The New Law Requires Higher Quail
fications---Wil Go Into Effect Soon.

A scarcity of teachers will exist
throughout the state beginning with
September, 1907. On that date the
new law will go into effect and quail
fications for high school teachers will

having like effect on the rural

new law:

department of any high school district
or in any high school department of
any city school district in this state

HAMILTON MAKES SPEECH
Accuses Trustees Of New York Life
Which Results in Their Being
Ordered to Refund Money

Albany, N. Y.-The insurance in
vestigating committee was treated to
a sensation when Andrew Hamilton
arrived Unexpectedly at the session,
and made a violent attack on the
trustees of the New York Life In
surance company.
AS he afterward admitted, Judge
Hamilton did not himself expect to
appear before the committee, but on
the impulse of the moment, decided
to speak on behalf Of himself and
John G. Mccall.
Judge Hamilton entered the room
unnoticed except by two newspaper
men, and took a seat in the rear OF
the room. Suddenly he arose, made
his way down to the front, and began
the most powerful address yet deliv-
cred before the committee.
Judge Hamilton said, in part:
II wish to state that my remarks
here will be confined entirely to the
New York Life Insurance company
and those who manage 1t. Inc Otnel
companies / respect, as | have found
no ours or traitors among them.
IT address you upon one bill solely,
and / maintain that it is your duty
to report in favor Of the measure
that will remove the trustees of the
New York Life Insurance company.

CATION of your committee, Mr.. Chair
man, has been the question of my
transactions and of my vouchers

about the form of the vouchers that

them then they stand as sponsors for
them. If they did not approve them,
then they failed TO perform their
duty.
"They may talk about the yellow
dog but the yellow dog is dog Of
courage and of loyalty, but the ours
who stood around this funeral that
has occurred and the ours who knew
of these transactions and shrunk into
their shoes-they are the curs-and
that is the reason that come to speak
before you and say that the great in
terest Of $2,OO0,O00,O00 of life insur-
ance and $4OO,OO0,O00 of assets can
never be safely intrusted to the hands
and administration of a lot of ours, "

Keep
Your Nerve

1t is nerve energy that runs
the organs of your body. The
storage battery is the nerve
cells in the brain and spinal
cord, and from this battery
nerve force is sent out through
the system of nerves. To keep
the body healthy you must
have plenty Of nerve force; II
YOU have not, the organs work
imperfectly, the circulation is
sluggish, digestion bad, appe-
tite poor, kidneys inactive, and
aches, pains and misery are
the penalty.
You can keep the system
strong with DR.. Miles Nervine.
It assists in generating nerve
energy; it strengthens the
nerves and makes the whole
system strong and vigorous.
II take pleasure in recommending
DIR. Miles Nervine to those suffering
from nervous prostration, insomnia
and melancholy. After several
months suffering from above diseases
/ tried this medicine and found imme-
date relief. 1t soothes and strength
ems the nerves, chases away the
gloomy and depressing thoughts and
gives the sufferer renewed strength
and hope. 1t is a superb nerve re-
storer."
