THEINFLUENCE
of the Mother shapes the course of unborn generations—goes sounding through all the ages and enters the confines of Eternity. With what care, therefore, should the Expectant Mother be guarded, and how great the effort be to ward off danger and make her life joyous and happy.
MOTHER'S FRIEND
allays all Nervousness, relieves the Headache a ni s, and N a usca, and so fully prepares the
system that Childbirth is made easy and the time of recovery shortened—many say "stronger after than before confinement." It insures safety to life of both mother and child. All who have used
Mother'sFriend say tiiey will never be without it again. No other remedy robs confinement, of its pain "A customer whose wife used 'Mother's Friend,' says that if she had to go through the ordeal a pain, aud there were but four bottles to be obtained, and the cost was $100.00 per bottle, he would Lave them.''

Every teacher is required to attend and become a member of the Montgomery County Teachers' Association sessions, to be held at Wabash College chapel on Nov. 20 and 27.
This year's set of "Young Peoples' Reading Circle books cost by mail S10.70. Teachers are not required to buy these books, however. If some of their books came in the regular line of study it would be but fair to purchase them, but outside of such books teachers are at liberty to use their own judgment in making a selection for the school library.

THE SAME OLD STORY.
Told On the Streets of C/awfordsville as Well as Elsewhere.
Some things you cannot, tell too often. Repetition gives them strength. The same old story is pleasant to hear, When it. brings happiness to home, Brings joy lo the alllicted. Tells how burdens can be raised. Mow the back can be relieved. A the pains ami aches removed. I'roves how easily it's done. Crawfordsville people tell this story. Friends and neighbors talk of It. They toll about their kidney ills, How they sutl'ered—how the cures came.
Whatthev lliinlc of I loan's Kidney Pills. Here is wli.it a citizen says: Miss A. Atkinson, of 004 W. Market St., sayb: "1 had been troubled with a weak back almost all my life, which was caused from disordered kidneys. At times 1 had such pains in my loins that 1 was almost laid up. The last of June, ls'.lT. 1 had one of those bad spells and it was at that time I first learned about Doairs Kidney Pills, went to Moffett A-. Morgan's drug store and got a box, taking them according to directions. I soon felt better and by the time I had used the last pill I was entirely relieved and have not been troubled since. I have recom mended Doairs Kidney Pills to a num ber of my friends and shall continue to do so."

A BREATH OF MORN.
flow in upon my sou oh, wind of morn! Touch me with ancient tenderness and faith, Tbou perfumed waft from fields of blooming corn!
Woo me, lure mo from this poisoned shore of Death.
I hear far voices, sweet as flutes, somewhere Calling me into darkness, and I know Tbelr soft insidious languor on the air
Comes from the land of burial, damp and low.
Blow on me. oh, tliou current of sweet youth! Come back dear days of boyhood and bright dreams Arise again, tbou white, clear bloom of truth
Babble once more, oh, careless morning streams!
Kiss me, warm lips of purity and love Slug to me, lasses of the m-adow lauds Bind me with blossoms from the sacred grovo
Wherein the temple of my chllhood stand?.
Lo! I am sick to death of manhood's ways, And long to bo alighting mini no more No more for tne the clanging iron days
So let me live my happy may time o'er.
Blow on me wind, out of the sarly morn, And bear away from the wear and fret Bring me the perfume of the blooming corn,
And I will sing through many a springtime yet! —Maurice Thompson.
BOYS IN REFORM SCHOOL.
Report of $u peri ten dent Charlton—Co lilies Without i5ul Hoys— Their Cost to the Count ies—Some oft lie -Work Done.
Superintendent Charlton, of the Reform School for Boys, to-day presented to the Treasurer of State his semiannual report of the number of boys present in the school from each county in the State. The entire number present in the school during the past six months was 630. The following are the members from some of the largest counties: Marion, 114 Vigo, 44: Madison, 21 Howard, 10 Montgomery and Huntington, each, 15 Allen and Jackson, each, 14 Cass, 13 Vanderburg, Rush and Greene, each, 13 Decatur, Floyd, Knox, Monroe and Wayne, each 11.
The following twelve counties were not represented by a boy during the past six months: Brown, Franklin, Jasper, Lagrange, Ohio, Orange, Pulaski, Starke,
SteubeD,
Jennings,
Washington, Fulton. Under the law one-half the annual cost of keeping a boy at the reform school is borne by the counties from which boys come. This makes the cost to the county of each boy SCO a year. The superintendent reports that the past summer the health has been almost perfect, there not being at the time of the report a single boy oft' duty from sickness.
During the season the boys made and burned 400,000 bricks, and by their own labor erected anew school building of six rooms. Twenty-two boys learned to become good bricklayers twelve others become good plasterers, and eighteen boys did the carpenter work.
The laundry building, which burned June 1, has been completely restored. The superintendent says that the reform school is the best "trade school" in the country.
The State Kncumpiitcit!.
A spccial from Columbus says: "The executive board, consisting of the chairmen of the various committees, for the State encampment of the G. A. the Woman't Relief Corps, the Sons of Veterans, and the Ladies' Aid Society aud Auxiliary to the Woman's Relief Corps, which meet here next May, met last night and took the preliminary steps for permanent organization. "Adjutant-General Smock says the meeting at Columbus next year will be the biggest State encampment held, on account of two additional organizations—Sons of Veterans and Ladies'
Aid Society and Auxiliary to the Woman's Relief Corps—meeting with the G. A. R. encampment. "Adjutant-General Smock, Department Commander J. S. Dodge, of the Grand Army of the Republic, Mrs. Mary D. Travis, of Crawfordsville, State President of the Woman's Relief Corps R. S. Thompson, of Rising Sun, Colonel Commander of the Sons of Veterans, and Miss Anna Sims, of Franklin, State Department President of the Ladies' Aid Society and Auxiliary to the Woman's Relief Corps, will meet the executive board here in three weeks to fix the date of the encamp ment."

