DIPHTHERIA AND THE SCHOOLS
The Disease Prevalent in Many Parts
of the State.

The State Board of Health is daily re-
ceiving communications from county school
superintendent announcing the closing Of
school buildings on account of the epidemic
of diphtheria now raging in different parts
of the State. To date there have been over
100 schools closed throughout a territory
which would be hard to embrace within
boundaries. The Board of Health claims
to have predicted this trouble at the time
the last Legislature convened. and asked
the State to appropriate money with which
to carry on an effective inspection of the
school buildings with a view to preventing
the spread of such diseases. DR.. j. N.
Hurry, of the board, says the rapid spread
of diphtheria is not to be prevented by the
action of parents alone. many children
are liable to have the germs of the disease
in their threats and not know it. Diphthe-
ria. in its original FORM is in instances
harmless to the person having 1t, as II
does not affect all threats alike. but the
moment ii is transplanted in another child
throat 1t becomes virulent and Will spread
in a deadly manner in a short time. Thus
far the health authorities OF the different
counties do not seem to have been able to
control the disease, and 1t is likely that
more schools will be closed before another
week passes. Another effort will be made
during the coming Legislature to have an
appropriation made TO pay for the proper
inspection of all school buildings in the
State, and in this manner perhaps, avoid
another experience like the present.

SOLDIERS OF THE 16OTH
CAPT. II. w. FoxwORTHY, ASSISTANT
SURGEON, SPEAKS OF THEM.
The Regiment Has a Fine Camp at
Observation-Disclosures at Camp
Mount Hospital.

Capt. +. w. Foxworthy, assistant surgeon
of the e-hundred-and-sixtieth Indiana
Regiment, now camped at Lexington, KY,
is in the city on few days leave. Captain
Foxworthy has been the executive officer
of the division hospital, Major Kyle of the
same regiment acting as brigade surgeon.
Surgeon majors are somewhat scarce at
Lexington, and as result the medical Of
ficers have moved up a peg in their duties.
most of the duties usually performed by the
lieutenants in the medical department being
performed by the contract doctors, of whom
there are about twelve at the camp.
Dr. Foxworthy says the men of the In
diana regiment, while at first somewhat OPP
posed to garrison duty and anxious to be
mustered out have become reconciled to the
inevitable, and will go to Cuba, Porto Rico
or the Philippines with good grace. The
cooler weather and the excellent camp near
the Kentucky city have improved the spirits
of the men, and the relations between the
officers and privates is apparently very
happy The men like Colonel Gunder their
commander. AS soon as a man is so ill that
he takes to his cot he is sent to the division
hospital. The Observation-Disclosures has
forty men sick, but with the exception of
twelve their cases are slight. The regiment
AdS lOSI DuL TWO uleH by disease, one from
typhoid and the other from meningitis, while
two lost their lives in violent way. One
of these latter broke his neck diving into
shallow stream and the other was shot
at Newport News. Oil stoves have been OBJ
tanned since the nights became cooler, and
these will be put into use soon as they
are needed.
The privates have floors to their tents, and
General Sanger has issued an order reQuir-
ing the floor of every tent to be white
washed underneath and the surface to be
scrubbed every day with dsinfectant DIR.
FoXWOrthy thinks this sanitary precautiOn
an excellent one. The location of the camp
is hne. 1t is on rolling, grassy ground. The
regiment would like to stay in Lexington
as long as possible. but fears it will be sent
to some Southern city for winter quarters
There is all the difference in the world
between Chickamauga and Lexington" said
Captain Foxworthy I'm Lexington the
people seem to strain every nerve to make
the stay of the soldiers pleasant. In Chat
tanooga they strained every nerve to get all
the money the soldier had, without giving
MIN proper return. In Lexington there are
special rates in every line for soldiers 1t
cost 81. 70 in Chattanooga to get khaki uni
form laundried; in Lexington 1t costs Is
cents The price of ice cream to civilians
IS 10 cents; to soldiers it is only 5. The
hotels make low rates, and everybody
strives to make the boys in blue have a
pleasant time at minimum cost. The wom-
en- are. very kind, and furnish delicacies

lon can of buttermilk as we marched by
and insisted on the soldiers helping them

THE MORTON STATUE.
A. G. Harris Writes that the Clay Mod
ell Has Been Accepted.

