The liability to disease is greatly
iessened when the blood is in goodcon-

vigorous. For then all refuse matter
is promptly carried out of the system
otherwise it would rapidly accumulate
fermentation would take place, the
blood become polluted and the consti-
tuition so weakened that a simple

A healthy, active circulation means

LOVE WINS A LONG CHASE
SUCCESSFUL PURSUIT OF A BRIDE
FROM NEW YORK TO
EGYPT
PARENTS CAUSED THE HUNT
Sent the Daughter Abroad, but the
PIucIky Admirer Spends Years
in Finding His
Love.

Stony and rugged was the way to mat
rimony for Frank Case and his lovely
bride, who have just returned to Ameri-
ca and forgiveness, writes the Geneva
IN. " correspondent Of the New York
Journal The love pursuit-well, it was a
chase which led across the Atlantlc
and the Mediterranean and went as far
eastward as Alexandria, Egypt, and back
again to Europe before it ended. 1t Is
a pretty story and one which teaches the
moral that brave hearts and an honest
purpose are winning factors in love
chases as we'll as other things.
THE HERO.
Frank Case was a country boy, born
and brought up in the little hamlet of
Halls Corners, eight miles south of this
city. H is now twenty-siX years old,
quiet, modest, albeit determined man.
He was a bookish lad. When his school
mates were romping on the green he WAS
porting over his lessons.
At eighteen he had decided that a
teachers profession was the one best
suited to his talents, so he entered the
state normal school at 3rockport, where
he remained two years, graduating with
such high honors that he quickly received
q commission as principal of school
at Sarna, Steuben county.
This position he filled for two years and
then, through a Western teachers agen-
cy, he received a call to Spencer, Cay
county, Iowa.
1t was here that he met his fate, End
Lere his troubles began.

TAKE THEIR SEATS IN MAY.
County Superintendent's Of Public In
struction viii Not Be Seated
January l.

The county commissioners of Kan
sas, after the organization Of the board
in January, viii appoint los county
superintendent of schools to serve
until the second Monday in May.
This unusual proceeding is due to
the fact that the county superintend-
ents recently elected are not entitled
to take their official seats until May.
This condition was brought about by
a change made in the old law by the
last legislature.
Prior to this time the county super
intendepts elected in November and
inaugurated in January have taken
charge of their official duties in the
midst-of the school terms and more or
less unfamiliarity with the work made
the changes undesirable, in many in
stances.
This complication was presented by
the superintendent association to
the last legislature and the remedy
vas furnished.
Under the new law which provides
that superintendent shall take their
seats in May, it was argued that the
district schools of the state would be
closed at that time and the old super
intendent would not be interrupted
during their course and the new super
intendent would be given an opportu-
nifty to qualify for the office outside of
school hours.
There Is more or less detail work in
this Office aud the friends OF education
pointed out to the legislative commit
tees that the new system was much
more desirable than the custom of in
auguratinR these officials along with
other county officers in the first week
in January.

When age comes ont
An ingalls, IdyI.

A short time ago, the following paper
was found in John J. Ingalls, desk; it
refers to a visit to the site of his old
home on the river bluff in Atchison,
burned many years ago:
"Wss it on this planet We lived alone
and loved in youths enchanted king
dom, amid the forests and by the great
lonely rivere looking with mingled
gaze at the eastern bluffs Purpled by
the aut1mnaI sunset, or at the wan
face Of the moon climbing with sad
steps the midnight sky, or was it on
some remote star in some other life,
recalled with rapture and longing IN
utterable and unavailing? oh, death
in life; the days that are no more
"The crumbIing excavation scarce
discernible among the vines and weeds
and brambles, deserted and inacces-
sibIe, ancient as Palmyra or PersepOlis
in seeming, was this the thester where
on was enacted the Intoxicating drama,
the sweet tragedy Of human passion,
grief, joy and endless separation? Since
then, what devious WanderIngs of the
soul; what darkened vistas; what trepi-
dalton; what struggle ud-sOlace; what
achievement and defeat; what splendOr
and what gloom.
'The river flows, and the landscape
is unchanged. Nature mocks with her
permanenee the mutsbility of man;
and in that steadfast presence, recall
ling life's vanished glory, and bloom,
aud dew of morning, how worthless
aud empty appear all that time gives
compared with what it bears insatiabIy
away. How gladly would we exchange
the prizes Of ambition, and fame and
wealth, for the splendid conservation
Of youth-'WiId with all regret, the
days that are no more"

The decision Of the United States
supreme court on the Porto Rican tar
if question is looked for with a great
deal Of interest. There is considerable
anxiety manifest in Washington in re-
gard to the anticipated decision; and
congress viii not be asked to frame a
tariff law for the Philippines until the
decision Of the court is reached in the
Porto Rican case. The case was taken
to the court several months ago by a
New York importing firm handling
Porto Rican products. If the court
decides against the tariff it will be in
line with well-knOwn former decisions
that the constitution follows the flag.
If this is the decree Of the court-that
the Porto Rican tariff law was uncOn-
stitutiOnal-it viii also, practically,
settle the Philippine question. In that
event congress viii be called in to help
Mckinley let 60 and participate IN the
humiliating ceremony Of hauling down
the flag. If there's nothing in it for
the explOiters it viii be dropped like a

millions Of dollars and tens Of thous-
ands Of good American live to profit
and loss.

Do they ever call any indignation

the United States, and to work for 80
days on city rock piles for no Ofense

quite another thing.
