IS the only cure for Poison Oak, Poison
Ivy, and all noxious plants. It is CON-
posed exclusively of roots and herbs. Now
is the time to get the poison out of your
system, as delay makes your condition
worse. Don't experiment longer with
salves, washes and soaps-they never cure.

Eldora, April r.. At the regular

rendered his resignation and requested
that same take effect at once. The
board accepted his resignation. 1t is
rumored that Professor Doron will en-

true Iowa will lose one of her oldest as
we'll as one of her most energetic and
capable educators. Professor Milo Hunt,
of Oskaloosa, was elected superintend-
ent of schools for next year Professor
Hunt is q Hardin county product Of ex-
emplary moral and social standing, a
man young in years but splendidly
equipped and qualified for the position
by years OF hard study and preparation
He has an enviable reputation as a
teacher behind him which coupled with
his energy and laudable aspirations
should place him among the educational
leaders of our state. All the teachers
from the first primary up to and includ-
ing the eighth grade were reelected al
the same salary. 1T seems probable thai
some changes will be made in the hisf
school for next year.
