THE SPIRIT OF WINTER.

The Spirit of Winter is with us,
making its presence known in many
different ways-sometimes by CHEEKY
sunshine and glistening SHOWS, and
sometimes by driving winds and blind
ing storms. To many people it seems
to take a delight in making bad things
worse, for rheumatism twists harder,
twinges sharper, catarrh becomes more
annoying, and the many symptoms of
scrofula are developed and aggravated.
There is not much poetry in this, but
there is truth, and it is a wonder that
more people don't get rid of these all .
ments. The medicine that cures
them-Hood's Sarsaparilla-is easily
obtained and there is abundant proof
that it's cures are radical and perma-
nent.
The patrons of the excellent Craw-
ford steam laundry have received a
pretty calendar from their local repre-
sentative, Merchant r. H. Beers.

Outdoor Exercises.

This morning the pupils of the high
school and also of the Lowell school held
appropriate exercises for Arbor Day on
the school grounds The high school
exercises were brief but very entertain
ing while those of the lower grades were
more varied and consumed considerable
time.
There we're drills by groups Of the chill
dren, which showed careful training and
plenty of singing, recitation, etc. One
descriptive piece by about sixteen OF
Mise Dewey's primary pupils was espec
tally flne. For this the little boys and
girls were dressed to represent daisies,
with the petals surrounding their faces
Whom the words OF the song made the
howors die in the fall, the little people
shut their eyes and nodded their heads
but when the spring rains came, the
flowers sprang up, and concluded the
piece which delighted everyone who was
present.
Many visitors we're present.

Arbor Day Observations.

This has been Arbor day, and all over
the state there has been general obser-
vance. In this city the schools have
been given over to appropriate exercises
and have made the day practically hol-
iday 80 far as lessons have been con-
cerped. Some OF the teachers have
thought it unwise to declare holiday
on the ocoa sion, as the sentiments OF the
day are then forgotten and it's observance
by appropriate exercises will have great
deal more lasting impression If the time
is devoted to planting trees and doing
other things which will beautify the
school grounds.
Some OF the grades have taken the oay
for a picnic and to make study OF na-
ture away from the school grounds whefe
there 10 no idea OF work and yet Wnere
there is knowledge to be gained tnat Will
materially benefit the pupils IN tneir
school work.
Some of the smaller children went TO
the Little Book cliffs to spend the Gay
and others went to No Thorougnfare
canon with lunches, etc.

fvme. The beauty of the new scenery,
the startling electrical effects and the
newly written choral and instrumental
