NO DISEASE has ever presented so many peculiarities as LaGrippe. No dlseaa leaves Its victims so debilitated, useless, sleepless, nerveless, as LaGrippe. Mr. D. W.

Hilton, state agent of the Mutual Life Insurance of Kentucky, says) "In 1889 and '90 I had two severe attacks of LaGrippe, the last one attacking toy nervous system with such severity that my life was despaired of. I had not slept for more than two months except by the use of narcotics that stupefied me, but gave me no rest. I was only conscious of Intense mental weakness, agonizing bodily pain and the fact that I was hourly growing weaker. When in this condition, I commenced using Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine.

In two days I began to improve and In one month's time I was cured, much to the surprise of all who knew of my condition. I have been in excellent health since and have recommended your remedies to many of my friends." Louisville, Jan. 22, 1895. D. W.

Uarrtloua Rttults. From a lelter writler by Rev. J. Gander-man, of Dimnodsle, we ore permitted to make this extract "I have no- hesitation in recommending Ir. Kirig's New Discovery, as the routls werar almost marvelous" in the case of my wife.

"While I was pastor of the church at Rivet'' Hiclro si was brought HiiK-n with Pneumonia, soccenling taGrippe Terrible paroxysmr of coughirg would last hours wi little iniemrf iron and it seemed as if she a-uld not survive them.

Regular size, 50c and 1. 00, jl Communicated. En. RrrcuLicAS Tho development of tho individual Is being sorely neglected. Dr.

Hibbs Is right when he says, "Our ago is great not througn a large census roll, but through a multitude of great souls, jilst as a book Is valuable not by hav-ing'uiany pages, but by containing many ideas. No nation is moving forward toward supremacy moroly because the weak individuals began to go in droves." In our education we are, singing peons of praise about our schools and new methods of education. Meanwhile Frederick Harrison Insists that in fifty years tho public schools of Great Britian have turned out not one mind of the lirst order. Many of those who have achieved renown in literature or state-craft were solf-eductvted. The rest enjoyed the help of some parent or friend, who very early in the child's career, took the pains to search out the childs strongest faculty, and then ask some tutor or teacher to assist in uourishi the special talent toward greatness.

At home president White is telling us that "our authors and poets are dead and have no successors." Nor cjuld it be otherwise. When a skillful driver wishes to develop the speed of a thoroughbred colt, he special izes upon this ono animal, bo sen sible horseman would put. forty colts upon a track and try to develop the speed by driving them around in a drove. It remains for the purents of this country to adopt the method of training their childron in droves, and educuting them in herds. Our common school system began in the necessity the division of labor.

Settling In the forests of New England, the men went into tho forests with axes, or to the fields with their hoes. Tho mother went into the garden or to the loom. Kather than their children should have no education, many parents came and asked someone man or woman to do the work for nil. Thus our common schools were born out of povarty and an emergency. But at length has come a time when parents, in blind worship of a system, have farmed their children out to intellectual wet nurses.

Many children who possess talent of the hrst order in tho realm of poetry or literature are compelled during the most precious period of life to spend years upon subjects that yield them no culture effect. Mean tvhllc theirenthusiasm is wasted, nnd heir strongest faculties starved. Only when it is too 'late do hey discover the cruel injustice that has been wrought upon them, and recognize that they must remain unfulfilled prophecies. Our common schools have wrought most effectively for our civilization. They are the hopo of society: But not until our parents become enthusiastic teachers, and our homos assist the scion) rooms will niencenso complaining that the Na- k'tion's great men have no successors, and that genius has departed from our people.

The Eureka Endowment Relief Association will suspend operation for a short time pending an investigation by the post office department at Washington.

With all this sickness and the three months siege of a bone felon, which finally necessitated the amputation of the linger at the knuckle Joint, Mr. Gage has had a pretty sor-lous lime of it, but he still comes up as cheerful as a victorious candidate after the election. The College students were all dismissed at noon last Saturduy and they were at a loss to act ount for this sud den move on the part of the 1 "resi dent. Some sunulsod hat the faculty wanted to attend the races, others concluded they were going to spend a half Day soliciting for new students for the beginning of next term. Tho president, however, wid not a word to enlighten them as to why the wore to have ly, but the whole matter was explaii ed in the evening when' the news a go up town of a nmV arrival ntPresidt ut Bowman's home.

We understand there is some complaint being nimlo by the teachers of tit public school for the neglect of parents in visitiug the school, andwv Lav no doubt tho complaint is a well grounded on i. Parents should take more interest in the school than they do, or make an effort to manifest tho interest which they already feel, and it cannot bo shown in any bel ter way than to visit the school once or twice a month. It is a wonderful incentive to scholium to study and greatly encourages the teachers to have purents como iu occasion) and note the progress of their children and drop a word of encouragement and commendation to the teacher, that they may feel that their work is not in vain. Parents, you are neglect ing your du ty by not visiting the school. COLLEGE NOTES.
