THOUSANDS DIE
From Exposure TO Infectious
Disease and Impure Air.
Important Points About ''PurifnG," the
Great DiSinfGCtant

In these enlightened days of the nine
tenth century it is an acknowledged
fact that ian ounce of prevention is
worth pound of cure" and that ounce
of prevention was never better exempli-
fed than in the use of the great disin-
fectant known as"Purifine." The public
has had many disinfectants brought to
their attention. Some were good, some
were bad, and some were simply indif-
ferent, but none ever yet placed on the
market combined all the many good
qualities OF "Purifne.' In the first place
it was left to the manufacturers of
"Puriiiue" to compound disinfectant
and antiseptic that would be odorless, a
most important matter, as users CT disin-
fectants well know that the odor of the
disinfectant. especially when in constant
use, becomes sickcning and disagreeable,
oftentimes az much 50 as the odor or
smell to be killed.
In a word, "Puriline" is odorless, and
ITS work, removal, not creating one odor
to cover another. 1t comes in highly
concentrated form, and when diluted
with two parts water there is not the
slightest odor, rendering it suitable for
places where food is kept. In the bath
| room, sleeping room or about the house
| generally IL is Indispensable.
Then again it is iion-poisonous, an all
important feature, {, il used carelessly
| by children or servants there are nc
harmful results. and il is absolutely safe
| to have around the house.
| As sample of its harmlessness il can
! even be used in in refrigerators, and, il
accidently spilled no harm is done, and
it is particularly adapted for this use
The uses for which "PurifiBe" is used are
almost limitless, and to enumerate then
would fill pages of The Post. For flush
! ing sewers, and for cleansing sinks
drains, barns, urinals, water closets
floor cloths and the bed clothes from
sickness or infection it is invaluable.
Then again the price is 80 low that /
can be used lavishly, and for hospitals
asylums, public buildings. hotels, restau
rants, school rooms, laundries, diaries
markets, stables, packing houses an
canneries where disinfectant is used i
large quantities, this IS point to b
considered. One gallon is used TO bar
tablespoonful to pint of water.

THE Shah Of Persia, just assas-
sinated, was one of the best of the
monarchs Of his class. He ruled in
darkness and rather mechanically.
Personally he loved horses and
hunting, which is a fair recon-
mendation for almost any man. His
failure as a reformer was made by
failure to carry out promises of ele'
waiting the common people. His
successor is said to be a man o.
modern ideas, Of plenty of energy
and boundless ambition seasoned
with desire to place the country
abreast of the leading nations of the
earth.

In apoligizlng Ito the other

the Tribune and speaking in
such glowing terms it does so
for the sole and solitary reason
that the publishers believe the
manufacturers to use only
the best material in Its
construction. The paper
reviews the history Of bicycles
to the extent of comparing the
American wheels with the Eng
ish make and the increased
demand that has existed within
the past fsw years for the
American make in preference
to its European cousin, and
finishes with this paragraph:

tative of such a factory the
works of the Black Manufacture

company which produce the
highest grade Of wheel and
which put it on the market

Of paid riders. The wheel made

possible practice and is cores

POLITICS IN THE SCHOOLS.

For once the HERALD is going to
agree with the Dispatch, and that is
upon the question of politics in the
schools. The public school system is
or should be non-politlcal, non-sec-
tartan institution, but sometimes we
get men at the head of the system
who introduce into the course Of study
topics that are political in their
nature, The Dispatch however is
weak IN one thing and that is in its
attack upon Prof. Strkyer the con-
ductor here, for as the Dispatch says,
introducing politics at the Normal.
A teacher who secures a conductors
certificate pledges himself to conduct
Normals according to the course of
study as LAID down by the state board
of education, which at present is made
up entirely Of republicans. This
board also prepares the questions to
be answered by the normal students
at the close of the course. The ex-
animation questions, and prepared
too by Mr., Stanley, the republican
state superintendent, given to the
normals that closed on the first of
this month, were In some instances
purely political. In one the student
was asked to point out the strong and
weak points of our present monetary
system. In another the question,
"What is meant by Free Coinage" is
asked. No one here knows what the
teachers will be asked at the exsmin-
alton that commences tomorrow, but
if some of them are of the same ma
tureas those asked at the June nor
mails, they will be of q political char
acter, and the scholar must be pre-
pared to answer them. These ques-
tions should be kept out Of the school

struction to his ideas; if populist, Re
teaches populism; and if a democras,
the scholars get the democratic view.
Just west of us in Norton county, the
LiberatOr, a populist paper is after
the republican conductor, Mr., Baker,
who is also county superintendent,
for teaching republlcanism at the
Norton county normal.
The question as to the coinage at
present was not raised at the normal
but at Prof, Stryker's boarding house
consequently it has no bearing upon
the normal.
The Dispatch quotes from the Cap
itaI a statement that the president
gets but $4,000 per year, and yet in
the Capital of a week later can be
found a long article showing that the
presidents position to be worth $780,
600 per year, just the figures Prof.
Stryker puts it at.
The Dispatch IS not worried over
the teaching of politics, but the kind
Of politics, for If the professor was a
republican, we do not think the Dis.
patch would object.
Mr.. Royce wrote the resolutions
passed by the recent republican con-
vention endorsing all the acts of the
present state officials, and as the re-
board of education puts these ques-
tions to the teachers, the Dispatch,
should not find fault if they are dis
cussed by a populist conductor from
that party's standpolnts. There are
many people in the normal who fud
no fault with the professors talks on
these topics,
The article was not however SO
much directed at the conductor, as 1t
was at Mr.. Tadlock, the county sup

TIE banks Of Chicago voted to raise
between $10,0O0,00O and $15,OOO,00O
in gold to help maintain the reserve
in the national treasury, yet the other
day several of these sane institutions
refused to exchange $1,000 worth of
gold for that amount of greenbacks
for a private individual.
O. W. Doyle of Louisville, KY,
came to that city tho other day to pay
off a mortgage of $1,000 on some
property. The wording of the mort
gage made it payable IN gold, but
supposing the phrase stood ouly for
legal tender currency he offered the
holder his greenbacks in settlement
The holder of the paper however de-
clined to accept the money, insisting
that he be paid only in gold.
"Very WE'LL" said Mr.. Doyle, 81 will
get you the gold" He then visited
several banks and tried to exchange
his greenbacks for the yellow metal,
but failed, Finally he found a bank
that would exchange if he was willing
to pay one-hslf of one per cent pre-.
MUM. This Doyle agreed to do and
with his $1,000 in gold in little bag
again sought out the holder Of his
mortgage and took up the paper.
