COUNTY TEACHERS TOTAL ABSTAINERS Prof. Williams Tells W. C. T. U. at the Institute Yesj terday Afternoon. r At the Wayne County W. C. T. U. institute yesterday afternoon, Prof. C. JO. Williams, superintendent of the I county schools, speaking on the subject of the importance of teaching lacientiflc temperance in the public 'schools, stated that there was not a teacher in the public schools outside :of the city of Richmond, who drank iliquor or who used tobacco in any form. "We wish we could say that for the city schools," remarked some woman in the audience and a general laugh followed her sally. Prof. Williams advocated a course 1n the public schools which would instruct the children In the mental, moral and pflyslcal effects of alcohol. He said that it was most important to make a girl thoroughly realize the results of the use of alcohol. "In later j-ears when the girl marries and becomes a mother, she, not the father, lias charge of the moral education of the children. She will teach her little ones to abstain from the use of liquor," said the speaker. He also stat ed that the records of the Wayne coun ty circuit court showed that the majority of all homicides in this county "resulted directly or indirectly from al cohol. MIbs Mary Woodward, of Fountain City, in an address before the institute yesterday afternoon stated that the suffrage leaders throughout the country could well follow the example of the W. C. T. U. in their campaign for the ballot. She called attention to the fact that the W. C. T.U. nearly always accomplished what it went after, citing as evidence the number of laws on the statute books placed there through the efforts of the temperance organization. She also stated that the W. C. T.U. ha d always advocated equal suffrage and had for years led In the campaign for the ballot. Mrs. Retta Jones of Alexandria, Indiana, leader of the institute, spoke on the importance of safeguarding the morals .of the children. "There must be only one standard of purity," she said. "Never let a boy go to a place where girl cannot go." Mrs. Oxer pf this city, for several years, a missionary in India, and who recently returned to this county, was an interested spectator at the institute. Last evening the institute was closed with an interesting program, featured by an address of Miss Rebecca Krikorian, an Armenian, now doing missionary work In this country. She told of the brutalities practiced on her .people by the Turks. Its Suggestion. i "When I asked our new girl If she eould do anything in the line of putting nap vegetables she replied, I can can.'

"I have a daughter 13 years old who has always been very healthy until recently when she complained of dizziness and cramps every month, so bad that I would have to keep her home from school and put her to bed to get relief. "After giving her only two bottles of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound she is now enjoying the best of health. I cannot praise your Compound too highly.

Herpicide 80LVES THE PROBLEM OF GOOD HAIR After Prof. Sabouraud confirmed the germ origin of dandruff, science was confronted by a new problem which was not solved until the discovery of Newbro's Herpicide. Herpicide being the first successful preparation compounded in harmony with this new theory, becomes the original remedy to kill the dandruff germ. Since then, numerous preparations said to be "Just as good' as Herpicide have been thrown upon the market; others have adopted Herpicide claims, and without making any change in their remedies, but none have ever reached the same degree of popularity. Everywhere this remedy is recognized as the one genuine dandruff germ destroyer. As a result Herpicide has more satisfied users than all other iair preparations combined. Being the original remedy, users expect more astonishing results from Herpicide than they would look for from any other preparation and they usually get them. So wonderful has been the success of this germicide that it is now recognized as the standard hair remedy of the world. Herpicide kills the dandruff germ, checks falling hair. It stops itching of the scalp almost instantly. For sale at drug stores. One dollar 6ize bottles are guaranteed. Applications obtainable at the good barber shops. Insist on having real Herpicide.

