out of our schools and municipal af-
fairs anything that tends toward
compulsory medical inspection or
medical inspection of any kind. If
we have it in any form we will get
the vaccine virus, serums and anti
TOMS in all their forms.
We have more medical inspection
now with no law to back it than a
large majority of the people would
approve could they be heard from.
No laws, just rules and regulations
the doctors see fit to force, upon us
because some want it and many un-
suspecting people accept the situa-
ton without protest.
If medical inspection in schools
has legal backing the outcome will be,
as soon as the child is in the school
the parent will have no recourse and
nothing to do but take whatever
treatment the officials and doctors in
charge prescribe. Cannot the reader
see this? ...
| The w. c., T. u. as an organized
body stands for all efforts and re-
NEEDLES to help nature throw off dis
ease instead of the use of narcotics
and the knife to kill germs and cut
out disease.
IF the above statement is doubted
one can read articles in the "Union
Signal by the worlds and national
superintendent of the medical depart
ment, Mrs. Martha M. Allen or the
"Annual Minutes" containing re-
ports on all matters that have to do
with health.
It is always ciassed by authority
that housekeeping and agricultural
pursuits are the two most healthful
lines of work.
Now that we have these questions
brot before the schools and people
everywhere we can quote what Miss
Willard said in the earlier days Of
her temperance work with more
hopeful outlook for the well being of
the working classes. s'The head of
every family ought to own piece of
ground, pig, chickens and a cow"
With this idea in mind and the dis
carding Of all poisonous treatments
for human ills which eminent auth
ority tells us detrioriates the nerve
forces, we will return the physical
and mental faculties necessary for
each to make a legitimate life long
livelihood and enable the laboring
classes to progress toward the
higher ideals of life.

Temperance and Labor.


Miss Willard said: "There are two
changeless sources of solid happiness;
first, the belief in God, second, the
habit of hard work towards useful
ends"
The writer would like to bring be-
fore the reader the force of the Sec
ond thot that in the interest of help
ing to solve the labor problems we
hear so much about nowadays.
The greatest aim of the w. C. T. u.
work is to try to help people to help
themselves. One method is to edu-
cate against the use of anything that
has the effect of destroying the nerve
force of the human system. Alcohol,
cigarettes and tobacco in all its forms,
patent medicins which contain poisons,
vaccine virus to keep off smallpox,
anti-toxin and serums to make one
immune from dyphtheria and typhoid
fever. All these destroy the nerve
forces and keep nature from being
able to throw off disease.
Nothing short Of the normal nerve
forces will maintain vitality, action,
clear brain and efficiency.
Those interested in these matters
can help by procuring and distribut-
ing the free literature with articles
along all these lines of thot. Get the
mothers out. to register and vote for
the right kind of school and municipal
officers. Have in mind the keeping

You Can't Brush Or
Wash Out DandruH

The only sure way to get rid of
dan6ruff is to dissolve it, then you
destroy it entirely. To do this, get
about four ounces of ordinary liquid
arvon; apply it at night when retir-
ing: use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub it in gently with the finger
tips.
Do this tonight, and by morning,
most if not all, OF your dandruff VIII
be gone. and three or four more ep-
plications will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every single sign and
trace of it, no matter how much
dandruff you may have.
You will find. too. that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky ard soft, and
look and feel a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and
never fails to do the work.-Adv.

IRELAND AFLAME
Nineteen British Police Bar
racks Are Attacked.
Tax Records Are DESTROYED by
Belfast MObs.

