THE COURTEOUS LIFE.

Women must themselves set the example Of
courtesy TO each other if they wish men TO treat
them courteousy. The fact that some women do
not do this has passed into a proverb and an
women as a class judged by the failings OF
those who thoughtless. Indifferent or heartless
During the last twenty years thousands OF women
have entered business life in the United States by
so doing they have virtually said: Il am man
equal" From this fact some men argue that they

Educational Campaigns in West Virginia.

Educational interests in West Vir-
GINA have not been so keenly awak-
ened for many years as they have
been within the last few months by
the educational tours arranged for by
State Superintendent of Free Schools
Thomas G. Miller, the last series Of
which has Just been concluded.
Forty-eight of the ffty-fve counties
of the State have been reached since
last April in some special way, either
by educational speakers in general or
by special addresses at county insti-
tutes, and Supt. Miller expects to
reach the other seven before the close
of the year.
Generally the people are giving
more attention to school matters and
the report is almost universal that the
schools are better this year than for
merly. This seems to be true, par
ticularly in attendance. The inter-
est is most manifested in library
work in the district schools and many
books are being read by pupils. AS
a class the teachers are doing better
work, and among them there is a gen.
eral desire for a better preparation
for teaching, and the frightening of
terms and improvement of salaries are
operating as an inducement to hold
the better class of young men and
women in the profession.
For these educational campaigns
Supt. Miller secured some of the best
and most able men, who are identified
largely in the educational work of the
United States. Capt. E. Miller, who
is most popular educator in the State
of Iowa, conducted the tour in the
north central part of the State, and
DR.. Boone toured the southern section
of the State, and Supt. O. K. Kern,
of Rockford, Ill, conducted the tour
through the Kanawha, New river and
Greenbrier valleys, along the main
line of railway, leaving it, however,
to touch some very important places
along the way. Prof. NJ. P. Shawkey,
accompanied Supt. Kern through the
Kanawha valley. Supt. Miller was
on all tours in part.
Supt. Miller has given ten weeks of
this year to these campaigns and he is
delighted with the outcome. The
people have been stirred up and set
to thinking on these questions Of i'm
provement in the educational work
and the result will be that it will do
great deal toward improving the
conditions in the State.

THE VITAL CENTER
No Man Stronger than his StOmach-Let
Mi-O-na Strengthen your Di-
geStive System.

The stomach is your vital center.
No man is stronger than his stom-
ach.
Every organ of the body is sus-
tanned and nourished by food which
is converted into nutrition in the
stomach and conveyed to every part
of the system in the form of blood.
For this reason, when the stomach
is strengthened with Mi-o-na and is
able to convert the food into nourish-
ment, all other organs soon become
well. This explains many cures Of
heart, liver, or kidney disease in the
cases where Mi.o-na is used.
1t is the most wonderful health re-
storer known, and is sold by Rein
hart's Pharmacy under an absolute
guarantee that it costs nothing unless
it restores health Just one little
tablet out Of 50-cent box of Mi-o-na
for few days, and you will soon see
a great Improvement in your health.
