Public Schools.

A big effort is being made to have
the present Legislature do something
substantial for the public schools OF
the State. The committee appointed
by the various educational bodies to
revise the school laws of the State has
made its report to the Legislature
and is now endeavoring to have the
report favorably considered. The
most important parts of this report
are the recommendations for an in
crease in the State tax for the public
schools and guaranteed minimum
salary of not less than $3.50 for any
teacher. The committee hopes and
expects to see these recommendations
adopted by the Legislature. The
committee has arranged to meet the
Finance and Ways and Means Com
mittees on Thursday, March 3rd, to
urge these and other recommended
tions. Public school officials, teachers
and all friends of the public schools
are requested and urged to be at An
napolis on that day and join with the
committee in presenting the claims of
the public schools for more and
greater consideration at the hands
of the Legislature which recognizesthe
needs of the school and both the po-
litical parties are pledged to their i'm
provement. United effort on the
part of the friends of the public
schools is all that is needed to secure
some measure of relief for them.

SUNNYSIDE.
Snow BIRD.

Hine-tie making is the chief pur-
suit of our people at this time. Max
ing money through tie making and
tie hauling is the leading thought
among our people.
Messrs. Weymer & Ridder are NOV
ing their saw mill, planer and shingle
mill near this place for the purpose of
manufacturing lumber and shingles,
and will soon be able to accommodate
the public.
We believe this to be a good time
for the leading church people of our
community to press to finish the
union church building that has so
long been talked of. Some of our
churches have been without pastors
for quite while, which is very dis.
couraging to many of us. However
that difficulty might be overcome and
spiritual advisers would rally to our
rescue if we could only have build
ing for united people to worship in.
We are glad to notice through one
of the leading newspapers of West
Virginia, that l.. M. Barnard is meet
ing with much success in ministerial
work at Clarksburg w Va, His SER
mons are reported strong and help
full. Large audiences listen with deep
interest to his preaching, and as a
revivalist he is very fine.
We are sorry to learn of the contin-
ued illness of Miss Emma DeBerry.
Her many friends here were hopeful
that change of climate might prove
beneficial to her health and we are
sorry to learn that such has not been
realized.
George Stahl who has for several
years been afflicted with articular
rheumatism, is very poorly.
Several cases of scarlet fever are
reported in the Red House communi-
ty.
Several cases of heart trouble have
recently been cured among our young
people by the affected ones employing
the process prescribed by the law of
our State. Others similarly affected
should do likewise and be happy.

Consumption

Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. " Eat plenty of
pork" was the advice to the
consumptive 50 and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the consumptive needs
most.
Scott sEmulsionisthemo
ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive stomachs.
SCOTS Emulsion is the most
rehned OF fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
SCOTS Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
Of cod liver oil and hypophos-
phites in SCOTS Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has special
action on the diseased lungs.

BIG FELLOW CAN'T COME.
Washburn Loses a 200 Pound Football
Lineman Because of Sickness.

Pearson, the 2OO-pound Oklahoma
football player, who was one of the
best of the new men that Washburn
had on the string for this years team,
will not be in school this year. Word
was received today that Pearson is
sick with typhoid fever, and will be
unable to play. Coach Outland dis
covered" Pearson, and thinks he is a
promising piece of football material.
The loss of TPearson will cause
Washburn to renew it's efforts to land
some other big lff4eTnan, and there are
several promising candidates who are
thinking of entering school One of
them is 240 pound man, entirely new
to football, but livery muscular fellow
who would make a powerful guard.
Another is a former X U. player who
is thinking of coming to Washburn.
Coach John Outland called meet
ing of all the players in town at the
training quarters this morning at 10
o'clock and talked over matters with
them for a while. The boys practiced
passing the ball a little, but no hard
work was done. In speaking of the
effect of the new football rules today,
Coach Outland said:
81 do not think the new rules Will
make any material difference in the
game The rule requiring six men in
the line will cause agood deal of line
shifting, and will result, l think, in
even faster work than has ever been
done before. 1t will be necessary this
year, in my opinion, to have heavy
men behind the line.

WONDERFUL CURL
OF SORE HANDS
BY Cuticura After the
Most Awful Suffering
Ever Experienced.
EIGHT DOCTORS
And Many Remedies Failed
to do n Cents Worth
of Good.

"About 1--WE years ago was troubled
with sore hands, so sore that when l
would put them in water the pain would
very nearly set me crazy, the skin would
peel of and the flesh would get hard
and break. There would be blood flow
ing from at least fifty places on each
hand. Words could never tell the suf-
fering endured for three years. 1
tried everything that was told to use
for fully three years, but could get no
relief. 1 tried at least eight different
doctors, but none of them seemed to do
me any good, as my hands were as bad
WI got through doctoring as when
nrst began. I also tried many rene
dies, but none of them ever did me one
cents worth of good. / was dlscour-
aged and heRrt-sore. / would feel so
bad mornings when / got up, to think
I had to 90 to work snd stand the pain
for ten hours, and often felt like CIV
ing up my position Before l started
to work mornings I would have to
wrap every finger up separately, so
as to try and keep them soft and then
wear gloves over the rags to keep
the grease from getting on my work
At night I would have to wear gloves
in bed. In fact, had to wear gloves
all the time But thanks to Cuticura,
the greatest of all great skin cures.
After doctoring for three years, and
spending much money, a &c. box OF
Cuticura Ointment ended all my suffer-
fngs. It's been two years since used
any and don't know what sore hands
are now, and never lost days work
while using CuticuFa Ointment"

CURES HAY FEVER.
New Austrian Discovery True SPECIFIC
for This Complaint, Asthma and
Catarrh.

New York, Sept. 7.-Continued evil
dence through consular reports and
domestic investigation all tends to
prove that ascatco, the new Austrian
discovery, is a true specific in cases OF
hay fever, asthma and catarrh.
Chronic cases have been pronounced
cured after the patient had taken but
400 drops. Ascatco is an almost taste
less liquid administered in minute
doses of seven drops daily. AS a pre-
ventive of hay fever certain results
are obtained where the patient begins
the treatment several weeks in ad-
vance of the annual recurrence of the
disease. The Austrian dispensary, 6
East Fourteenth street, New York
City. is commissioned to send sample
bottles of ascatco free by mail to per-
sons in all parts of the United States,
on application.

ALL ABOUT A SKILLET.
Two Families at Law Over Its Pos
session.

A forty cent steel skillet is response
bic for two families being in litigation
in the city court.
John Ellis brought a replevin suit
against Caesar and Belle Gerton. He
charges that the Gertons borrowed a 40
cent steel slxilRlet from Mrs. Susie Ellis
and failed to return it. The Gertons
claim that Mrs. Gerton borrowed the
skillet from her sister-in-law, Susie
Ellis, and that originally the 40 cent
steel skillet belonged to the GertonS
and was borrowed by the Ellises and
therefore should not be returned. To
escape family jars of a more serious
nature the controversy was taken to
court. 1t cost a So deposit in the city
court to start the litigation over the 40
cent steel skillet.

Down at the foot of Jackson street.

fotsam. 1t did not drift in by the
high water route, but via the prairie
schooner line. This gang of campers
is a nuisance but as they are not To-
Gated in a residence district they are
not molested, so they have to stir up
something among themselves to avoid
death by ennui. Last night two OF
the women started a rough house
about pet rabbit and pet dog. The
ki-oodle, which belonged to one dame,
insisted upon entering into the joys

nounced with equal vehemence that