Field, the favorite minstrel man, will receive a great ovation upon his annual appearance here. 'So favorable are the reports of this year's production that a packed house is predicted for the performance. The Greater Minstrels, with Field at their head, appear at the Gennett theater on May 2. Bert Swor, John Healey, Gov. Bowen, Harry Shunk and Nick Glynn are the comedians. Swor's inimitable work is a revelation In minstrelsy. No min strel in years has been able to reach the perfection in dialect, dancing and singing that seem to come so easy to Swor. Healey Shunk, Bowen and Glynn . are old members of the Field Company. The electrical scenic effects and stage accessories and embellishments are of the high class as in all Field productions, though the veteran has far surpassed his other productions in those features. The singing is truly beautiful In both the choral and solo lines. In this, his twenty-sixth tour of the country, Al. G. Field has what is said by all critics to be the best production of his long career on the minstrel stage. It has been called his masterpiece and the perfection of the art of minstrelsy. At The Murray. Pearl Bros, and Burns, who featare the bill at the Murray this week have scored one of the laughing hits of the season. They present a clever little comedy skit that is full of witty dialogue and amusing situations and their travesty on Grand Opera with airs from "Pagllacci" is a tremendous hit. Burlesque ventriloquism is introduced in the act, and at the finish of their offering, the boys are obliged to respond with repeated encores. In the dainty Miss Otto, the piano girl, born, bred and reared to womanhood in a music school, the audience finds a fitting garnish for any bill, elevating the entire program of a standard seldom reached outside the metropolis. The Laurent Trio, acrobats of wonderful strength and Sana and Sans, the fashion plate girls, in a neat singing act, incidentally bringing in a speech of the topic of the day "Woman Suffrage" conclude the performance which has been drawing capacity houses during the week, p. m. on "My little son had a very severe cold.

" GOT OUT OF HIS LINE And Ho F:t That tho Punishment Fitted tho Crime. Tears ago Irvin S- Cobb, the humorous writer, was a correspondent for various out of town papers while working in raducah, Ky. Not a great deal of genuine news for out of town consumption is manufactured at Paducah. As Mr. Cobb needed the money there was a period during which It appeared that Paducah bad become the news center of the middle west. Not a day passed that some astounding story was not printed under a raducah date. "We stood for them." said the former telegraph editor of a St. Louis paper, "because they were so good, even though we knew they were fakes. But one day the boss called me In. 'Who is this man Cobb at Paducah?" he asked. "When I had satisfied his thirst for knowledge he told, me to fire Cobb. I know all the stories he has written are fakes.' said he. 'but I can't stand for that one he sent us yesterday. I like some sanity even in a fake story. It must sound as though It might possibly under certain conditions be partly true.' "So," said the ex-telegraph editor, "I fired Cobb. I thought he would get angry over this, but be didn't. He seemed chastened in spirit, though. He wrote me a letter in which he made no protest or complaint about getting flred. It served me right for getting out of my line.' said he. 'That was the only story I ever sent you that was wholly true.' " Cincinnati Times-Star.

Dignifying Dad. The wife of a wealthy business man of Chicago was the daughter of a policeman. As they grew rich both she and her husband concealed the fact as much as possible for the sake of their social prestige. At a luncheon several society women of high position had been talking about their families. "What was youf father's business, Mrs. D.?" was finally asked of the business man's wife. Mrs. D. was "not disturbed. "My father was In the copper business," she said, with cool emphasis. Won His Appointments. When Hoke Smith was secretary of the interior he was especially generous to Georgians in the matter of de partment clerkships. It was generally conceded that around the patent, pension and land offices one could not throw a stick without hitting a Georgian. Senator Voorhees of Indiana had been trying to place one or two Hoosier constituents, but had failed. One day the senator came along whistling "Marching Through Georgia" and keeping step to the tune. "What are you doing that for?" asked Hoke Smith. "Just can't help it," said Senator Voorhees. "It is just like marching through Georgia to come through youT Jepartment." lie got the appointments that day. Stung! The police of a certain uptown precinct in New York have for a long time been trying to get the goods on the keeper of a certain little restaurant. Last Sunday th plain clothes man assigned to the Job gave up in despair. "I can't get through the door," he said to a couple of friends. "He knows me. But you take this dollar and go in and buy drinks and then come out and tell me, and I'll make the pinch." "Fine, Bob," said the friends. "Fine. Give us the money." And they went into the restaurant. They were there for an unconscionably 7 "DID TO0 GET THX DRINKS? " long time. By and by they came out, smoking good cigars and obviously pleased with themselves. The detective ran toward them. "Did you get the drinks, boys?" "Sure. Bob." said they. "What did you get beer, wine or whisky? Hurry, so's I can make the pinch." "Well, you see, Bob," they explained apologetically, "we're both on the water wagon, and so we took ginger ale and cigars." New York Cor. Cincinnati Times-Star.

