ADJUSTMENTS.
Whites Boston Octette to Appear
in the Entertainment Course.

in the Entertainment Course.
AS one of the numbers of the
entertainment course this year we
have engaged the Boston Octette, a
combination of artists such as one
might expect at a musical festival,
so far as ability is concerned, but
rendering a program such as would
be thoroughly appreciated and en-
joyed by any concert audience. Such
an array of artists could not be
here for a musical festival short of
the price we pay for the entire
course, so that our patrons are the
gamers in every way.
In addition to Mime Gertrude
Holt, prima donna soprano, and
Harold Trip, the noted tenor, we
have the Anna Eichhorn trio, COM
posed of Anna Eichhorn, violinist,
Katherine Halliday, 'cellist and
Natalie Kinsman, piano soloist, ac-
companist and contralto. The
ombination also includes the IA
nous Schubert quartet of Boston,
an organization well and favorably
known for twelve years among our
concert goers.

= SCHOOL NOTES.
instruction Being Distributed on
Agriculture.


In line with the present policy of
the schools, to emphasize those sub
jects that will be of most value to
the child when he leaves school and
to make elementary education less
bookish, fifty copies of a publica-
ton, School Agriculture, are
distributed semi-monthly among the
upper grades, and especially in the
rural schools. This paper is devoted
not only to elementary agriculture,
but to domestic arts and manual
training as well. The study of ami
NAL and plant life also comes in for
a share of. attention.
A six-page wall chart of especial
interest to boys and girls who live
on the farm has been placed in each
of the rural schools.
1t is the desire of the directors
and superintendent that the rural
school houses be used freely for
neighborhoOd meetings. These
schoolhouses should be used as CEN
tiers where the people may assemble
for social, literary, musical, religious
or other programs, and where they
may discuss farming, politics, edu-
cation or any other interest.

CURES CATARRH.
Antiseptic, Healing, MenthoIatum
Quickly Kills Catarrh Germs.


Quickly Kills Catarrh Germs.
Catarrhal troubles can be cured
only by an antiseptic treatment that
kills both the catarrhal germs and
soothes and heals the irritated mu-
cous membrane.
Apply little Mentholatum to the
nasal passages at night and while
you sleep the treatment does it's
healing work and at the same time
kills the catarrhal germs. Its ae-
ton is almost immediate; the first
nights treatment gives you great re-
lief.
You can buy a rs cent jar of
Mentholatum from any druggist
with guarantee of money back if it
does not do all that is claimed for it.
This is the most economical treat
ment for cataTrh that was ever
known as one package will last two
weeks or more. Every home should
have a jar of Mentholatum as it is
invaluable for all cases of infama-
ton, soreness, etc.
