AFTER AN EDUCATOR
WATERFOWL and Madison Had Quite
q Competitive Fight Over a
City Superintendent.


Prof. Kemple. of Madison, the SUI
perinte1dent Of schools, has been
much sought after in the past. ten
DAYS. A committee of the Water
town school board went to Madison
recently aud investigated the work
and ability of Prof. Kemple. The
report the committee made when it
got home was sufficient for the
WATERFOWL board to make a bid for
the services of the Madison superin-
tendent and rendered him the posi-
tion OF superintendent OIL the Water
town 5 hools ut a salary of 81, 500 for
the first year and 81, 800 for the sue
ceeaing years Madison saw the raise
for the first year and made it $3.50.
Prof. Kemple took the situation
under Amusement for a few days
and finally decided that Wateltown

will tll is have one of the most eX-
pensivr superintendent in the state
and at the same tire one OF the best.
WATERFOWL having established a pre-
eedent for paying larger salaries it
is very likely that other cities in the
state Of like proportions will be call
ed upon to do the same thing i'm the
course of a few years.

Not Always Consistent.

Huron Huronite: Senator-.Ganble
voted for the ship subsidy bill and
the Insurgents of South Dakota are
very much opposed to it. Senator
Kittredge also voted for this bill.
Both senators also voted for the pure
food bill. In fact they seem to vote
alike on most propositions which
makes it very hard for the insur-
gent forces in South Dakota to
warn up to Senator Gamble. What
they expect Of Mr.. Gamble is to vote
differently from Senator Kittredge
on every proposition. II he would do
this he would hear their shouts of
approval clear to Washington. The
president also favors the ship subsidy
bill. Representatives Miner of Wis
consin and Humphrey Of Washinp-
ton, both Of whom are on the house
committee on merchant marine and
fisheries. recently had a conference
with the President IN the ship sub
sidy bill and they left the White
House firmly convinced that the
President would lend bis influence in
favor of the bill and they were as
sured by the president that IN his
opinion the ship subsidy bill was
second only in i'm pnrtance to railroad
rate legislation and Panama canal
legislation. The president is cou-
uniting himself to the ship subsidy

WHAT is cATARRH?
scallin Bros. Guarantee a Cure by
Hyomei or Will Refund the

Until very recent years. it was
thought that catarrh vas a disease OF

has proved that catarrh is a germ
disease. and d be cured only by d
treatment that will kill the germ
aud heal The mucous membrane OF
the nose and throat.
Therefore, when you have catarrll,
you can readily see that..if you
want to cure it, you should use
Hyomei, which medieates the all
you breathe. thus killing the catarrh

and raw membrane of the passages

obtained for 30 cents.

they sell, the more convinced they
are that they are perfectly safe in
