Authur Jordan introduced the subject of adorning school house grounds. He did not wonder that boys and girls sometimes preferred to stay at home rather than go to a dingy school-room with unattractive surroundings. Miss Wier thought pleasant grounds had a refining influence on children. Mr. Mac Donald said teachers had a great deal of missionary work to do in this matter.

It was the duty of people to ornament the ground but if they failed, the teachers should lead. The ornamenting should be in accordance with a carefully prepared plan. Mr. Turner showed by diagrams and records what had been done in one of the Jewell county districts. Each tree was planted in honor of some noted person.

A class exercise in the conjugation of irregular verbs was given by J. N. Moody. He took a volunteer class, and showed this branch of grammer could be taught. Mr.

Shull took charge of current topics. The B. Q. strike, the tariff bill, the cyclone and the Blair bill were discussed. A vote was taken on the last name, but many were not ready to vote.

All favored national education, but some were not satisfied with the Blair bill. The vote was 29 to 9 for the measure. Mr. Larimer's lesson in English literature was on John Lathrop Motley. He compared him with Prescott and Bancroft and thought he was superior to both; indeed, was the representative historian of America.

In his works are not only found historv, but literature and patriotism as well. Mr. Larimer read several extracts from "The Rise of the Dutch Republic," among others the siege of Leyden and a description of William the Silent. The reading of these was listend to with much interest. It was found that the association was not ready to vote on the list of 100 books for a district library; hence a committee was appointed to select a list of 150 or 200 books.

These will be placed on the blackboard at the next meeting, and 100 Groceries, II I O. W. IsL. WHITE. HSirnilfSirQ Dealer in Hardware, Stoves and Tinware.

My physician prescribed medicine which gave me only temporary relief, and for sis years thereafter it kept recurring with intensified pain. It was so severe at the base of my brain that my I memory failed so I could not attend to my ordinary business, and the lameness disabled me from my work, and my suffering was dreadful. I My case was beyond anything doctors I could do for me, and I went to Eureka I springs for nine weeks, returned a little i better but not able to do any work. I re-, mained feeble and getting worse grad- ually until last fall, when in addition to my other troubles I had an attack of acute sciatica in my left hip. My suffering at times was intense and life seemed a burden.

I made a second trip to Eureka, and staid there six weeks, when I I came home feeling even worse than ever My pains were exenrciating. I could barely hobble about on a cane and I could not lie down or sleep. While in this i condition, last December, I commenced to use water from your mineral spring, and strange as it may appear, in three months I was entirely free from any pain. I can now walk with ease, sleep i well and am gaining all the time. CABINET KOTOS.
