suit in wholesale arrests of high school
students who are suspected of break
ing into the building, destroying prop
erty and covering the blackboards with
inscriptions. Furniture was damaged,
books and ink thrown over the floors,
the clock thrown into the street, and
general deviltry indulged. On the
blackbosurds inscriptions read:
"To--with final examinations!
"To--with no senior play!"
"To--with no junior a1op!"
"Hurray!"
which condemn certain regulations
made by the principal, Mr.. Millar,
would indicate that the mischief was
done by some of the students Of the
institution who are dissatisfied with
some OF the rulings of the principal,
such as the final examinations, and the
regulation prohibiting plays and
dances which has been laid down by
the school officer There is much in
dignatien felt over the affair, and
other acts of the kind in the past have
been recalled and have served to in
crease the sentiment which is felt
towards the perpetrators of these acts
of defiance and wanton destruction of
school property.
Principal Millar said: $50 far as !
am concerned there is mo let up until
we find out who did 1T. The spirit of
the school is strong and good for
right conduct and good order, and a
number of the students have expressed
themselves today as heartily against
such malicious mischief"

Ms5 KoteMUonoId,

More than likely you speak the same
words yourself, and no doubt you feel
far from we'll. The cause may be easily
traced TO some arrangement OF the fe-
male organs which manifests itself In
depression OF spirits, reluctance TO go
anywhere or do anything. backache,
bcaring-down pains. fatulcncy, nerv-
ousness, sleeplessness, or other fe-
male weakness.
These symptoms are but warnings
that there Is danger ahead, and unless
needed q life OF suffering or serious
operation Is the inevitable result
The never. falling remedy for all these
symptoms Is Lydia f. Pinkham's Veg
ctable Compound.
Miss Kate Mcdonald Of Woodbridge,
N. j., writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham.
" Restored health has meant 10 much to me
that cannot help from telling about II for
the sake Of other suffering women.
" For long time ] suffered untold agony
with female trouble and irregularities,
which made me a physical wreck, and no one
thought would recover, but Lydia Il. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound has entirely
cured me. and made mo well and strcng, and
feel II my duty TO tell other suffering women
what splendid medicine II is."
For twenty-five years Mrs. Pinkham,
daughter.in-law OF Lydia e. Pinkham,
has under her direction, and since her
decease, been advising sick women free
Of charge. Her advice Is free and
always helpful. Address, Lynn, Mass.

One case heard by the court.
Fourteen cases heard by juries and
thirteen verdicts; one mistrial.
One case was struck off; four were
marked ended" six settled, and twen-
