ST. ROSE HOSPITAL GETS IN.

The folks in this vicinity will be
highly pleased 10 know that St. Rose
hospital at Great Bend was recog
nized by the state board of control
last week, when that body distribut
ed large sum of money to semi-cha
liable institutions by giving the above
named 5000 for the coming year. II
has been the custom of the legisla.
ture to make appropriations each veal
to certain institutions. This appropri
alton was getting to be quite large,
for the reason that hospitals have in
the last few years been established
quite extensively, and every member
Of the'legiSlature in whose district wa:
one or more of the institutions made
an effort TO get his people recognized
by an appropriation. Therefore, at
the last session this plan was discon-
unued, and a hump sum given to the
board of control to be used at their
discretion. They in turn demanded
certain conditions to be complied with
which having been done, the distribu-
tion was made, and st. Rose came in
for the amount above stated. Although
small 1t is great help to the institu
lion.

It is not material to us whether you recommend the adoption of the first or the second method suggested by you in paragraph "A of House docu- ment IA; or if some other plan alt )uether different is worked out and adopted.

 Announcing that he. took the floor only because the reflections upon himself and his state in connection with the Lori ner case, the venerable senator said he had not thought it becoming in him to discuss the Lorimer affair either publicly or privately. When the time comes I shall vote according to the dictates of my conscience" he said.
 "As a candidate for the legislature. as candidate for Congress. as candidate for governor and as candidate for United States senator" he continued, mo one has ever charged that ever single dollar was used to influence any voter to vote for me or corruptly influence any member of the legislature to vote for me-

Boards ORIGINAL FUNCTION
Hirsute Adornment of Man Was in
tended to ShIeld the Face,
Throat and Chest

Why has nature provided man with
a beard, and why has woman not been
blessed-or bothered-with the same
facial adornment. DR.. James J. Walsh
we'll known writer and lecturer on
medical subjects, declares there Is no
doubt that the baasd was originally
a provision of nature for the pree,so-
tion OF the face of man, an outdoor
| creature, against the elements 1t was
shield for the face, the throat and
the chest. Man in earlier days wore
very little in the way of clothes The
upper part of his body, the shoulders
chest and neck, were entirely bare, as
far as we know, and in need of some
kind Of protection. So nature gave
him a thick beard Another theory
is that propounded by Doctor Hunt OF
Boston, who in the course of a paper
on the subject recently observed:
Woman finds a natural protection for
, her throat and chest in the fine layers
OF Fat that lie just under the skin
covering her neck, shoulders and
chest. Consequently she needs no
mat of hair to shield her chin and
I throat The larynx and traohea are
removed further from the surface of
the skin in woman than in man
Hence nature has provided a beard
for man for the purpose of protect
ing him, Just as the layers of fat pro-
tect a woman. You rarely find very
heavy growth Of beard on fat man.
