become infected and maybe others

dangers from the disease
She strongly advised that Hillsboro
have a permanent visiting nurse.
This, she said, would cost about 1920
a year. The work done by this nurse
would be of charitable and semi
charitable nature aud in giving advice
to everyone whether able to pay or n, t
in regard to the care and precautions
to be taken with the sick, where a
nurse was not needed all the time
She said that while everyone had
taken most kindly TO her suggestions
and seemed to be carrying them out
that she was afraid that when she was
gone, If no one continued to call their
attention to the necessity of doing
these things they would fall back into
the old dangerous conditions also that
there would always be new cases where
attention and instructions would be
needed She said that the nurse could
also inspect the school buildings and
examine the defective children. To
raise this mon y she suggested volun-
tary contributions and said that if
1900 people would each give 81 how
easy it would be.
She spoke of Public Health Ex-
hibit by the State Board of Health,
which would be given here soon, under
the direction of the Home and School
Association. This, she stated, was a
most interesting and instructive ex-
hibit and should be visited by every
one Further and more detailed an
nouncements will oe given of it later
In concluding Miss Mcnamara said
that she wanted to thank the physi.
clans of Hillsboro and the members of
the Home and School Association for
their kindness and the assistance rem
dered her in the work. She said the
and the women could not
have been more thoughtful and con-
siderate and given her heartier coop

Anecdotes of AaassIz.

The son of Louis Agassiz, who has
Just written book about his distfn-
guished father, has some good stories
to tell of the elder mans courage and
temper. During his first return to
Germany he had occasion to resent
the behavior Of restaurant waiter
who was neglecttng everyone else in
favor Of some army officers who were
seated at another table. One of the
officers defended the waiter. "Agas-
siz remarked that he was not speaking
to him; the officer handed Agassiz his
card; the latter tore 1t up; the officer
started to draw his sword, but before
he could get 1t out of the scabbard
Agassiz knocked him down with
chair" Another story relates to the
life of the great scientist in America
A few years before his death he came
into his house in Cambridge delighted
with an occurrence ne had just seen in
Boston. An automobile pushing
through the crowd had knocked down
a woman. Her escort proceeded to
pummel the chauffeur. But why"
asked the listener, didn't the owner
come to his chauffeur's assistannce?"
"Oh," exclaimed Agassiz, 81 was hold
ing him."

Change in Plan for Teachers Summer
School

In letter issued Saturday by Payson
Smith, State superintendent of public
schools, attention is called to an import
ant change in the plan of State summer
schools for teachers. The work in the
future will be SO arranged as to aid
teachers in their efforts to raise the
term will be held at each summer at
some of the State Normal schools.
In his letter Supt Smith says:
Teachers who hold elementary grade
certificates and have had considerable
experience may expect, after three or
four terms of attendance. to raise the
grade of their certificates to that of the
professional grade without further ex-
animation. Credit for each terms work
will be recorded. The number of terms
that a teacher will be required to spend
in raising the grade of her certificate will
of course depend much upon the individ-
ual ability and progress shown. The
course will include School Management,
School Law, Methods of Teaching the
Common School Subjects, including
Reading, History with Civics, Geography,
English Grammar. Physiology, Nature
study, Music, Penmanship, Manual Train
ing and Domestic Science. Teachers will
of course select from the foregoing those
branches which seem best adapted to
their own needs.
The only expense will be for travel
and board with an incidental fee of 81
to cover the cost of loan of books, mate
rial used and other Incidental expenses

the conditions that existed at the time
of the adoption of the Constitution in
relation to the manner in which polit-
ical power was then exercised by the
male citizens alone, 1t was not the in
tention of those adopting the Con-
stitution to include women as eligible
to constitutional Offices unless it ex-
pressly appeared in the language OF
the Constitution.
1T was intimated, however. that the
Legislature might create new minis
terial offices and authorize the per-
Torrance of the duties thereof by
either sex. However, when the office
of registre of deeds was created in
1921 by Chapter SO of the Public Laws
of that year, nothing is found therein
expressly making sex qualification
of holding the office. But in interpre-
tating this statute. 1t should be borne
in mind that women under the COM
mon law were ineligible to hold pub
lie office; and while the use of the
masculine pronoun is perhaps of lit
tie weight except in connection with
the other considerations, it should be
noted that it was therein provided
that the register should furnish a
bond with sureties in the sum of
s20o0 "a contract which married women
at least at this time were not capable
of entering into.
These considerations together with
the fact that for 80 years it has been
the uniform practice to elect only
males to this office, are sufficient in
our opinion to warrant you in ,refus-
ing to depart from this unbroken prac-
tice without legislative action or ju-
dicial Interpretation" so

What is WOf71a71'S

visor Lies in the Careful Resula-
ton of the Bowels.
If woman's beauty depended upon
cosmetics, every woman would be a
picture of loneliness. But beauty lies
deeper than that. It lies in health. In
the majority of cases the basis OF
health, and the cause of sickness, can
be traced to the action of the bowels.
The headaches, the lassitude, the
sallow skin and the lusterless eyes are
usually due to constipation. So many
things that women do habitually con-
duce to this trouble. They do not eat
carefully. they eat indigestible foods
because the foods are served daintily
and they do not exercise enough. But
whatever the particular cause may be
it is important that the condition
should be corrected.
An ideal remedy for women, and one
especially suited to their delicate re-
quirements, is DR.. Caldwells Syrup
Pepsin, which thousands of women en-
dorse highly, among them Mrs. c. S.
Vance of 511 S. Ray ST., New Castle,
Pa. AT times she had spells of indi-
gestion so severe that she thought
she would die. Syrup Pepsin regu-
lated her stomach and bowels, and
she attributes her excellent health to-
day to this remedy.
All the family can use DR.. CaId-
wells Syrup Pepsin, for thousands of
mothers give 1t to babies and children.
1t is also admirably suited to the re-
quirements of elderly people, in fact
to all who by reason of age or in
firmity cannot stand harsh salts
cathartics, pills or purgatives. These
should always be avoided, for at best

Results of Fire Prevention Day

The first Fire Prevention day is now
of the results of the campaign Satur-
day State Insurance Commissioner j.
Wallace Blunt of Skowhegan said:
Yes, feel that much good has been
accomplished as result of our first
Fire Prevention day. AS you know the
idea of the days observance was to
impress upon the minds of the people
of this State that we should take all
possible means to. safeguard the lives
of our citizens from fire disaster, and
to reduce, if possible, the awful de-
struction of our property by fire.
IT feel that as a result of the ac-
tivity of such organizations as the
Grange, the Boards of Trade, the
Women's clubs, and through the OBJ
servance of the day by the schools
Of this State, we have brought this
thought very freely before the people
of Maine and that future results will
be we'll worth the effort made by
these organizations.
From advices received by our de-
partment we are assured that the day
was generally observed by the peo-
pie OF the different communities
throughout the State and with the re-
suits of the clean and paint up cam
paign which will come next week.
believe that Maine will be a far safer
and cleaner State than ever before.
We have now made a start in this
movement of fire prevention. Let each
and every one resolve to make each
day a Fire Prevention day, as it af-
fects our homes and places of BUSH
ness. and we should see the results in
a very decreased fire loss
