
drug store in Carmi. Mr.. Dale per-
suaded him to have his wife try
Dodd's Kidney Pills, and he bought
six boxes. His wife used five out of
the six, before she was entirely
cured. She is now as sound and
well as ever she was, completely re-
stored to health, and free from any
symptom whatever of Dropsy.
To say that Mrs. Flanagan is
pleased at her wonderful deliverance,
does not half express her feelings,
and she and Mr.. Flanagan are loud
in their praises of Dodd's Kidney
Pills, and of Mr.. Dale for recommend.

The fact that Dodd's Kidney Pills
cured Mrs. Flanagan of such severe
case of Dropsy, after the doctors had
given her up, has made them the
most talked-of remedy ever known in
White County.

HOW MEN MAKE LOVE.
Some Do II In n GrandiIoquent Man
ncr md Fail to Make an
Impression.

All sorts of men in all kinds OF
conditions have made love to me.
While l won't say that loved them
all in return, they-that is those
who sent me fruits and flowers and
bonbons, not diamonds and gems,
succeeded best with me. Stage wom-
en- don't want big things; it is the
trifes that touch their hearts, says
Marie Dress.er, in ST. Louis Post
Dispatch.
Handsome men have never succeed
ed with me. They are generally too
overbearing and make you feel as if
they did you favor by making love
to you. The little gentlemanly things
man does win a woman's heart.
/ like man who takes his hat off
in my presence and the cigar out Of
his mouth the moment l come near
him; who rises from the table and
remains standing while / am being
seated.
like the man who divines when I
feel draft and gets up to shut the
window even if it is in a garden.
The man who wants to win my
heart mustn't do these things only
for few weeks, while 1 am getting
interested in him, but keep right on
doing them.
The straightest way to a woman's
heart is by small and gentlemanly
courtesies. 1t never fails. The man
who showers diamonds and costly
presents upon a woman is usually
very destinations about it. The fell
low who comes along with bunch
of flowers or bonbon box makes
you feel as if you did him an honor
to accept his present. He'll win
where the other will get the cold
shoulder.
Love-making is an art which wom-
en- understand much better than men.

Your hunger will be fed; your sickness

Supt. Arthur Farquhar has decided
to again hold township teachers and
patrons meetings. They were very
successful last winter and he hopes to
even have them more so. 1t gives the
patrons and teachers and County
Supt. a chance to get close thorough
understanding. Patrons should give
closer study to school work than
they have in order that they may give
more intelligen support to their legis-
lators than of old. The State Supt. is
q firm believer in more consolidated
district school and if it could be man
aged it would be of practical benefit
to every child in the county. Under
the present system, the teacher comes
into the community and opens the
winter term, with children just begin
ming to the mature minds of the older
pupils and must hit all their needs as
far as possible. 1t is almost impossible
to get any recitation over ten minutes
long and in that time, much of which.
is spent in going and coming from
class. No teacher can possibly give an
intelligent hearing to the older ones
in this time. A consolidated school
would, if graded be 50 that all could
have a long recitation, in which more
good could be accomplished than any
time in the past under the old regime.
Patrons should attend these township
meetings and give their full support
to the teachers and superintendent.

A Little One Gone.

Monday little Irene Packard, daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Hite Packard,
passed from the cares and tolls of this
life to the "great beyond" being TAX
en- by that dread disease, membranous
Group. She was two years old last
June and the sunshine of the home
now so drear and lonesome. She was
buried Tuesday in the cemetery in
Audubon, but as it was contagious
disease no funeral was preached. The
little one was 30 bright and beautiful
and so full of life's young blood, that it
is impossible to realize she is gone.
She was well up to Sunday but when
the disease struck her it soon carried
her away. No one could go and give
them that consolation they SO longed
to, nor sympathize with them after
the child was borne away. And now
when the gloom of eventide watts
down, they will miss the prattle and
girllsh pranks until the time when
the healer of all things get them used
to it and even then there will always
be vacant spot, where the little one
nestled.
We wish through the columns of
your paper to thank the kind friends
and neighbors, who so kindly assisted
us through the sickness and death of
our beloved husband and father.

Monday morning one of the first
things to interest the public in Gray
was a horse race, which took place al
most before breakfast. The Shetland
pony belonging to Lou Babcock was
matched against the big running
horse of Austin Linn, for 100 yards.
The first race was not satisfactory and
the second race was run, both times
the pony being the winner.
