| these unjust preferences and this con-
temptible discrimination, which always
favors the continentals, that we are not
surprised at the latest exhibition. We
are accustomed to the most execrable
injustice practised in the filling OF the
principal positions under the admins
tration with redemptionistS, a usurpa-
tion which the bureaucrats attempt to
justify by repeating that they are our
tutors, our irremediable tutors.
1t is not the insolence of the last
high handed outrage of the Depart
ment of Education that surprises
us, it is its daring to commit an
act SO flagrantly illegal as will be i'm
mediately seen by reference to the
School Law now in operation and the
ninth section OF the revision of 1905.
AS is always the case when the func--
| ltionaries violate law, this violation
has been in order to favor an exotic.
But what has been dore this time
| has more painful significance.
1t has had its origin in the Depart
rnent of Nr. Falkner, the dehnor OF
Education and Democracy. This is
surely conclusive evidence that IN
that Department they do not know
what Education and Democracy mean.
Here, Education, Justice and Ho-
nor are talked about ad inilnitum,
but between what they say and what
they do there is as much difference as
between the north and south pole.
We are heartily weary Of their in
cessant preaching.
The functionaries continue obdura-
te, impenitent and contumacious nor
can we observe in the conduct of the
congregation the slightest 1ndic& tion
of improvement.
| We had believed that Mr. Falkner
and his acolytes would seek for re-
medies, search for meth DDS with which
to counteract the proved effects of the
failure of Education; we believed that
the deGnor of Educa ton, under the
weight of an overwhelming disaster,
would seek some avenue OF escape,
and instead, we hud him engaged In
new risky adventures, bent on making
more noisy, conspicuous and comph-
Gated, the disaster, as If our counsels-
per force, given in loud snd severe
tones, in accents of reprimsnd-were
OF no importance.
That confirms the sad belief we
! have ente rtained for some time OF the
redempti ZIONIST impenitence.
From such breed 1t is useless t.
hope anything.
They speak continually of Justice
and Honor, of Education and Demo-
lcracy. We are weary OF such clap
trap. of such chaff
Words aud the acts show no con-
nee ion and this scandal already is
becoming intolerable.

The appointing of Mr.. Frank G.
GUY as Assistant Inspector of the
school district of San Juan has brought
to light great injustice which has
been perpe trated against the Portori
can teacher for some time and in ne
arlv ell the school districts of the Is
land.
1t is an inexcusable abuse.
Thanks to the impositions OF the
Department and the pusillanlmlty OF
various School Boards, the greater
number of positions as Principals
which should be given to Portorican
teachers, are being filled by continen-
tails, which is contrary to the precepl
of the present school law of 1904 and
its revision in 1905, article nine.
1t is most singular this ignoring
this displacement of Portorican teac-
hers for the exclusive Den~n> Of I'm
ported teachers, without its having
called forth an energetic note of pro-
test condemning the immoral abuse
as practized by the prebendaries of the
Department of Education.
Why are not all the school princi-
pals Portoricans as the present school
law provides?
Why are there American Principals
when some Portoricans who have that
title are without schools. and others OF
equal rank are forced to take positions
in graded schools and even rural onesl
The Department of Education sho-
uld be called upon for an immediate
and full reply to the first ques
tion, and be made to explain the
reason for this outrage Gus AMI brutal
attack Of which the native school tcac-
hers are the victims.
The case of Mr.. Guy is astoun-
ding.
He made his debut as a teacher
of English in Rio Piedras.
Some months ago he arrived But
already he knows everything like
all the men of double citize nship. the
moment they land in the colony they
act as if they owned it. as if it was
theirs, as if they were the first arri-
walls on a desert island to do with it as
they saw fit.
Mr.. Guy came as teacher o1
English. He had not served in any
rural school nor in a graded one; in
fact he had no experience in Porto
Rico, he is not a Principal nor ma
tive. But, nevertheless, absolutely
ignoring the Portorican teachers OF
tried and proved merit and competen
|cy. disregarding the plain precepts
Of the law now in force, this exotic
has been named Assistant Inspector
for the shool district of San Juan.
Is this not an abuse and an outragei
Is it not a lawless and ignominious
act7
We have had so many evidences o1

Doing Great Work.