| London. May 1S.-The British gov
eminent has decided to create a spe-
cial judicial body to examine the cases
or freshmen who are under arrest. it
was announced in the house of COM
mons today by Andrew Bonar Law,
the government leader.
Reports OF an unusual number of ac-
tivities by armed and masked men in
various sections of Ireland were re-
ceived in London today. The reports
began trickling in early in the morn
ing and by noon had reached the pro-
portions of an avalanche.
Tax Records Destroyed.
Most of the barracks which were
the object of attacks were not occu-
pied by the regular police force, which
had been sent to the larger centers.
Income tax offices also were attacked
and many documents were destroyed.
A notable instance of such attacks
was a raid upon an income tax office
in the heart of Belfast. At the Irish
office it was said at mid-afternoon
that that office was without advices
concerning the events.
Meanwhile Viscount French, the
viceroy, was in London for a confer
ence with Andrew Bonar Law, the
government leader in the house of
commons, regarding the policy to be
pursued looking toward restoration of
order in Ireland.
The reports of the demonstrations
followed closely the announcement
made by Mr.. Bonar Law in the house
of commons that Gen. Sir Nevil
Macready, military commander of Ire
land, was inaugurating new plans
thru which il was expected conditions
shortly would be improved.
Nineteen Barracks Attacked.
Dublin, May 13.-At least nineteen
police barracks in various parts of Ire
land were wiped out in the course of
widespread destruction of public
property and other activities by bands
of armed and masked men in various
parts of Ireland last night. Five in
come tax and customs offices also
were raided and papers found in them
burned.
Clergyman Is Wounded.
Two mail cars and one mail train
was held up and official papers taken
from them.
One man was killed. in the outskirts
of Dublin. where barracks were be-
ing burned.
The Rev. T. G.. Wilkinson, one of
the canons of the Down cathedral at
Downpatrick, was shot and critically
wounded while pursuing raiders on
the street. The houses of two news
paper editors were raided and one
anti-Sinn Fem editor was tarred and
feathered Some of the police bar
racks destroyed were unoccupied and
others were inhabited only by the Gus
todians.
The reports of the raiders activities
have been pouring in all day from nu-
merouS sections.

DENY FIRE STATION CHANGE.
City Commissioners Say Rumored
Transfers Are Not Contemplated.

City Commissioners Say RumOred
Transfers Are Not Contemplated.
Rumors regarding change in the
location OF several fire stations in To-
peka were denied today by the city
commissioners. No such move has
been contemplated, they declare.
The removal OF No. 6, on Seward
avenue, is farthest from the commits
sioners' minds. That this station is
essential to the proper protection of
that part Of the city is openly con-
coded. A motor truck probably will be
added to the equipment of No. in
short time, it was said.
The moving of No. 3, at 512 Jeffer-
son street, to East Fourth street be-
yond the Santa Fe tracks has been
discussed unofficially. No. could
easily cover the present territory of
No. 3. This would give the east side
ample protection, but would not bring
about the abandonment Of No. s, as it
would be impracticable, If not i'm
possible, for fire trucks to pass under
the Branner street viaduct in its pres
ent condition, officials point out.

To Get Strong and

People who have tried it say that one Of
the quickest and surest ways In which thos,
who are weak. thin. nervous and run down
can grow strong and put pounds of
solid stay-there flesh, Is to take a 5-grain
tablet Of Blood-Iron Phosphate with each
meal. This is doubtless due to the well
known fact that Blood-Iron Phosphate
quickly builds up depleted nervous energy
necessary to make ricls, red strength build

or are lacking in the old time vigor, en-

Hurt i'm .Scrimmages

CHESTER. Pa, Sept. 25. Pennsyl-
vania Military Colleges varsity will put
in some vigorous work this week, pre-
pairing for the game with Stevens In
stitute Of Hoboken next Saturday.
The Hoboken squad has not lost
game in the last six years, and it is
reported that Stevens has developed
husky and aggressive team this year.
In spite of this situation, however,
Coach Pauxtis would be confident of
winning the Stevens game were it not
for a condition that has arisen in his
own squad the last week. Three of his
best men have been lamed in scrim-
images and Pauxtis will deem himself
fortunate if the cripples are able to go
into the Stevens game. One of the
cripplcs is Leon Campuzano, who has
helped the cadets to many a gridiron
victory. Camp has developed lame
back as result Of his savage line

under treatment are Crow and Henry.
