SCHOOL BOARD
ELECTS PRESIDENT
Director Kerwin, Secretary of Old
Board, Chosen at Last Night's
Special Meeting in Accordance
with Precedent Tax Levy of
Eleven Mills for Next Year Other
Business.
The L'aibondale school board nt a
special session last night rotnpleted its
permanent organization by electing
KIchard H. Kerwin, director from the
lower district, as president.
Sir. Kerwliv was the secretary of the
old boaul, and was re-elected at the
Spiinjr election. His absence at the or
ganization meeting on Monday evening
caused the permanent organization to
be put off until a special meeting could
be called to suit the1 convenience of the
new piesldent during the strike situa
tion. Retiring President HukIips opened
the meeting last night and presided un
til Mr. Kerwln's election. After the
piesontation and acceptance of the hit
ter's "Pi'tlllcate of election, Mr. Cope
laiul, seconded by Mr. Vanaan, nomin
ated Mr. Kerwin for president.. The
election was unanimous. President
Kerwin in taking the chair heartily
thanked the dlrectois. This made the
reorganization of the board complete.
An important action of the board was
the fixing of the tax levy for the com
ing year. It was made the same as last
year eleven mills; 7 mills for the gen
eral fund, 3 mills for the building fund
and one mill for the sinking fund.
There was considerable discussion be
fore the amount of the levy was deckl
ed upon. A summing up of the expen
ditures of the year indicated that more
money was needed. Mr. Copeland and
Mr. Hughes, however, were firmly op
posed to raising the levy. They would
prefer to shorten the school term by
one "month, thus appieclably curtailing
expenses, than to increase the levy be
yond eleven mills. In the face of the- cir
cumstances of labor in the community.
None of the other members urged the
raising of the levy, though it was sug
gested .as necessary.
The question of shortening the school
year will be disposed of at the next
meeting.
It was decided to have the annual
financial statement of the district
printed on posters, to be tacked upon
poles, etc., on the highway.
Next Tuesday was fixed as visiting
day for the directors among the schools
and Monday, June 23 was named as in
spection day, when the board will tour
the district to observe what cluuiges
or Improvements about the schools may
be necessary.

THE GRANDEST
The Most Satisfactory and Safest Med

Thus Does a Prominent Brooklyn, N.Y., Woman, Speak
of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound,
When a woman of tho prominenco and social standing of Mrs. Atherton
whoso portrait wc are herewith permitted to reproduce, voluntarily furnishes
us with a letter of such unqualified endorsement as tho following, wo feel
that wo not only owo her a debt of gratitude, but all womon who aro 111
should fool under deep obligations to her, for sho tolls thorn Itrunmlstakablo
words where they may look for a euro and not bo disappointed.
Such testimony should bo accepted by all women as convincing cvklenea
that Lydia 13. Plnkliam's Vegetable 'Compound stands without a peer
as a remedy for all tho distressing ills of women; all ovarinn troubles; in
flammations; ulceration, falling and displacements of tho womb ; backache 5
Irregular, suppressed or painful menstruation. Surely tho volume and char
actor of tho testimonial lottors wo are dally printing in the ncwspapera-win
leavo no room for doubt. Truly ia it said that it is Iiydin, 13. Plnkliam's
Vegetable Compound that is curing so many women, and no other medicine.

MRS. FLORENCE ATHERTOK
Vice-President Societe Francaiso de Bienfaisance, Brooklyn, N". T.
"Deab Mrs. Pctcham: For the benefit of suffering women I want
to testify to the fact that I have by personal experience and by friends
who have been cured by using Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound come to the conclusion that it is the safest, the grandest and tho
most satisfactory medicine any sick woman can take. Life was a bur
den to mo five years ago, I felt so miserable with female troubles and
irregular menstruation j to-day it is all different, for I am perfectly well.

' Dear Mrs. Ptnkha.m : I cannot praiso Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege
table Compound enough. I was a sick woman when I commenced to taka
it. My trouble was female disease, and I had pain in my back and sides. The
doctor said I was going into consumption ; I had been married eight years, bub
had no children. I had some of the best doctors in the city, but none seemed
to cure me, so I decided to take your medicine, and it has made me a newr
woman, and I now havo a lovelv little baby boy. I would advise all sick and
weak women to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound."

Pinkhnm if there is anything about her symptoms she does not
