f'CASCARETSD BEST
 FOR THE BOWELS
The Millions of Cascaret Users Never Have Head
 aches, Constipation, Bil- iousness or Sick Stomach.

It is more necessary that you keep your Bowels, Liver and Stomach clean, pure and fresh than it is to keep the sewers and drainage of a large city. free from obstructfon
 Are you keeping clean inside with Cascarets-or merely forcing a pas sageway every few days with salts, cath artic pills or castor oil?- This is important.
 Cascarets inm ediate1y cleanse and regulate the stomach, remove the sour, undigested and ferInenting food and foul gases. take the excess bile from the liver and carry out of the system the constipated waste mat ter and poison in the intestines and bowels.
 No odds how badly and upset you feel, a Cascaret tonight will straight en you out by morning. They work while you sleep. A 1o-cent box from your druggist will keep your head clear, stomach sweet and your liver and bowels regular for months. Don't forget the children-their little in sides need a good, gentle cleansing, too.-Adv.

To Peter White The Local School System Supt. of Springfield Schools to s be the InquisitOr "A PRACTICAL MAN"
 SAY HIS SPONSORS And His Bit Will be 1000 SimOleonS to Include All
 Things Even to Mani . curing

The board of Education is going to have the schools and the school sys- tenn of the city investigated The scheme came out at the meeting of the board of Education last night. Such an investigation as is proposed is expected to point out needs of the board in such pronounced manner as to impress the board of Appor- tionment-
 N W. Bishop, instigator of the plan to investigate the schools, in discuss ing the matter with his colleagues last night said: CT believe that an in vestigation along the line proposed would have a potent effect toward Il getting larger appropriations. Their ears (meaning the ears of the Board of Apportionment mem bers) have been dulled to anything we may say on the subject of money. We find it useless to point out our needs to them- I wouldn't be surprised if they cut us down to even 9 less approprfa- tion next year than they did last.
 A. w. Bell endeavored to show that other investigations made this year in Bridgeport. such as the Peter investigation and the charities depart ment investigation, have availed the city nothing for the large expendi- nan thought the investigation might be desira bIe but he wanted to know where the money was coming from to pay for it.5 MT. Bishop informed hinas that it would not be taken from any of the appropriations for the present year but would be forthcon- ing from the board of Apportionment next winter when that board meets to apportion the city moneys. MT Bishop said he had assurances from members of that board that the mon meantime until the board of Appor- tionment does meet the expenses for the investigation will be met so that ''the board of Education will not be eYnbarrassed."
 James Van Sickle superintendent of schools in Springfield. Mass. is go- ing to do the investigation with such assistants as he may need. He esti- between s1,60o and s2,oo0; perhaps less. The board voted to engage him to make the Investigation and to limit the. entire expen allure for this was one of several experts whoS want ed to do the job The others, accord ing to MT. Bishop, were the high est authorities on educational maffers toned so far as it's thaoreticaI ap- p11cation was ooncerned but in Mr Van Sickle thez special committee. found a man who was a sspractica1 man He will make a practical irI- vestigation because he 9is engaged in practical educational work and meets practical problems.
 The special committee according to MT. Bishop had interviewed several other mentw1Io had been recomnend- ed to do the worEsS- All of the oaife CTS had impressed the committee assba- ing. too theoretical in their procedure of investigation. The committee had about given up hopes of having an investigation when Mr. Van Sickle was interviewed. Being a practical man he soon impressed the special committee. He gets the5job and will begin work at once, devoting two and three Edayz a. week ito the job.
