SCHOOL
FOR SEA GRIT
Instruction for Officers o
National Guard.

school for instruction for the Off
GERS of the National Guard OF New
Jersey will be established at Sea
Girt beginning June % and to con
tinue one week. The school will bt
in charge OF regular army officers
who will give technical instruction
to their National Guard pupils il
everything relating to their duties
An order was issued by the Governor
late Saturday afternoon through
Adjutant General Sadler to that eff
feet.
This step is entirely new In the
history Of the National Guard OF the
State. Regular officers have visited
Sea Grit, but Is critics rather than
as instructors. In this cas- the Off
GERS of the State Guard will receive
instruction similar to what is given
in the military schools on the Fed
eral reservations. 1t Is proposed to
..Aea~S MINIS ..aoN. u~sava oa~. p~.s
of the military routine in this State.
1t is in line with to policy of the
war department in bringing the Ma
tIonal Guard up to such a state of
efficiency that 1t may be counted
upon as a reliable second line of de-
Tense.
The military school will precede
the regular summer encampment of
the different regiments, so that the
lessons received may be utilized by
the officers in practice during the
encampment. 1t is not known what
regular officers will be designated
as instructors. There are 383 COM
missioned officers of the National
Guard, exclusive of forty-fve officers
of the Naval Reserve. OF these Off
GERS three are generals, 106 are staff
and departmental officers, six ar cav
airy officers, ten are officers Of field
artillery and 243 are officers OF the
infantry. Last year th~irty-nine com.
missioned officers from brigadier,
general to second lieutenant re,
signed, retired or became superan-
nuated and two died, reducing the
number to 1858.

SUPERFLUOUSHA|R
Why Not Shave It Off! If You Do
It Right, It Does 1t Better
Than Most Depilatories

You might just as well shave as use a
pasty substance which is to be applied to
remove Superfluous hair. This simply re-
moves the surface hair; therefore the ef-
feet is the same as shaving. only the ra-
zor is more convenient and takes II OF
cleaner. OF course, it does not matter
which way you do it; you only remove
the surface hair, which will return
stronger after each removal. The same
applies to other worthless compounds
and so-called liquid cures" De Miracle
is not like these; it is the only method
that gives proof that it Is absolutely non
poisonous, safe, and sure. You are not
asked to buy it on our BARE WORD.
1t iso the only preparation of its kind
which Is indorsed by physicians, sur
geons, dermatolOgists, medical journals,
prominent magazines, and newspapers.
Remember, the longer you use such
the stronger the hair will grow and the
is sold at all good stores. including S.
Kann, Sons & Co. and the W. s. Thomp-
son Pharmacy.
No honest dealer will offer you a sub
5titute on which he makes more profit.
We will send you 52-page booklet con-
tanning full information concerning this
remarkable treatment You should read

LAUDEDIN SPEECHES
Forty-eighth Year of Order
Begun at Exercises.

The forty-eighth year on the Pythian
anniversary exercises at Pythian Temple.
The services were unpretentious, the
speechmaking being confined to remarks
lauding the aim of the order.
The growth of the order from its found
ing in Washington, February 10, 1864, in
Temperance Hall, 914 E street northwest,
with ten members to the present number
considerably more than 700, ,OOo was shown
as the basis of the argument by Harry
p. Wiley, grand chancellor, that the or
der is firmly established, and has re-
ceived the good wishes Of the nation.
Short addresses along the same line
were made by Gen Arthur ]. Stobbart,
commanding the uniformB ranks of the
knights of Pythias. and ". E. Andrews,
