then all trace of him was lost. The war

the full name instead of initials, and on
outer garments a convenient place

collar-band or of the end of the sleeve
where the full address could be
placed.

A Daily DsfAIcsf,on.

The Hon. John Kelly, the head and front
Of Tammany Hall, man OF strict integr1.
ty. an indefatigable worker, early at his
office, late TO leave, 50 burdened with BUSH
ness that regular meals were seldom
known by him, with mind in constant ten
sion and energies steadily trained, finally
broke down.
The wonder is that he did not sooner
give way. An honest man in all things
else, he acted unfairly with his ply steal
resources. He was ever drawing upon
this bank without ever depositing q coll
lateral. The account overdrawn, the bank
suspends and both are now in the hands OF
medical receivers.
1t is not work that kills men. It is irreg-
ularity Of habits and mental worry. No
man in good health frets at his work. By
and by when the bank Of vigor suspends,
these men will wondes- how it all hap
pened, and they will keep wondering tall
their dying day unless, perchance, some
candid physician or interested friend will
point out to them how by irregularity, by
excessive mental effort, by constant worry
and fret, by plurging in deeper than they
had right to 20, they have p oduced that
loss OF nervous energy which almost In.
variably expresses itself in a deranged
condition of the kidneys and liver, for it is
a well-known fact that the poison which
the kidneys and liver should remove from
the blood, if left therein, soon knocks the
life out OF the strongest and most vigorous
man or woman. Daily building up Of
these vital organs by SO wonderful and
highly reputed specific as Warmers safe

ness men can have that their strength will
be equal to the labors daily put upon
them.

County VS.. District Uniformity of Text.
Books.

A few weeks since The CoxMoswKAIrH
called attention to the law enacted BY
our last legislature, permitting county
uniformity Of textbooks, which article
we find attracted 20 much attention that
we again refer to the same subject.
Under the provisions of this law the
school Districts of any county may ut the
annual District meeting, August 18th, or
at any subsequent annual meeting
thereafter signify their desire for uni
formity of textbooks throughout the
schools of the county, and when such Q
desire has been expressed by . majority.
of the Districts of Q county Q committee
will be chosen and q list of books recon-
mended.
The fact that our lawmakers who gave
the subject careful consideration made
the law permissire and not cempulsary,
implies two sides to the question and
should receive the careful attention of
the voters of Districts before they vote
for county uniformity. Ever since the
organization of q public school system in
Kansas, the District has formed the
unit in all matters pertaining to the
management of the school. Under the
provisions of q law passed in 1879 the
school Districts throughout the state,
adopted series of books to be used for
five years. At the expiration of this
period, which was last year, many Dis
tricts changed books and introduced
new series; while others readopted the
same books that had been in use for
Eve years. As a result of this independ.
ant action the Districts of county have
several different series of books.
For these Districts to pass from this
system to county uniformity, signifies
heavy expense that must fall on rich
and Door alike. School book publishing
houses and their representatives would
enjoy such q change, but the people
must consider their own interest.
You may conceive of benefits to be
derived from county uniformity that
would justify this expense. 1fso, then
it is clearly your duty to vote for county
uniformity. But if on the other hand
you are not willing to take 50 important
a matter from your own District officers
and place it in the hands Of q commit
tee who may have no financial respon-
sibility it will be we'll for you to vote
against q change should the question
come up for consideration at your annual
District meeting.
The education Of our children, the
management of our schools, the best
methods of selecting and furnish
ing text books are questions
that are at best perplexing. There is
spirit of unrest that pervades the entire
body polite in relation to the question
of public schools. We may even 60
further, and say this spirit of unrest
of dissatisfaction with things that are
seems to be one ofman's inherent prin-
ciples.
"'Tis said that frail ipconstant man
Is ue'er content with what he h;
Each thinks he can in others tcan
Ahsppiness more pure than his"
In considering this question of rnifor-
nifty and change of books, the Districts
should be guarded by reason rather than
influenced by 4 spirit of unrest--7o-
