. Wheeling, W. Va, May %, 1908.
Some years ago while at work, I fell
over truck and severely injured both
OF my shins. My blood became poisoned
as result, and the doctor told me
would have running sores for life, and
that IT they were healed up the result
would be fatal. Under this discouraging
report l left off their treatment and re-
sorted to the use of S. S. S. Ir effects
were prompt and gratifying. It took
only q short while for the medicine to en-
tirely cure up the sores, and I am not
dead as the doctors minated, nor have
the sores ever broke out again Some II
years have elapsed since what I have de-
scribed occurred. Having been so signally
benefited by its use can heartily recom-
mend it as the one great blood purifier.

A competent corps Of workmen, un-
der the direction of President Nelson,
is busily engaged every day now get
ting the College grounds and build

from next Monday.
From roof to basement in every
room and hallway, carpenters and
painters, plasterers. plumbers and
paperhangers, are doing all their
workmanship can accomplish to rem
der the Collegesone Of the most mod

institution Of which the people of VI
nita must feel proud.
In Prof. Nelson, tho College has at
its head man Of executive ability
and one who, when aided by the splen-
did faculty he has called to his assist
ance, cannot fail to attain high de-
gree of success. Already more Einter-
est is manifested among our people
than usual and we predict, that when
the public is invited out to note the
improvement that has been wrought,
as Prof. Nelson says they will be
shortly after school opens, that their
enthusiasm will awaken with feryen-
CT and unanimity not known before.
A number Of highly recommended
applications for the position Of music
