the hardest blow that has been struck
at British rule in South Africa since
the days OF the BOer war.

by Col. Martiz has been crushed but
the rising OF Gen. DeWet is the cause
for real alarm. There was much ac-

FOR
 LEGISLATION
Committee is Selected to Present School Needs to Next Legislature, With Phoenix, Bisbee and Doug las Represented
Special to The Republican,

BISBEE. Feb Tin preparation for work in behalf of the schools of the state before tfe next legislature, President Payne Of the State Teach CTS association. has named a com mittee to frame needed legislation and conduct a publicity campaign in it's behalt.
 Superintendent C. F. Philbrook of Bisbee schools, according to an an nouncement received here yesterday, has been honored with appointment to this important committee, being enc of the three teachers chosen from over the state. The other two ale Superintendent J. D. Loper. of the Phoenix schools. and W. E. Lutz, Of the Douglas schools. Ex-officio members of the same committee have been named as follows: Dr. A. Ii. Wilde of the University of Ari- Zona, A. J. Matthews, Dr. II. R. Blome, C. O. Case, s. D. Payne.
 The committee will begin it's work immediately. Concerning legislation that it will be asked. there is said to be considerable that has suggest ed itself as very desirable for the betterment of the school service O. the state. The latter now stands high, but there is always room for improvement. Arizona Is paying more per capita for the education of the children than any other state, the free distribution of school books being one important factor in the cost. The legislation which will be asked will be for the purpose of se- curing higher efficiency. Those cho- sen to formulate the measures under which 1t will be striven to attain this, have the general confidence of the public of the state, through the high regulations they have earned as educators of ability.

Tho Dyspeptc: "How can a man
 live in a smell like that?"

Taste, sight and smell all have an influence upon digestion. If one eats something that does not taste good one retards the work of digestion because the juices necessary to di gest the thing eaten will not flow in correct proportion.
 On the other hand. good food will always Xcite the taste through actual contact with the food in the mouth or through the sight or sense of smell, unless the stomach knows that it cannot digest it.
 We thus readily learn that the simple act of giving nature the di- gestive fluids she needs, will bring tasting, smelling and seeing dainty dishes will excite a rousing appetite.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet are com posed of natural ingredients that a worn out digestion simply welcomes with wild delight. They enrich the stomach juices quickly so that if you want to eat an out the ordinary after the theater sort of a dinner, just carry Stuarts Dyspep- sia Tablet in your pocket, take ii after the meal and you will digest that meal.
