TAKING A CHANCE.
School Board Stretches n Point TO
Accommodate a Friend.

Acc0mmO date a Friend.
Local school officials find themselves in
somewhat Of dilemma over the assign
ment of Prof. F. G.. Miller to the position
made vacant in the teaching staff at Cen
trail high school by the death of NJ SIS Aus
tin. There is rule:.of the state high
school board which requires that, to be
eligible to the $500 state aid, high schools
must conform to a number of ru'es laid
down by the board, and one of these rules
is that all teachers must have fist
grade state professional teachers certif-
icate. Prof. Miller does not possess the
required credential, and as a consequence
there has been "a bit of contriving to get
around the law on the partSof the friends
Of Prof. Miller and those interested in
keeping him in the position, To date,
however, no way out of the predicament
has been suggested, except that Prof.
Miller be given back his position as prin-
cfpal of the Mattoeks school. With the
failure to secure the state aid for the
teachers training school staring them in
the face: there is no disposition on the
part of school officials to- endanger any
other appropriation for the schools, either
by carelessness or in Difference to wishes
of any Individual member of the board,
Preliminarys examinations in a part of
the subjects for the drst grade certificate
will be given tomorrow and next day,
but this Is aonly a -smaHe pertion-of the
larger number Of subjects that will be
taken up at; the examination in August.
AS result, at the very. earliest possible
moment Prof.yMiller would not be able to
secure the required certificate before next
September, in case he passed the required
standard in all the subjects.
Prof. Miller Is popular with certain
members of the school board, and there
has been disposition to strain the point
in his favor He possesses the diploma
of. a college that Is not recognized by the
state department, but is regarded as a
scholar and a capable school official.
Supt. Smith was seen yesterday and
stated that Mr.. Miller had never been
permanently assigned to the Central high
school, and that he was only temporarily
filing the place. However, it is known
that Mr. Miller had a friend at court, and
it was intended that he should have Miss
Austins place The longer he is allowed
to teach at Central the greater danger
there is that the state high school board
may cut off the Central high school from
the state aid A.vacancy will therefore be
declared at Central within a few days,
when one Of the large number Of deserv-
ing teachers will receive a merited pro-
motion from the graded schools to the
high school.

White Bread
STARVES
MANY
PEOPLE
The Reasons are Told
Below.

A piece of bread that is dry, white and
very light in weight seems to the thought
full person like SO much foam or other
useless and non-nourishing product.
If one rolls piece of moist, light bread
or the interior of a biscuit between the
fingers, ball of dough is the result,
with an appearance Of soldity that
makes one question how the gastric juices
of the stomach can dissolve such wad
1t is small wonder that such food Gre
ates havoc in the way of fermentation
and gas and consequent disorder.
Many dyspeptics will find great help by
leaving off the ordinary bread entirely
and using in it's place Grape Nuts, In
which the starchy and heterogeneous sub
stances have been thoroughly and per-
fectly cooked at the factory before be-
ing sent out.
There is no possibility Of the food as
Stunning the form Of wads of dough. On
the contrary, the food is already predi-
gested, the starch of the grains has been
changed into grape sugar in the process
of manufacture and passes quickly and
directly into circulation.
Grape-Nuts furnish the elements needed
by the system to rebuild, particularly the
soft gray matter in the brain and
throughout the nerve centers in the body
This statement will be verified by use of
the new food. 1t is delicious enough to
recommend itself upon trial.
All frst-class grocers sell Grape-Nuts,
and the Postum Co., at Battle Creek,
Mich, make them,

What Does This Lack?
Surely St. Paul Readers Cannot Ask
for Better Proof.

Can the 81. Paul reader ask for more
convincing proof than testimony pub
lished everyday from representative cit
liens of ST. Paul? If so, what sort of
proof can 1t be? Read this:
Mrs George Austin, of 4401a Aurora
avenue, says: Mr. Austin's experience
with Doan's Kidney Pills has given him
a very high appreciation Of their merits.
A deranged condition Of his kidneys, one
Of the inheritances of army life during
the Civil war, caused him quite little
suffering He procured Doan's Kidney
Pills from F. NJ Parker's drug store,
corner Wabasha and Fifth streets, and
their use had such beneficial effect that
if others are helped as much as he was
there would seem to be little occasion
for suffering from kidney trouble when
Doan's Kidney Pills can be obtained"

MERRY CHRISTMAS.
AS OBSERVED ON DOUGLAS IsLAND.-A JOY
 ous HOLIDAY.

The celebration of the Christmas holiday has become so universal a GUS tom that very few there are indeed who stop to analyze the motives that impel them to observe the day. To the chris tian. Christmas is the anniversary of the birthday of the Christ child, who came heralded by songs of angel choirs as a Savior of all mankind. But the observance of the day extends to large numbers of people who have not ac. cepted the meek and lowly Nazaripe as the Christ, and to others who look upon Him only as the exemplification of a great principle. To these the day bears no especial significance, except as in memory's golden chalet time has stored sweet records of childhood's joys, when the old home circle was yet unbroken, and fathers voice and mothers smile and a sisters loving presence made the day a holy one in- deed
 Great preparations are always made on Douglas Island for the celebration of the Christmas festival, for while few of our people are wealthy, there are none abjectly poor, none whom the pinch of poverty denies tho privilege of participation in the felicities of this season.
 This year the shops and stores were even more crowded than usual, and the hundreds of turkeys, and fowls of all kinds, the oysters and cranberries, fruits, nuts and candies, that were car ried to the homes presaged good din ner.
 The public celebration began on Monday evening Christmas Eve.) at s o'clock at the Congregational and Friends churches.
