+. w. HARPER G. SON.

You cannot afford to neglect your
eyes, or those of your children. Many
children appear to be backward in
their studies and are unjustly blamed
by their parents for not making bet
ter progress in school when the
trouble really lies with their eyes. I'm
consciously they are straining their
eyes to read from their books or from
the school blackboards and because
their eyes are weak or their vision de-
efective, they do not see correctly and
consequently fall behind their classes.
They should have their eyes examined
at once by F. w. Harper e Son. Both
Mr.. Harper &, Son are registered Op-
tometrists and Opticians, both of Wis
consin and Minnesota. They fit your
eyes and have their own plant for
grinding lens at 21S Second street w.
F. w. Harper & Son are well qualified
to test your eyes and fit them with
glasses. In addition they carry a
complete stock of jewelry.

pastor of ST. Agnes, until 1899.
Then, upon repeated petitions of the
Polish families and at the request of
the Rt Rev. J. Schwebach. Bishop (of

ST. AGNES CHURCH.

There can be found a bit of un-
rivaled interest connected with the
tact, growth and perseverance of the
Catholic Church and Parochial school
in the city of Ashland; noted display
of characteristic energy, persistence
and true work of the Catholic popu-
lation of that place in the erection
and growth of St. Agnes congre.
cation. 10
The beginning of Catholic parish
at Ashland dates nearly as far back
as the beginning of the city. About
the year 1874 the erection of frame
church building was begun on Third
Avenue East, lot donated by DR.. Ed
win Ellis, a pioneer of Ashland. At
this time the work on this building
was necessarily slow, for while the
people were intensely anxious to have
structure of their own in which to
conduct their religious services, suf-
ficient means were not available, and,
as consequence, the services were
continued to be held in the private
houses of the different members of
the congregation. In the winter of
1878, the Rev. A. T. Schuttelhofer at
tended this parish from Medford,
Wis, there being no stationary priest
at that time. During his Passionate a
fair was held and funds raised to pay
the old debt accumulated, and to
place windows in the side of the
building. In the summer of 1878 the
church was plastered and provided
with pews, and in the year following
a steeple was added to. the structure
the city. All this occurred during the
administration of Father Casimir
Vogt, 0. s. F., who had charge of the
congregation for two years, during
which time he endured many hard
ships, difficulties and privations. In
the meanwhile, the growth of the
Catholic congregation keeping pace
with that of the city, the church ac-
commodations becoming too small,
an addition had to be built dur
ing the summer of 1882. Scarcely
had this new addition been completed
when the rapid increase in members
of the Catholic population made it
necessary to secure the present
church and school property. In 1886,
Father Macmillan Klein began oper-
ations for the erection of the present
church and also for that of resi-
dence for the Franciscan Fathers.
The basement was finished and used
for church purposes in November,
1887. During the summer of 1888, the
main building was completed, being
.solemnly blessed by the Right Rev.
Kilian c. F1asch, Bishop of La Crosse,
on the 22nd day of July of that year.
During the fall Of 1888, the Rev Fa-
bian Rechtiene. o. S. F., was appoint
ed to continue the work for which
his predecessors had laid a good and
solid foundation for him to build upon.
looking after the spiritual needs of
his congregation. Under his careful
administration, the parish grew in
strength and numbers, and many waltz
able outside improvements were made
on the church property, the parishion-
ers possessing and manifesting much
Jealous interest in it's behalf. FIR.
Bede Corbarry, o. F. NJ, came to Ash
land in the year of 1888 and is still
the parish priest.
