Society IT will soon be time for the good lady of the house to suddenly make up" her mind to begin semi-annual, lunacy pro­ moting exercise known as house clean­ ing. Simultaneously the good man of the same house will as suddenly make up his mind to remember that he has an en­ gagement out of town for a few days. And, although be does not know it, that is just what the good lady wants him to remember, for that husband does not live who can hold even half a candle to the work that a zealous determined and energetic wife can do if no man building costs, as it now stands, in the neighborhood of f10,000, and we doubt if ever a building of this kind was ever before built so economically and at the ^same time so well done in every part. ^Che Contractors, L. Lightheart <fcSon, of Waukegan, are deserving of more than a passing notice in this connection.-- While working under great disadvanta­ ges on account of the strike in Chicago and other causes incident to a job of this kind, they never allowed the work to be slighted in any particular, either in ma­ terial or workmanship, and we are told by the building committee that they not only done all that their Contract called for but even more, making many changes and adding other needed parts not down in the Contract, and without extra charge. In short they more than fulfilled their agreement and are justly entitled to the thanks of the District for the work so satisfactorily and promptly done. They are honorable, square-deal­ ing gent'emen and the Board of Educa­ tion of McHenry will take pleasure in recommending them as such wherever they may go. The school building here stands as a monument to their skill and integrity. To the Board of Education, and espec­ ially the building committee, Isaac Wentworth, great praise is due for the unselfish manner in which they have given their time in superintending the building otthis structure, without fee or reward, except the criticism which one is sure to get in such a position. It is a thankless task but tliey have stood by it faithfully and their regard is the satis­ faction of knowing that it ia done and done well. In conclusion we wish to say to all res­ idents of the District who have not already done so, call and look the build­ ing carefully over, and see for yourselves that all we have said for it is true. See­ ing will convince you. AN exchange says: "I don't want to be either an angel or a Methodist minis­ ter, and 1 don't think I have qualifica­ tions for either of these exalted positions. The vgay these poor Methodist clergymen are pitched about from pillar to post, without so much as "with your It ave or by your leave," must be a great trial to mortal patience. The conferences have just turned their annual whirligigs and there is a world of unrest and bitter dis- satinfaction. The mutterings are not Io:id but deep. Still I think that for real bred-in-bone Methodists there ia nothing as good as Methodism." uin. w«re visiting rel- Kee have been ebraaka. wife returned from Jampfiatabt atives i« Elgin] Misses Ella and visiting relatives in E.

HONOB TO A UoEENBT ARTIST. The following which we clip from the North Adams, Mass., Transcript, of Sep­ tember 27th, will be highly pleasing to the many friends of Miss Clara B. Owen, in this village, her old home. It speaks for itself. Miss C. B. Owen, a prominent artist of New York cit.y, has been in town for two or three weeks, engaged in portrait paint­ ing. She was induced to come here by S. Proctor Thayer and his sister, Mrs E. A. Wright of New York, to paint the por­ trait of their father, Hon. Shepherd Thayer, and the work, which was com­ pleted several days ago, is ext'emely satisfactory and gratifyingto thefamily, as well it may be, for there is little risk in saying that it is the bent specimen of portrait painting to be found in this section. The artist has succeeded in making a picture strikingly true to life. Not only are the features an exact reproduction of the original, but Miss Owen has succeeded in catching what artists sometimes fail to do, the natural expression of the face to a degree that may be said to reach perfection. It is really as life-like a picture as one ever looked upon. Every feature stands out perfectly as in life, and the naturalness of expression is as wonderful as it is pleas­ ing. It does not seem possible that a human face could be so faithfully repre­ sented upon canvas, and how it is done is a secret Known ouly to those possessed of the genius of an artist. The back­ ground, unlike most of those of the old- time paintings, is of a light shade, and with such delicacy was the work done that it hardly seems to be a part of the picture, but something in the rear of and separate from the portrait. The twinkle of the eve, a marked characteristic of Mr. Thayer's countenance, if fully maintained in the picture, and the expression of the mouth could not be perfect or nat­ ural. The portrait is indeed a work of high art and is very highly appreciated by Mr. Thayer's family and all of their friends who have seen it. The portrait of Mr. Thayer was so emi- r&a nently satisfactory that it was decided to v,. have Mrs. Thayer's portrait painted ulso|( j. LIST of letters remaining uncalled for, in the P.

Opposite Riverside House,. and in this work Miss Owen has achieved , another equally pronounced success. All s that has been Baid of the picture ofor® Mr. Thayer may be truly said of the- other, and the two show MissOwen to be"'8 possessed of the genius and instincts of a'ial true artist. The portraits will be appro-ive priately framed and will rank with theian choicest possessions of the family now. a and in the years to come. W jc Miss Owen has also painted, from a Cm photograph, a portrait of Mr. Thaler's daughter, who died thirteeu years ago. This is also an excellent picture, although it is impossible to get so good an expres­ sion from a photograph as from life. Miss Owen's method is to have her sub­ jects take a book or paper and busy themselves with reading, looking up oc­ casionally fs desired. She also likes to en­ gage them in pleasant conversation oc­ casionally in order to study their facial expression. Since completing tbe above portraits she has begun work on a few others, the excellence of those mentioned having re­ sulted in several unsolicited orders. Among the subjects on which she is now engaged is the young son of A. J. Withe­ red. This will be a beautiful picture and one that the artist will take special pleasure in painting, as the production of children's portraits is one of her chief delights. She also makes miniature por-5 traits in water colors on ivory, which are very life-like and beautiful. Miss Owen has studied in Paris under some of the bestinstructors and herwork shows exceptional oualifications for the vocation to which she has chosen to de­ vote her talents. She has painted the portraits of several prominent people, among them Senator Jones of Nevada, and if her life and health arespared there is every reason to expect that she will achieve both fame and fortune. Mrs. Wright has known her for a long time, and it was through this personal and friendly acquintance that her visit to $Js town wteooght GERMAN maiden not a thousand miles away, was caught the other day in tbe act of kissing Jerry, a pet calf.

A CHICAGO LADY WritesGents: Received yours of tbe 6th and was very much Surprised. I must say, however, I cannot praise Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin'enough. For the past six months I have been troubled with gastric dyspepsia and indigestion. I could not eat or sleep with any comfort and was really dead for want of food and rest. I tried may kinds of medicines, but none helped me until my husband brought home a bottle of your Syrup Pepsin. After taking a few doses I felt better, and using it two weeks now I can eat anything and go to bed and sleep, where before I could not, and life seems now worth living. If you wish to use this letter you are are welcome to do so. MRS. NELLIE P. CLOUGH, 647 Austin Av., Chicago. For sale by J. A. Story. 7ml Awarded.
