WELLS & RICHARDSON Co,
Gentlemen - Just word in favor of
Paine's Celery Compound, hoping it may catch
the eye Of some afflicted person, and they
may receive the same satisfactory benefit.
Some IS years ago I had a combination of
malaria, chlls and fever, and grip, which con-
tinued for year or more; meantime / lost in
weight about 90 pounds, trying different medi-
ciues and doctors with unsatisfactory results.
Paine's Celery Compound was recommended,
and, after using a little 1 began to improve,
gaining about a pound week. In year /
had regained 80 pounds of the lost weight and
good health, and have been well man ever
since. Yours truly, GEORGE T. MORSE.

tltude for the study. 1t is not true

see word but once, and it stamps
itself 80 iudelibly upon the mind

member of tho commission, He
thinks that one way TO rectify the
trouble - to take the auditors office
ont OF tho primary. lie thinks that
men of bonor and qualified in every
way can be gotten for the auditors
office without the primary method,
and the advantage would be that
they would not be hampered with
campaign pledges, etc, and could
get the property returned for its
right value. Auditors nominated in
the primary must sometimes make
inclination to do right secondary to
necessity to be tactful or discreet
III order to get back into Office. An.
other remedy suggested is to raise
revenue by taxing franchises. This
matter admits of discussion.
There are two State house commits

Is Spelling A Lost Art2
Atlanta Journal. |

hllHllH JOurnRl
! Out Of II total of 250 freshmen who
recent! entered Northwestern Uni.
versity, at Evanston, Ill.,, 11S were
obliged to enter the spelling class,
because they misspelled 20 or more
words out of 200 in quite ordinary
list. These freshmen had each taken,
We are told, Il complete preparatory
course in public and high schools.
A ST. Louis paper, shocked and
grieved at this record, addressed in.
quiries to presidents and professors
of ten leading universities, asking the
proportion Of "bad spoilers" in their
respective institutions and classes.
The answers we're enlightening.
The University of Illinois reported
2O per cent bad spoilers; the Uniyer-
sity Of Minnesota, 30 per cent. At
Princeton, the bad spoilers from 10
per cent of the student body. Yale
reported it's spelling standard as
"high," and 80 did Cornell. Colum.
bia School of Applied Science used
the word "atrocious," and the Mass.
achusetts Institute of Technology re-
ported the percentage Of bad spell
ers as "large." Wesleyan university
replied that the spelling at that in
stltutlon was "f"ir.' The president
of the University of Missouri, wrote:
81 do not know the percent of bad
spoilers in the University of Miss
ouri, but it is much larger than it
ought to be. 1t is a noticeable and
| lamentable fault of the common
schools in neglenting 10 meke spell
ing apeclal study. There IL too
much word reading. When the com.
mon schools return to tho old-fash-
ioned spelling class there will be an
improvement"
