Attacks of bill ious collie may be prevented in the same way. For sale by all druggists.

 The trustees sale of the bankrupt stock of Frank Hitchcock was very conspicuous for the absence of pur- chascrs, Saturday afternoon. About score of gentlemen and one lady, to- gether with 2 few small boys, were in attendance. Trustee B. H. Mattoon conducted the sale in very quiet but business-like manner, without the aid of licensed auctioneer. x. F. Hitch cock of Woodbury was the buyer 'of nearly all that was sold. The horses, hay, and few wagons, harness, etc., were sold singly and at small prices. One horse brought s3O, another s60, and barn hay at s10 per ton. The stock of hardware, etc., in store and other buildings was started at S2,500, by F. F. Hitchcock and struck of to him later at s2,900. As the total amount of creditors claims is said to be over s2l, ,ooo, it would appear that they will finally receive considerably less than the 25c on the dollar proposition which they refused to accept at the outset.

A FINE ENTERTAINMENT.

The entertainment recently given in the Town hall by the energetic teachers of Calhoun street school de- serves much p&ise. Fifteen dollars was raised for the purpose of buying books for a school library and the state board has doubled this sum. Every teacher should realize the great need of books in the schOolrCom to supplement class work. Few of our district schools are provided with any sort of reference books which the chil dren can turn. The teacher and the text book are not sufficient in these days of push and progress. There is city cry for better teaching in country schools, there should be a clamor for better equipment in the way of books compete with the public schools in our big towns.
