The present Third ward school build
ing is the oldest school building ia the
city. It was originally known as the
"yellow school house," being aa old
fashioned frame building. It was
later veneered with brick. The school
rooms are low and small, the timbers
are rotten, it is without aay modern
improvements, such as are now deemed
essential to health and comfort It is
a germ and disease breeder, and it
should not be used as a school house
another year. We believe oar people
will vote bonds for a reasonable, sum
to put up an up to date school house,

When the law permitting the free
distillation of denatured alcohol was
passed by congress, everyone thought
the era of high priced fuel for power
and heating purposes had passed, as
damaged fruits and "vegetables and
other waste of the farm could be used
in its manufacture.- But this new
product would largely take the. place
of coal oil and gasoline, products of
the Standard Oil company, and it was
soon apparently discovered there were
certain restrictions and red tape that
made it impossible, in the eyes of 'the
farmer, to erect a still without con
dieting with the revenue law. But
now Dr. Wiley of the department of
agriculture has come to the rescue and
is going to erect a still at the bureau
of chemistry at Washington aad oper
ate it himself for two or three months,
producing denatured alcohol from such
substances as are found on the farm
that otherwise go to' waste. All the
agricultural colleges of ' the different
states are invited to send, representa
tives to learn the art of making it, and
they in turn will teach nvtb the farm
ers of their own states The law was
passed expressly for tbe benefit of the
farmers, but so far it has been a fail
ure. Dr. Wiley proposes to see that
it is given a practical demonstration so
the process may become general. He
says denatured alcohol is an excellent
fuel and makes a fine light, and the
farmers should avail themselves of the
.. .a
tnew law permitting it to oe maae
without the imposition of a revenue
tax.

MnaUkSKaVS FORE FOOD LAW.
UaaWftt.
The Nebraska Legislature of 1907,
in fulfillment of the Republic State
Platform, apoa which it was elected,
enacted into .law & F. Number 64,
known as the Pare Food Law. This
act designates the Governor as Food.
Drag aad Dairy CommisBJoaor and
aataorisesaiatoapMiatadeaaiyaad
1 f the TUam IiiiibHibib
chemist, who are charged with thai
eafbroeateat of the law. Joseph W. '
Johasoa was selected as deputy by
Governor 8haldon aad E. L. Redfera
These gentlemen have
vigorously at work and have,
great progress ia the enfbrce-
it of the law.
The law was enacted for the purpose
of esUblishing honesty in the Food,
Dairy and Drug business in this State.
There had grown up a general dissat
isfaction, among the milk and cream
producers of the State from the feeling
that the creameries were not giving
the farmers a square deal ia measuring
the butter fat ia tbe cream sold. On
the other hand, the creameries and
milk consumers of this State claimed
that some of the-farmers were careless
and unsanitary in' the production of
their milk and cream and' that much
of the product marketed was unfit for
use and ought to be prohibited by law
from being sold. In answer to this
complaint and in order to establish'
integrity in measuring ,the butter fat
in the cream and to establish cleanli
ness in the production of milk and
cream, the Pure Food Law provides
for a system of inspection which is in
tendedto be a check against dishoaeety
in cream testing and against the mar
keting by farmers of unsanitary jilk
and cream. Under this Dairy depart
ment of the Pure Food Law there are
now four dairy inspectors traveling
constantly over the State, visiting
cream receiving stations, instructing
testers apd samplers f cream. These
dairy inspectors are experts in their
business, graduates of the Dairy de
partment of the State Agricultural
college, and are enthusiasts in their
line of work. It is a part of their
business to repart to the Food Com
missioner any cream tester or sampler
who is either incompetent or careless
or dishonest in his work. There are
about 1,700 receiving stations in the
State, of which about 140 are testing
stations.
The Pure Food law in its effort to
establish honesty in. foods has in mind
three things, adulteration, misrepre
sentation and short weight. Much of
the adulteration that was in foods a
few years ago has been stopped by the
National law, but theinventive mind
employed .by the manufacturing inter
ests is constantly busy discovering new
tricks of adulteration, and itis a part
of the Nebraska law to look out for
these new inventions and to head them
off by prosecution and publicity as
fast as they appear.
The old-fashioned system of hand
ling food stuffs in the grocery stores in
bulk was unsanitary, for it was not
easy for the groceryman to protect the
barreled stuff in his store from dust,
dirt and general uncleanliness. To
meet the demand of the consuming
public for cleaner food the package
system was invented. The manu
facturers saw that by putting op food
stuffs into packages they could appeal
to the public in behalf of their pack
age gbodson the ground that they were
more satisfactory .than goods handled
in bulk. As soon as the package
goods became popular, the factories
thought oat and began to practice the
short weight trick. They found they
could put up a package of oatmeal, for
example, that looked like two pounds
and that would pass off in the market
for two pounds, when in reality there
was'less than two pounds in the pack
age. This short weight scheme de
veloped rapidly, each factory compet
ing with its rival .to see which could
sell the smallest amount of food for tbe
money. To stop this short weight
cheat in Nebraska the branding re-1
quirement was put in the Pure Food
law, requiring food packages to be
labeled with the amount'of the con
tents. This feature of the law was
resisted strenuously by the representa
tives of the food packages before the
legislative committee, but the more
this provision was resisted by the fac
tories the more the legislature was de
termined in its.opposition to the short
weight trick, and the effect of this
! provision has already worked out a
practical reform in butter, cereals and
other food stuffs. This provision of
the law makes some inconvenience for
the retail grocer and has caused con
siderable friction between the Food
Commission aad the food factories, but
the system of honest food branding of
food packages in Nebraska is steadily
working its way into practical effect
throughout the State.
1 Among the other provisions of the
Pure Food law in its effort to establish
honest dealing and honest measure
ment, the clause which required the
liquor package to show the character
of the goods and the quantity delivered
for the money has been strenuously
resisted by she big liquor concerns all
over the country. NJlany of these large
concerns through their .attorneys have
made legal arguments before the Food
Commissioner to show that the law
was uareasonable aad impossible to
enforce, bat the saloon keepers of Ne
braska ander the stimulus of acoseca
tions are hurryiag into compliance
with the law. The Food Cnmmamioaar
takes the position that und-r the law

