LYCEUM SEASON HERE.
Five Exceptionally Good Attractions
Have Been Secured.

Five exceptionally good attractions
have been secured for this seasons
lyceum course. For several years
the Ladies' Aid society of the NJ. +.
church have stood behind the lyceum
courses. on account of their educa-
tional value in promoting higher
ideals and providing entertainments
Of an elevating nature. If the receipts
from the sale of tickets and admis-
sions do not meet the cost OF h SER
les, the ladies make up the deficiency.
II there is a surplus, it goes toward
the support of the church.
The ladies will be out in a short
time selling season tickets. A con
siderable sum must be raised, because
the numbers are high class and ex-
pensive. The best entertainments that
have come to American Falls the past
three years have been the lyceum
numbers. The great Parlette, who
was here last year and whose lecture
was an inspiration to both young and
old, will be here again this year. His
lecture alone Is worth the price OF Z
season ticket to anyone who desirei
70 be anybody, or fill an honorable
though humble. plane in society. Tit
ladies do not wish anyone to bul
tickets merely TO help the church, bu
for the good hat it will do all Wit
attend the entertainments and lee
lures.

not recommended
The cleanest and best seed is none

seed with unbroken smut balls, use
the open tank method and skim these
off as they rise to the surface.
If clean Sec is used the sack meth

A new solution of formaldehydt
should be prepared each day as II

To prepare IA stock solution of for
