this the best school year in

Since we have the eighth
grade added this year, we
think our school is different

schools.

grades, our lessons are interes-
ting aftd all of us are resolved
to master them with our tea-
chers’ guidance.
\ Our trustees oiled the floors
repaired the flag pole, andj
also bought three new water
buckets and new brooms. Now
the boys will have it easier
to carry water and the girls
will sweep the school quicker.

Mr. M. F. Fink, of Harrisburg, *
► N. C., says: "It must have been «
, fully twenty-five years ago that ,
. I began taking Black-Draught
regularly.
"I was in town one day, and
while talking to a friend I ‘
stooped over to pick up some- <
. thing. When I straightened up,
I felt dizzy. I spoke to him about
this and how I had not felt like
eating.
* *My friend told me to take <
some Black-Draught. I knew my
, mother had used it, and so I ,
( bought a package. When I got
, home, I took a good, big dose,
and the next night, another. In
a few days I felt much better,
that through the columns of "A good many times I have -
had this dizziness and a bad taste
in my mouth, or headaches, and
then I take Black-Draught and
get better. I do not have to take
it very often. We buy from five
to seven packages a year.” Try it! -

Lee Harmon of 1044 Rigsby
Avenue, San Antonio is a “re-
glar fellow,” active in Scout-
ing and at the top in his clas-
ses at Junior High School. To
look at him now, you’d think
he never had a day’s sickness
but his mother says: “When
Lee was about two years old,
we found his stomach and
bowels were weak. He kept
suffering for months from
constipation. Nothing he ate
agreed with him. He was fret-
ful, feverish and puny.
“When we started giving

few parishes in which the a
