The long-expected current events
contest of the civil government class
came off at the High School last Thursday. Miss Callle Smith received first
honors, Miss Blanch Mead, second and
Miss Eva Schairer, third. First prize
is a subscription to the "Pathfi nder",
second and third prizes are books.
These examination papers, we understand, were most exeellent as may be
seen from the parts given below, and
were so uniformly accurate that the
judges had to examine them very
closely in order to assign the places.
The following also presented papers
that are worthy of honorable mention:
Luther Briggs, Campbell Leith, Minnie
"Warner, Arthur Davenport, Fannie
Friis, Frances Traver.
Current events are matters of interest to all and we therefore g've the
first prize paper entire. Next week
we- will run parts of the other two papers.

No 5 Mistake of the Rspublicans in the
New York campaign?
The Republican parly in Greater

Seth Low, because Low was wanted for
inavor by tho bast ci tiz 'ns and by the

would have been elected by a plurality
of about 20,000 votes.

permit the dealer to sell you some substitute. He will not claim there is anytning
better, but in order to make more profit he
may claim something else to be just as
good. You want Dr. King's New Discovery

Just as

as Scott's and wc sell it much
cheaper,"" fs a statement sometimes
made fcy the druggist when Scottr*s
Emulsion is called for. This shows
that the druggists themselves regard
's
of Cod-Liver Oil with Hypophos-
phites of Lime and Soda as the
standard, and the purchaser who
desires to procure the "standard"
Because he knows it has been of
untold Benefit, should not for one
instant think of taking the risk of
using some untried prepa-j
ration. The substitution
of something said to be
"just as good" for a standard preparation twenty-
five years on the market,
should not be permitted by
the intelligent purchaser.
