VOTE FOR SCHOOL BOARD.

On Wednesday the election of mem
bers of the school board will be held.
This Is an Important election and
should be 80 regarded by the citizens
entitled to vote.
AS far as known there is only one
ticket in the field, except in the
Fifth precinct, and that is non
artlsan. But 1t would be q mistake
,or the voters to stay at home on that
recount. Those who desire the election
IF the candidates agreed on by the
dominating conventions must so ana
Yote for them. II the people generally
alto cast their votes. 1t would be pos
iible for any opposition there may be

people. Sometimes few votes, or even
single vote, decides an election. 1t
therefore of the highest Importance
hat the citizens go to the polls on
Wednesday,, even though there is but
,ne ticket in the field, practically.
Vote carly and do not wait for con-
vcyances to take you to the polls. An
American citizen should not need to be
arried to the voting place asif he were
gnorant of, or Indifferent to, the duties
ST citizenship. Go and cast your votes
early for the candidates agreed on and

Ions.

MRS. sAGE's UTOPIA.

.
Since becoming the custodian and
almoner of her husbands millions,
Mrs. Russell Sage has shown herself
not merely Lady Bountiful, but
something better. While dispensing
benefits with an unstinted hand she
has done so with admirable discrimln
alton. Her methods are original and
reflect the inspiration of deep sym
uathy with human needs. The latest
expression of this Is the establishment
of a model city in Long Island, nine
miles from New York, that Will pro-
vide homes for fifteen hundred famil-
les. The conditions are practical, and
while it Is impossible to project their
observance far into the future, the be-
ginning will be on substantial foundu-
lions and will attract Il class of people
who will feel pride and ambition to
maintain the standards proposed for
them. The prospect of winning home
for $50 u month and upward In Il con-
genial community is likely to have II
drawing quality. While 1t Is intimated
that later Mrs. Sage may make prOvi-
sion in Il similar way for laboring mon
she has in this instance recognized
quite as urgent need. There Is no
class In the great social and CONNER
cial maclstrom of New York more em-
barrased BY existing conditions than
the families of moderate means, tho
men of limited salaries, in efforts to
find homes within their resources. The
best feature of this well-planned en-
terprlse Is that it is not n charity at
NIL The welfare of those for whom 1t
Is intended Is II primo consideration.
The project has been worked out with
that end prominently In view, but 1t Is
also expected that the returns Will
show it to be y good investment as

out IN the Mills hotels, has given fair
dividends and has proved Il blessing to

placed in the hands Of experts, who
will put into it both enthusiasm and
valuable experience. The work Is OF Il

srANps EAR INVESTIGATION.

"A few days ago we noticed in these
columns an appeal made to the swedish
government by ignorant Augustana
clergymen for the expulsion of our mis-
sionaries in that country.
We would like to call the attention
OF those clcrgymen TO the fact that an

tary whether he was aware OF tnc pro-
,,aganda which was being carried on all
over the country by the Mormons, with
a view to inducing women ana young
girls from English villages to so out
to America to join their community.
"Mr. Churchill said inquiry had been
mado into the allegations which had
reached the Home Office, and no ground
for action had been found. Hc was
informed that polygamy was now for

Church as we'll as by the law of the

BABY WASTED TO SKELETON

my little son, when about year
and half old, began to have sores
come out on his face. I had a physi-
clan treat him, but the sores grew
worse. Then they began to come out
on his arms, then on other parts of
his body, and then one came on his
chest, worse than the others. Then I
called another physician. Still he
grew worse. At the end Of about a
year and half of suffering he grew
so bad that I had to tie his hands in
cloths at night to keep him from
scratching the sores and tearing the
flesh. He got to be mere skeleton,
and was hardly able to walk.

cura Soap and Cuticura Ointment.

Longevity.

DR.. Jacques Bertillon of Paris has
started a worldwide discussion by his
advice to marry if you want to live to
good old age" "A married man or
woman has," he says, thrice as much
chance for good long run of life as a
bachelor or spinster." This eminent
authority on the sexes also shows by
statistics that the average mortality
among widowers is greater than the
average among married men, so he
recommends that they marry, provided
they are under 60 years of age.
The married live longer than the
single for the reason that, as a rule,
they lead more regular lives. Unmar-
ried men often indulge in late hours
and amusements which impair their
health, while the married are living
generally nearer to the laws of health
and conserving their mental and
physical powers so that longer life is
sure to be their lot. It does not re-
quire statistics to prove this. In every
community there are enough married
couples to demonstrate that DR.. Ber-
tillon's observations and deductions
are well founded.

Benefit in Outdoor Schools.

Every city should have one or more
outdoor schools" He recommended
such institutions for all delicate, So
called scrofulous or anaemic children,
and those with tuberculosis of the
bones, who are now in ordinary
schools. Doctor Stoll declared that
twenty to forty per cent. of school
children in large cities are infected
with tuberculosis. BY the use of tu-
berculin, it was ascertained that 70 per
cent. of the children from tuberculous
homes were infected as against only 26
per cent. of those from supposedly
healthy homes. It was also found that
SO per cent. of the frail children from
healthy homes had the germs of the
disease, but that only 13 per cent of
the robust children from similar homes
were thus affected.

Cattle and tuberculosis.

Prof. Arloing, director of the Vet.
Urinary school at Lyons, France, main
tains he has perfected a method of
successfully protecting cattle against
tuberculosis. He employs vaccines
obtained by special cultural processes
from certain kinds of bovine bacil1.
These vaccines are introduced into
the cattle either by the mouth, by in
lection or by simultaneous injection.
Intravenous injections appear to be
the most effective. At a meeting of

Chauveau confirmed Prof. Arlloine's
