This will give the institution nearly
double the power it had formerly and

Rheumatism Makes Life Miserable.
A happy home is the most valuable
possession that is within the reach of
mankind, but you cannot ENJOY its com
forts if YOU are suffering from rheuma-
tism. You throw aside business cares
when you enter your home and you can
be relieved from those rheumatic pains
also by applying Chamberlain's Pain
Balm. One application will give you
relief and its continual use for short
time will bring about permanent cure.

it, but Miss Plantz was equal to the oc-
casion and acquitted herself with much
credit
Miss Brands selection was "GaZell

by a young girl who was captured by
