schools will probably have money
to pay January, February and
March and seven-tenths Of April
salaries and expenses. In the above
table no money is figured for tut
ton, except that portion received
from the state liquid fuel tax and
the sales tax, based on the average
daily attendance of all pupils at
tending our schools. Under the
present law the adjoining townships
will not have the funds to run their
schools, pay transportation and tut
tion to the M. & M. schools. I'm
less the present legislature makes
some provision to correct this con-
dition, the M. & M. schools will be
behind in their budget on July l.,
1895, which date is the close of the
fiscal year.
The teachers are always behind
schedule in receiving their pay, and
from the way money is coming in
they will continue to be months be-
hind.
The foundation program that has
been defeated number of times in
the past two years, is coming up
again at this session of the legis-
lature. Many organizations over
the state are back of this program
because it carries with it a differ
ent method of distributing all state
school money and will provide more
money for the districts most in
need of state funds.
Under the proposed foundation
program the state guarantees to ev-
cry school minimum program for
school year of nine months. The
local school officials believe that
under the foundation program the
M. & NJ. schools as we'll as all the
schools in the county will fare
much better than under the pres
ent plans. We believe that our
children are entitled to the same
advantages as the children in the
more wealthy sections. In view of
the above information, all the peo-
nle of this section of the state
should urge their senator and rep
resentative to support the propos-
ed foundation program.-James M.
Turner, superintendent of Schools

Law and Order

DR.. c. l.. Venable has said rela-
tive to this subject in his hook tThe
Threshold of Life" "Here is
sign that says hands Off High ten
sion electrical current. Suppose you
touch it. No one will fine you nor
take you aside and chastise you, but
the current will burn and kill you.
The punishment is in the act itself.
Here is the law of gravity that
makes all objects fall toward the
earth. We all know this law. Sup
pose someone decided to disobey it
and jumped off a ten story building.
Would someone fine him or chastise
him for doing what the law said he
should not do? On the contrary he
would find punishment in what he
had done. In this our moral and
spiritual laws are not like our So
cial laws, but like our physical
laws. They carry their own inevi-
table punishments. If we lie, steal
or swear, the act itself brings its
punishment upon us. These moral
and social laws which we call Gods
laws carry their consequences with
them, and in other ways resemble
the social laws Of the state or COM
munity in that although they carry
consequences they do not carry
cOmpulsionS.

TUBERCULOSIS

The most embracing and import
ant phase of our civil welfare de-
pends upon arresting the spread of
tuberculosis. This disease is no re-
spector of persons, affecting anyone,
sparing neither rich nor poor, man
or child, and reaping its victims
from those most actively engaged
in the affairs of men. It's creeping,
stealthy, deathly hand reaching into
home here and home there TAX
ing a fond mother, an earnest,
needed, providing father, or jewel
of the family, one or more Of its
children. casting its horror and
shadows DER the tranquility and
happiness of home as nothing else
can do.
tuberculosis is just as deadly,
it's ravages are as much to be fear
ed, it is just as fatal and just as
rnyielding as it has ever been un-
less given proper treatment. The
way out has been provided. Through
the science of the medical and sur
gical treatment of tuberculosis the
death rate has constantly been re-
duced The open infective case
should be hospitalized for the gen
eral public good and those in need
of treatment must not be denied
new lease on life, if for no other
reason than that their disease may
spread even to ourselves and num-
Der any one Of us as it's latest vic
tim When one surveys the pa
tients afflicted with tuberculosis the
picture is most heart-rending, for
there we see it's toll in innocent
children, the flower of youth, the
mother or father, the government
official, the executive, the profess
sional man, the laborer, and the
business man cut down as with a
scythe because we have not stopped
the scattering of the seeds of tu-
berculosis tuberculosis will be
when every one realizes
it's seriousness and uses the known
means for it's prevention and treat
ment for the general public good. |
In tuberculosis disease, the ques-
ton ever before us is "Where did
he get it, and who did he give it
to-" It is not hereditary. z
Rocky Glen sanatorium is dedi- |
Gated to the world for that purpose
Of treatment, and upon you depends |
Its usefulness.
The treatment afforded patients |
for tuberculosis at Rocky Glen san
atorium has steadily advanced in |
The most careful, scientific manner,
and it has grown in public estima-
lion according to nationwide med
cal authorities, into most COM
manding position in reputation, the |
fruit of knowledge and skill int
,reating this disease, accomplish
ed through the study and expert
7nce of DR.. Mark. The entire staff
IS faithful and conscientiously de-
voted to the Improvement and re-
covery of each patient and gives un-
1uestionably the most meritorious
assistance and study to the details
Of treatment. The results in treat
ment compare in the most favorable
way with any like institution any,
where. 1t has selected our COM
munity for its noble, useful and
scientific work. We are all proud

