THE BHHetW misunderstands the
STARS attitude on the Dangerous
Persons Act. We believe such a
law was needed at the time it was
introduced, and that it may be
needed now and in future; but a
fatal error was made in launching
it for moral effect only" and let
ting that object be known. A
spring gun has a moral effect on Il
burglar if it is loaded and will go
off when tempered with; but not
when it is put in place without
trigger attachments and with a sign
on that it has a scarecrow mission
only. To the STARS mind it were
better to have no Dangerous Per
sons law at all than to have one
which amounts to no more than the
Sedition law dOes-a statute which
long ago lost its moral effect because
it was not seriously used to represi
the open and avowed enemies OF the
State

THE reforms proposed for the
educational system Of these Islands
bear the stamp of good sense and
long experience. Among them
are competent superintendent for
each Island, serving under the In
spector-General of the group; the
abandonment of moribund native
schools for those which shall use
the English language; examina-
atoms and certificates, for teachers,
covering ability toinstruct and moral
character teachers institutes and
a set standard Of teachers salaries.
Most Of these provisions are now a
matter of course in the United
States and it seems strange that the
spread and root of American in
fiuences here has not given them
to us. Has not the time now come
to bring about the changes and
improvement which the best Of our
teachers suggest?

UNSUOPECTED DANGERS
That is What We All Suffer the Most
Prom.
AND KNOW THE LEAST ABOUT.
The Surprising Experience OF the
wire ofOne or New K0rk's Best
Business Mem

There are men, and women, too, who
are suffering with dull and indefnate
pains in various parts of the body, who
feel unaccountabIy weary, who are often
feverish, have loss of appetite, strange
bearing down sensations, general feelings
of melancholy and who do not know the
reason
1t is surprising how much these troub-
les are increasing, and it is marvellous
that so few people know what they mean.
There is but one cause for all these
things and that is-disordered kidneys.
All these troubles are the first SYMPTOMS
of Bright's disease of the kidneys, which,
unless promptly checked, is certain to
result in serious sickness or death
There is nothing SO little understood, yet
so dangerous,a as this great modern disease.
1t attacks people in all walks of life,
steals upon them unawares, and fixes
itself upon the life before its presence is
realized.
It is fortunate that medical and chemi-
cal science has discovered remedy for
this great modern monster Any man or
woman suffering from the first symptoms
of Bright's disease can positively be re-
Heved of these SYMPTOMS and restored to
perfect health by acting promptly and
taking the right remedy in time. There
is but one certain cure for all these trOub-
les and that is Warmers Safe Cure. This
is not an idle statement, but one which
has been tested and proven in the expert
ence OF thousands of sufferers in both
continents. Testimonials innumerable to
this effect could be given. Here is one
from the wife of Mr.. d. W. Warren, a
well known and prosperous New York
merchant, whose place of business is at
Nos. 12O, 122 and 124 Franklin St Mr..
Warren says:
@About eight years ago my wife was
troubled with what she thought was rheu-
matism- The doctor insisted upon it
that she had Bright's disease and inform
ed her that she was in such deplorable
condition that it was impossible for medi-
cine to do her any good. My wife had
heard of Warmers Safe Cure through
some of her lady friends, who call upon
her from time to time, with whom she con-
versed about her illness, and they sug-
gested its use, though she had also read
about it herself and had formed a favor
able opinion of it. Immediately after
the discouraging Information impaired
to her by her physician she concluded
she would use the Cure and accordingly
she let her physician go. He was our
family doctor and a very reputable man.

Mr.. II. G. Zimmerman, Of Albion,

ter dog. This well is eight miles north
OF Huron, y. D.. and Is i.250 feet deep.
Everybody was confident that the rep
tile came from the well. as there Is no
other water for miles and miles. Is
head was shaped like that OF our COM
mon catfish. its color was similar to that
of the catfish, and it had bushy external
Gills. besides four legs.
Many conjecturcs ns to what the ami
NAL could be were made: some persons
thought it principally fish. others lizard,
and the most general conclusion was
that the thing was a mongrel between the
two. A genius (ProteusI belonging to
