The Daily Press, of Lynchburg
says:
Nothing has created laore stir
for some time than the discussion
of the school book and ink uestion.
AS the Stroller is not an ink expert
and has no knowledge OF exactly
how much lux is needed for a pupil
in the city schools, he has no hing
to say about the Justice of the kick,
but he has moro than once looked
into the school book matter, and
knows that school books and school
paraphernalia cost too much. s .hool
books shOuld be sold at the sam
price as anything else in guam tiles.
That there are scientific and other
books that require great expense
and labor which come high rightly,
thsre is no question; but the average
book used in the primary and gram
mar grades of the public schools are
worth but little moro than the cost
OF the paper, ink and bin ling.
Take one of the little readers or
Tales of Troy" and compare 1t
with some book twice the size, print
ed on better paper, and you will
find that the school book comes
twice as high. If old George Pea
body could come TO life again and
see how much the children of the
public schools of Lynchburg have to
pay for books, he would withdraw
every cent Of he could) that comes
az nually to the State"
Exactly 80. Somebody is making
barrels Of money out of school books
in Virginia. There is no reason
why school book should be worth
more than any other book. Our
schools are not Gree" except in
name. BY the time you get through
you have paid pretty good tuition,
especially If there are several chill
dren in the family. If the legisla-
ture will probe this matter next
winter, as they ought to do, they
will likely find that fraud is being
perpetrated upon the people OF tho
State.

The Wilmington Star says there
are two sides to the so-callcd claims
of the returns of prosperity with
the advance in the price of wheat
and corn. 1t admits that there is
reason for rejoicing because the
bulk of the money which goes into
the hands of the farmers goes out
again in payment of debts, or for
something the farmer needs, but it
notes the fact, also, that out of the
forty-nine States and Territories I'm

wheat enough to feed their own
people, and that all the others who
do not produce wheat and have to
buy at higher price, are not ben

ONE OF TWO WAYS.

The bladder was created for one pur-
pose, namely, a receptacle for the
urine, and as such 1t is not liable to
any form of disease except by ono or
two ways. The first way is from inn
perfect action of the kidneys. The
second way is from careless local treat
ment of other diseases.
CHIEF CAUSE.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy
kidneys is the chief cause Of bladder
troubles. So the womb, like the blad-
der was created for one purpose, and if
not doctored too much is not liable to
weakness or disease, except in rare
cases. 1t is situated back of and very
close to the bladder, therefore any
pain, disease or Inconvenience mani
tested in the kidneys, back, bladder or
urinary passage is often, by mistake,
attributed to female weakness or womb
trouble of some sort. The error is east
ly made and may be as easily avoided
To find out correctly, set your urine
aside for twenty four hours; a sedi-
ment or settling indicates kidney or
bladder trouble. The mild and extra
ordinary effect of DIR. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, the great kidney and bladder
remedy is soon realized. If you need
medicine you should have the best.

The British house of commons sat in
committee several hours Monday on the

and he would advise the United States
to watch very carefully the erection of

Sir Charles Dixie, member for the Forest
of Dean. replied that fortified coaling sta
tons would be an absolute necessity TO
Great Britain on the American side of the
Atlantic IN the event of a great war. Most
OF England's food supplies came from
America. 1t was improbable that the
United States would ever be opposed in
war to England, and the use of the Ber-
mudas as basis Of British naval opera
tons on the American side of the Atlantic
was in no sense whatever directed against
the United States.
The bill was finally reported to the house
without amendment.
