there was no church at Goodland.

believe that there is a man, who is a

School Notes.

The past two weeks have been quite
eventful for Ironton School. The
teachers are speaking of the interest
and good work that is being done by
the pupils, and the pupils are talking
of the new and interesting work in
their rooms. On the whole, school is
starting off nicely for a good years.
work.
For the past two weeks interest has
conferred, more or less, in the Tri-
County Fair at Piedmont. The first
week saw the work of last year
brought together for the exhibit.
There was quite a bit Of work that
could not be obtained, but quite a
worthy exhibit was selected. This
was sent to Piedmont the first of last
week. Those who saw the work com
mented very ~favorably on it. The
Judges of the fair also thought 1t was
good, as the number Of prizes receiv-
ed shows. We have not yet received
the official award of prizes, but have
the ribbons for four first places and
six second places. The work thai
took prizes will be given next week.
Six notebooks were sent to the
State Fair at Sedalia, and are being
exhibited this week. We hope to gel
honorable mention, at least, there.
The value of the prizes won at Pied.
mont Is about S15.
On "Wednesday, the second day Of
the fair, Ironton basket ball team
played Piedmont high school team al

the Ironton team, but the score was
very satisfactory, being 18 to 0 In fav-

All kind of Underwear at Browns.
All the Ingredients Used in Our
Sanitary Bottled Soda Water
are Wholesome Foods.

Water is q fundamental food, and
more of us drink enough of it. The
"cures" that are made at the various
mineral springs are due not so
much to the medicinal value Of the
salts in the particular water, but to
the fact that the people who go
there drink great quantities of WATER
and thus flush out the impurities from
their blood.
~Sugar-one of the greatest of foods
lis absolutely necessary to the main
tenance of human life. 1t supplies
the carbohydrates that furnish heat
and build up fatty tissue. The lack of
sufficient sugar frequently leads to a
craving for stimulants. Few of us
| consume enough sugar, and children
especially should be permitted to
drink all the sweetened beverages
they crave, because sugar in connec-
ton with carbonated water is more
easily digested than when taken in
the raw form as in loaf sugar, candy,
etc.
Flavors. Nearly all flavors used in
giving the delightful tang to soda
water are tonic in their action. Ginger
is a tonic. The roots and herbs used In
making Root Beer, Birch Beer, Sar-
saparilla, ETC., include Sassafras, Win
tergreen, Cinnamon, Sweet Birch
all beneficial tonics. Lemon and
orange flavors are, made from the
peel of those wholesome fruits.
Science has recently achieved what
used to be thought impossible-the
art of making soda water favors di-
rect from a number of fruits, includ'
ing Strawberries, Raspberries, Black
berries, Pineapple, Cherries, ETC., in
stead OF from synthetic fiavors.
