Ques.-Gn pipe line Ia miles long,
with deep sag in the center and "a
and 20 inch pipe ordered for construct
ing same, where would you place the "a
inch pipe and the 90 inch pipe?
SUBSCRIBER.
Ans Without going into detail
would say that the "a inch pipe should
be placed at the intake and outlet, and
the 20 inch pipe throughout the sag
where the pressure is the greatest. The
intake pipe should be greater than the
main, and the same amount of water
will pass through the 20 inch pipe in
the center on account of the head or
pressure. This being true the pressure
begins TO diminish the minute the wa
ter starts up the sag on the uphill
side, and as the pressure decreases so
should the friction be decreased if pos
sible. There would be less friction in
the "a inch pipe than in the 20 inch;
for this reason | would place the "a
inch pipe where the least pressure ex-
listed, viz, at the intake and outlet.

documented either by license and en-
rollment or by certificate Of registry.
The privilege OF carrying the flag OF
the United States is under the regula-
tion Of congress, and it may have been
the intention of that body that it should
be used only by regularly documented
vessels. No such intention, however,
is found in any statute, and as a citizen
is not prohibited from purchasing,
building or employing abroad foreign
ship, it is regarded as reasonable and
proper that he should be permitted to
fly the flag OF his country as an indica'
tion of ownership and for the protec'
ton OF his property. The practice Of
carrying the flag by such vessels is now
established. The right to do 50 will
not be questioned, and it is probable
that it would be respected by the courts

TRAINING SCHOOL NOTES.

Mrs. Shortt and Mrs Fred Lewis of
Nekoosa attended the Literary society
meeting on Friday.
Mrs. w. C. and r. S. Dickens visited
the school last week in company with
Mrs Mcneil of Mondovi.
Oscar Iverson, '02, spent Friday after
noon at the Training school. He is not
teaching at the present time owing to
circumstances which are unavoidable,
but hopes to resume the work later
after better education has been OBJ
tanned.
Miss Martha Fawcett, who formerly
attended the Training school, and who
cow resides in East St. Louis, spent
Friday afternoon with US. She has
profited much by her residence there
on account of the opportunity gwen
her to study carefully the best features
of the Fair.
Mr. Wells gave an account of the
meeting of the Northeastern Wiscon-
sin Teachers association at Manitowcc
on Friday and Saturday. He first out
lined briefly the history of the Wiscon-
sin Teachers association, of which
some of US hope sometime to become
members. The sectional meetings are
a late development due to a desire for
greater opportunity for discussion.
Mayor Kemper in his address of well

street car line extending to Two Rivers,
seven miles down the lake, and car fer

AGRICULTURAL SCHOOL.

At present there are thirty-nine stu
dents in attendance at the county
agricultural school, which is larger
number than is attending the Dunn
county school at Menominie AS the
season advances and the farm work is
finished so that the larger boys can
leave home, the enrolment will be
materially increased. OF late, Mr.
Johns, the principal, has been receiv-
ing letters from nearly every state in
the union asking for information in re-
gard to the school, Last week one was
received from a town in France. A
great many circulars and printed
matter OF various kinds, relative tothe
institution, was placed for distribution
some time ago With the schools exhibit
at the Worlds fair. This has borne
fruit and is thought to have been
partially responsible Tor the large
number of inquiries above noted 1t is
also hoped that it will result in bring
ing students here from neighboring
states One has already enrolled from
Fremont, Ind.
The students of the agricultural
school were given halfholiday
Wednesday and attended the Shorthorn
sale conducted by Duncan Bros. at the
fair grounds that afternoon This was
done partially as an object lesson to
them that they might see the value of
raising good cattle which will sell at
fancy prices.

Chiropractic Adjustment
the New Science Of Healing Without Drugs or Pain.

T is based upon a correct knowledge
| of the nerves, radiating from the
great nerve center, the Spine.
In the human Backbone" there are
twenty four Vertebrae, each one hav-
ing an intervertebrael notch. The two
vertebrate being brought together
create window, from which emanate
bundles of nerves, spreading to all
parts of the human system.
A luxation or displacement of the
vertebrate causes the nerves to become
pinched, and PINCHED NERVES BRING
ABOUT DISEASE.
The Chiropractor's method is to
''FIX" or adjust" the luxation or dis
placement, by hand, thereby removing
the pressure and allowing the nerves
to regain their normal condition, and
to fulfill their regular function of send
ing out sufficient nerve force to the
different organs of the body, as well as
establishing a normal circulation of
the blood.
Chiropractic bears no resemblance
to any other form of Practice or meth
cd of Healing. 1t is truly Natures
Cure.

ing this SCIENCE, given upon applica-
