SIMPLICITY.

II power were mine to WELD control
or time within my heart and soul,
Saving from ruin and decay
What I hold dearest, ] should pray;
That | may never cease TO be
Wooed daily by expectancy;
That evening shadows in mine eyes
Dim not the light OF new surprise:
That ! may feel. till life be spent
Each day the sweet bewildermeut
OF fresh delight in simple things
In snowy winters, golden springs,
And quicker heart-beats at the thought
OF all the good that man has wrought
But may | never face a dawn
With all the awe and wonder gone,
Or In late twilight fail to SEQ
Charm in the stars old sorccry.

Pinkham Medicine Company of Lynn,

Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, made from roots and herbs,
actually does cure these obstinate dis

The Evil Eve

The "evil eye" was one of the many
superstitions that at one time beset
humanity I'm the time of it's ignorance
1t was believed throughout the middle
ages that certain persons had the pow

subjecting you to the fascination which
unopposed, blighted and destroyed you.
Amulets Of various forms were used
against this much dreaded power as
well as certain practices, such as laugh

viewed Mr.. Hanson's work. These
gentlemen also visited several other
upper Michigan cities and decided
evidence of what Mr.. Hanson is
capable of.
'Owosso is a city of 1000 and
employees so teachers and is a beau
tiful city. Their school buildings are
among the best in the state and Mr..
Hanson and family are to be con-
graduated on securing this excellent
position which however, came to him
unsought.
"Mr. Hanson came to Manistique
six years ago from Alma, Mich,
where he was superintendent for
four years. The schools of this city
under his administration have been
brought to a very high efficiency.
There are few if any schools in any
city in the state Of the size of Manis-
tique that can be compared with it..
The domestic science and kinder
garten departments, the laboratories
gymnasium and the commercial de-
partment were all worked out under
Prof Hanson's regime. There are
now employed in the schools of this
city, 81 teachers. One new school
building, the Lakeside school has
been built recently and plans are be-
ing perfected for another similar
building on Riverside. The high
school has doubled in the six years
and has enrolled many nonresident
pupils. The graduates of the
schools of this city who have gone
out into the business world are re-
fiecting credit on the city and their
alma mater.
'Mr. and Mrs. Hanson have been
identified with the musical and social
life of the city since their residence
here and will be greatly missed by
their large circle OF friends in all
walks of life. AS lodge man, Mr.
Hanson belongs to all of the Masonic
orders and was elected high priest
this year of the chapter. He is a
lover of outdoor life and is a strong
advocate of the gymnasium and the
building UP of the physical as well
as the mental organism. He is a
stickler for promptness, business in
tegrity and faithfulness in all things
"The city of Owosso is to be con-
graduated in securing Mr.. Hanson
and his esteemed family"
