Typhoid Toyor. Typhoid is now admitted by all scientists to be caused by a venom microbe that swarms by the million in the tissues Of the small intestines, producing fever, delirium, extreme prostration, putrifaction and death. The medical profession has earnestly sought a reliable antidote for this mortal plague and found none. Hence it is a bold, an almost startling claim, (a claim never before dared to be made for any remedy,) that Brazilian Balm, alone, will positively cure Typhoid
TYPHOID SACTI.LtS. Fever in any stage. This great discovery was the result of a woman’s faith. Mrs. L. B. Bradway, of Wilmington, Del., believed the Balm would do almost anything. Hence she gave it in 6 drop doses, every three to five minutes, to a voung lady in the last stage of Typhoid. Bhe had been given up by the doctor, who said she could not live half an hour. To the surprise of all she quickly revived and recovered. Since then it has been used by laymen, nurses and physicians with uniform success. How it cures was then a mystery; but it is now fully settled that it promptly destroys every Typhoid bacillus in the system. It staunches the hemorrhage, heals the whole alimentary track, and, instead of the slow, tedious convalescence, restores to health and strength with surprising rapidity. In short, it nils every condition of a perfect antidote itmnu: Give 10 drops every 15 miuutee while the fever rages, and ones t.u hour when the fever is off, r.nd give nothing else. During convf.lescence gi-c or 4 times a day. To prevent Typhoid give every hour. Gainesville, O., druggists say nothing bus been offered in that town for y«.ars which is so popular and gives such universal satisfaction as Brazilian Balm. Nearly 400 bottles have been sold thero in the last two months.

Supcrinteniient’** Monthly Report. Commencement Looming I P*
Can any of the yeomanry of Put nam county, the toilers, who are now laboring hard to make both ends meet, the fanner, the mechanic or the laborer, see any need in the county board of commissioners increasing a wealthy attorney's salary six times what it was last year? This raise in salary coming during these hard times is a travesty on the vaunted democratic cry of economy. If the county attorney received half of that six hundred dollar fee, and he is not in the habit of divid ing on a more liberal basis, he is, in the opinion of many taxpayers,
being overpaid. The county board is now doing just what we predicted they would do when they made that $25 deal for an attorney a year ago, and which deal was increased three times in size this week, now being $75, with another $75 for the pauper practice. They are now employing legal talent at the rate of $ti00 per case. Why is this? Is it because the $75 advice doesn't suffice or is the $75 advice merely a tigure-head bid in order to secure fat fees in cases entailing “additional” work, and how long is this thing to last? What the county needs and should have is a legal adviser at a fair salary, and then let him fight their legal battles through all the courts at no increase in salary, or with any extra help. Give the job out at a decent salary and stop all this “extra” business. The city pays $350 per year for legal service and that is all. When the city attorney has a case in the supreme court he fights it through, does not have to hire additional help, and gets no increase in wages. He has taken three cases through the supreme court in as many years and has received not a cent increase in salary. The tax payers of Putnam county should register a protest against such an indefinite clause as the commission ers have tacked on to the tail end of their contract with the county attorney. That clause is a decid edly soft snap and one that can be interpreted in most any way.
At the present rate there will be need for but one ballot in St. Louis and its name will be McKinley. Foraker’s speech helped matters some.

DangcrotiH Surgicui Opt’ration. At the residence of Jerry Steele Wednesday a most delicate and dangerous surgical operation was performed upon Mrs. Martini Anderson of Carp, Owen county, for the removal of a fibro cystic tumor. The tumor was large, extending over a good portion of the face and neck involving blood-yessels and nerves necessary to the continuance of life. It was carefully dissected out, tlie operation lasting nearly one and a half hours. No injury whatever was done to the important nerves occupying this region and only four or five small vessels re- j quired the ligature. The patient! rallied well from the shock which' always attends these dangerous op-1 erations and at this writing is doing well with good prospects forj recovery. Drs. Kmythe. Tucker and Hanna performed the opera-
tion.
The enrollment in the schools is now 787, the enrollment for the month 705, the average enrollment 080.9, the average attendance 652.1 or 95.8 per cent, the number not absent nor tardy 402 or 59 4 per cent, the cases of tardiness 35 or 2.0 per cent. These percents arcvery good, that of tardiness being a marked improvement. By build ings the tardiness is as follows: No. one 5, No. two 1, No. three 13, High school 16.

In the High school the speakers for graduation have been selected as follows: Valedictorian, Myrtle Ridpath. aalutatorian, NHlie Landes, Arthur Real, Nora Alspaugh, Jennie Martin, Leland Bass. Margaret Cosner, Curtis Frank, Bessie Sudranski, Lizzie Walls, Mary Gordon. The lirst fiye speak because they have made the highest ayerage in scholarship for the three years, the following three were elected by the class and the other three were chosen by the teachers, taking into consideration all things that ought to figure in the selec tion. Omer Newhouse was elected by the class to make the response to the address of welcome to the class at the Alumni reunion. In the midst of our rejoicing over the continued preservation of life and health to pupils and teachers, came the sudden shock caused by the accidental killing of Milton Dobell by one of his schoolmates on Saturday, March 7. He was a member of the eighth grade in building No. 3. He was a fine looking gentlemanly boy, an excellent student, faithful and conscientious in all his work, commanding the love and confidence of all his teachers and schoolmates. It is inexpressibly sad that a life so young, so promising, so beautiful, should be suddenly eclipsed ; but it is a great satisfaction to know that it was beautiful. R. A. Ooo.
