Notice . .
The School laws of Tennessee require
that all warrants given for anything
except teachers' salaries shall be coun
tersigned by the county superintendent,
and requires that he shall keep a
record of all such warrants. It also
places a penalty on the trustee for pay
ing such warrants before they are
countersigned. Therefore, do not pre
sent such warrants to the trustee until
they have been first presented to the
superintendent." : This is a matter of
aw, and the law was made for the pro
tection of the school fund, and while it
adds more to the work of the county
superintendent to do this, yet the law
is specific in the matter.

GOOD ADVICE FOR
COOKEVILLE PEOPLE
People in Cookeville who have con
stipation, sour stomach or gas on the
stomach, should use simple ; buckthorn
bark, glycerine, etc., as compounded in
Adler-i-ka, the new German appendici
tis remedy. A SINGLE DOSE brings
relief almost INSTANTLY because this
Bimble -mixture anticepticizes t'le di
gestive organs and drains the impuri
ties. The Swallows Drug Co., Algood,
