Nevertheless, you must be mindful
of the victory to be gained over our

members who have been earnest and
faithful students during their entire
course, and have received several great
honors for their excellent scholarship.
The themes of their graduating ad-
dresses were happily chosen, we'll de-
veloped and delivered in a manner that
won the hearty appreciation of their
large audience. Each had well earned
the diploma then presented in behalf of
the board of education and also the
abundance of beautiful floral tributes
gracefully brought forward by two little
flower girls. The intermediate and the
primary departments of the school had
previously given a joint exhibition that
was largely attended and highly ap-
preciated. So the school year has closed
in a pleasant way. The principal Lottie
Watkins and her associated teachers are
entitled to great credit for their faithful
and efficient labors in our school and
may feel just pride in the good results of
their efforts.

"Do it today" That is the terse advice
we want to give you about that hacking
cough or demoralizing cold with which
you have been struggling for several
days, perhaps weeks. Take some reliable
remedy for it ToDAY-and let that rem
edy be DR.. Botchee's German Syrup,
which has been in use for over thirty
five years. A few doses of it will un-
doubtedly relieve your cough or cold,
and it's continued use for a few days will
cure you completely. No matter how
d~eep-seated your cough, even if dread
consumption has attacked your lungs,
German Syrup will surely effect a cure
as it has done before in thousands of ap-
parently hopeless cases of lung trouble.
