FIVE,DAYs' LABoR,oN RocK,PlLE

Considerable interest and not
little satisfaction has been felt at
the report from Oregon that mil
lionaire who scorched through the
streets of the city at the rate of so
miles am hour, was sentenced to five
days labor on the municipal rock
pile.
A lot of people would be glad to
hear of other such cases. Not that
they have amy particular aversion to
either millionaires, or automobiles but
that the matter of reckless driving is
frequently considered all too lightly.
Wholesale murder by automobiles Is
really serious business and the more
responsibility of endangering life,
should be as great as when a. man
uses fire arms recklessly. But the
latter has inevitably received the
SeVerer punishment.

The resolution to appropriate 49,
900 for the strengthening of the sec
ond floor Of the Training School and
putting it in shape to be used as an
agricultural and domestic science
school. brought out quite lot of
orato4y. There was much argument
against the appropriation by the Pitts
vile rep esentatives H. A. Thomas
of Sherry, also, did not appear to be
much n favor OF the school. Mr.. Cog
gins explained that as the board had
established the school at the Novem-
Der meeting, the statutes Of the state
required that they go ON with it,and
carry it through. He also explained
that two-thirds of the cost of main
tenance would be refunded by the
state. The molten to adopt the resolu
ton apppopriating the money was fl
naIly put and carried by 81 to II.
The committee appointed at the
November session to investigate and
report on the adyisability of selling
the Poor Farm and the equipment
and building poor house and locat-
ing it upon the County Asylum farm
reported in favor of continuing the
poor farm where it is.
The motion to adopt the report of
the committee was carried by am
Overwhelming vote.
H. F. Beam, of Vesper, was APP
pointed to fill the position of trustee
of Wood County INSANE Asylum made
vacant by the resignation of Geo. L.
Ward.
A resolution to increase the salary
of the Register of deeds from $500
to $500, and the salary of the dep
uty register from $500 to $500, was
the cause of lively debate The res
olution was finally killed by vote of
% to 20. It will be remembered that
at the November session of the
board, a change from the fee system
was made to a fixed salary system.

BATTLES IN THE BLOOD.
Antitoxins Fight the Germs of Their
 Particular Disease.

When any animal has certain dis ease its body produces large quantities of the particular antitoxin that will fight that disease. If the blood of this animal be introduced into another ani- nal the latter will get the disease, but in a milder form. and will at the same time be stimulated te~ secrete large quantities of the antitoxin. It is now capable of resisting an attack by an army of powerful germs and becomes immune" to the real disease.
 If its blood be drawn and filtered to free it from red and white corpuscles the serum that is left is merely the watery part of the blood heavily charged with the anttoxins of that disease. This. injected into the blood of a person suffering from 1t. reen- forces the antitoxins already there and speedily routs the enemy by neutraliz- ing the poisons that tue toxic germs are liberating.
 Serum is prepared in two ways-one by taking 1t from the blood of another animal. the other by a culture from the blood of the patient himself.
 There are only ore or two diseases that can be cured by medicine. In all others the medicine is given merely to stimulate the natural production of antitoxins. If We knew how to make an anutoxln for every disease we should have no more nse for medicine. The number of diseases for which antitoxins are being discovered Is null tiplying year by year.

 "Why. certainly. Willie. What's more. my boy. if you'll wait for me I'll go with you.''
 All right, sir sniffed' Willie as he returned to his desk and waited pa tently.
 And, lo and behold. poor little Willie had told the truth. and when he and Wiggins started out together the lat ter not only lost one of the best games of the season, but had to attend the obsequies of an old lady in whom he had no interest whatever as well.- Harnar,s

FRlSKY SENATE PAGES.
They Are Great Mimics and Discuss
 Burlesque Legislation.


 They are the greatest mimics in the world They can take off the idiosyn. crasies and humorous peculiarities of the senators to a IT"
 Sometimes when the senate is not sitting and too many visitors and page bosses are not around to observe the proceedings the pages themselves go into a solemn senatorial session. One will impersonate the vice president. another the chief clerk. and so on. Various other boys will pretend to be either their favorite senators or the senators of home states. Each boy oc cupies the seat to which the real sen ator is entitled.
 Bang, goes the vice presidents gavel, and the extraordinary session of pages has convened There is always an argument as to. which senator shall be recognized when the regular order of business is reached. Every conceiv- able current subject is discussed, with a goodly sprinkling of baseball legis' lation," which always carries with 1t rider by which each page senator shs be entitled to an annual self renewing pass for all the seasons games.
