Nine out of ten ailments first show
themselves in constipation. Natures
warning, if left unheeded, means serious
chronic trouble later on. Medical statis-
tics show that a greater number of peo-
pie suffer from constipation than from all
other diseases Acembined. A great talk
is made about consumption, but if the
truth were known, constipation kills more
people than consumption. Within the
last few years medicine has been dis
covered and made known to the Ameri-
can people, of such merit in curing con-
stipation and its consequences that now
rye. ten million boxes of CASCARETS
are sold every year, the greatest sale ever
attained by any one medicine in the
world and this is the strongest proof that
it is the best and will do all and more
than claimed. If you are sufferer you
are not doing right by yourself or your
family if you fail to give CASCARETS
a trial, and right here we want to warn
you to get the genuine, because alf great
successes breed limitations. The genuine
tablet IS put in metal boxes and has the
word CASCARETS with the long-tailed
on the cover. Every Cascaret tablet

quent Rev. Father Thomas J. Ducey, of
New York; the Rev Charles II. Meade,

In the course of a somewhat lengthy
and interesting address on the subject
of Lincoln as a Statesman" President
Schurman of Cornell University said
Mr. Lincoln's reasoning power was,
il anything, more marked and unique
than even his faculty of perception.
Nothing indeed was intuitive with him
as it is with the poet or artist. To reach
correct views he needed time to weigh,
to consider, to balance, to compare, to
calculate, and his mind ranged back
wards from the present event to the
causes in which it originated and forward
to the effects in which it was likely to

TRUANT OFFICER WANTED

The Board of Education transacted
much important business on Wednesday
night
Reports showing that a number of the
public schools are minus fire escapes and
that a number are not adequately pro-
tected against fire or accident were sub
mitted by representatives of tbe Board,
and also by Chief Conway, Of the Fire
Department, who with Commissioner
,Zumbusch recently made an inspection
| of the schools with the Board of Educa
tion's representative John T. Row
land, the regularly appointed school ar
chftect, submitted the report on behalf of
the representatives of the Board of Edu-
cation, and he and Fire Chief Conway
| agreed in general on what was necessary
to make each building safe, except on
one building. Fire Chief Conway thinks
that No 6 School should be closed and
pulled down and new school erected in
it's stead. Architect Rowland reported
that the building, with some alterations
and proper equipment with fre-escapes
on the outside. can be made safe. The
reports We're referred to Committee of
the Whole.
The question of properly equipping the
school building with fre-eseapes was re-
garded by all the Directors present as be-
! ing of so much Importance tina. v.s as
certaining that all the menp1ers could not
ret together before next Thursday night,
- ghieh night had been fixed upon for the
( final inspections of the plans and specifi-
cations for the new High School building
now on the stretching boards in Archi-
| tect Rowland's Office. it was decided to
| postpone such inspection until some fu-
| ture time and devote next Thursday night
to a discussion of the reports on fire.

Another interesting matter was the
decision to request the Finance Board to
appropriate $1,000 with which to pay
| the salary of truant officer and to re-
quest the Police Board to detail four
men to assist such truant officer to en-
force the laws against truancy. The
Rev. Father Foye of st. Joseph's R. G..
| Church, and Secretary A. W. Wilson of
| the local Organized Aid Association,
were given a hearing on behalf of that
! organization, during which they urged
the Board to take such steps to enforce
the truancy law.
Director Lewis, urged that the Board
push ahead>the new High School project
as rapidly as possible declaring that
| something must soon be done to relieve
the condition of affairs in the Bay street
| building, where an influx of three hum
| dred pupils has recently had to be pro-
vided for in the already overcrowded
school without new facilities or new
teachers.
The following teachers ef No. 81
