MANY HERE ARE

Tremendous Popularity Of
Home Prescription Says
Local Druggist

That the readers Of this paper ap-
preciate advice when given in good
faith is plainly demonstrated by the
fact that one well-known local phar-
macy supplied the ingredients for the
vegetable prescription" many times
within the past two weeks. The an
nouncement Of this simple, harmless
mixture has certainly accomplished
much in reducing the great many
cases OF kidney complaint and rheu-
matism here, relieving pain and mis-
cry, especially among the older popu-
lation, who are always suffering more
or less with bladder and urinary trou-
bles, backache and particularly rheu-
matism.
Another well known druggist asks
us to continue the announcement of
the prescription. 1t is doing so much
real good here, he continues, that il
would be a crime not to do so. II
can not be repeated too often, and
further states many cases of remark
able cures wrought.
The following Is the prescription, OF
simple ingredients, making a harm
less Inexpensive compound, which any
person can prepare by shaking we'll in
a bottle: Fluid Extract Dandelion,
one-half ounce; Compound Kargon, one
ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla,
three ounces Any hrst-class drug
store will sell this small amount of
each ingredient, and the dose for adults
is one teaspoonful to be taken after
each meal and again at bedtime. There
is enough here to last for one week, If
taken according to directions. Good re-
suits will be apparent from the first
few doses.
But unless YOU go to the trouble to
ask the druggist for the Dandelion and
Sarsaparilla separately, and then buy
one ounce Kargon Compound, in an
original (unopened) package, plainly
printed. Guaranteed No. 1OS under Ma
tional Drug Law. and mix the Kargon
with the other ingredients at your
home. you had better not use this ef-
fective prescription at all It may be
worse than useless, perhaps even
harmful. and your money wasted.
Under no circumstances accept the pre-
scription alr ready prepared. nor ac-
cept any excuse for Offering il to you
that way. Purchase separately the
Kargon Compound, No. los Guarantee
as explained above, and mix these
three ingredients at home yourself, or
don't use at ALL

that great bone of contention in the
school board, was not taken UP until
the new board had been organized.
Mr.. Whittemore's report was as fol-
lows:
General Condition.
During the year 1906-1907 the general
condition of the schools has been rea-
sonably satisfactory. There has been
no remarkable departure from the edu-
cational methods of previous years, but
an effort has been made to. strengthen
and improve the quality of the schools
at all points. The work of the teachers
has been carried on with patience and
devotion and there has been an encour-
aging degree of sympathy and co-opera .
ton between the home and the school.
THE results in the special depart
ments of music, drawing, and manual
training under the direction of their re-
spective supervisors have been especial
ly commendable and amply justify the
attention which these branches have re-
ceived. With the addition of domestic
science and forging another important
step will be taken towards the compile
ton of the manual training courses in
the high school. 1t is desirable that
manual training facilities should be pro-
vided for all the elementary schools in
which such provision has not yet been
made.
Through the courtesy of Mr.. George
E Dougherty, two classes in the high
school have received instruction in
shorthand during the past year without
expense to the board of education.

1t Is Raised From Eighteen to
Twenty Mills.
Board Still Two and Half Mills
Under Limit.
CARVER PRESIDENT.
Succeeds Rev. F. E. Mallory as
Head of Board.
Superintendent WhIttemore
Makes His Report.

Twenty mills is the tax levy for the
conduct and maintenance of the schools
of the city for the next school year
This was the decision of new board OF
education which was organized at the
annual meeting of these educational
solonistics which was held last night.
This is two mills larger than was the
levy made last year for school pur-
poses, but at that the board did not go
the limit permitted by law.
Under an act of the last Legislature
cities of the first class were permitted
to lew a tax of II mills for general
school purposes and three mills add
tional for buildings. In addition to this
tax of 20 mills permitted by the new
law the special tax for the heneht OF
the interest charges and sinking fund
could also be levied as well as a tax
for the manual training school. by
using the perogatives given them by
the law the board could have made a
levy of 2212 mills. And they are thus
open to certain cOngratula lions for not
going as far as they could.
The tax levy as adopted, without ar
gument and without a dissenting vote,
and as was reported by Mr. Gleed,
chairman of the finance committee. was
1411 mills: manual training, II mill; in
terest and sinking fund, mills; build
ings, 8 mills.
Mr.. Gleed explained that the levy of
141s mills for general school purposes
would produce more money than was
actually needed in that line, but that
the surplus could we'll be used in an
effort to begin TO retire the floating
debt of the general fund.
Following is a table showing the es
innate for the support and mainten-
ance of the schools on which the levy

Judge T. F. Carver was elected
president OF the board for the ensu-
ing year to succeed the Rev. Frank
E. Mallory, who has made such an
enviable reputation in the position
during his incumbency. When it
came time for the old board to retire
and the new board to arrive, which
always occurs at sort of dual meet
ing on the first Monday in August
Mr. Jordan was chosen as chairman
ganization. 1t was moved that
president be selected by ballot and
when the vote was announced Judge
Carver was elected. having received
nine votes with one for Mr.. Mallory
and one for Mr.. Anderson. Judge
Carver took the chair and presidency
of the board with a few words of
thanks and suggested that if the
the work there would be a treat in
store for them. Undoubtedly think
ing of him in his capacity as one oS
the states brewery receivers the
members of the board curtailed some
of their speeches on a few of the
questions at issue. Some of them may
have been chagrined a bit when the
new president urged a little later that
they had better hurry up or the ice
cream parlor would be closed
Some fun was INDUCED in during
the selection of a vice president. On
the first ballot the votes were so scat
tered that it looked as though about
every one on the board was voting
for himself Not a single man had
more than two votes. This sort of
boys play kept up for two more bal
lots but on the fourth ballot the vote
stood six to six between Mr. Nichol-
son and Col. Norton. who has been
vice president for a term. When this
vote was announced Col. Norton
arose and declared that he would
like to see Mr.. Nicholson get the
place. Another vote was taken and
then Mr.. Nicholson won out with four
votes to spare.
]. E. Stewart was then reelected
clerk for the ensuing year by an un-
animous vote.
Perhaps the real feature of the old
and the new meeting of last night
was the report of L. d. Whfttemore
superintendent Of schools, on the con-
ditions which have maintained during
the past year in the schools and their
prospects for the future. Mr.. White
more read his report during the meet
ing OF the old board. but his recon-
