Do You Suffer From Rheumtism*
No one who lias not been a sufferer can
liave any idea of the excrutiating agony
caused by Rheumatism. This painful
disease is frequently caused by a stoppage
of the circulation of the blood, through
the muscular portions of tlje body. BAL­
LARD'S SNOW LINIMENT will invari
ably cure this disease by penetrating every
spot of the skin and drawing to the outer
surface all poisonous matter and restor­
ing a natural circulation of the blood.

Miss Lillie Bishop ofLeKoy is teaching
this winter, near Etna, in Fillmore Co.
According to the 1885 state census
there are in Mower County 4,073 males
over 31 years ©f age. There are 5,889
children of school age, of which 1207 are
between 5 and 7, 2741 between 8 and 151
and 1741 between 16 and 21.
The A. class in Dexter village school
have taken up booking, this term. The
trustees in some of our school districts
need to use judgment in the purchase of
apparates. A $60. chart, which ought to
be purchased for one third of that enorm­
ous price, seems singularly out of place
in a school room destitute'of any reference
books and most commonly used and nec­
essary apparatus.
The teachers of the Lyle village school
have raised $30 toward a public school
library and will receive an equal amount
from the,state. The list of books selected
includes Chambers encyclopedia, Long­
fellow and Lowell's poems and selections
of recent publications adapted for differ­
ent grades of pupils. What Lyle village
has done, other schools can do.
Dull Boys In 8ehool.
Never get out of patience with dull
boys. Perhaps we ought to say never
get out of patience with anything. That
would perhaps be the wisest rule. But
above all things remember that dullness
and stupidity, which are to be found in
every school, are the very last things to
get out of patience with. If the Creator I
has so formed the mind of a boy that he
must go throuh life slowly aud with diffi­
culty, impeded by discouragements which
others never know, his lot his surely hard
enough without having you add to it the
trial and suffering which your sarcasm
and reproach can Leap upon him*.
Look over the school, therefore, and
whereever you find one whom you per­
ceive the Creator to haye imbued with less
intellectual power than others, fix your
eye upon him with an expression of kind­
ness and sympathy. Such a boy will
haye suffering enough from the selfish­
ness and tyranny of his compnaions he
ought to find in his teacher a protector
and a friend.
One of the greatest pleasures which a
teacher's life affords is the interest of
seeking out such a child bowed down
with burdens of depression and discour­
agement—unaccustomed to sympathy
and kindness, and expectinp nothing in
the future but a weary continuance of the
cheerless toils which have embittered the
past and the pleasure of taking off the
burden, of surprising the timid, disheart­
ened sufferer by kind words and cheering
looks, and of seeing in his countenance
ilie expression of ease and even of happi­
ness gradually returning. —Selected.
I've been a suffer from lheumatism for
years and have been unable to «btain any
relief at all. Salvation Oil gave me en­
tire relief and I heartily recommend it.
