 The climate of Flagstaff is truly ideal for mental exertion. The equipment of the Normal is complete in every detail, and every teacher and prospective pupil is most cordially invited to enroll III the third session of the summer school at the Northern Arizona Normal.
 By enrolling for the summer session and remaining through the regular session which opens in September, a pupil can do one and one-fourth years work dur ing twelve months, commencing July Sth, 1907.

 The Training School at the Normal will be in session from 9 to 11:3O o'clock each day during the summer session. This will afford splendid opportunity to those who may wish to do work or make observations under most favorable and advantageous con- dltions.

Sparrow Struck Girl in Eve.

While playing in the street with sew
eral other children, Rose Watkiss, 6
years old, Of Wilmerding, suddenly
screamed and clutched her face. At her
feet lay a bunch of feathers. An Eng
lis sparrow darting about the street had
struck the little one in the eye and had
fallen stunned to the pavement. The
bird was picked up by some of the chill
dren, while the older girls gathered the
screaming girl in their arms and carried
her home. The child's face was bruised
by contact with the bird, and from a
deep cut on the eyeball it was evident
that the sharp beak Of the sparrow had
struck the eye. A doctor was called,
who made an examination Of the wound,
but owing to the nature of the injury
could give little hope of saving the sight.
Such case is said never to have been
reported before.-pittsburg Post.

ties or q feeling of weight and fullness?
Do not make the mistake of thinking
that these are diseases in themselves
and be satisfied with temporary relief.
This is the way the nerves give warm
ing that they are breaking down, It,
simply means that the blood has become
impure and cannot carry enough nourish-
ment to the nervesto. keep them healthy
and able to do theTEork.
Rest. alone, will sometimes give the
needed relief. The tonic treatment by
DR.. Williams Pink Pills, however. pro.
vents the final breakdown of the nerves
and the more serious diseases which
follow, because the pills act directly
upon the impure blood, making it rich,
red and pure.
