Mrs. Gilman, the famous author Of

rather stately and still young. She. has
somewhat the manner and appearance
Of muse-a muse. that Is, who deals
exclusively with facts -- one couldn't
mistake her for Terpschore or any of
the more frivolous OF the sisterhood, but
well, the muse OF history, perhaps.
Mrs. Giman's appearance does not sug.

Rev. Anna Shaw, who proclaimed her
self frankly from the platform as an
old maid. in her plain black dress and
lace fichu at the throat was a picture
OF serene and silvery motherhood.
The little lyceum was filled with Ia
dies, who seemed for the mos, par.

that they could have their husbands ar

it became necessary interfere with vot-

question Of the evening, Are Wives

Here and there was a meek sprinklng

rather hard time supporting some
body; but, OF course, it couldn't have

was perhaps-at least there was a bald
creature in the third box from the stage
who, when the debate and the room
warmed up started to remove his coa.,

Osteopathic Catechism,
tFrom osteopathic Healthy

(FTOm OSteOpdlnlC hedIlu.j
MICROBES AS EFFECTS, NOT CAUSES
@. What does osteopathy hold
regarding microbes?
A. That rats do not make q
house dirty, that vermin do not
make people uncleanly; that rats,
vermin and bacteria do thrive,
however, wherever there is filth.
The human body should be clean
within as we'll as without. When
the blood is impoverished, or cir
culation is poor, waste products
remain in the body and pollute it;
disease impairs nutrition; it fails
to rebuild body cells wasted with
work; it prevents sweeping out
body sewage; body poisons accu-
mulate which make an unclean
body within; depraved nutrition
from uncleanliness within means
weakened vitality Of the body's
cells; there no longer remains the
ability on the part Of these cells te
destroy dangerous bacteria-whicf
they are fully able to do in perfecl
Health. Thus, when disease has
rendered the resistance of the body
below par, microbes lay siege to j
and make it a breeding ground
much as rats capture dirty tene'
ment. Microbes are thus an effec
Of prior disease. They are ,th'
symptom, not the cause, Of dis
!, ease, They follow in the wake 0
| depletion. Stagnant blood breed
bacteria. The products Of bacteri'
may finally become a danger Gle
ment in the bodY--the toxins an,
ptomaines--but thatis all second
ary to an earlier onslaught upo
the body's nutrition which ha
rendered vitality unable ''to driv
these rascals out" The first caus
why microbes were tolerated i
the body was some prior failure Q

Molasses and Sugar.

The term "molasses' is properly ap-
piled to the saccharine product which
is separated from sugar in the process
of manufacture. A syrup Is the direct
product of the evaporation of the
juice Of sugar-yielding plant or tree
without the removal of any of the.
sugar. The term molasses applies to-
the same process with the exception
of the fact that the sugar has been re-
moved at least partially by crystalliza-
tion and some kind Of mechanical sep
aration Of the crystals from the re.
manning liquid.

They Pay Enough.

as to how to raise revenue sufi-
cient to carry on the business of
the state, many of which would in
crease the burden of the farmer
and land owner, State Auditor
John P. Gordon this week issued
the following statement:
A great amount of talk has been
indulged in here at Jefferson City,
and as q member of the state
board of equalization have re-
ceived many letters from st. Louis
and other parts of the state sug-
gesting and requesting that |
should vote to raise the valuation
of the farm lands of the state suf-
ficiently to bring into the state
treasury enough revenue to ade-
quately meet the growing demands
of the different state offices and
state institutions.
I admit there is ground for ap-
prehension that the state will be
unable to meet all demands made
on it's treasury, under our present
system and mode of raising
revenue.
The idea has been spread abr DAD
throughout the state for number
of years that all property other
than farm lands has been assessed
at very high rate of valuation,
and farm lands at very low rate
of valuation. I, too, believed that
this was the case until / came in
to the Office of Auditor of State.
Since taking Echarge of this office
| have spent quite a little time in
vestigating extensively the sources
of the states revenue, and from
deductions which | show below |
am convinced that the farmers s
land is assessed at higher rate OF
valuation than any other class OF
property, excepting bankers who
pay upon their capital stock and
surplus, which is assessed at IS pei
cent of its true value. From state
ments made to the State Senate
this year of 1909 by the individual
assessors of each county, a copy Of
which I have before me, | find
, that the real estate of the state is
assessed at an average of 30 pei
cent of it's actual cash value.
I want to give below to the peo-
pie of the state some figures show
ing what per cent of money, notes
and bonds of the state is assessed,
as compared to their actual cash
value.
find that in September, 1908
there was on deposit in the various
banks .of the state S512, $50, 500
that the amount of money, notes
and bonds returned by the asses
sors of the state for taxable pur.
poses for the year 1908 was $780,
61S,5S2. This last amount was as
sessed at an average of 66 per cent
which shows the amount of money
notes and bonds on which taxei
can be collected for 1909. Thi
amount to the lpaltry sum of S56,
sos, ,264.12, which is only 11.2 pc
cent of the actual cash value of th'
money, notes and bonds of tn
state, while on real estate the as
sessed valuation 1850 per cent 0
it's real or cash value.
Iwish to say to my friends owe
the state who have talked with m
about raising real estate to its &C
tual cash value that [ am unalter
ably opposed to doing SO unit
some plan is inaugurated whereof
the people who own the money {
the state will be made to pay take
on it in some form or other.
that can be done, there will be n
cause for alarm at there not bein
sufficient revenue to meet each an
every demand of the state treasury

The Annual School Meeting and
ArbOr Day.

The annual school meeting will
be held this year, April 9th, be-
ginning at 2 o'clock P. M. Arbor
Day is on Fridsy April 9th. One
or the other of these days will be
good time for the people, all the
people, to come together and dis
cuss the questions of most impor-
tance to the community.
At the annual meeting one or
more directors will be chosen, and
a county superintendent or COM
missioner will be elected, who
under the new law will become
county superintendent in August,
The best and most available per-
son in the district should be elect
ed director, while the best quail
fed, most industrious and most
progressive person in the county
should be chosen for commission :
er-superintendent. The voters
should refuse to support any but
/ the best.
Besides selecting district and
county school officers, the voters
must determine the length of term
in excess of eight months, the
amount of levy for school purposes
in excess of 40 cents, and dispose
of all other items in the notices or
that may be legally called up by
the chairman.
Under our law, women have no
right to vote but there is no good
reason why they should not attend
the annual school meetings and
witness the manner of procedure
of their husbands, fathers and
brothers in disposing of matters OF

presence would, without doubt,
add to the interest and the uplift
of the occasion and the advance of
every good cause. Let the women
of the district attend the school
