Several of our farmers are through with their first crop of al falfa. Next week the grain hay will be ready to cut. Our school closed Friday with a nicely executed program of well selected pieces and songs. On . all sides were heard regrets that the school was not going to last longer. A petition was circulated last week dv Mr. Gee, asking for help for Mrs. Rodgers, who was lately burned out. People generally gave something and the unfortunate family will soon have a new home to move into. Dr. Patterson, of Central Point, found time between his prosessional calls to visit friends here last bun dav afternoon and joined in some music and songs. Come again doctor, when vou are not so crowded for time. There are several breechy horses roaming around this country. As a consequence many fences and crops suffer. Uwmra might save some expenses by loosing alter them as people are talking of tak ing them up. Farmers are very patient, but they must protect themselves. J. O. Johnson with his family came out last Sunday. After look ing over the old home they at tended the Children s day exer cises, then they lunched with Table Rock friends and after a couple or hours spent in visiting and sing ing they left to join some Medford friend 8 on the river to finish the day. Mr. and Mrs. Johnson can get as much pleasure out ol ne dav as anyone and we all wish they would join us often. As per last week a mention Children's day was remembered by our Sunday school.

Mrs. Jas. Guerin, nee Mis3 Sallie Brown, formerly of Jackson ville was one of the leaders. There is considerable indignation felt here because that at the child ren's dav exercises, last Sunday, W.I. Boosey took occasion to censure Messrs. Nickell, Colvig, Jacobs and Prim, personally, for not attending even meeting ol the league ana Lndeavor. and because they sent their children to Sunday school and do not attend themselves. Just why this thing is permitted in a hoi 8) of worship is past finding out by your correspondent. Instead of making mends for the church such little acts as these tend rather to repulse. It hardly seems the correct thing for Mr. Boosey to take advantage of the absence of those above named to heap upon them the unmerited cen sure be did . A SUCCESSFUL YEAR AT ST.

It Jias grown from 500, or thereabouts, on January 20, 1893, to 1700 on May 15, 1896. For the past six months an ac tual count has been kept of the number of papers printed each week.

Hood's Sar saparilla purifies,enriches and vitalizes the blood, giving new life and increased vigor and vitality. Hood,s Pills are easy to take, easy to operate. Cure indigestion, biliousness, headache. ntNtrihntinn of class honora. Validlctory Miss Julia OlweU Finale Miss Olwell received many com pliments in the graceful manner in which she rendered her essay. Rev. Father Desmarais presented her with a diploma and gold medal also medals to other ' deserving dudUs. This address was one of interest and thoroughly enjoyed by the audience. The entire program was rendered in a manner greatly to the credit of all participants. More Curative power is contained in Hood's Sarsaparilla than in any other similar preparation. It costs the proprietors and manufacturer more. It costs the jobber more and it is worth more to the consumer. More skill is required in its preparation and it combines more remedial qualities than any other med icine. (Jonsequently it nas a record oi more cures and its sales are more than those of any other preparation . Hood's Sarsaparilla is the best medicine to bu because it is an honest medicine au thousands of testimonials prove that it does actually and permanently cure dl sease. 8wdish Simplicity. Miss Margaret Howitt, in her work, "Twelve Months with Frederika Bre mer," tells several curious anecdotes illustrating the simplicity of the lower classes in Sweden. Thus, two servant were given tickets to go to the theater, from which they soon returned. "You suraly have not been?" asked the mis tress. "Oh, yes!" they answered. "W went to the theater and sat there till suddenly a curtain drew up and some ladies and gentlemen began talking to gether; but as it was on family mat ters, we felt we were intruding and so came home." Invitations to Chines Dinners. The Chinese send three invitations to the guests that they desire to see at their great repasts. The first is dis patched two days before the feast; the second on the day itself, in order to re mind those they expect of their engage ment, and the third just before the hour has struck, so as to show how impatient they are to see their frienrlstrrive. The U, S. Gov't Reports show Royal Baking Powder superior to all others, .
