A smart Broadway, New

this sign hanging outside
his store; it" marks the
new era of drug selling.
Is it any wonder that lie
has to enlarge his quar

busy, and that his store is
one of the most popular
along the leading thor
oughfare ?

Communications for this Column
Should he Addressed to
.7. I*. Dendy, Homer.
We lament lilt; fact that we were
unable to tender communications for i
this column during the past month |
but it was on tlio account of absccnec
Irom home—Having been on a visit
to our native state, South Carolina.
In the meantime we fully expected
that fOinf (f out brothers in the
profession, would make a contribution
but we have no reason to think so af
ter reflecting upon the' just. As yet
no one seems inclined to aid us but it
takes more than that to discourage us
tlicrefo' c we move on in our usual
way.
He as fair and candid in your criti
cism of your fellow teachers as you
want them to he in their criticisms of
you, for they criticise you as much as
you do them.
Why lavish your affection on that
good boy in your school? He doesn’t
need it. It’s that bad hov that needs
your love; give it to him unstintedly.
Your love may win him to a bright
manhood.
Happy and strong is that teacher,!
who, in these days of fads and new
tangled method ana devices, has a
vein of conservatism running through
iier mental make-up. A safe rule to
lollow these days, when innovation
arc Dressing close upon the teaclnr,
is, “Be not the first by whom the new
aro tried, nt r yet the last to lay the
old aside.”

If. is often difficult to convince peo
ple their blood is impure, until dread
ful carbuncles, abscesses, boils, scrof
ula or salt riieurn, are painful proof >f
the fact. It is wisdom now, or when
ever there is any indication of
Impure
blood, to take Hood’s Sarsaparilla, and
prevent such eruptions and suffering.
“X had a dreadful carbuncle abscess,
red, fiery, fierce and sore. The doctor at
tended mo over Beven weeks. When the
abscess "broke, the pains were terrible, and
I thought I should not live through it. I
heard and read so much about Hood's
Sarsaparilla, that I decided to take it, and
my husband, who was suffering with
boils, took it also. It soon purified our
Blood
built me up and restored my health so
that, although the doctor said I would
not be able to work hard, I have since
done the work for 20 people. Hood’s Sar
saparilla cured my husband ot the boils,
and we regard it a wonderful medicine.”

that Miss A. VI. Pri;.-, Station A.
St. Louis. Mo., would give an elegant
plated hook spoon to any one send
ing her ten 2 cent stamps 1 sent
for one and found it so useful that 1
showed it to my mauds, and made
*l2 mi two hours, ink eg orders for
: the spoon. PL- • hook spoon is a
household necessity. It cannot slip
i into the dish or cooking vessel, being
he’d in place by a hook or the back.
The spoon is something housekeepers
have iwede ! ever since spoons first
invented. Any one can get a sample
spoon by sending ten “l cent stamps
to Miss Fritz. This is a splendid
way to make money around home.
