Chinese Born In America Barred.


San Francisco. Sept. City At
torney Long has furnished the
Board of Education an opinion deal
ing with the question Of the admissi-
bility of native-born Chinese children
to public schools other than schools
established for them. In brief. he
holds that the question of nativity
has no bearing ON the case: that Chi
nese children are Mongolians, ire
spective Of birthplace. and that II
special schools of equal standing
are not provided for them, they are
entitled to attend any school. The
opinion is given In response to
query from the Board of Education
with reference TO the request Of the
parents Of three native-born Chinese
maidens who wished their daughters
to attend schools other than the ORR
entail school
The political code provides that
every school shall be open for the
admission of all children between
s and FL years of age, residing In the
district. This section also author
ICES boards of education to establish
separate schools for Indian, Chinese
or Mongolian children, and provides
that when such schools are estab-
lished, such children must not be
admitted to any other school.
The object Of the law is clearly to
segregate the white children of the
public schools from those of Mongol-
ian or Indian descent, and is not to
deny the latter of any Of the equal
rights guaranteed by the constitu-
ton.

Mr.. William F. Vahlberg, Oklahoma
City, Okla, writes:
Zone bottle of Peruna which have
taken did more toward relieving me of
an aggravated case of cafarrh of the
stomach, than years of treatment with
the best physicians.
II had given up hopes of relief, and
only tried Peruna as last resort.
II shall continue using it, as feel
satisfied it will effect an entire and
permanent cure.
'Imost cheerfully yrecommend Peruna
to all who may read this"
Peruna is usually taken as last re-
sort. Doctors have been tried and
failed. Other remedies have been used.
Sanitariums have been visited. Travel
has been resorted to.
At last Peruna is tried. Relief is
found.
This history is repeated over and
over again, every day in the year. 1t is
such results as this that gives Peruna
it's unassailable hold upon the people
We could say nothing that would add
force to such testimonials as the above.
That people who have had catarrh and
have tried every other remedy avail
able, find relief in Peruna, constitutes
the best argument that could be made.

Immense Cost of Fires in America

Fires have cost us as many as 1000
human lives in one years time, and
our loss in money value, through the
destruction of property, is almost as
appalling. The production of gold in
the entire world, something like $4O0,,
100000 a year, would not recoup us
for our losses by fire, and the Incl,
dental expenses accompanying them,
in the same period of time; the value
of all the coal mined in this country
in years time would just cover the
cost to us of our fires; the value OF
our lumber production is only trifle
more.-McClure's

ALL WEAR sHIRTwAIsT RINGS.
JeweIry for Women to Wear with
Morning Attire.

"Shirtwaist Rings" they are labeled
They are the simple massive rings
that some women prefer to wear with
morning attire in place. of their jew
eled rings, which they save for after
noon and evening.
All the various forms of seal rings
now popular are included in the shirt
waist ring list, but the name is used
more especially for rings of severely
plain design set with semi-precious
stones of the kinds that will stand
hard wear and even soap and water.
Many of the shirtwaist rings are
plain bands of twisted or braided gold
or silver. Some are fashioned like
snakes. Most, however, are stone set
Turquoise matrix is among the best
liked stones, as it is becoming to any
hand that has clear skin. 1t is usu-
ally set in a large oval trimmed with
an edge of gold no heavier than is
necessary to hold it securely. Many
of the turquoise matrix rings are sill
yer, highly FURNISHED or oxidized in
very dark tones.
The revived garnet is much used
in these rings. 1t is usually set in
cabochon fashion A frosted gold ring
in deep Etruscan tone has a lions
head for its ornament and a cabochon
garnet is set in the lions mouth.
A great oval disk of highly polished
coral simply set in a rim of gold is the
ornament of another ring. Moonstones
are much used, usually set in silver,
which carries out the silvery quality
of the stone coloring.
Lapis lazuli and malachite are used
with gold or silver rings. One model
has long narrow stone embedded
in the ring so far around the finger
that the ring seems to be made of the
stone. Some rings are made entirely
of jade, the Chinese lucky stone. To.
