The charming and gifted niece of Mr. Jobu HarmaD, Miss Zula, is paying him an extended vit-it. "*The pupils of this place met last j Monday and organized themselves ' into a society. After a little disput- j iDg it was finally decided upon call- 1 ing it "Willing Workers1' society j They elected the following officers : Mr. Ward Leaphart, president ; Mr. George Harman, vice president ; Mr. Hoy Wessinger, secrStarj; Mr. Alfred Rawl, critic; Mies Mary Kaiser, door-keeper. The purpose of this society is to better train its members in writing essays, recitations, debating etc , and we think if carried out right will be a great help to each and every member. Mr. R. A. Barr is busy sawing shingles for Mr. N. H Harman. Mr Paul Shull ha3 gone back to Cokesbury to resume lis studi s We were certainly sorry to lose our good old friend. Mr. J. J. Harrnan has recently purchased an orgaD, and has his sons studying music under the accomplished teacher, Mrs. R A. Barr. Mr. P. I Rawl also has two of his sons UDder her tutorship. fiow old is Ann ? For many weeks past we have been iooking in vain for a solution to this problem. It seems like some of your effusive correspondents would publish the correct answer. Our teacher has a solution, so has a patron of our school, but would like to hear from others first. Ob, how strong those orange blossoms smell. Tney can't be far off. Ask a certain black-eyed maiden bow maDy large parcels she receives on mail days ? See if she doesn't blusb.

Miss Agnes Rawl, the jolly, bappy-bearted belle, of Boyleston, spent one night last week with her friend, Miss Etbel Koon. And from tbe peals of laughter that issued from tbe room this scribe ventures to say these girls had a good time. What's the matter girls ? Won't tbe boys stay at home since Leap Year began ? It seems as if marrying has become a thing of tbe past. Hurr^up ! You have it real bandy now, Mr. P. J. Raw! has tbe proper authority now to make you man and wife, and I think he will do it just as pleasantly as anybody. Nita. Cured After Suffering 10 Years. B. F. Hare, Supt Miami Cycle & Mfg. Co,.

Tbe Reaper whose came is Death carried to the heavenly garner in tbe bloom of life tbe promising son and tbe lovely daughter of tbe devoted mother a few years prior to her departure. "And the mother gave in tears and pain. The flowers she most did love, She knew she should find them both again, In the fields of light above."

When the liver fails to secrete bile, the b!ood becomes loaded with bilious properties, the digestion becomes impaired and the bowels constipated.

"It always is." "You insist that you don't want anjthiDg distuibed there," sb* responded, meekly. "Well, I don't want ray papers disturbed: but I don't want this sheet of postage stamps left there." "Where shall I put them?" she irquired demurely, as she took them up. "Don't ask so many questions," he srapped. "Put them anywhere out cf my eight." "Very well sir, 6he cooed," as lightly as a dove.
