SOUTH DAKOTA DOCTORS,
Attractive Features for the State
Meetinu at OeadWood

Dr.. Charles B. Mallery, president of
the South Dakota Medical association,
has issued the following circular to
the medical profession of South Da-
kota:
THE twenty-fifth annlal session Of
our state association VIII be held at
Deadwood July and next. This is
a new departure, as this will be the
first time that We have met west of
the Missouri river. Our state is now
organized into nine districts, with a
good live local society in each district
and it seemed no more than right that
if the members in the Hills desired to
entertain us this year they should have
the opportunity, especially as the
American Medical association will
meet in Portland, Ore, the next week,
and those of US that wish will be able
to take in both meetings on the sam
trip.
There will be a special train from
Sioux City to DeadwoOd, leaving Sioux
City the evening of July 3, and the
railroads have made the best rates
that We have ever secured. The Hills
members have arranged to entertain
us with trip up the wonderful Spear
fish canon. and in all probability down
into the great Homestake mine. The
program committee report that they
are meeting with success. and there is
no doubt that We will have the best
meeting in the history of our associa-
ton.
Now, doctor, remember that the
workingman, merchant and other pro
fessional men all have their Sundays
to themselves. while We work every
day and often nights also, SO let us
break away and enjoy ourselves at
this time by taking our families and
making this trip to DeadwoOd and our
state meeting anyway. and if by any
possibility let us prolong the good
time on to Portland, and the great
meeting of the American Medical as
sociaton.'

|County commissioners was held at

affected with scab or other disease.
In several counties canvass has been
made for signatures Of those opposed
so the order referred to, and fund
has been pledged to pay the expenses
OF propoed legal fight. The state
board has been asked to modify the
order SO that it will apply only to dis
|eased cattle.

ANOTHER LAW ANENT SCHOOLS
1t Regulates Distribution Of Funds ir
Cities With State Colleges.

While there is a great deal OF KICK
ing from numerous towns over the
state because Of the school census be-
ing reduced under the operations OF
the present law, what is coming this
year will be nothing to the roar which
will go up next year from the towns
in which the different state education
al institutions are located.
Another law was passed which does
not go into effect until July |, which
provides that tie attendants at the
model normal schools, 4nd those in
the other state schools, shall not be
listed for the purpose Of the school
census on which the apportionment of
school funds is made, the theory of
this being that SO long as their edu-
cation Is at the expense of the state,
the school fund should not be called
upon to pay for their education at the
same time in the public schools.
In the past these pupils have been
listed for their share of the apportion-
ment fund, the same as those who at
tend the public schools, but they did
not attend, and the town in which the
state educational institution was To-
Gated reaped a double benefit.
1t is proposed by the new law to
take this privilege away from them
and put them on the same footing with
those without he institutions, and
their reports will be materially reduc-
ed in the future.

Chicago, June 2O.-No one can

there are many more who ought to

and sent note to the mother, re-
questing that the child be helped at
home ii she wished her to keep up
with her class. One day after black
board explanation, the teacher called
| upon the child and found that she
had not seen what had been written.
She was kept after school and by dint
of much sympathetic questioning Miss

able to see what was put on the board
and that her head had ached SO often
and so hard that she frequently failed
to hear what was said.

can homes it is usually due to the
poor quality Of the artificial light. The

chimney, is about as bad for the eyes
as can be- imagined. The Pickering

Fortunately, acetylene is very easily

be piped to convenient points in the
house where a light is needed. 1t is

Acetylene is rapidly coming into

and the many ills resulting therefrom
will undoubtedly be much reduced by
