One of the greatest physicians in America said to lady patient the other day: eff you can keep your bowels active you will never need my services"
 Constipation is one of the most danger ous complaints It creates a disordered liver, and then follow sick-headaches, bii- iousness, loss of appetite, etc.
 A physician would first prescribe RaInOu's Tonic Liver Pill to open the bowels and clean out all the poisonous bile. He would then give you Ram0n's Tonic Pellets for purifying the blood, stimulating the appetite, and strengthening the system. The two medicines would cure you completely and make you feel better than you have felt for years. Ask your drug gist for RaInOn's Tonic Liver Pills. They cost 25c. box, and you get with them box of Pellets free.

Il is pleasant to note that our

Chang, the vieroy Of China, ha
received his wardrobe and will
again be able, to make a pre-
sentable appearance in public
| without rendering himself liable
to arrest. The Emperor has re-
conferred upon him the yellow
jacket, the peacock feather, the
baby blue socks, etc, ETC., Of
which, it will be recalled, the
willy old soldier and diplomat
was stripped a few moons back
for his failure to reverse the law

brings these tidings states that

realize that the Japanses al

fresh humiliation for the Mogul

Chang is made more significant
from the fact that China has
been massing an immense army
in Manchuria to head off the
Japanese and that the weather
in that section is against rapif
movements on the part of tho
conquering invaders.
At the same time, it remains
to be seen whether China's new
oyertures are sincere. She has
lied and deceived so often since
the outset Of the present strug-

relax her prosecution of the war
until the Mogul Empire has Civ

psasIenlas school Teachers.

A bill has been introduced in
the New Jersey Legislature TO
pension public school teachers
after a given period of service.
The policy Of this measure is q
|mooted question. Undoubtedly
there is no class Of toilers who
|ars NOR, deserving than these
mentors and molders of the
young. Their task is not only
IA responsible and exacting one,
but demands an infinite amount
o. tact and patience. Moreover,
public school teachers are more
or less public servants whose
energies are devoted to the gen.
eral good.
At the same time il is well 10
consider what the effect of the
precedent would be Of thus PEN
sioning a particular class. Pub
lie school teachers are not the
only workers whose labors
might constitute q claim upon
the public treasury. There are
many trades and occupations
which are q distinct advantage
70 the people collectively, and
II the principle Of pensioning all
persons who perform publ.
services were to e impartial,
applied Il would 9 impossible t.
tell 70 what extent il might moi
20. Whether il be as the ma.
tion, a state or municipality
the people should be on the alert
against countenancing the per
nicious doctrine that Govern.
ment owes any man or woman
a living. Without taking de-
finite sides on the question oi
pensioning public school teach
srs, however, IL would be more
20 the point 10 insist that these
toilers be adequately paid fol
services. Superintendent oi
Public instruction Croker just

fact that In New York State the

niggardliness 10 not only an out

We learn from telegram that
the japanese seem to have solved
for themselves the relative merits
Of the battleship and the cruiser,
which question is now agitating
congress in connection with the
proposition to provide for the con-
struction Of three new battleships.
While the Japanese cruisers, owing
to superior strategy in their man
lgement and great wariness in at
tack, supplemented by the indis-
pensable torpedo boat feet have
managed to obtain victories over
the Chinese feet in two cases, the
battleships of the Chinese, with
inferior management and person
mel have given such good account
K of themselves as to make it appar-
ent to the japanese that if ever
they hope to meet another naval
power in combat with a chance of
success they must themselves pos
sesses some of the great battleships.
1t is regarded as foregone con-
cluded that they will acquire the
Chimes battleships Chen-Yuen and
Ting Yuen (if the latter can be
raised) by conquest. But the ia
panese government is not content
to rest there, for advices received
by the navy department show that
they have placed contracts fol
building two great battleships that
will exceed the best Of our owr
ships in offensive and defensive
power. One of the contracts ha.
been placed with the Thame:
Iron Works, Of Blackwell. England
and the other with the Thame'
Iron Ship Building company, o.
London.
The battleships will be of IA,
75o tons displacement and 37'
feet long by 73 feet beam. Ar
arnory belt rS inches thick vii
extend for 226 feet along the side
over the vitals of the ships, which
will be propelled by engines Of "a,
900 horsepower and carry eaci
two Ia.inch guns, ten 6-inch gun
and q greet number of sma lie
machine guns. 1t will requir,
fully 5000 tons ofnickelsteel Har