Wash the gloves on the hands, rub

Remove the gloves by rolling them

and when all the particles of dirt

Roll the gloves in dry Turkish

FINANCIAL CONDITION OF
M. & VI. SCHOOLS

The following statement of funds
is given to acquaint the general
public with the financial condition
of the Nj. & M. schools under the
new law. Many of our patrons are
under the impression that all the
schools Of the state will be able to
run a normal year without any diff
ficulty since the retail sales tax is i'll
force. Unfortunately this is not the
ease because the Legislature has ap-
propriated no funds to take care of
the inequalities of the various
school districts. Under the present
law, all state money is distributed
on the basis of average daily at
tendance. Consequently the wealthy
districts will receive as much mon
ey as the poorer ones which Will not
receive SO much money as before,
when all the state aid was given to
the poorer districts.
The M. & NJ. schools belong to the
latter class, as the following table
will show. Money to operate the
schools from July I, 1884, to Jan.
1, 1895, has been provided from
funds under the old state aid set
up Money to pay for bonds and
interest is not included in the fol-
lowing, since this fund is provided

NO, THANKS

CHICAGO, Nov. 26.-Dudley Crafts Watson, extension lecturer of the Art Institute of Chicago, has received many invitations in his day, but hell never forget the recent one to spend the rest of his life in prison.
 He was invited to address inmates of the Minnesota state reformatory cn art.
 Before him were more than 1000 prisoners, many of them bitter, sul- len, hopeless. But he launched into his subject, talking to the men as though they had a connoiseur's ca pacity to understand.
 When he finished the audience rose and gave him an ovation. Then the Warden rushed up to him and exclaimed:
 Why, Watson, you should spend the rest of your life in the peniten- tiaries!'

TOKYO, Nov. 26.-The Japanese navy has introduced new, highly destructive type of fighting ship to the world.
 The 8,000-ton cruisers, Mogami and Mikuma, first of the swift and heav- fly gunned B-class cruisers in the building of which Japan and the United States are competing, have joined the empires sea forces.
 These vessels, each carrying fif- teen 6.1-inch rifles in five triple tur rets, represent naval architects ef- forts to obtain the last ounce oi power, efficiency and destruction within London naval treaty limits.
 Lesson in Sea Tragedy
 Their armament is the maximum permitted by both the treaty and the laws of naval design.
 Naval experts of other nations have expressed doubt that such heavy ar mament could be used with safety on such small displacement. The Ja- panese too had doubts after one ot their torpedo-boats, the Tomozuru carrying three 5-inch guns on only 527 tons, capsized in storm in March, 1884, with the loss of 10C officers and men.
 There was then thorough over- haul of the designs of cruisers and destroyers under construction. In the completed Mogami and her sisters the lesson of that tragedy has been needed.
 Year Ahead of America
 The addition of the Mogami and Mikuma to the fleet means Japan is more than year ahead of the United States in ships of this classi- fication. The American navy is building four cruisers of 10000 tons each, also to be armed with fifteen 6-inch guns.
 These are the Savannah, Nash vile, Brooklyn and Philadelphia, but the. first of them will not be com pleted until late in 1886. Before then the Mogami and Mikuma will be joined by two more of their class
 In the Mogami class the Japanese builders unlike the Americans failed

 These ships were kept to $500 tons each, because at that figure Japan could build six vessels within the l0O,450 tonnage allowed her at Lon
