PAY IN CHECKS.

Deposit your pay check at your
bank and pay your bills with your
own check on the bank. It would
seem unnecessary to point out the
advantage of this plan, but from the
fact that many persons continue to
draw the currency for their checks
leads US to think they do not realize
now useful banks are, and that
modern methods of business are a
great improvement over the old
plan of carrying about cash which
is liable to lie lost. Another great
advantage is the fact that when
you pay by check TO order of the
party you are dealing with, you
have a record Of the transaction, as
when these checks are paid by the
bank they are returned to you, en-
dOrsed by the party to whom they
were payable, and can always be
referred to In case OF dispute. The
banks furnish you free with checks
70 use in doing your business. 1t is
claimed that SO per cent of the bust
ness OF the country is done by
means of checks and drafts, and
only 2 per cent in currency. This,
IN itself, shows the desirability of
this way of doing business is be-
coming more and more recognized
and used.-Richland Republican

REMEDIES FOR ALL DISEASES.
But No Particular Cure-AH for Every
Malady.

Every disease has its remedy, and
In the search for that remedy hun
dreds Of cults Of medicine have sprung
up. One man pins his faith in minute
doses Of powerful drugs; another
walks barefoot over wet grass; an
other eats raw fruit and grain; one is
confident that mud baths induce
health, and still another urges us to
chew each mouthful of food at least
so times before swallowing. No
doubt, every one of these cures" is
of benefit to some form of disease.
The mistake of followers of the treat
ments is in thinking their particular
remedy a cure-all for every malady.
There are no universal remedies. In
deed, every type of disease must re-
ceive special attention and be treated
after the fashion long experience and
study have taught the medical profess
sion is best adapted to the case. Ger
tain ills respond quickly to drugs, the
virtues of which are sometimes won
derfully effective. Others need moth
ing but fresh air; still others a change
of climate, and variety of diseases
need no drugs and no Journeys to the
mountains, but are best relieved by
simple distinguishes Weekly.

mot GUILTY."

The famous, or perhaps more
properly speaking, infamous, trial
of Harry z. Thaw, for the murder
of Stanford White, is ended at last,
and the verdict of the jury, render
ed last Saturday after "a hours
deliberation was mot guilty" of
murder, but that he was insane at
the time the crime was committed.
Justice Bowling promptly sentenced
him to be incarcerated in the asy-
lum for criminal insane at MaStea-
wan until such time as the state
lemacy commission is satisfied that
the safety of the public will not be
endangered 10y his being at large.
The reports say that Thaw and his
relatives are pleased with the yer.
dict, which is naturally to be ex-
pected. Jerome, the district pros
ecuting attorney, eays he Is salts;
fed, because ever since the crime
was committed he has contended
that Thaw was medically if not
GRIM naIly insane, and the public is
satisfied IN one respect at least, be.
cause one OF. the most sen sational
murder trials Of modern times, one
reeking vita the most indecent
publicity and nasty detail Of i'm.
morality in the lives Of the prin.
cipal figures in the tragedy. is end
ed at last. The chances are that i
will be but very short time indeed
until Tnaw's attorneys will en-
deavor to show that, although he
may have been insane at the time
the crime was cOmmi tied he is not
insane now and should be set free.
And he probably will be.

SCHOOL FOR TRUANTS.
No Bolts or Bars, but Bad Boys VIII
Net Want to Run Away.

Net Want to Run Away.
The new Parental school in Los An
geles, Cal. will be completed in a few
weeks and will be opened on Jan. 81.
1t is on the Los Feliz road and is sur
rounded by eleven acres of beautiful
sloping ground extending from the
Los Angeles river to the Elysian hills.
The building cost $4,000 and the land
$4,000, says the Los Angeles Times.
No other city in the United States
has just such an institution, although
New York is building one for similar
purposes at q cost of 100000.
The Parental school is to house tru-
ants and delinQuents whose environ
ments are such that reform cannot be
effected without removing them from
their homes. 1t is intended for boys
from eight to fourteen years Of age,
but is not to be an adjunct to the jul
venile court
The new building is to have no bolts
or bars, and there will not be a single
guard. No uniform will be worn by
the lads, and each will have his own
little room, full of sunshine. The pu-
pills will be in school probably not
more than half of each day, and the
rest of the time will be devoted to
healthful employment out of doors
There will be none of the marks Of jail
or institutional life.
Since 90 per cent of the successful
men in the world were brought up on
a farm it is purposed to give the tru
ants the benefit of joy and of country
existence.
The new building has been con
structed in the old Spanish style, the
rooms being built around a court On
the west side will be the superintend
ents living room and Office. There
will be twenty-fOur bedrooms, each
with a large window, and library
which opens into the large recreation
room, with its big fireplace, where the
youngsters may sit in the evening anC
swap yarns.
