Schoof Tax.
In answer to a letter from the De
partment of Public Instruction, the
Attorney-General's Department rules
that school boards have authority to j
assess and levy taxes for school pur- I
poses upon real eitate and personal :
property in the manner heretofore
provided, and to assess an occupation
or per capita tax of §1 upon every
male inhabitant of the age of 21 years
and upwards. This per capita tax is
in lieu of the occupation tax levied
under the old law, and the amount
thereof cannot be exceeded in any case
110 matter at what sum the occupation,
trade or profession may have beerj
valued by the assessor for State and
county purposes.
That's the Stuff.
Wc do not quite understand the aar
nouncement that the Kmperor William is
| desirous of "an amicable statement ol
I American intentions in the Philippines."
I What right h»s he to ask or expect such
I a statement ? The Philippines do
! not belong to Germany or to him.
There is a war on now betweea two
I countries, the Lnited States and Spain.
| The victor in that war will dispose of the
I Philippine Islands independently of any
| diird party. What the disposition is to
| be remains to be determined, but the
; right to dispose of them will be asserted
when they have been conquered, even if
i an other war is necessary.
The world will be taught this time
1 that this country is not to be trifled with
1 by any nation on tho globe. —Philadcl

An exchange says: "Our attention
has been called to the careless disre
spect shown to the flag by so many
people who hang it from their win
dows or above their houses and leave
it their night and day regardless of
the weather." It says,"on shipboard
and military posts where the flag has a
real significance it is raised at sunrise
' and lowered at sunset It is never
I left out in the storm. Thus the starry
! banner is kept clean and bright and is
; always treated with respect. It should
> receive the same treatment from every
I person." There is a good point in
this and hence we publish it.
Free Pills.
Send your address to H. E. Bucklen
& Co., Chicago, and get a free sample
box of Dr. King's New Life Pills. A
trial will convince you of their merits.
These pills are easy in action and are
particularly effective in the cure of Con
stipation and Sick Headache. For Ma
laria and Liver troubles they have been
proved invaluable. They are guaran
teed to be perfectly free from every
deleterious substance and to be purely
vegetable. They do not weaken by
their action, but by giving tone to the
stomach and bowels greatly invigorate
the system. Regular size 25c. per box.

Mother's Friend
is the best help you can use at this time.
It is a liniment, and when regularly ap
plied several months before l>aby comes,
it makes the advent easy and nearly pain
less. It relieves and prevents "morning
sickness," relaxes the overstrained mus
cles, relieves the distended feeling, short
ens labor, makes recovery rapid and cer

Mother's Friend is good for only one
purpose, viz.: to relieve motherhood of
danger and pain.
