Yours truly,
ANOTHER IitTEXAYXII.
SCHOOL BOARD ECONOXY.

7b the Editor tfthe

Sin,—From what I have read lot the doings of the
above Board I am convinced that ecouomywill form no
feature in their proceedings. I well remember reading
the blue and red ink addresses of these gentlemen wheel
seeking the support of the iatepayers, and sesta on the
School Board, bow strikingly prominent stood the subject
of economy. but I am convinced now that this was used
ass mere pretext to secure a neat upon the new Board.
To descend from assertion to fact, allow me to drew Mut
attention of the ratepayers to what the Stourbridge School
Board intend to do inthe matter of school accommoda-
tion. In the first place provision is to be made to edu-
cate 324 children from the districts of the Gig Mill IRA
Soudan]. A site, the most inconvenient, eta coat of
more than £llOO to start with has been secured, and I
am told that buildings are in contemplation which will
cost when completed some £5OOO. Thus MOO ratepayers
of Stourbridge will be saddled with a debt of more than
£6OOO in addition to any annual rate for the support ot
schools. I would here venture to any that another in-
stance of such contemplated extravagance is not to his
found in the Midland Counties. At Tipton the School
Board has just completed Buildings to aecommedate 600
children, nearlyd ouble the number for which school
room is sought in Stourbridge, ails cost of £3oolinalu4ing
some £l2O for cost of land, and were the Stourbridge
School Board b act upon such economical principles se
outlay of some 1500 would meet every requirement.
Yours truly,
ECONOMY.

THAT COIII7LTRION has always been held to be the no,
lovely in which the rose and the lily contend for mastery
or in which their beauty is blended. West sacrifices are
made to produce an appearance corresponding with the
combination, but they never succeed. Art cannot appro-
ach Nature The only arrangement that eau h. made to
render men woman independent of all expedients is to
freely Use RAGAN'S MAGNOLIA BALM. It preserves the
skin from premature wrinkles and farrows—render. it
smooth and supple, and restores the hue which may hare
faded through illness, exposure to • noxious atmosphere
the heat of summer or the frosts of winter. To he ohs
tamed of all Chemists and Perfumers throughout the
world. Price as. Id. European Depot : 114 and 116,

A BALL MEAD may not inaptly be compared to il home
witho.,t • thatching. It is exposed to the cold, and is alto-
gether unsightly in aspect. Resort may be had to • wig,
a scalp, or an assemblage of foreign hairs intermingled
with the scanty material of original growth still woash•
sated to the bare cigno: or but the effect is poor mid the
disguise too apparent. Let those whose mirror amerce
them of the approach of baldness or the Mealthy mania
of grey hairs snail the enemy in time. Let thin
employ the infallible restorative known as Mrs. U. A.
/ALLEN'S WORLD'S HAIR RESTORER, and laugh to morn
the impotency of years and their attempt to rob and
disfigure humanity. To be obtained of all Chemildn and
Perfumers throughout the world. Price 6e. Depot : 114