Ward, Ark, March 6th.-(Special.)
From all over the West reports
come Of cures of different forms of
Kidney Disease by Dodd's Kidney
Pills, and this place is not without
evidence OF the great work the Great
American Kidney Remedy is doing.
Among the cured here is Mr.. j. v.
Waggoner, a well known citizen, who.
in an interview, says: "Dodd's Kidney
Pills have done wonders for me. My
kidneys and bladder we're badly out
Of order. used many medicines, but
got nothing to cure me till tried
Dodd's Kidney Pills. Two boxes of
them fixed me up so that l have been
we'll ever since.
Tell the poor kidney and bladder
diseased people to take Dodd's Kid
ney Pills and get WELL"
No case Of kidney complaint is too
far gone for Dodd's Kidney Pills to
cure. They are the only remedy that
has ever cured Bright's Disease.

striking likeness that the principal
forgot his annoyance In his astonish,

TubercuIOsIs RlahtIy cIassed.

The Health department of the city of
Philadelphia has decided that in future
tuberculosis shall be classed with
other diseases that are dangerous to
the public health, such as smallpox.
diphtheria, scarlet fever and other
contagious maladies. The law in
Pennsylvania and most other States of
the Union requires that every case of
contagious disease shall be reported
to the Health department. Hereafter
all cases of tuberculosis must be so
reported by the attending physician.
The purpose of this law is to enable
the Health department to take neces-
sary steps to prevent the extension of
this disease by dislnfection of the
apartments whicS have been occupied

Oil Rubblnn.

Clothing exposes us to great dan.
gers. We wear too many clothes.
We dress too warmly, so the skin be-
comes relaxed. and loses the power to
take care OF itself, and this is the rea-
son oil rubbing is necessary. The
simple removal of thin layer of oil
by hot bath may be sufficient to
cause man to take cold. SO this must
be replaced by a special oiling. or
some other treatment. in cold wealth.
er. ~ t-t,
1 People who are very susceptible to
cold. should be rubbed with oil after
each bath. Oil rubbing is especially
needed in cases In which the skin is
dry, through. deficient activity of the
oil glands OF the skin. Great care,
however. should be taken to avoid too
vigorous rubbing in the application of
the oil. as sweating is very easily pro.
duced, to the disadvantage of the pa
tient In the treatment Of infants and
children, a marked and most favor
able effect upon nutrition is produced
by oil rubbing. Application OF oil
after cold baths encourages reaction.
In most cases of chronic dyspepsia
when accompanied by emaciation, In
diabetes, and in most cases in which
malnutrltion with dryness of the skin
Is a prominent feature, oil rubbing is
a valuable curative agency.

Cost OF Tuberculosis.

DIR. Harmon Biggs of New York
american Medicine), after a careful
estimation, places the annual expense
of tuberculosis to the people OF the
United States at .000.O00.00. He
first calculates the loss TO New York
city by putting a value OF 81 500 upon
each life at the average at which
deaths from tuberculosis occur This
gives a total value of the lives lost
annually OF $500. 10000;
But this is not oil, For at least nine
months prior. to death these patients
cannot work, and the loss OF service
at one dollar day, together with food
nursing. medicines. attendance, etc.
at one and one-half dollars a day. re-
suits in a further loss of $1,000 100000.
making yearly loss to the p,unlci-
pality OF s23. 900 10000. For the whole
country. the 10000 deaths from tuber.
culosls represent In the same way q
loss of 1890, OOO, 100000. 2
DR.. Biggs also states that the total
expenditure in the city OF New York
for the care OF tuberculous patients is
not at present over $500. 100000 a year.
that is, Il does not exceed two per cent
of the actual loss by death. etc. III
this annual expenditure were doubled
or trebled it would mean a saving OF
Several thousand lives annually, to say
nothing of the enormous saving In suf-
fering." Further evidence of this is
afforded by the fact that In the last
twenty years the total number of
deaths from tuberculosis in New York
has decreased instead OF increasing.
although there has been an increase
of 20 per cent in the general popula-
ton.

Horrors Of the Cocaine Habit.

The following illustration of bad ad-
vice in the lecture room is probably
not an exceptional case A professor
of materia medica lecturing on cocaine
called 1t one OF the greatest of all
stimulants and perfectly harmless.
He cited his own experience of its
good effects, and advised the class to
test 1t personally in debility and ex-
haustion. OF class of thirty-two who
listened to this advice, five became
cocaine takers within two years. Ten
years later thirteen of this class we're
drug and spirit takers. In all prob
ability, the use of cocaine was the
starting point of their additions.
Four died from the direct use OF this
drug. Evidently more than half the
class had followed the advice Of the
teacher and we're wrecked. A few
years after, the professor became an
invalid and retired from the profes-
sion. victim of his own counsel and
confidence in cocaine.
