Everybody who is weak, delicate or
siekly wants to get well. Or. Greene,
of "a Temple Pr, Boston, NJ ass,
makes specially OF treating patients
free through letter correspondence.
The wisest thing all suffering people
can do is to write DR.. Greene,
stating just how they feel, mention
ing every symptom OF which they
complain, and he will answer the
letter, explaining each symptom and
describing the case so thoroughly
that patients understand their COM
plant as well as though they had
talked with the Doctor. He makes
his explanations SO clear that they
cannot help but understand just
what ails them, and he tells exactly
what to do 10 get well. IL saves a
journey to the city and DOCTORS fees,
and costs nothing. DR.. Greene is
the most successful specialist in cur
ing nervous and chronic diseases.
He is the discoverer of that wonder

TEMPE
, HIGH SCHOOL BOARD MEETS.
Bond Election Has Been Called for
 the 23-d of May.

A regular meeting of the high school board was held Saturday evening and the matter of voting the S50,000 bonds necessary was taken up. It will be re- membered that the attorney for the board was instructed at the last meet ing to ascertain the assessed valua- ton of the property in the Union high school district Mr. WOOlf reported that this valuation amounted to s1,4O9.- 6l0 The public will no doubt be in
 terested in knowing the additional tax that will be necessary for the mainte- nance of the high school. once it is built and in operation. II is estimated that il will require S10.000 per year for running expenses and the interest on. the bonds at 6 per cent. though it may be possible to sell them at per cent. On this basis the additional tax will be a little less than 80 cents on the 100 dollars. As yet no plans have been made for a sinking fund, but in case the expenses and interest should fall below the amount raised by the tax. il is proposed to put the balance in sinking fund until some special plan is devised or a special sinking fund tax levied. The bonds for S50,060 will ma ture in twenty years time. The board

The headaches and dizzy feelings that trouble so many persons, are often but symptoms of kidney com plaint.
 Kidney diseases are very treacher- ous They come on silently, gain ground rapidly, and cause thousands of deaths that could have been pre- vented by treatment in the beginning.
 Nature gives early warnings of every disease. if you would but note and heed them. Backache, twinges, of pain when stooping or lifting, head aches, faint spells and urinary dis orders are among the first warnings of kidney trouble.
 If these signals are unheeded, there comes a steady. dull heavy aching in the back and Joins. a noticeable weakness and loss of flesh, rheumatic attacks. weakening of the sight irreg- ular heart action, languor, attacks of gravel. irregular passages of the kid ney secretions. sediment. painful. scalding sensation. dropsical bloating. etc.

 In connection with the location of the high school difference of opinion has arisen A certain element feel that the proposition made the Tempe Land and Improvement company for $500 per acre for g.36 acres on Mill avenue. is an excessive price and that the pur- pose of the school would be answered equally as well and money would be safe if it were located in Goldman ad dition where Wm. Goodwin has offered a sufficient amount of land al $500 per acre. Within the past week there has been a great deal of discussion over the matter. the Goldman addition faction asking that d vote on the two loca- tions at the two different figures be taken. At a mass meeting held last week a committee was appointed to draft resolutions setting forth senti- ments in the matter and asking a vote, said resolutions to be presented the board of directors of the high school district For some reason or other these resolutions were not presented as had been anticipated Saturday ev- ening.
 It is decidedly regrettable that any dissatisfaction should have arisen in the matter of the location of the school. The school Is of vast impor- tance to Tempe and vicinity and it is the duty of every man who has vote on the question to forget his personal feelings in the matter. regardless of where it is placed and vote for the bonds. In a matter of this kind where it takes d two thirds majority to car ry the election. it is necessary that harmony prevail that every one work together for the best interests of the town
 Provided the deal with the Tempe Land and Improvement company is closed for the 9.36 acres. it is the in ton of the high school board to dispose of something over an acre of this property to the public school For years the public school has been mak-. ing an effort to get possession of the land between it and the Baptist church property. IL has heretofore been i'm possible. however. as the price was too high The public school now own property north of Eighth street and it is proposed to dispose of this and take in its place the land mentioned to- gether with a strip just south Of the building. all of which is a part of the land now under consideration by the high school board.
