The Chanute times. [volume] (Chanute, Kan.) 1897-1913, 1905-03-24

Many times women call on their family
physicians, suffering, as thoy imagine,
ono from dyspepsia, another from heart
disease, another from liver or kidney dis
ease, another from nervous exhaustion or
prostration, another with pain hero and
there, and IN this way they all present
alike to themselves and their .easy-going
and Indifferent, or ovcr-busy doctor, sep
aratc and distinct diseases, for which nc,
assuming them to be such, preScribeS his
pills and potiohs. In reality they arc all
only symptoms caused by some womb dis
case. The physician, ignorant OF the
cause of suffering, encourages this pracc-
tice until large bills are made. The SUI
ferlng patient'gets no better, but prob
ably worse, by reason of the delay, wrong
treatment and consequent complications.
A proper medicine like DR.. Pierce's Fa
vorite Prescription, directed to the cause
would have entirely removed the disease,
thereby dispelling all those distressing
symptoms, and instituting comfort in
well said that "a disease known is half
cured" In cases almost innumerable,
after all other medicines had failed to
help and doctors had said there was no
cure possible, the use of DIR. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription, supplemented when
necessary by medical advice and counsel
of DR.. Pierce, has resulted in a perfect
these cures is attested not only by the
entire disappearance of pain, but by a
gain of flesh, a clear complexion and q
cheerful disposition.
SCIENTIFIC MEDICINE Pierce's
Favorite Prescription is scientific med
icine, carefully devised by an experienced
and skillful physician, and adapted to
woman's delicate organism. 1t is purely
vegetable in its composition and per-
fectly harmless in its effects IN any
condition of the system. 1t contains no
alcohol, opium, digitalis or other injuri--

tions Of nomination for members OF
the Assembly in the Citizens Reform
party ticket, that they might obtain
challengers at the yarions polling

would be acceptable to the Colby men,
sent letter to County CLERK Horton
to-day, waving the right to have
their names placed on the voting ma
chimes in the polling places of the 1st

did this after hearing that the capa

therefore consented to have their
names printed on special ballots which
will be used independent OF the ma

NEW STATE ARCHITECT
FOR SCHOOL BUILDINGS

commencing November 1, the new
state department OF charities and cor.
rectlon will take charge of the work
OF supervising the plans for all public
school buildings in New Jersey, super
sedlng Herman Kreitler. of Newark,
architect for the State board of educa.
tion. George E. Poole, assistant com
missioner of charities and corrections.
VINO is a licensed architect, will do
the work after the date mentioned
and Architect Kreitler will no longer
draw salary of $1,000 per year from
thesState.
The change is due to Governor
STOKES, who. before approving the an.
nual appropriation bill. requested
Commissioner Wight's department to
assume the supervision of the school
plans. Having received the assent of
the department., the governor struck
from the appropriation bill the 81, 600
for Architect kreitler's salary.
The State school law gives very
specific requirements for the erection
OF school buildings, in order to insure
the comfort and safety of the pupils.
Every class room must be at least is feet
square and provide not less than 200
cubic feet of air space per pupil. Ap-
proved systems of lighting and venti.
lation must be provided and all cell.
lngs must be at least 10 feet high.
Special provisions are given for the
construction of school stairs. None
must be less than four feet wide, and
intermediate landings must be pro-
vided. Every stairway must be en-.
closed in brick wall or walls of
slow burning construction with no
open we'll holes. Many other building
technicalities are covered by the law.
The necessity of providing skilled
architectural oversight for the new
public school buildings erected led to
the establishment of the position of
State architect. Mr.. Kreitler was ap-
pointed to the place, and has been
paid an annual salary OF 81, Be-
fore school building could be erected
its plans had to be approved by the
State architect. Under the new rule
this work will all be attended to by
Assistant Commissioner Poole.

Orphans Court In Session.

Orphans Court In Session.
Judge Trenchard held a session of
the Orphans Court Monday at which
the case of the exception to the final
account OF J. Portius Gage. executor
of the estate of his mother, Portia
Gage. was again taken up. The con-
testant was a brother Of the executor,
and some of the nephews.
The case comes up to-day for argu-
ment only, tthe exception and testi-
mony.having been previously heard by
the Court at the two or three former
hearings.
The lawyers conducting the case are
Messrs Roy L. Tuller and VIM. A.
Logue for the defendants and Leverett
Newcomb and Walter H. Bacon for
the exception.
The amount contested involves be.
tween $24, 900 and $29 600.
The argument was opened by Mr..
Newcomb. who detailed the introduc-
tory grounds for the exceptions, which
involved the lack of testamentatory
capacity of the deoedent, sMrs. Gage,
who was some 80 years old when she
died.
The arguments of counsel will con-
sumo the session of the Court, and
will probably conclude the case.