RIGHT AND LEFT HANDEDNESS.
Matter of .Physical Structure, Accord
Jng te an Authority.
George M. Gould of Philadelphia
says thatt mentality preceded and
created structure. It has bee shown
that the mechanisms that give the
man external validity, speech and
writing, are oae-sided. This one-sided
differentiation Is progressive through
out life. Right-handedness is partially
a matter bf'rigoteigbtednesa. In 97
per cent, of children the right eye is
the better-seeing eye. If one is right
handed the centers for writing and
speech must be on the left side and the
visual ceaters oa the same side.
Pathology follows any attempt to in:
terfere with right or left-handedaess.
Those persons who demand right
handedness of the left-haaded child
make him morbid and maladroit. The
author gives several very interesting
cases of the lifelong crippling of the
faculties and mechanism of writing
resulting from attempts to make a left
handed person learn to use the wrong
side of his brain for writing. Medical

The Modern Woman.
It was in a Lenox avenue subway
traia and a very' tired and cross
youngster of f6ar, who had evidently
spent the day shopping with his, moth1
er. was' keepiag the car in a turmoil
by a little pastime of huvow. He
sprawled all over hi mother's lap, at 1
the same time keeping up whimper
ing cry, "Mamma; mamma, mamma."
This west oa aatil an elderly man sit
ting next suddenly turned to the child
with: "Have you a .father?" The
youngster, startled out of his imagi
nary grief, stopped crying and nodded
his head. "Yes." "Well; for Heaven's
sake, call him and give your mother
a rest," The boy sat up like a ram
rod and never let out another whim

Smuggling Papular.
Smuggliag fs still a fairly flourishing
Industry In England. According to
the annual report, recently Issued, of
the commissioners of customs for the
year ending last March, "the number
of detected attempts to smuggle duti
able goods during the past year waa
the largest recorded since' 1895. The
quantities of tobacco, cigars and spir
its seized were less than in the pre
ceding year, but there was a consider
able Increase in the number of seiz
ures and of persons fined, says Home
Chat, No fewer than 3,104 persons
were fined for smuggling, and the pen
alties recovered amounted to $21,99.
The tobacco and cigars seized amount
ed to 11,222 pounds and the foreign
spirits to 82 gallons.
Whalebone Worth Million.
A century ago, when whalebone was
worth no more than ten cents a pound,
few vessels brought any home. From
1844 to the outbreak of the civil war
the output averaged about 2,80,90
pounds annually, the greatest for one
year being 5,892,309 pounds In 1853,
and the price Increased to oae dollar
a pound. Since I860 there has bee
steady decrease I the output. The
total amount of whalebone landed in
America In the course of the nine
teenth century exceeded 90,09,009
pounds, worth nt the present market
valuation about 8450,000,000, a sum
that would make the possessor one of
the richest men In the world. If not
the richest of all.

--- when we do guarantee an article
we must know it pretty well
what .it contains and how it is
made. Wthavc in mind the Rex
all line of remedies, particularly
Rexall Mucu-Tone, of which we
are selling large quantities at this
time of the year. Mucu-Tone is
one article that we can recommend
over our counter and know that
ninety-eight per cent of its pur
chasers are going to be benefited
and will return to .our store
pleased customers. Mucu-Tone
is a positive cure for internal
scrofula or what is coaunoaly
called Catarrh. It is without a
doubt tin? peer of all tonics for
any' one who is suffering from a
run-down' condition, can't work,
feels constantly tired or safferiag
from tbe more plainly described
symptoms- of Catarrh-tsuch as
stopping of the nose, cold in the
head or bad cough."
It must be remembered that Ca
tarrh is not confined to the nose '
and throat. It usually starts
there, but it. leads more often to
serious, trouble, particularly tbe
wasting of tissues, as in the case
of little Miss Dillon, of Albany.
iHere is a letter from her father:
"My little girl had catarrh so
badly that the disease had begun
to eat into tbe cartilage of the
nose. Snuffs and - instruments
tailed to do more than give tem
porary relief. I saw tbe adver
tisements of Rexall Mucu-Tone,
but I could not believe that any
thing taken in the stomach could
Cure theASore membranes of the
nose. However, I took advan
tage of your free trial offer and
my girl began taking your remedy
according to directions. I want
to say right here that Mucu-Tone
is certainly the greatest medical
discovery of the times, and to
thank you for the liberal offer
that first induced me to give it a
trial. Muco-Tone has cured rajr
daughter's catarrh completely!
The discharge has stopped alto
gether, and her breath is as sweet
as can be. Again thanking yow
Matt. Dillon, 24 N. Swan St,
"Albany, N. Y."
" We are selling a large trial bot
tle ?f Mucu-Tone for fifty cents
on the famous Rexall guarantee
of your money back if you are not
satisfied. "We promise that one
bottle wiH put flesh on your bones
and bring new vitality to your
'system.
