State Treasurer Henry Johnson is
again among the advocates of move
to abolish the fiscal year in doing the
business of the state The argument
is made that if the state worked I'M
der a calendar year when the legisla-
ture arrived on Jan. 10 it would have
trial balance before it for the two
years preceding, and would be in much
better position to appropriate for the
next two years. 1t also is argued that
there would be less confusion and that
the people would better understand
the business of the state.
Just how to arrange to pay the sum
owing to the school trust fund in con-
nection with the forestry activities,
since the supreme court affirmed the
findings Of Judge Hastings of Green
Bay in that case, will be a problem
for the 1917 legislature to solve. The
suggestion has been made that the
state issue certificates of Indebtedness
with time limit 1t is against the
law for the state to exceed it's debt
limit, but the situation must be met,
and it will call for all the legal
knowledge and practical knowledge
represented.

REMEDY FOR nEURAsTnEnIl

Neurasthenia is condition otexhaus.
ton Of the nervous system. The causes
are varied. Continuous work, mental
or physical, without proper vacation
periods, without proper attention to
diet and exercise, also worry over the
struggle for success, are the most COM
mon causes. Excuses of almost any
kind may produce it. Some disease
like the grip, will cause neurasthenis.
So also will Z severe shock, intense
anxiety or grief.
The symptoms are oversepeitivenee6,
irritability, disposition to worry over
trifes, headache, possibly nausea.
The treatment is one of nutrition OF
the nerve cells, requiring . non-alco-
holic tonic. As the nerves get their
nourishment from the blood the treat
ment must be directed towards build
ing up the blood. DR.. Williams Pink
Pills act directly on the blood and have
proved of the greatest benefit in many
cases of neurasthenia. A tendency to
anemia, or bloodlessness, shown by
most neurasthenic patients, is also cor.
rected by these tonic pills.
Two useful books "Diseases of the
Nervous SYSTEM ana "What to Eat
and How to Eat" will be sent free by
