CONCESSION TO PROFESSIONALS Attorney f.eneral Mill DellTer aa Address In n Co area aaday at Cherokee on Law Enforce ment. . (From a Staff Correspondent.) DE8 MOINES. April 24. (Special. )-Th superintendent of public' Instruction has Issued a circular to school officers and others which is being went out today. In forming them of the changes made In tho school laws of the state by the recent legls Isture. The most important change relates to the certification of teachers. Applicants who have taught successfully for at least thirty-six Week and whose examination entitles them to the first grade certificate, ahall receive the same for a term of three years from .the data thereof, and such certificate shall be renewable without ex amination, provided that, the applicants shall show by testimonial from their super intendents who have Immediate supervision of their professional study that at least one line of professional Inquiry has been successfully conducted during the life of the certificate. It being made the duty of the board to forward with-each certificate subject to renewal outline setting forth various lines of professional study. It is further provided that applicants whose ex amination entitle them to the second grade certificate only shall receive the same for two years with the privilege 6f renewal without further examination under the same rule which govern' the renewal of first-class certificates, provided the average and minimum standings of such certificate are not lower than the average and mini mum standings required for a first-class certificate. This change In the law by and under which certificates are more easily re newed is a distinct concession to the pro fessional teachers of the state. The law will be In effect after July 4 next. The law as amended will make all second grade certificates having the average and minimum standings of a first grade cer tificate renewable indefinitely. Second grade certificates Issued prior to July 4, 1909, being guaranteed one renewal by the law authorising their Issue will be renew'e.d once. The educational board of examiners will give no examination in psychology for the renewal of county certificates, but In lieu of such examination it will accept the certificate of a county or city super intendent under whose supervision the ap plicant for renewal ha pursued his pro fessional study. A new. edition of the regulations Is In the course or preparation and will be ready for distribution the latter. part of May. v Attorney General Byers goes tomorrow morning to Cherokee, where he delivers a church address on the matter of the en forcement of the law In Iowa. He has spoken at a great many meetings in the state and in churches and halls and is continuing the work of spreading new Ideas aa to the enforcement of the laws of the state. One day the ''coming' week he speaks at Woodward on'the same aub 1ect. ' 'i . " " " 1 Hospitals Are Well Menaced. Chairman John Cnwnle of the State Board of Control returned today from a trip with the other member of the 'board In the otithern part of the state." He reports that at the hospitals all Is quiet and that there Is a feeling that the legislature did a great wrong to the state In attempting to make a scandal out of the management of the Institutions. On his return hi found the usual number of reports from the hospitals of complaints and the summary discharge of persons for alleged misconduct. These reports have come with regularity for years and It Is found Impossible among the more than 1.800 employes to always find persons who measure up to the high stand ard set. At all the hospitals the patients deny any knowledge of cruelties or wrong doing. The new hospital for consumptives st Oakdale Is now filled to Its capacity and many are being turned away. Excel lent work la reported, as under the law patients are accepted rnly when there Is a chance for their cure. One Parole Sot Granted. The State Parole board has reported to the governor In opposition to an application for parole on the part of Mrs. Betsy SmltU of this city, who Is serving a life term f r the murder of her husband fifteen years ago. The claim for clemency for the womat, was that by a confession made by her daughter a number of years ago it op peered that Mrs. Smith haa nothing to do with the murder. Besides, she Is repre sented as a leader In Christian work at the reformatory. But the Parole beard refused to recommend a parole. l ..m There is no way of making Uiting friends like "Making Good"; and Dr. Pierce's medicines well exemplify this, and their friends, after more than two decades of popularity are numbered by the hundreds of thou sands. They have" made good" and they have not made drunkards. A good, honest square-deal medicine of known composition is Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It still enjoys an immense sale, while most of the preparations that have come into promi- "' nence in the earlier period of its popularity have "gone by the board" and arc never -more heard of. There must be some reason for this long-time popularity and that is to be found in its superior merits. Vhen once given a fair trial for weak stomach, or for liver and blood affections, its superior curative qualities are soon manifest; hence it. has survived and grown in popular favor, while scores of less meritorious articles have . suddenly flashed into favor for a brief period and then been as soon forgotten. Fqr a torpid liver with Its attendant indigestion, dyspepsia, -headache, perhaps dizziness, foul breath, nasty coated mon&uc, with bitter taste, loss of appetite, with distress after eating, " nervousness and debility, nothing Is as &ood as Dr, Pierce s ''I Golden Medical Discovery. ; t It's an honest, square-deal medicine with all its ingredients printed on bottle-wrapper no secret, no hocus-pocus humbug, therefore don't accept a substitute that the dealer may ' make a little bigger profit. Insist on your right to have what you call for. Don't buy Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription Expecting it to prove a " cure-all." It is only advised for woman's special ailment! It makes weak women strong, sick women will. Less adverm Used than some preparations sold for like purposes, Its ster lln& curative virtues still maintain Its position In the front ranks, where it stood over two decades a&o. As an invigorating tonic and strengthening nervine it is unequaled. It won't satisfy those who want " booze," for there is not a drop of alcohol in it. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, the r;W Little Liver Pills, although the first pill of their kind in the market, still lead, and when once tried are ever afterwards in favor. Easy to take as candy. hi hearing, are all vigorous. He never married. He has smoked for many years, but he never chewed tobacco. May bray Breaks Down and Weeps in Prison Cell Alleged Swindler Accused of Being Horseman "Jim" McCann De nies Seal with Dahlman. tFrom a Staff Correspondent.) DE8 MOINES. Ia., April 25.

McCann's life Insurance was never paid. Maybray Is being closely guarded. The English government is said to be be hind the cae, employing Mr. Gates. Rep resentatives say they have been shadow ing Maybray for more than a year, and they will get Barrlngton out at once. Maybray laughed at them until tonight.
