Marvellous Escape from
Death !
PAINE'S CELERY
COMPOUND
Does a Wondrous Work for a Lady
Who Was Almost Crazed with
Pain and Suffering.

II is well known that terrible rheumatism,
sciatica, and neuralgia cause more helpless
ness, acute suffering and agony, than any of
the other diseases that aftlict humanity. The
great medicinal virtues of Paine's Celery Com
pound make it the only trustworthy specific
for the cure of all forms of rheumatism and
neuralgia. Thousands of strong testimonial
letters from the most prominent people of the
land, prove that Paine's Celery Compound
has banished these terribly fatal troubles when
all other treatment has failed. Mrs. Mar
garet Bethel, of Brainerd, Mimi, after thirty
years of agonizing torures had desire to end
her life, if it was the will of Heaven; she al
most prayed for the time to lay it down.
Heaven directed, she made use of Pane S
Celery Compound, and is enjoying true life
once more. She says:-
For thirty years | have been a great suf-
ferer from neuralgia in the head, and also
with rheumatism in the whole body. began
taking Pane's Celery Compound and soon
found was much better. Before taking the
Compound, my life was such burden that

every two weeks with horrible pain in the
head, back, and neck, until was almost
crazed. | am able to do harder work and
more of it today than for twenty-five years. |

A HAWKING PARTY.
FEW days after Brandon's

Windsor for a few weeks during the

There were ten or twelve of us, in

Hartford and the dowager Duchess of
Kent. Henry might as well have sent
alonga pair of spaniels to act as chap

the truth our old chaperons needed
watching more than any of us. 1t was

the prettfest picture mortal eyes ever
rested on. Her hat. something on the
broad, fiat style with single white
plume encircling the crown, was of
purple velvet trimmed, in gold braid
and touched here and there with pre-
cious stones. Her doublet was of the
same purple velvet as her hat. trimmed
in lace and gold braid. Her short
trunks were of heavy black silk slashed
by yellow satin, with hose of lavender
silk. and her little shoes were of rus
set French leather. Quite rainbow,

Brandon and | were struck dumb
with admiration and could not keep
from showing it. This disconnected
the girl and increased her embarrass-
ment until we could not tell which was
the prettiest, the garments, the girl or
the confusion, but this l know-the
whole picture was as sweet and beauti-
full as the eyes of man could behold.
Fine feathers will not make fine
birds, and Mary's masculine attire
could no more make her look like a
graces of a gazele. Nothing could
conceal her intense, exquisite woman
hood. With our looks of establishment
and admiration Mary's bushes deep

"Well," returned Brandon, eff you

The flaming color was in her cheeks
as Brandon went on: "Your feet are
too small, even for boys feet.
don't think you could be made to look
like a man if you worked from now
till doomsday."
Brandon spoke in troubled tone,
for he was beginning to see in Mary's
perfect and irrepressible womanhood
an insurmountable difficulty fight
across his path.
"As to your feet, you might find
larger shoes, or, better still, jack boots
and, as to your hose, you might wear
longer trunks. but what to do about
the doublet am sure | do not know"

quite little damage was done to the
building as we'll Is to some of the

The house was occupied by the
families of John Anderson, janitor

The total amount of loss to the
occupants is not known at this writ

TO the Teachers Of kandiyohi County.

Heretofore the teachers of the rural schools
have had no distinct organization or repre-
sentation at the meetings of the Minnesota
Educational Association. Since over half the
teachers of the state are engaged in the rural
school work, it is no more than just that they
should have direct representation in sepa-
rate organization, known as "The Rural
School Teachers Section" in the NJ. e. A.
Such an organization has been formed, and
it is the earnest desire Of every county SUPER
intendent to make it a success by having a
large representation from each county.
The membership fee to rural teachers is only
so cents, and this modest sum will entitle
them to their entire proceedings at the Nj. E.
A., which will in itself be worth more than
the membership fee.
Members of the association will have the
advantage of reduced railroad rates, and
rooms can be secured for so cents a day.
Those who wish rooms secured at this
price will kindly advise this office at your
earliest convenience.
The NJ. E. A. has done much to better the
conditions for teachers, both from an educa-
tional and financial point of view and sim
cerely hope that large number Of the teach
ers Of K andiyOhi county will join the associ-
alton and be present at it's meetings Dec 20,
80, and 81.
All rural teachers who wish to join the as
ISOLATION will please send the membership fee
to this office before Dec. 25th. =
