No Endorsement of the state aid law

commission of FIVE members to be from

New York, where $780, is being
spent on roads, to study road con-

State Superintendent of Public In
struction, FL. B. Dewey, of Olympia,
spoke on the subject "Rural educa-

movement" Mr.. Dewey urged some
method to keep children on the farm
rather than to have them 60 to the
city. He urged better schools in the
country, high school for each town
ship. in short the centralized idea,
but pointed out that it could not be
successful unless the community poss-
essed good roads which would enable
children to attend school without dis
comfort. He declared the question
of roads to be the first requirement
when the consolidation of school dis
tricts was to be undertaken.
State Highway Commissioners FL. L.
Bowlby made report in which he
outlined the work done and in pros
pect on the eighteen state highways.
During the latter portion of his ad-

BABY WASTED TO SKELETON

my little son, when about year
and half old, began to have sores
come out on his face. l 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 /
called another physician. Still he
grew worse. At the end of about
year and a half of suffering he grew
so bad that l had to tie his hands in
cloths at night to keep him from
scratching the sores and tearing the
flesh. He got to be a mere skeleton.

my aunt advised me to try Cuti-

sent to a drug store and got cake Of
Cuticura Soap and box of the Oint-
ment and followed directions. At the
end of two months the sores were all
well. He has never had any sores
of any kind since. l can sincerely say
that only for Cuticura my child would
have died l used only one cake Of

The great superstition Of "the evil

DRINK WATER TO CURE
KIDNEYS AND RHEUMATISM
The People Do Not Drink Enough
Water to Keep Healthy,
Says Well-known
Authority.

"The numerous cases of kidney and
bladder diseases and rheumatism are
mainly due to the fact that the drink
ing of water, natures greatest medi-
cine, has been neglected.
Stop loading your system with med
icines and cure-alls; but get on the.
water wagon. If you are really sick,
why, of course, take the proper medi-
cines-plain, common vegetable treat
ment, which will not shatter the
nerves or ruin the stomach
To cure Rheumatism you must make
the kidneys do their work; they are
the filters Of the blood. They must
be made to strain out Of the blood che
waste matter and acids that cause
rheumatism; the urine must be neu-
tralized so It will no longer be
source Of irritation to the bladder. and,
most Of all, you must keep these acids
from forming in the stomach. This
is the cause of stomach trouble and
poor digestion. For these conditions
you can do no better than take the
following prescription: fluid Extract
Dandelion, one-haIf ounce; Compound
Kargon. one ounce; Compound Syrup
SarsapariIla, three ounces. Mix by
shaking well In bottle and take in
teaspoonful doses after each meal and
at bedtime. but don't forget the
water. Drink plenty and often.

pie prescription should be posted up

first sign OF an attack of rheumatism,
backache or urinary trouble. no mat

/ murder. What happened after his re-
lease was told by his old schoolmate
as follows:
"In the following summer a Mrs.
Curran sent her little eight or nine
year-old girl out for some thread"
(Pomeroy's mother kept a small
store.) 1.-THE little -Katie-never
came back. She disappeared like a
Whit of cigar smoke in a stormy mid
Atlantic. Her mother was frantic
with grief. Everybody became de-
tective. The months rolled away. One
rainy day little deaf-mute pulled at
policeman's coat, and by signs in
Dictated that he wished the policeman
to go along with him, which he did.
Murderer Apprehended.
They went out of the highways
and byways until they came to the
Dorchester marshes. which were as
gloomy in those days as the marshes
of Abel Magwitch and Pip. The lit
tie fellow was in a terrible state of
excitement, and soon the officer was
when they came to murdered and mu-
tilated little Horace MILAN, lying in
the mud and grass. They carried the
body to the station house, and then
had plaster of paris casts taken of
the footprints in the mud near where
the boys body was found They then
went to Mrs. Pomeroy's house. Jesse
was in bed.
His shoes exactly fitted the casts.
He was arrested. While he was in
Jail his mother moved away from the
old home on Broadway for obvious
reasons. Then the house was torn
down to make room for better one.
While the workmen were digging in
the cellar they unearthed the little
corpse of Katie Curran Then Jesse
confessed that he had murdered her
and little MILAN.
"She had come into the store for
the thread her mother had sent her
for. Jesse was alone in the store.
He told her to go back and get it
to, turn to the right.
Fate of Little Victim.
"In the meantime he had turned
the key in the front door, leading to
the street, returned, followed the lit
tie girl, and as she started back from
the cellarway he sprang upon her.
pushed her down the cellar stairs,
mutilated, then killed her. He then
dug a grave in the cellar, buried her,
came upstairs, washed his hands and
face, unlocked the front door, had his
dinner, and went to bed. He was the
only one in the world who knew of
that little corpse in his mothers eel
lar"
When Pomeroy was tried petition
signed by thousands of mothers was
sent to the governor praying him to
hang jesse. Because of his youth,
however, the sentence was committed.
Many efforts have been made to Sc
cure his release. On one occasion a
number of Virginia women appealed
to a Massachusetts governor to set
Pomeroy free. The governor wrote
back:
IF Pomeroy had committed his |
crimes in your state he would have
been burned alive at the stake, and |
there would be no necessity for a
pardon"
Yet it is probably true, as has often |
been asserted, that if science in 1876 /
had progressed as far as it has In |
1910 in explaining the pathological |
causes for such crimes as Pomeroy's, |
he would have been sent, not to soil
tary confinement in state prison,
but to an asylum for the criminal in
sane.
Pomeroy was arrested in 1874. The
MILAN boy, for whose murder he was
tried, was only four years old. In
1876 Pomeroy began his life In
Charlestown prison.
