A SPECIAL SCHOOL TAX
School Board Wants City Council to
Order Election to Determine the
Sentiment of Citizens.

A regular meeting of the school
board was held Thursday, with the
following present: President Link,
Secretary Sterne, Trustees Campbell,
Cutter and Eason. The regular bust
ness was transacted. Reports of the
superintendent and treasurer were pre-
scented and approved.
The treasurer's report shows cash
on hand $7S5.00. An estimate of the
resources developed that the school
could continue until May Sth as a free
school and until June 9Th as pay
school.
The following resolution was unani-
mously adopted:
Whereas, The trustees of the pub
lie schools of Palestine have found it
impracticable to continue the free
schools for longer term than seven
months, for the scholastic year of 1907
and 1908, on account of the want of
sufficient funds; and
Whereas, The trustees have rea-
son to believe that the citizens of Pal
estine are in favor of providing suf-
ficient fund to maintain the public
schools for full term of nine months
by an additional tax, to be levied and
collected annually for the support of
the public schools, and available for
the term of 1908 and 1909; therefore
be it
Resolved, That the Honorable
Mayor of the city of Palestine be re-
quested to call a special meeting of
the city council to order an election to
be held ON the second day of June,
1908, it being Tuesday, to determine
whether the city council shall be au-
thorized to levy an additional tax of
fifteen cents ad valorem on the one
hundred dollars valuation, for the sup
port of the public schools of the city
of Palestine Said tax to be made
available for the scholastic term of
1908 and 1909"

HOT ONIONS FOR PNEUMONIA.
Dread Disease Robbed Of its Tsrrors
by Simple Remedy.

Owing to the prevalence Of pneu-

attends its ravages during the winter
and spring, several boards Of health
In northern New Jersey have been TAX
ing measures to protect the citizens Of
their towns from the disease. The
health board Of Washington. N. j., has
published a remedy which Is said to
be sure cure for pneumonia, and
other health boards are looking into
the matter with a view Of having the
same thing published for the good Of
the general public. This is the pub
lication as 1t has appeared in the pa
pers of Washington:
Take six or ten onions, according
to size. and chop fine. put in a large
spider over a hot fire, then add the
same quantity of rye meal and vine
gar enough to form a thick paste. In
the meanwhile stir 1t thoroughly, let
ting it simmer five or ten minutes.
Then put in a cotton bag large enough
to cover the lungs and apply to chest
as hot as patient can bear. In about
ten minutes apply another. and thus
continue by reheating the poultices.
and in few hours the patient will be
out of danger. This simple remedy
has never failed to cure this too-often
fatal malady. Usually three or four
applications will be sufficient. but con-
tinue always until the perspiration
starts freely from the chest This rem.
edy was formulated many years ago
by one of the best physicians New
England has ever known. who never
lost a patient by the disease. and won
his renown by simple remedies"