Charles U. Klrocl Snort the Monon Railroad Company Kor Heavy Damages —A J'eeullur Suit.
Charles. H. Elrod, through his attorney M. W. Bruner, has sued the Monon Railroad Company for $5,000 damages. He alleges in his ct mplaint a rather peculiar state of affairs. He recites that early last Augusta Monon freight train, heavily loaded, approached the Market street crossing that aB the approach was made the engineer neglected to 'ring the bell or sound the whistle as required by law that just before the crossing was reached uhe engine wheels slipped and this was followed by a snorting, puffing and letting off of steam by the engine that the terriflic racket frightened the horses attached to a butcher's cart, causing them to run away that the horses ran west on Market street and hurled the butcher's cart against the wagon in which plaintiff sat that the plaintiff was thrown out upon the ground and rendered unconscious that plaintiff hassuffered greatly from the injuries so received and is told by doctors that he will continue to suffer the balance of his days. In consequence of these injuries he asks damages in the sum of $5,000 and all proper relief.
PUBLIC MONEY.
How It Has lSeen AVnstei i5y Kxtriivugaut. and Reckless 1'uhlic Oilicials.
Indianapolis Sews: Governor Mount has begun to explore the basement of the State Capitol. Yesterday afternoon, with Charles E. Wilson, his private secretary, as his guide, he took a peep into some of the ante-rooms of the great dark chamber under the building. He had not been in the basement long until he made a discovery that prompted him to set on foot, immediately, an inquiry as to how much money is wasted annually through the State printing contract. When room No. 11, in the northeast corner of the ba^'vient, was unlocked, the Governor's eyt 8 spied a huge_ pile of books. On making an examination he found them to
ba
copies of the re
port of the Superintendent of Public Instruction for 18!4. Hervey D. Vories was the superintendent at that time. "There must be l'O.OOO books there," said Private Secretary Wilson. "At least three cords," said the Governor, as hid mind went back to his farm and took in the space three cords of wood occupy.
A partial count showed that the private secretary was not far wrong— that there are between 9,000 and 10,000 books in the stack. Each volume contains 908 pages. Custodian Vest said that the books were stacked in the room when he became custodian, and that he had never disturbed them. Further inquiry showed that the entire edition of the report of the superintendent for 1894 was represented in the stack that none of it had been distributed, as required by law: that the county superintendents of schools were not even supplied. The superintendent saved the cost of expressage by letting the books lie in the basement.
D. M. Geeting, the present Superintendent, said there was only one explanation to make, and that was that his predecessor had not distributed the books. "We have distributed every book that has been printed since I came into office, and the demand has not been much more than half supplied."
The Governor was indignant at what lie considered gross wastefulness of the public money. He suggested that the money paid out for those books would have purchased a good farm. The State printing contract for two years will be let to morrow, and it is the intention of the Governor to bring up this subject of wastefulness, and in sist that the State stop "throwing money to the birds."
Not Guilty.
Eph Zachary, charged with having obtained lumber under false pretenses, was tried Wednesday by Judge West and was acquitted, lie made a straight shoot upon his release, to his native jungle near Smartsburg.
A. Crack at Kilward.
Frankfort Times: Ed Corey, the Crawfordsville pugilist, arrived here last night and began blutling about whipping Jack Tierney on sight. He was told where Tierney could be found but did not go to him, and like Sunday'6 affair there was nothing but talk.
Whitman Convicted
Marshal Grimes this morning received a letter from Valentine, Neb., stating that A. S. Whitman, the Masonic swindler who was captured here, had been convicted in the courts there of obtaining money under false pretenses.

Just a
Little Pain.
The first touch of Rheumatism is a fair warning of much torture to follow. The little pains which dart through the body are not so severe at first, possibly a mere pang, and cause little inconvenience, but if .the warning is unheeded, they will multiply rapidly and increase in severity until they become almost unbearable.
Rheumatism as a rule is much severer in winter, though many are so afflicted with it that they are crippled all the year round. Those who felt its first touch last year, may be sure that with the first season of cold or disagreeable weather, the mild pain of last year will return as a severe one, and become more and more intense until the disease has them completely in its grasp.
Being a disease of the blood of the most obstinate type, Rheumatism can be cured only by a real blood remedy. No liniments or ointments can possibly reach the disease. Swift's Specific (S. S. S.) is the only cure for Rheumatism, because it is the only blood remedy that goes down to the very bottom of all obstinate blood troubles, and cures cases which other remedies cannot reach.
Capt. O. E. Hughes, the popular railroad man of Columbia, S. C., says: "At first I paid very little attention to the little pains, but they became so much sharper and more frequent that before long I was almost disabled. The disease attacked my muscles, which would swell to many times their natural size, and give me the most intense pain. "I was ready to doubt that Rheumatism could be cured, when I was advised td try S. S. S. This remedy seemed to get right at the cause of the disease, and soon cured me completely. I believe that S. S. S. is the only cure for Rheumatism, for I have had no return of the disease for eight years."
The mercurial and potash remedies, which the doctors always prescribe for Rheumatism, only aggravate the trouble, and cause a stiffness in the joints and aching of the bones which add so much to the distress of the disease, besides seriously affecting the digestive organs. S.S.S. (Swift's Specific) is the only cure for Rheumatism because it is absolutely free from potash, mercury or other minerals. It is the only blood remedy guaranteed