ARE YOU FAT?

Yon know you can not stay fat. don't you? That is, you can not be fat and be in style. The day when a fat woman was tolerated is passed. Nowadays all women must be in proportion or be ridiculous. This does not mean you should be skinny, however. You should not get below the hard flesh line. All you ought to lose is the bulky fat. That done you will find yourself to be a well-formed and therefore handsome woman. Now, how can this be done? By exercising and dieting? Yes, and no. These two means will bring some results, but not easily nor soon. One is very hard' work; the other is torture. Besides, neither can be depended on to cause a uniform reduction. They may take off a fleshy shoulder, for example, and leave the double chin untouched. What you need, you see, is something pleasant to take that without injury to your health will take the fat off uniformly and quickly, say at the rate of a pound a day or so, until It Is all gone where you want it to go. For this purpose nothing is less expensive, safer or simpler than Marmola Prescription Tablets. Inexpensive because one large case, costing 73 cents only, will produce results; safe because they cause no wrinkles or stomach trouble, but rather Improve the health and complexion, if anything; and simple, because they do all the work without asking thought or effort on the part of the taker. In short, they are the ANSWER If you are fat and wish to be thinner. If your druggist is of the better kind he will have them. If not, write the licensees, The Marmola Company, 895 Farmer Bldg., Detroit, Mich. Musical Conductors. It Is a significant fact that most of the great conductors have spent their apprentice years in mastering some soto instrument-which they have used as a stepping stone to the broader and ultimate work of conducting an orchestra. Arthur Nikiscb was at the beginning of his career a violinist in the royal orchestra at Vienna; Richard Strauss made his formal debut not only as leader of the Melninger orchestra, but as a pianist also, playing n concerto by Mozart. Felix Weingartner, Dr. Muck, Emil Paur, Rothweil and Oberhoffer were first pianists of distinction before becoming conductors. This list could also be carried back to Hans von Bulow, the prince of pianists and conductors, and to Felix Mendelssohn, who inaugurated the famous Gewandhans concerts. Spoiled the Sport. A gentleman from London was Invited to go for "a day's snipe shooting." in the country. The invitation was accepted, and host and guest shouldered guns and sallied forth In quest of game. After a time a solitary snipe rose and promptly fell to the visitor' first barrel. The host's face fell also. ' "We may as well return." he remarked gloomily, "for that was the only snipe In the neighborhood." The bird bad afforded excellent sport to all his friends for six weeks. London Answers.

JUNIOR LEAGUES FORMED WEDNESDAY IN THE "CLEANING UP" DAY PROJECT

BY MRS. F. W. STEPHENS. The success of the effort to form Junior leagues in the schools yesterday afternoon was splendid. League upon league of leagues, one In every school building and two in some, with the parochial schools not heard from. The children responded so readily that all the pledge cards were exhausted and there were not half enough songs. The enthusiasm was unbounded, so sincere and spontaneous that it was a very delight to plan for avenues in which they might expend their ener gies. It remains for their superiors In years to recognize their work, to enter with hearty good will into that which so greatly interests the children. The pledges appearing below were gratuitously printed by the Garfield pupils, and they will be doubling the number if the need is met. The Nicholson Printing Co. proved their sym pathy with the cause by kindly donat ing a thousand copies of the League song. The suggestions for the members and the rules governing prizes will be read with interest, also the pledge and song, Mrs. F. W. Stephens. Chairman Civic. Committee.
