1885: Wo have a good many visitors, and
they ask what machines wo use. We tell
them that we have used "Tho Davis" for
sixteen years and they suit us for our work,
better than any other, and that wa have
tried a good many machines."
The Ellsworth Kansas Neics says: The
"Davis" docs a greater variety of work than
nny other machine In the market, and so
well, while Its appointments are so com
plete and simple In construction that the
most fastidious see at once Its superiority.
But what pleased our fancy most was the

The first local Institute of this school war u.-i

cold nm stormy weather prevented the hall from
being packed by tho friends of education, yet
nioro than a hundred braved the storm und weie
well rewarded for tho risk.
I'rnf. Iltier. of Heading, delivered Ills lecture, nu
"Homo Influences." It wan replete with beau

The class drill In United Suites History by L.

Though his method was not as scientific as some
would nave, yei ins was enective, aim ins minus
have their minds well stored with historical
facts. It Is not so much how a teacher may teach,
but what energy and enthusiasm does he put In
to Ills method. Tho gentleman by his manner
shows himself to be u teacher full ot life, and
many were benefitted by the exercises.
Tho subject of Arithmetic was presented by A.

In the afternoon tho Institute was opened b

gae a talk on "Method of Teaching United
States History." (lenerally ne could hang many
Incidents et history upon ono fact. Around great
men tho leading events ot nations can be centered
e should make our uescripllons ot events as
vivid as posslbie.so that a child's mind will bo

School lllsclnllno ana L'ltl7enshlit " wn the
subject of a paper read by. I. M. ltobcits. Tho
following aro some of Hie leading points;
There are four great factors that enter into the
training of men for tho duties of citizenship, viz:
the Family, the Church, tho l'ress and the ruhllc
senooi. i ne in mi v ist no oldest ami smallest
form ot organized government. It maybe the
atiodeot forco aud fear; the place where dis
obedience, disorder nnd vice dwell together; or
ii may i)eiueuaoiuiiionoiioe.ioaceaiiu virtue.
1'rum the last class of families the Stale receives
her loyal sons and devoted daughters. If en
vironments ot home are corrupt aud debasing.
In nlnu cases out of ten the child will he bad.
and logically will the citizen bo a bad citizen.
I h Church has uouo much to nrcnarn men for
the duties of citizenship as well as the duties of
life. The church lias done a great work lu leno
vatliignnd purlfljingtho character of the Indi
vidual, the family and the nation.
rile l'l-tiss I a nowertul utrcnt In eriucatlitf? tli
people. All Independent and noii-partlzan press
has done much to overthrow hoHsisin.nnd aronsn
the manly Independence of the masses, it Is
doing a noble work lu purifying the political at-
mnspher and relegating demagogues nnd hood
lers to private life and to tho penitentiary, and
demanding virtue, honesty and fidelity as the
right standard of truo citizenship.
The School Is tho fourth factor. The various
forms of discipline to be found In tho school are:
luciiisci u ne or lorce: me u sc ni no oi
tact: 3. The dlsclpllno of consequences i 4. Tht
discipline of conscience.
Miss liood, the energetic aud faithful teacher
of our lowest primary room, gave an excellent
urui in nuiuuer wotk wun n cias.s oi uino pupus.
The skill and Intelligent 1 bought w hlch she man
ifested In developing the Idea of number and
furm In tho mtud of it child, places her In the
front rank of primary teachers. Shu has given
much time and thought to the study of the best
methods of teaching In the primary grade. Her
professional zeal and enthusiasm are among her
leading characteristics. The teachers wero In
terested and educated by tho points that were
taken up In the various stages of number w ork.
"Industrial Education," was ably discussed by
J.J. Uevan. This Is an advance m the right
direction. If the government can afford to give
manual training to Indian children, how much
more should they a fiord the means to experl
ranut with the children ol our own race. It
teaches them habits of Industry, and to heroine
useful .citizens. It dots not mean that every Iwy
must become a carpenter or a machinist, no mora
than It means that a student of Greek or Uillu
should become a teacher of those languages.
i no iireseui icacners were not to train ine pupils,
hutsTtllled mechanics. Tho subject was ably and
forcibly presented. A discussion In whUh J. M.
liobeits, and A. 8. Belsel participated.
and assisted by the other pupils, did much to

Salt Rheum
The agonies of those who suffer from severe
salt rheum aro Indescribable. The cleansing,
healing, purifying Influences of Hood's Sarsa
parllla are unequalled by any other medicine.
"I take pleasure In recommending Hood't
Barsaparllla, for It has done wonders forme.
I had salt rheum very severely, affecting me
over nearly my entlro body. Only those who
have suffered from tills disease In Its wont
form can Imagine the extent of my affliction.
I tried many medicines, but failed to receive
benefit until I took Hood's Barsaparllla.
Then tho dlseaso began to subside, the
Agonizing Itch and Pain
disappeared, and now I am entirely free from
the disease. My blood teems to bo thor
oughly purified, and my general health Is
greatly benefited." Lyman Allun, Bexton
V. E.'Cliurcb, North Chicago, 111.
"My son had salt rheum on his hands and
tho calves ot his legs, so bad that they would
crack open and bleed. Ho took Hood's Bar
saparllla and Is entirely cured." J, D. Stan-
tok, Mt. Vernon, Ohio.
From 108 to 135
"I was seriously troubled with salt rheum
for threo years, and receiving no benefit from
medical treatment I decided to try Hood's
Barsaparllla. I am now entirely cured of salt
rheum; my weight has Increased from 103 lbs,
to 135." Mns. Alice Smith, Stamford, Conn.
It you suffer from salt rheum, or any blood
disease, try nood'a Barsaparllla. It has cured
many others, nnd will euro you.
