The report of the colleve board points out the growing- regard f small college work by the educational world at approving ttrs (uld)nf principle of the board during the Quarter of a century of Its existence. During ths last year $600,000 were put Into new buildings, tl. 800.000 of endowment wag socured and l,6ff0.00D offored Presbyterian colleges on condition of their raising leas than twice as much more. Under the head of "Mew Needs" the reports point out the necessity for new colleges In many states and territories besides Cuba, Porto 'Rico and Alaska. Tt Is shown that the Prcs byterlan church In all Its branches has but one-tblrd as many colleges as the Baptists, ' one-half as many teachers as the Meth odists, less than one-half as many pupils and one-halt the property of the Congre gational Institutions. "But," says the re port, ' the Presbyterian church It facing the situation and will remedy It." The receipts from churches and Individuals passing through the board's treasury showed during the year an encouraging advance. The board Indicates the need of largely Increased revenues: O) To help Insuf ficiently endowed Institutions with their current expenses, especially while they are working to secure Increased endowment; (2) for Its own expenses, largely for publi cation and travel, and (?) for endowment for Individual collegea The board atsndt for Bible teaching for 'very student, distinctly evangelistic train ing and constant discipline to send out pupils as educated Christian worker. The results of this work are: Colleges reporting 1,40 male collegiate students have KM men, 11 per cent, committed to the ministry or foreign mission work, and evangelistic work organised In almost every Institu tion during the year resulted In 307 re ported conversions.

We recommend that the article of agreement be adopted. 6. A the Preibylerlan church In the United State will be entitled to twelve representatives In the council, we recom mend that the representatives be divided into three classes of four members each, to consist of two ministers and two ruling elders. 1 1 W recommend thst a moderator ap point a committee of five, who shall nom inate and report to thla general assembly the names of twelve persons qualified' to J,ry representatives from this church, dividing the same Into classes as provided for In this report. The minority report will take a directly opposite position, holding that the adoption of the articles of agreement would be un constitutional.

At the meeting of the Board of Educa tion Monday night David Cole reported on the scholarships to be based on the Ed ward Rose water bequest as follows: Tour commutes on the Kdward Rose water scholarships recommends that Ar mour Institute of Chicago and the Caae School of Applied Science of Cleveland, O., be dealgnated as the two schools where pupils of the Omaha High school winning the sold scholarships shall attend. This recommendation Is based on the results of a canvass made by Mr. Victor Roeewater and the superintendent of Instruction of the lesdlng technical schools of the coun try on the question of the willingness of such schools to grant free tuition to the pupils winning this scholarship. Of all the schools written the Armour Institute and the Case School of Applied Science were the only two whose authorities felt they could set aside their established rule and grant the request for free tuition. In view of the fact that these two schools take rank with the best of their kind In America and that the free tuition which they grant increasea the value of the schol arship from IT20 to (AGO, the committee thought It ought to make this reoommenda tlon at this time. Th report was signed by all members of the committee. Report Is Adopted. Speaking for the committee. Superintend ent Davidson said that with th offer of free tuition It might be possible to send two young men In place of one to these schools, one to each. He announced that of the present graduating class at the high school at least two, If not five or six, were qualified for the scholarship; that correspondence showed that many other Institutes would have granted free tuition had they not been too strictly bound by regulation. He suggested that rules to govern the scholarship should be formu lated to be reported at the next meeting. The report was unanimously adopted. Ths Judiciary committee reported In favor of drawing an order on th general fund for 1150 as Inheritance tax on the Edward Roeewater bequest. The report of the buildings and property committee on the bids presented for the Vinton school waa presented. It recom mended the letting of the contract, Robert Dempttr, chairman of the committee, explained that the bids were several thou sand dollars In excess of the money on hand; If tt were to be built without Issuing bonds it could not be paid for In two years. Mr. McCague desired to pausfe In the matter. He raid that under the bids the total cost of the building would be about $84,000; there seemed to be comsotltlon In the bids and the board must assume that the general contract would be fulfilled for about 159,000. He asserted that bids for plumbing and heating Indloated that the time had arrived when heating and light ing would coat 26 per cent of the total cost of the building. He did not desire to criticise local bidders, at they are con trolled by manufacturers, and he asserted that the subject deserved Investigation. The board, according to the speaker, era barked on the Vinton school project some what unwillingly, even when the coat wag to be about WG.000, and now that 185,000 1 to be spent he desired a halt. J. C. Lindsay asserted that, compared with the Monmouth Park building, the bids for plumbing and heating were not excessive. Member Detwelr questioned the legal ity of the action of the board In propos ing to spend to large a sum of money In the manner contemplated. He protected against excessive charges for heating and plumbing. David Cole cited a fourUen-roonv build ing at Minneapolis built at a complete cost of 148,671, and an elghteen-room building at Kansas City at a cost of S83,372. President Rice declared the cost of mod ern heating and ventilating systems wsr fully repaid In better hsalth of teachers and pupl e. Contract Ordered Let.

It Is ex- No skin disease can eiist without Instances that cause is either a humor in the blood or an excess of fiery acids in this vital fluid. These humors and acids get into the blood, generally because of an inactive and sluggish condition of those members whose duty it is to collect ana carry on the waste ana muse of the body. This unhealthy matter is left in the system to sour and ferment, and 6oon the circulation becomes charged with the acid poison. The blood, in its effort to' rid itself of this foreign matter, beginsjto throw off the humors and acids through the pores rnd glands of the skin. These coming in contact with the delicate tissues and fibers with which the skin is so abundantly supplied produces irritation and inflammation on the surface, and Eczema, Acne, Tetter, Psoriasis, Salt Rheum, or some other troublesome and disfiguring skin disease is the result. External applications, while they soothe the itching, and are beneficial in keeping the skin clean, can never cure skin affections, because they do not veach the blood where the real trouble is located, i A thorough cleansing of the blood is the only permanent cure for 6kin diseases. S. S. S., the greatest of all blood purifiers, is the best treatment. It cures by neutralizing the acids and removing the humors from th circulation so that the skin, instead of being irritated and diseased by the exuding acrid matter, is nourished and 3oothed by a cooling, healthy stream of blood. S. S. S. goes down to the very bottom of the trouble, removes the foreign matter and thereby permanently cures every form of skin trouble. Do not expect to cure a blood disease with local applications alone, but begin the use of S. S. S., and when you have removed the cause the skin will be free from disease.
