fiety through the most vicious element
II the newspaper world, this sanctimoni-
Gus hypocite attacked, most maliciously,
the character OF a woman who had pre-
viously enjoyed the condolences and re-
spect Of those who knew her. He had
his sensitive. refined woman arrested as
a criminal, dragged before a magistrate
and deeply Inundated. without any rhyme
or reason beyond the loose statements OF
an incorrigible girl, whose ~viciousness
and degenerate nature brought her TO her
grave. He caused this delicate woman to
undergo such mental anguish and torture
that she was completely Frustrated ana
brought close to deaths door.
Mrs. Eyler also owes 1t to the State OF
New Jersey to see that Bishop is ade-
duately punished for his unwarranted IN
reference. When he attacked her, he at
tackled the good name of the Common
wealth of which every Jerseyman is
proud. In exploiting to the world the
vile and ~unfounded charges dsaAn
Eyler, he ~arraigned the institution OF
which she was the head and the State
in which such a condition of affairs could
be found. He cast a foul stain on the
heretofore unspotted escutcheon Of New
Jersey and held the State up to the world
as the supporter of gross cruelty ana
injustice. That his accusations were false
has long peer known to those who are
acquainted with the inside facts OF the
case. and now that they have been 1u-
dicially branded as fake, those who nave
been elamoring for Mrs. Eyler's punish-
nent sbould hid their faces in shame,
and those who, like Bishop, perpetrateo
the outrage should be punished to the
full extent Of the law.

The trustees also reported that in the
matter of the organization of a Credit
Reporting Company for Hudson county,
such as Essex county has, they deemed
it worthy of further investigation than
had yet been made. The idea struck the
trustees favorably. They advised that a
committee of five be appointed to go to
Newark and interview men at the head of
the Credit Reporting Company taere and
find out on what terms and conditions a
similar enterprise couid be launched in
Hudson. There was considerable discus
sion. The association adopted the sug-
gestion of the trustees n appointed as
a committee to go to Newark:-Wllfam

True Economy

The difference of cost between a
good and a poor baking pow
der would not amount for a fam
iIy's supply to one dollar a year.
The poor powder would cost
many times this in doctors bills.
Royal Baking Powder may cost a little
more per can, but it insures perfect,
wholesome food. In fact, it is more
economical in the end, because it goes
further in ~leavening and never spoils
the food.
Royal Baking Powder used always in
making the biscuit and cake saves both
health and money.

color, from whftish gray to green, sometimes Of
blood: increased shortness Of breath, dull pains
in the chest. advancing emaciation with corre-
spending loss Of weight and strength profuse night
sweats. feverishness and diarrhoea, are prominent
symptoms. Of course not all these symptoms are
necessarily present In any one case, but some Of

acted upon at once.
If CONSUMPTION be recognized in its early
stages. the difficulty Of curing 1t is greatly lessen
ed, but that it can be cured even when its victim
is on the brink of deaths crater is an indisput-
able fact. 1t 1s a germ disease, and a system of
treatment that will destroy these germs and
store such waste as has resulted from their pres
ence will certainly and surely effect a cure.
No ONE medicine combines in itself all the prop
critics requisite for successfully curing consump
tion.

Preparations the most logical. advanced, scientific
and successful methods of cure
When DR.. Slocum first published his theory.
about twenty-five years ago. and asserted that
GONSUMPflON was contagious and durable
disease, he was laughed at by his fellow ply
sicians. But he was not discouraged. He went
on perfecting his System of Treatment, curing
thousands of patients each year, and waiting
patiently for the Endorsement and approval OF the
medical world.
And he did not wait in vain Strange to relate
the first open Endorsement came from abroad

the victim; sit doesn't amount to anything" But
it perhaps does amount to great deal. 1t may
be the first danger signal that has been sounded.
There has also been more less wasting away
