A NEW SCHOOL DESK.
Provides Support for the Child's Back,
Where II is Most Needed.

In the belief that proper seating
facilities play an important part in
the welfare OF school children, George
w. Ehler, supervisor of physical
training, and Director of Schools
Charles Orr worked until they have
perfected what they believe is the
best seat and desk in the country
says the Cleveland Plain Dealer
The seat is constructed according to
Ehler's own plans and is based upon
an exhaustive set of measurements
made by him last year in the schools
Ii provides support for the childs
back, where II is most needed, at the
base OF the spinal column and the
small of the back Another strong
point is that the seat proper is pitched
backward only slightly, keeping the
body at a restful angle. Both seat
and desk are adjustable. The new
desks are being installed in all the
new buildings and grow in favor
wherever put.

COMPLEXION SECRETS
Only One Way to Secure a Clear
Skin.

In most instances a bad complex
ion is due to neglect of the little
things In life that are essential to
natural beauty. All manner OF sug-
gestions have been offered by skin
specialists, but all agree that the
only sure way TO secure clear,
healthy complexion is to conform
closely as possible to the laws Of
nature. To preserve your fresh
mes and beauty, You should live sim
ply, take plenty of outdoor exercise,
drink quantities OF water and be
careful OF your diet. Remember,
too, that beauty is good deal more
than skin deep. IL Is blood deep,
anu depends also upon your liver,
your kidneys and the activity of your
bowels. For nearly two years now,
they have been telling The ladies of
the beneficial effects that Laxakoia
Tonic Tablets have on the skin.
The principal ingredients in them

TAFT AND HUGHES.
Mention of Names Pleasing to Ohio
Man and His Managers.

Washington, d. c., May 2S.-Recent
suggestions that the strongest possible
republican combination for 1908 would
be Taft and Hughes are not only pleas
ing to the managers Of the Taft boom,
but the hope that the Empire state
governor will tail the ticket Is based
on something besides mere desire. A
close observer of politics who has just
returned TO Washington from a trip
made to sound political opinion in New
York, Massachusetts, Indiana, Ohio
and Georgia gave it as his opinion that
not only could President Roosevelt get
the nomination if he wanted it, but he
could get it for almost any candidate
for whom he might express a prefer
ence. Taft managers, however, are
overlooking no opportunity to strength
en- their candidate and to supplement
his strength if nominated by a vigor-
Gus running mate in Governor Hughes.
