considerable weight to it.

was found in the bed by his side

After The Fire-What?

We have a competent Board of
Education ready and willing to
serve the interests of the school
district. 1t, we believe, also stands
ready for a command to advance
along the line of education. A
few years ago the question of a
"High School or Not" was voted
upon negatively, Since then some
of us have talked advancement
and this year, rs never before, the
congested condition of the Ironton
school has appealed to right think
ing people for relief. To our
many inquiries and solicitations
the bare fact faced us that the vot-
ers must decide it. In other
words, "the people do rule" in
this matter as in others. We had
almost despaired when an unac-
countable conflagration rendered
our building unserviceable for a
time. And now, during the in
torim, we, who favor a call to bet
ter things should ''get busy" with
the people and create a stronger
sensation in favor of a cause which
lies close to a parents heart and
which is worthy the interest of
every citizen. The rooms of the
building could be put in shape-a
temporary stairway constructed,
and school called within a short
time. Then. let us agitate the
the building of an addition, to-
gether with a heating system for
the entire building. These are
necessities, and when the question
is properly understood u vote
will declare us no longer behind
our sister counties educationally.
Get together, fellow citizens, on
this question, and vote for the in
tellectual advancement of this
communicative making of train
ed minds for future responsibili-
ties. K

From the age of three months until
fifteen years old, my son Ovens life
was made intolerable by eczema in its
worst form. In spite of treatments the
disease gradually spread until nearly
every part Of his body was quite raw.
He used to tear himself dreadfully in
his sleep and the agony he went
through is quite beyond words. The
regimental doctor pronounced the case
hopeless. We had him in hospitals
four times and he was pronounced one
of the worst cases ever admitted.
From each he was discharged as in

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory If the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use SO much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trou.
bic can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of its great
