NJ. Fiammarion's New Calendar
From Harper's Weekly.

TTUW HUTpeT y WeKVs
Notwithstanding the disastrous results at
tending the attempts Of French scientists at
the time of the revolution to reform the
calendar, this subject seems still to interest
certain individuals. and the most recent
proposition comes from M. Camille Flam-
marion. the we'll known astronomer. who In
tends TO recommend to the French Chamber
of Deputies a bill to make compulsory q new
calendar he has devised.
NJ, Flammaron would commence the year
at March, 81. the verual equinox, and divide
it into quarters, each containing two months
Of thirty days and one month Of thirty-one
days. Consequently the year would consist
or fete dav. which would not belong to any
single month. Leap years would be marked
by two such fAte days.
The new calendar. is so designed that the
same dates would always OCCUR on the same
days Of the week. and one calendar would
answer for every year.

Last month SOL licenses to teach in the

thirty to women, after searching examins-
tons. From this eligible list" appoint
ments OF teachers are made, and it is ex-
pected that fully half OF those licensed in July
will be appointed at the opening Of the school

from the names on this list, two-thirds OF the

Eight thousand posters reproducing

OF Hearst sentiment which was sweep

sides, that it was decided to print the
reproductions on cards and mail them
to every registered voter. The plan was
generally approved. and. Saturday
morning, the first batch was carried to
the post office Several thousand were

NOBODY is EXEMPT.
A New Preparation Which Everyone
Will Need Sooner or Later.

Almost cvcrybodyS digestion is dis
ordered more or less. and the common
est thing they do for it is to take some
one of the many So-call"d blood purifi-
crs. which. in many eases, are merely
strong cathartics. Such things are not
needed. If the organs are in Il clogged
condition. they need only Il little help
and they will right themselves. Ca
thartcs irritate the sensitive Innings
of the stomach and bowels and often
do more harm than good.
Purging is not what is needed. The
thing to do is to put the food in con-
dition to be readily digested and as
simulated. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
do this perfectly. They partly digest
what is eaten and give the stomach
Just the help it needs. They stimulate
the secretion and eXcrctiOn of the di-
gcstivc fluids and relieve the conEcstcd
condition of the glands and membranes.
They put the whole digestive system i'll
condition to do it's work. When that
is done you need take no more tablets,
unless you eat what does not
agree with you. Then take one or two
tablcts-give them needed beip. and
you will have no trouble.

Washington. Nov. 5.-Battlcships and
torpedo boats are the imme1iate re-
quirements of the navy, in the opinion
of the general board of which Admiral
Dewey is president. In a accommodate
ton just made to Secretary BonaDartc.
which il is expected the secretary will
incorporate in his annual report. the
general board advocates the authoriza-
ton by Congress this winter of three
battleShips and 1G torpedo vessels.
The battleships recommended would
have displacement of at least $1,000
tons. sufficient to enable them to carry
10 Finch rifles, representing a radical
departure from anything in the battle
ship line heretofore constructed by any
nation. OF the torpedo vessels six
would be destroyers. six ordinary tor
pedo boats and four submarines
1t is nothing less than the abolition
of the intermediate battery. and the
putting of the weight thus saved into
the fighting strength of the ship. This;
will be accomplished by increasing as
far as possible the number of 12-inch
guns in the main battery, and dropping
the secondary battery to 3-inch riilc:;
at the largest.

they could not find him. He took with

which. in the aggregate in bills and
checks, amounted to several hundred
dollars. how much exactly is not
