Exempt From Taxation.

The Battle Creek sanitarium has
won its suit against the city and here
after may be exempt from all taxation.
. For thirty years the sanitarium paid
taxes, and accumulated property,
valued at several hundred thousand
dollars. Their charter ran out on July
6, 1898, the institution was reorganized
under the benevolent laws of the state
ms a benevolent institution, known as
the Michigan Medical and Benevolent
Association. Since that time they
have paid taxes under protest, claim
ing that they were exempt under the
laws by which they were Incorporated.
Their taxes amounted to S5,245.35, and
they commenced suit against the city
for the recovery Of the same. The jury
was out five hours and returned YER
dict In favor of the santarium, with in
terest added. OF course the city will
carry the case TO the Supreme Court,
as the decision will be n vital one. If
the sanitarium wins in the end all of
the health food companies and other
institutions of the city propose to or
ganize rs benevolent institutions.

Toothbrush In Education.

THE gospel of the toothbrush" as
General Armstrong used to call It, is
q part Of our creed at Tuskegee. No
student is permitted to remain who
does not keep and use one. Several
times In recent years students have
come to us who brought with them al
most no other article. They had heard
from older students about our insist
Ing upon its use. One morning l went
with the lady principal on her usual
tour OF inspection of the girls rooms.
We found one room that contained
three girls who had recently arrived
at the school. When | asked them IL
they had toothbrushes, enc OF the girls
replied, pointing to brush. Yes,
SIR That is our brush. We bought it
together yesterday" 1t did not take
them long to learn a different lesson.
