' A million and' a quarter dollars is on deposit in school savings banks in the United States. This money is distributed among1 217,000 pupils, who thereby learn lessons of thrift for use in later life. Belgium has the honor of originating the school savings bank system. Prof. Laurent of Ghent, Belgium, in 1873, began the work among school children "for amelioration of poverty and the improvement of individual and national life." His work soon attracted the attention of the leaders of education in other countries. A native of Belgium, John Henry Thiry, put the school savings banks on a permanent footing in the United States. Mr. Thiry established banks in Long Island City, N. Y., and the New York schools, under Superintendent Maxwell, have been among the most successful advocates of the system. Mr. Thiry's efforts in behalf of school savings banks have been continued since his death, in 1911, by Mrs. Sara Louise Oberholt-

zer of Philadelphia, who has aided in the compilation of the bureau's bulletin on the subject. Several methods in vogue for collecting and banking the savings of the children are described. Usually the co-operation of a Well-established savings bank in the school community is first secured. ? Forms and blanks are provided by the banks; When the amount reaches one dollar, the child is given a bank book and becomes, through the school, a regular patron of the bank. When the deposit reaches $3 or $5 (as the banks elect) it draws interest at 8 or more per cent. Among the cities where the school savings banks have done notable work are Pittsburg, Pa., where over, $600,000 has been deposited since the introduction of the system. Chester, Pa., has now on deposit over $44,000. Toledo, O., established the system in 1911, and has deposited since then over $252,000, with $70,000 reported as still on deposit. Atlantic City, N. J., has on deposit over $33,000. Pupils in Grand Rapids, Mich., deposited $75,000 in the several years since establishing the bank and have drawn out in that time only $10,000. The federal authorities suggest that there can be a stimulating relation between the United States postal savings system and the school savings banks. The postal savings banks receive deposits from all over 10 years of age. "Children who have spent their pennies and nickels in can-, dy shops and moving picture shows until they are 10 years old," declares a government bulletin, "are not likely to hold their cards until they accumulate the $1, to be exchanged for a certificate of deposit. School savings banks are needed to prepare young people to profit by the postal savings banks."

BAVIS DISAGREES WITH KENNEPOHL ON BOND ISSUES

"Former board president, T3. A. Kennepohl keeps well Informed on public questions and he is more often right than wrong, but In opposing the proponed bond issue for public improvements because he favors the making ;f such improvements by general taxation, ho is certainly wrong, in my opinion," President Bavis of the board said today. Mr. Kennepohl urged that activities for the securing of needed public improvements be confined at this time to getting a bill through the legislature whereby special improvement funds could be created by municipalities and the entire cost of improvements be met out of the same- except in the case of streets. He would have abutting properties assessed what the ost would have been for putting down a graveled street, the rest of the expense being met out of the special improvement fund, raised by general taxation. "The plan of paying for all improvements by general taxation Is all wrong," Mr. Bavis said today. "Does Mr. Kennepohl realize that if such a system was to become effective now we would have to increase our tax rSte eighty cents if we attempted to make as many permanent improvements as have been provided in the past five years? "He justifies Issuing.bonds for the municipal plant, and I do myself, because the plant was to be a dividend producing investment for the city. He pays there will be no 'cash returns' from Improvements contemplated with the proposed new bond issue. Howdoes he reason that good streets and good sewers are not profitable investments? Don't they enhance the values of properties benefited, and in turn does not increased property values benefit the city as a whole?"

UNION STOCK YARDS AT CHICAGO CLOSED BY FEDERAL AGENTS

BY LEASED WIRE. CHICAGO, Jan. 26. The Union Stock Yards here were placed under federal quarantine today. Shipments of live stock from Chicago to any part of the United States were prohibited by the order. Discovery of several cases of the foot and mouth disease in a shipment of hogs from the Union Stock Yards to Philadelphia led to the embargo. The quarantine does not prohibit shipments of dressed meats. Live stock men at the yards professed to believe that there was no foot and mouth disease at the yards, and that the hogs found suffering from the plague in Philadelphia had contracted tne disease in shipment. Buyers in Chicago had orders for 28,000 hcgs to be shipped east when the quarantine was established. The federal quarantine here followed on the heels of an order issued by Governor Dunne in Springfield in which he placed fifteen counties of Illinois in absolute quarantine against the foot and mouth disease.

To Cure Catarrhal Deafness and Head Noises Persons suffering from catarrhal deafness and Lead noises will be glad to know that this distressing affliction can usually be successfully treated at home by an internal medicine that in many instances has effected a complete cure after other treatments have failed. Sufferers who could scarcely hear a watch tick tell how they have had their hearing restored to such an extent that the tick of a watch was plainly audible seven or eight inches away from either ear. Therefore, if you know of someone who is troubled with head noises or catarrhal deafness, cut out this formula and hand it to them and you will have been the means of saving some poor sufferer perhaps from total deafness. The prescription can be prepared at home and is made as follows: Secure from your druggist 1 oz. Parmint (Double Strength), about 75c worth. Take this home, and add to it U pint of hot water and 4 oz. of granulated sugar; stir until dissolved. Take one tablespoonful four times a day. Parmint is used in this way not only to reduce by tonic action the inflammation and swelling in the Eustachian Tubes, and thus to equalize the air pressure on the drum, but to correct any excess of secretions in the middle ear, and the results it gives are nearly always quick and effective. Every person who has catarrh 'in any form should give this recipe a trial and free themselves from this destructive disease. adv.

He was put on a freight train and when we reached him an hour ago his feet had dropped off, doubtless in the car, for we never saw them, and the last blood the . poor fellow had was pouring from his open veins.

"The attendant understands," tho doctor said; and to him, "What docs he say?" "He Is asking for his children," was the low reply. "Let me go!" I said to the doctor. The low moans seemed to call me back, but I walked steadfastly toward the door and down the corridor.
