With each passing day during

farmers face has been stretching
until it now reaches from ear to
ear. The gentle showers and favor
able temperature have caused corn
to spring from weak, sickly con-

state, while oats and other crops
seem to have prospered equally
well. The gathering of hay is now
in progress. All in all, as farmer
said yesterday, there's no room for
complaint, as the outlook for
reasonably good crop of everything
is very favorable at present.

TWENTIETH KANSAS MASCOT.
r. L. Howe Was in Philippines and
China.

Frederick L. Howe, the mascot o.
the Twentieth Kansas regiment in the
Philippines, and Of the Ninth infantry
In the Boxer trouble in China, was In
Abilene. He has been In Kentucky

Howe joined the Twentieth Kansas
in Topeka in 1898 and went with
Funston's men to the Philippine is
lands. He was only IA years old.
He had run away from his home In
Marysviile, Ky. He was too young
to enlist, but succeeded in going with
the Twentieth Kansas as its mascot.
When the Kansans we're ordered home
he allied himself with the Ninth in.
iantry, which went to China in June,
1900. In the first advance on Pekin
the boy was shot through the head,
and his injuries made him deaf and
dumb. He went from China to Samar
with the Ninth and was one Of seven
men who survived an attack by the
Bolo men on company Of the Ninth,
September ~, 1901.
Having more than his share Of war
experiences, the boy made tour Of
the eastern continent and returned to
the United States last fall. When he
reached Marysville he learned that his
parents had left and he has been
travelling over the country in an ei.
fort to find them. E. F. Carr, the
United States recruiting officer,
vouches for Howe. Carr was a mem
Der OF the Sixth cavalry during the
war in China and had seen the boy in

VIEWS ON SCHOOL WORK.
Supt. Shirk Of Newton Gives Some
Suggestions.

Supt. d. F. Shirk Of Newton has just
been to Atlanta, Ca. attending q
national convention Of school super.
intendents. When be came back he
gave the Newton school board these
suggestions improving the schools:
First, by the introduction Of more
supplementary reading In the lower
grades. MIR. Shirk saw work In read.
ing that astonished him during his
visits to the Atlanta and St. Louis
schools and be ascribed much OF the
proficiency shown by the pupils to
the larger amount Of supplementary
reading they are given. Mr.. Shirk
recommended to the board that, grad
ually as the board sees fit, additional
supplementary reading be purchased
and introduced into the schools.
Second, the employment Of special
teacher Of drawing and writing.
Third, being thorough In the school
work without marking time" fig
uratively speaking.
Fourth, by Incorporating manual
training, including weaving, sewing,
cooking, and wood work into the
curriculum Of our schools.
Superintendent Shirk also recon-
mended that the upper halves Of the
doors opening into the school rooms
Of the city be made of glass, SO that
persons In the hall can see what is
going on in the school rooms. This
arrangement has been adopted with
excellent effect on the discipline OF
The schools in St. Louis and other
eastern cities.

EASY WAY 70 ouRE cArARRH.
Breathe Hyomei and Kill All Ca
tarrhal Germs. Money Back If
If Fails" Says J. M. Gleissner.

There is no dangerous stomach
drugging when using Hyomei. The
healing and aromatic balsams which
compose this wonderful treatment
are breathed through neat pocket
inhaler that comes with every 81 out.
fit.
In this way, the germ-killing and
health-giving Hyomei penetrates to
the most remote cells OF the lungs.
1t searches out and kills disease germs
in the air passages Of the head, throat
and nose, soothes and heals the irri-
tated mucous membrane, and abso-
lutely drives catarrh from the system.
Such remarkable results have fol-
lowed the use Of Hyomei by the best
people in Abilene, that j. NJ. Gleiss-
ner has the greatest confidence in its
power to cure catsrrh. He believes
in it 80 thoroughly, that be will give
his personal guarantee to refund the
money IL 1t does not cure, the pur-
chaser to be sole judge.
This is an unusual offer and the
first time that any medicine or treat
ment for the cure Of catarrh has been
sold in this way. II 1t cures, the ex-
pense is triAing, while II 1t fails, the
cost is absolutely nothing.
II you are fortunate enough not to
be troubled with catarrh, tell your
friends Of J. N. Gleissner's offer and
get them to take advantage Of it.
