The schools in this section began last Monday with an able set of teachers in control. Zona Custard again teaches the river school, which makes his fourth term at this place. E. W. Gosch is plowing for wheat, using his tractor as the" motive power. He has it equipped with an automatic rudder, and it matters not whether he rides or walks, it runs right along turning over uniform furrows. Our mermaid article of last week seems to have a wide application, as not less than six have asked us not to tell who we w-ere alluding to. We expect another one to make some rash remark of confession and thus swell the number to seven, W’hich is a perfect number.* But, really, we can’t see any serious harm in flirting with those fabled beauties of the deep.

Don't Neglect Your fold Neglected colds get worse, instead of better. A stuffed head, a tight chest must be relieved at once. Dr. Bell’s Pine-Tar-Honey is Nature’s remedy. Honey and glycerine heal the irritated membrane, antiseptic tar loosens the phlegm, you breathe easier and your cold is broken up. Pleasant to take, Dr. Bell’s Pine-Tar-Honey is an ideal remedy for children as well as grown-ups. At your Druggist, 25c. —Advt.

Wright of Rensselaer came up and took charge of the remains.

The pickles still come in the big wagonload. They have now something over 10,000 bushels in, and if the weather continues favorable they will be coming in during the balance of the month.

Stop the First Cold A cold does not get well of itself. The process of wearing out a cold wears you out, and your cough becorfies serious if neglected. Hack- (

ing coughs drain the energy and sap the vitality. For 4 7 years the happy combination of soothing antiseptic balsams in Dr. King’s New Discovery has healed coughs and relieved congestion. Young and old d>n testify to the effectiveness of Dr King’s New Discovery for coughs and colds. Buy a bottle today at your druggist, 50c.—Advt.

Lame when you awaken, pains pierce you when you bend or lift. It's hard to work or to rest. Backache often indicates bad kidneys. Rensselaer people recommend Doan’s Kidney Pills. Read this case: Mrs. O. R. Lewis, Rensselaer, says: “I suffered a great deal from pains in my back, especially when 1 got up or down or in anyway bent my back. I was also miserable with a throbbing ache in the back of my head. I often felt confused and dizzy. My kidneys acted irregularly and the secretions were unnatural. Doan's Kidney Pills, which I got at A. F. Long’s drug store, quickly corrected the trouble and put me in good health.” I Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—'get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same | that Mrs. Lewis had. Foster-Mil-j burn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y.—I Adir.
