The New School District.
The meeting at the court house
last Thursday night to consider the
advisability of requesting the Board
of School Commissioners to st*l. oil'
a new' school district was not as well
attended as it should have been, but
tlie audience was a most representa
tive one. Superintendent of Educa
tion McArthur was made chairman
and J. B. Bell secretary. The debate
was quite lively and elicited the fact
that the meeting was overwhelmingly
in favor of requesting the County
School Board to setoff the new school
district. This request was made.
The establishment of a graded
school will now await further devel-
onement.

ness people that they are, when they

at it. The contractors will push mat
ters and the new addition will be
ready for use in a short while.

AJready his “new scientific system
of mediefne” has permanently cured
thousands of apparently hopeless

The Doctor considers it not only
his professional, but bis religious
duty—a duty-which he owes to suffer
ing humanity—to donate his infallible
cure.
He lias proved the “dreaded con
sumption’’ to he a curable disease
beyond a doubt, in any climate, and
bason lile in his American un i Euro
pean laboratories thousand op’heart-
felt testimonials of gratitude” from
those benefitted ana cured, in all
parts of the world.
Catarrhal and pulmonary troubles
lead to consumption, and consump
tion, uninterrupted, means speedy
and certain death. Don’t delay until
it is too late. Simply write T. A.
Slocum, M. C., 98 I’ine street. New
