A MILESTONE ON HIS NECK.
How He Got Rid of It.

Mr.. SIS occupation was such that he felt
the occasional need of a stimuIant. He
never intended to take more than one
drink-but he generally did. On rare oc.
casions he actually got full.
Though it never seriously interfered with
his business, he felt that it was reducin,
his health and success. He made freonenf
resolutions and broke them. He was
slowly gong down hill
Then he found Peruvian Bitters-and he
is now rapidly going up.
Peruvian Bitters are composed of the
world famous Peruvian Bark and other
medlclnal herbs of great value blended in
tlne Old California brandy. The invigorat-
ing and tonic effect of the Peruvian BARI
co-operates with the stimulating effect of
the brandy, but neutralizes its tendency to
Proouce an appetite for more. Peruvian
bltters satisfy the desire of stimuant-
quench the fire instead of adding fuel.
After taking this palatable and highly in
vigoratlng drink for while the desire for
alcohollc stlmulants is gone; the appetite
ana digestion are in normal condition: the
system is toned up and every function at
It's best. You continue to take Peruvian

could be disseminated among the teachers
that the association appropriate $3.50 for
printing the report; that the county and
city superintendent in the State be re-
CURED to transmit the report to all teach
ers IN their jurisdiction, and to set apart
one day In the institutes for the discussion
OF the matters contained in it. He also
recommended that these matters be freely
discussed, By persons competent to treat
them, in the daily papers.
AT the conclusion of the paper Mr.. Lin
scott was cordially applauded and the as
semblage united in singing 1.-The Soldiers
Farewell" under the direction of Miss
Brown.
A paper on High School Certificates
was then read py Fernando Sanford of
Palo Alto. He suggested that a rule be
established for the issuance of two High
School certitica tes one of which would be
for four years and the other for life, the
latter TO be granted only after the appIi-
cant had taught three years in High
School.
A long discussion ensued as to what dis
position should be made of the report. 1t
was finally adopted and $50 was voted to
have it printed and disseminated among
the teachers.
Professor George H. Howison of
Berkeley then spoke on 'The Correlation
of Studies in Elementary Schools; Re-

Among other things, the able speaker
said, all educators were agreed that the
elementary course should comprise read

Miss Packard's treatment of her subject
was interesting to the last degree. She
took her hearers on a romantic journey
through realms of poesy and song, sud-
denly stopping in out-of-the-way places to
call attention to some ancient legend or
historic shrine, and every now and then
recurring to her principal contention. that
children in school should be imbued with
a true and discerning love of the beautiful.
Her paper was received with many signs
of approval.
The last paper of the afternoon was read
by F. P. Dresslar of Los Angeles on 1.-The
New Psychology and Its Pedagogical Sig
niticance." The matter treated was some
what abstruse, but the essayist handled
his subject we'll. He conteuded that
psychology as at present understood is not
new, but simply development of the old
science as taught in the ancient schools.
He said that introspection should be the
cardinal rule of all study, and that the
teachers first duty ought to be the cult
walton of the pupils mind since the mind
must be prepared to receive knowledge be-
fore 1t can learn in the true sense. Some
little discussion followed, after which an
adjournment was taken.
In the evening the members and their
friends assembled in the High School
building to enjoy delightful promenade
concert. The auditorium had been beauti-
full by day, but it was indescriba bly, charm

marked by all the evidences of deep
thought and extensive acquaintance with
his subject. He laid much stress upon the
training which he opined should be under

and his ideas throughout were lucidly and
brilliantly presented.

with piaro accompaniment by Miss Mabel
