A WOMAN'S COMPLEXION.

1t is rank foolishness to attempt to
remove sallowness or greasiness of the
skin by the use of cosmetics, or ''locar'
treatment, as advocated by the beauty
doctors" The only safe and sure way
that woman can improve her COM
plexion is by purifying and enriching
the blood, which can only be accom-
pished by keeping the liver healthy
and active The liver is the seat of
disease and blood pollution Green s
August Flower acts directly on the
liver, cleanses and enriches the blood,
purifies the complexion. 1t also cures
constipation, biliousness, nervousness
and induces refreshing sleep. A single
bottle of August Flower has been
known to cure the most pronounced
and distressing cases of dyspepsia and
indigestion. New trial size bottle, %
cents; regular size, rs cents. At all
druggists.

From the Appleton Crescent we learn
that Fred Schultz, the young man who
died here last Tuesday morning as a
result of an accident of the North
western, intended retiring from the
railroad business in few weeks. He
also intended marrying a young lady
of Appleton at about that time, and had
purchased part of his furniture. A
week previous to his death he had wit
messed the death of fellow railway
employe in an accident, and the scene
turned him az ainst railroading. He
was formerly a member of the militia
company Of Appleton and of the basket
ball team of that company, and was a
very popular young man of the city,
possessed of excellent habits and his
tragic death is deeply deplored

CAUSE OF LOCKIAW.

Lockjaw' or tetanus, is caused by a
bacillus or germ which exists plentiful
ly in street dirt. 1t is inactive so long
as exposed to the air, but when carried
beneath the skin, as in the wounds
caused by percussion caps or by rusty
nails, and when the air is excluded the
germ is reused to activity and produces
the most virulent poison known. These
germs may be destroyed and all danger
of lockjaw avoided by applying Cham
berlain's Pain Balm which is an anti
septic and causes cuts, bruises and 10
;uries to heal without maturation and in
one-third the time required by the usual
treatment. 1t is for sale by all leading
druggists.

AMERIcANIzING PORTO RICO.
Education Is Advancing and Every.
thing Presages q Bright Future
for the People.

The work of making good Amerl-
cans out of the people of our new
territory in the gulf of Mexico is
going on with very creditable speed
and intelligence. In the annual re-
port of Hon. William H. Hunt, the
governor of Porto Rico, just made
public, there are some highly pleas
ing figures on education. In Janu-
airy, 1901, there were 6S2 schools open
In the island; in January, 1902, there
were SIS, and now there are 1,1O0
The number of teachers at the three
dates, respectively, are put at 72l,
934 and 1,126. The number of pu-
pills, which was 10000 at the first
named date and $4,000 at the sec
Ond, is now $1,000.
Manifestly, this is a very encour-
aging condition of things The lit
tie red schoolhouse," which was on
the front line of the American adj
vance from Plymouth Rock to the
Golden Gate, is in the van of the
American expansion in the islands of
the Mexican gulf. Education in the
common schools was practically un.
known at the time American sway
began in Porto Rico. There were
schools in the island under the
Spanish regime, but they were few
in number, were poorly equipped and
had only sparse attendance. The
public school system in Porto Rico
as known in 1908 dates from the be
ginning Of the American connection
