General Holmes has been in Pine
Bluff several days, comforting with
his predecessor, General Thomas
Green, on the matter OF the appoint
ments, and on matters connected with
the forthcoming convention OF the
veterans, which will be held at Rich
mond, Va, dune I. ands3.
The announcement has also been
made that thesCotton Belt will operate
q special train from TeXarkana and
Pine Bluff, to Richmond, going via ST.
Louis, Louisville and Cincinnati, and
thus avoiding the congestion along
the southern route, expected because
of the heavy travel. The special will
leave Pine BlufftMay 20 and will reach
Richmond May 81. 1t is believed a
record breaking attendance from Ar
kansas will be had at the meeting,
considering the decreasing number Of
veterans and the distance to be ira
veled to the convention city.
The appointment of sponsors, maids
Or honor and matrons of honor will
be made later by General Holmes.

pie and children. A good moral play is
often spoiled by one or two vile scenes
which must tend to lower the standards
of the young people who witness them.
Ole teacher spoke of the need Of educa-
ting cur people to an appreciation of the
beautiful in nature, sal certai arts
of our river banks are being used as
a dumping ground for all sorts of ref
use that our school yards should be
beautiful with trees and Shrubs, and
the children should ba taught to take
pride in their school surroundings.
Another spoke of the lack of good
manners or the part of many of the
pupils. The social center meeting might
help there.
Baraboo could profit greatly by TAX
ing advantage of the opportunity Of
fered by the extension division which
sends out lecturers and good entertain
ere.
AS to the high school some of the
teachers said there was tendency on
the part of few of the pupils TO ne
elect their school work during the
year in order to take the work
under a tutor in the summer.
The parents should refuse to
pay extra fees to tutors and
fewer pupils would then waste their
time during the year. The floors should
be scrubbed more than three times a
wear in order to keep down the dust.
The physical training under the direc-
ton of Miss Leora Lewis should be ex
tended to the boys and girls of the high
school. More games and athletics on
larger grounds would be beneficial.

Has Faith in Quick
Remedy for Catarrh
Fisher Bros. Guarantee That Hyome
Will Relieve The Worst Cases of
Catarrh in Barab0O.

When one of the most reputable con
Germs in Baraboo guarantees that
medicine will produce benefit or they
will refund the money, it speaks
volumes for the merits of this remedy.
1t is in this way that Fisher Broq. are
selling Hvomei, the treatment that
has helped 80 many cases of both acute
and chronic catarrh in Baraboo and
vicinity.
Hyomei is not pill nor is it a spray
or a lotion that must be rubbed in. 1t
is an oil, the air of which you just
breathe in your nose, throat and lungs
by the aid of an inhaler that comes with
everv outfit Benefit will usually be
seen from the very first treatment.
This air destroys all germ life in the
air passages and lungs and enriches and
purifes the blood with additional ozone
it supplies. 1t banishes catarrh OF the
head and throat and respiratory organs
Wherever these Smucous membranes
contain catarrhal germs, there Hyomel
will do it's work of healing.
The complete Hyomei outfit is mex
pensive and includes an inhaler and
dropper and sufficient Hyomei for
several weeks treatment.
Remember that if Hyomei does not
relieve you Fisher Bros. will refund
your money.
