JOHN McvEIGH RESIGNS

John d. McVeigh who has served as
the agent of the Board of Health since
1892, rendered his resignation this
morning to take effect the end of the
month. The cause for Mr.. McVeigh
resigning was his being appointed sup
erintendent of the United States Ma
rine Hospital service for the quarantine
station. This new position will not be
a difficult one for Mr.. McVeigh for he
has had charge of the work at the quar-
antine station until the outbreak of the
plague. He has many friends in every
department of the government service.

TRINIDAD HAIR.

A peculiar condition of the hair in a
negro child is described by a physician
in Trinidad, West Indies. Says the
Medical Record: 1.-THE hair grows luXu-
riantly and separates itself into thin
rope-like strands, made up of closely
interviewer meshes. The strands meas
ure from six to twelve inches in length,
The parts nearest the skull are black;
the distant ends are a pronounced red,
due to the exposure to the sun. The
condition is congenital There is much
superstition among the natives affected,
and children are obliged to carry this
abnormal mass until they are old
enough to cut it away with their own
hands. After cutting, the condition does
not recur."

KAsToL is nothing but the finest
castor oil made perfectly palatable
by new process. 1t is as pleasant
to take as honey. It is ready
for immediate use; requiring no
mixing.
There isn't any question about
castor oil as a true laxative
medicine; there isn't any question
but it is the most unpleasant,
nauseating dose ever prescribed.
But KAsToL possesses all the
medicinal properties of castor oil,
with the bad taste eliminated.
Children need no coaxing to

Recognizing the great work done by
birds In protecting the farmers crops

sugg estions as may occur as to the best

for commercial purposes, together with
any other consideration that you think
will be OF interest. They are also invited
to write briefly upon any other subject
relating to farm work In which you may
be- particularly engaged or interested, and
are far as possible, after the bird articles
are printed. it will be used.
I'm the bulletin for July we shall con-
slider those birds which are, or which
under certain circumstances may become,
harmful to the farmer. We shall be very
glad to answer all questions. We have
now botanist and entomologist TO
whom we refer all questions relating to
plants and insects, and shall be glad to
extend this branch Of the bulletin as full
~ as possible"

broke, and conditions seemed as bad as

sat the Dutch skipper, reading book

PUBLIC SCHOOLS IN MANILA.
Washington Cor. Cleveland Plain-Deal

Supt. Anderson Of the public school S
of Manila has made most interesting
report to the war department regarding
the progress he has made in establishing
a common school system modelled after
the American plan. His report Is most
gratifying for he says that thus far his
efforts have met with success TO a great
a degree than was anticipated.
The obstacles were many that Supt.
Anderson had to overcome. In the first
place there was a dearth of suitable build
ings and in the second place there were
In existence no text books suitable for the
work. 1t was desired to instruct the
children in English.
The teachers got along as best they
could during the year just closed and
next year specially prepared text books
will be used. They will consist OF a series
of elementary readers, modelled some
what after the American readers, with
attractive pictures, etc.
There will also be used elementary text
books on the history of the United States
one ON geography. These Will be printed
in Spanish and are for immediate use.
The English language will be taught
by means of primary text book, called
First Lessons in spanish English.
This book will give the English equiya-
lent for expressions commonly used in
conversation.
In his report Mr.. Anderson says that
the Filipino children have eyinced a
marked willingness to learn, He says
they are prompt at school and that even
in the rainy season there We're very few
absentees. They are quick to grasp a
subject and he expects to make marked
progress during the next school year
which will open in September, after the
long vacation.
He believes that the education of the
children will go a'long way towards
making the natives submissive to Ameri-
can authority.