Addison c. Harris. of this city. who is now
in New York as one of a committee to
pass upon the Morton statue, in letter
to friend in this State. announced yester-
day that he. in company with Oliver T.
Morton. of Chicago. a son of Ex-Governor
Morton, had accepted the clay model of the
Governor, which is to be placed in Statuary
Hall at Washington. The work on the
statue has been at standstill for several
weeks on account of the dissemination of
the son of the war Governor to accept the
model because of incongruities apparent to
him. The Legislature appropriated 5000 re-
Gently to defray the cost of making the
statue. and now that it has been pronounced
as acceptable by the committee the work
will be rushed to completion. 1t will be fin
ished in italian marble, and when completed
will stand eleven feet high with its pedestal.

MRS. RORER, ON COMPLEXION.

Mrs. Rorer answers, in the Ladies' Home
Journal. an inquirer about good complex

that 1t is not a matter of outward applica-

to properly digest the starchy part of bread

SORRY THEY SIGNED 1T.
Consider Question
Relating to Meridian Heights.

The petition of William Bosom and 9TH
ers, who have asked that Meridian street
be changed so that it will take a straight
course through Meridian Heights, was con-
sidered by the County Commissioners yes
terday. There were about forty signatures
to the petition when it was first presented,
but it is claimed that twenty-three of the
petitioners desire to withdraw their names.
Mr.. Bosom claims that they have no right
to do this, while those interested In the Me-
ridian Heights scheme contend that the pc
titioners may demand the removal of their
signatures any time before the board takes
action.1he board reached no definite decision
yesterday and will probably not decide the
question until it has been considered by the
county attorney. Should the attorney con-
clude that the twenty-three names may be
taken off the petition there will not be
enough signatures remaining to warrant
the board in sending out viewers to look
over the ground AS Meridian street now
runs through the park it takes serpentine
course. The Meridian Heights Association
claims that if the street is changed it will
greatly interfere with the plans of those
who expect to build in the park.

PECULIAR POISONS.
GENERATED IN THE HUMAN body.
The Result of Imperfect Digestion of
Food.

Every living thing, plant animal, con-
tains within itself the germs Of certain de-
cay and death
In the human body these germs of disease
ard death Called by scientists ptomaines)
are usually the result of imperfect digestion
of food, the result of indigestion or dys-
pepsia.
The stomach, from abuse, weakness, does
not promptly and thoroughly digest the
food. The result is a heavy. sodden mass,
which ferments (the first process of decay,
poisoning the blood making it thin, weak,
and lacking in red corpuscles, poisoning
the brain, causing headaches and pain in
the eyes.
Bad digestion irritates the heart, causing
palpitation and finally bringing on disease
of this very important organ.
Poor digestion poisons the kidneys, caus-
ing Brignt's disease and diabetes.
And this is so because every organ, every
nerve depends upon the stomach alone for
nourishment and renewal. and weak diges-
ton shows itself not only in loss of appetite
and flesh, but in weak nerves and muddy
complexion.
The great English scientist, Huxley, said
the best start in life is sound stomach.
Weak stomachs fail to digest food properly.
because they lack the proper quantity of
digestive acids Qactic and hydrochloric) and
peptogenic products. The most sensible
remedy in all cases of indigestion is to take
after each meal one or two of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets, Because they supply in
pleasant, harmless form all the elements
that weak stomachs lack.
The regular use of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets will cure every form of stomach
trouble, except cancer of the stomach
They increase flesh, insure pure blood,
strong nerves, bright eye and clear COM
plexion, because all these result only from
wholesome food well digested.
Nearly all druggists sell Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets al 80 cents, full-sized package,
or by mail by inclosng price to Stuart Co.,
Marshall, Mich, but ask your druggist first.

free. Address Stuart Co., Marshall, Mich.
