School Report.
Report of the Public Schools for month ending
February 10th.
Number of pupils registered to date 749

Average daily attendance 652
Percentage of attendance 94
Number of pupils present every day 313
Number of pupils tardy ... 69
Number of pupilssick '. : 43
Number of visitors to school 69
The following gains are noted in comparing
the aboxe figures with the previous month's re
port:—the averagedaily attendance has increased
by nine, the percentage of attendance shows a
gain of two per cent, the number present every
day has increased by 38 and the number tardy
decreased by live. This makes a very creditable
showing. The percentage of attendance is un
usually high when all factors are considered.
The best record for the month were made by
Miss Hair's room, 97. Miss Ludlam's 96' i, Miss
G'umming's9s%, Miss Ritchie's9s, Miss Gregory's
94'4 and the High School 91. We hope the good
record in attendance may be sustained for much
depends thereon. We ask parents to examine
carefully the monthly reports and to compare
them with previous months to determine the
progress of the pupil. This is the advantage
sought by having the entire year's report on the
one card.
Parents are urgenily invited to visit the schools

Thirteen Lucky.
The year 1903 is known to the sup
erstitious as a "Thirteen" year. Its
numerals added together make thir
teen. Lieutenant C. A. L. Totten, form
erly military instructor at Yale, and
who attracted some attention a few
years ago by his prophecies in regard
to the end of the world in answer to the
query of 1903 would prove an unlucky
year replied: "What is the matter with
either Friday or the number thirteen ?
As to America, it bears thirteen all over
its heraldry, and Friday has been its
chief day (discovery of America, Dec
laration of Independence, etc.) We
have thirteen letters in E Pluribus
Unum, the motto on our great seal.
We hava thirteen, thirteen times re
peated, on that seal. Take out a new
silver quarter, if you have one left, and
count the thirteens, even of Its obverse
face. Manassab was the thirteenth
tribe in Isreal and we are the people."
If there is anything attached to thir
teen, Americans at least are justified in
believing it a lucky number. They do
not forget the thirteen original states
or the thirteen stripes on the American

DeWitt's Little Early Risers do not

biliousness, jaundice, constipation and in
active livers, by arousing the secretions,
moving the bowels gently, yet effectually,
and giving such tone and strength to the
glands of the stomach, liver and bowels
that the cause of the trouble is removed
entirely. These famous little pills exert
a decided tonic effect upon the organs in
volved, and if their use is continued for a
tew days there will be no return of the
trouble. 11. C. Dodson.

A Weak Stomach
Causes a weak body and invites disease,
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure cures and strength
ens the stomach, and wards off and over
comes disease. J. 15. Taylor, a prominent
merchant of Chiiesmari, Tex., says: '•!
could not eat because of a weak stomach,
I lost all strength and rundown in weight.
Al. that money could do was done, but
all hope of recovery vanished. Hearing
of some wonderful cures effected by use of
Kodol I concluded to try it. The first
bottle benefitted mc, and after takinsr four
bottles I am fully restored to my usual
strength, weight and health." R. C.
Dodson.
A silent idiot is wiser than a babbling
simpleton.
One Minute Cough Cure gives relief in
one minute, because it kills the microbe
which tickles the mucous membrane,
causing the cough, and at the same time
clears the phlegm, draws out the inflam
mation and heals and soothes the affected
parts. One Minute Cough Uuie strength
ens the lungs, wards off pneumonia and is
a harmless and never failing cure. In all
curable cases of Coughs, Colds and Croup,
One Minute Cough Cure is pleasant to
take, harmless and good alike for young
and old. R. C. Dodson.
