Rev. W. F. B. Brown, the new pastor

ably Impressed. At the evening service

ten members of Franklin lodge. Loyal
Knights of America, of Carbondale, at
tended the services In a body. The ad -dress
was principally on the principles
of the order. Rev. Brown choosing for
his text John, II, 25: "He needed not
that any should testify of man. for He
knew what was in man." The members

Sadie Quinn; select reading, John Mer
rick. The school term just ended has been
one of the most successful that has ever

ment made by the scholars in all the
grades speaks much for the efficient
corps of teachers secured by the school
board. In the report recently made It
was shown that the attendance was un
usually large and the average rate of
attendance for the year raised consid
erably. The results of the past term
have been most gratifying to all con
cerned. Several of the directors favor
making alterations In the old school
building so that the primary room may
be divided In two parts or another room
added. The attendance last term was
125 pupils, requiring two primary teach
ers and It Is thought much better work
can be done by having two teachers
In two rooms than In one room.

were badly affected, so that I could not do
my own work. Our physician gave me
I some help, but did not cure. I decided
: to try Hood's Saraaparilla. Boon I could
do all my own housework. I have taken
yiredl
Hood's Pills with Hood's Saraaparilla,
and they have done me much good. I
will not be without them. I have taken 13
bottles of Hood's Saraaparilla, and through
the blessing of God, It has cured me.
I worked as hard as ever the past sum
mer, and I am thankful to say I ain
well. Hood's Pills when taken with
Hood's Saraaparilla help very much."
