Mrs. Root Attributes Her Vigor, Health and Staying Powers to Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey, Which She Has Taken for Years. In a recent interview Mrs. Hoot said: "I seldom take medicine, but two year:: ago at my home in Cleveland I felt not very strong, no bought one bottle of Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey. I was benefited by It. 1 am 80 years old, and won the championship In the great walk ing contest for aged people in Cleveland. I came out winne r of 28 contestants over 75 years of age (14 women and 14 men). I beat the world's record, and now hold the championship for the United States and Europe. I walked 2>/£ miles in 26 minutes, and was not at all tired; could have walked It right over again. One paper gave the account, as two miles In 26 minutes; all the other papers were right. When I reached the end, not an other w'alker was any where near me, and the enthusiasm was great. 1 have had an Immense mall ever since from professors In colleges and prominent men all over, wishing to know how I lived, what my diet was, what caused this wonderful strength and endurance at 78 years of age. I take, good care of my health, have camped out every summer for the past 25 years, live well, and use as my only medicine Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey. I have known during the past two years several wonderful euros from Duffy’s Malt Whiskey. It Is a remorkable medicine for Rheumatism and Stomach Trouble. Two Instances have come to my notice of permanent cures. My wonderful health and ability to walk long distances 1 attribute to using it Is a medicine."

Very Interesting Report on Industrial Work in Schools Miss Elizabeth Holt, Director of the Work, Tells of Its Progress and Makes Recommendations The report of Miss Elizabeth G. j Holt, the director of the Industrial Work in the Public Schools of Rich mond County, shows that a great amount, of work has been done by the different classes during the past year. The report of Miss Holt will be in-1 corporated in the report of Supt. Law- j ton B. Evans, in the annual of the ! Board of Education. Seven hundred children are in the department. Miss Holt strongly recommends that physical training for both girls and boys be introduced Into the school*. She recommends that gar-1 •dotting bo added to the Industrial do- j partment. The report tells at length of the work done by the sewing, cooking, handicraft and shop work done In the department. The report In part. Is as folews: A great step forward has heen marie this year In the Industrial De partment and if we keep to the pace that has been set Augusta will soon easily iead In a line of work that Is Interesting the foremost eduactors of the couutry, reorganizing all educa-, tion to fit tho practical needs of the time. THREE HUNDRED AT MILLEDGE SCHOOL. The enrollment in the Industrial Work of the John Milledge School Is about, throe hundred and fifty, forty of whom come from the Woodl4wn School. The boys and girls from the fourth through the eighth grade are Included while two classes are made up of children over age In the lower glades. The enrollnien at the Tubman High School is ninety-seven, including the sophomores, juniors and seniors, that at the Houghton seventy-nine, includ ing the girls of the sixth .seventh and eighth grades; at the Central eighty-seven. Including the girls of the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth grades, and at the Davidson sixty three, including the girls of the sixth, .seventh and eighth grades. Thus, the totai enrollment in the Industrial Work is between six and seven hun dred. In the John Milledge school the subjects of instruction are as follows: Domestic Science, including cook ing, cleaning, laundry work and household management.; Domestic Art, Including plain hand sawing, ma chine work, and decorative sewing; Manual Arts, including cardboard construction, kraife work, Venetian Iron work, copper work, stencilling, basketry and designing. In the Tub man High School the sophomores have a course In original design ap plied to various nrttcles of use, and the juniors and seniors are taught Domestic Science. During the spring months the seniors will come to the i John Milledge School for lessons in sewing and embroidery. The pupils In the Houghton, Central and David son Schools receive Instruction In Domestic Science and hand sewing and embroidery. THE COOKING CLASSES. In the cooking classes ln all tha schools bread making of all kinds is stressed and mrtnv of the children have attained quite a degree of pro ficiency. In cookery as ts the case In every line of work, skill Is the re sult of practice and the homes can do much to forward the progress of this department by encouraging the children to make again the dishes learned at school. The course throughout the grndes also Includes lessons on meats, vegetables, sonps, desserts, cakes, invalid diet, and all other forms of food preparations that are apt to be of value to the pupils. The simple chemistry and physics of foods and their preparation and their physiological values are developed In connection with the pratlcal lessons. The hygiene of cleanliness Is Im pressed in connection with every thing Lessons of order and system In household management, of the In telligent planning of dietaries, and of the value of dainty table arrange ment and decoration are taught both through practice and discussion. The high aim of the work Is to develop independence, sound pfidgment, pru dence, and good taste In the home makers of the future, and to Impress upon their minds the dignity and re sponsibility of the work that will be j theirs. 111 the sewing classes the idea Is to start with simple hand stitches and to progress through the finer handwork and machine work. The pupils are reouired to do their own cutting, and are encouraged to show all possible originality lft design. At tention Is paid to the hygiene of clothing nnd to economire and good taste In the selection jind use of ma terials The child’s outlook Is broad ened by Information upon the his torical development and commercial relationship of certain features of the work. The usual plan Is to start with class Instruction and then to give such Individual attention as the ease mav demand and the time al low Interest Is always Inspired by Veil made models. The lessons plans are carefully prepared, especial attn tlon ebln* paid to the teachers’ and pupils’ alms that they may harmon ise. HANDICRAFT CLASSES. In the handicraft classes accuracy of measurement, skill and neatness In construction and originality In de jslgn are encouruget. Thoroughness and originality are the main points emphasized In con junction with every feature of the work and the results speak for them , selves. In the course of time the work for ithe boys will be introduced Into all ithe schoois and will be extended to shop work which affords the brosdest opportunity for all-round develop- i ment. To be most efficiently taught ] It should be under the direction of a well-trained man. The physical de velopment and the Training of the mind and hand to accuracy that will come to the boy through such work [will stand him in good stead what ' ever his vocation may be. Physical training is another feature 'that should be introduced for both boys and girls. It Is essential that ; this work should be In the hanljs of a trained director as there Is a dan ger of too great physical strain and j Incorrect movements. Gardening should be more generally i Introduced. If rightly projected it ; would probably be the most valuable feature of the work involving and leading up to much that is of Impor tance in the other phases. In addi tion to the physical and intellectual training (resulting from such work, its ethical value gives it a high place in the curriculum. If the teacher does not know much about it she can get out and learn with the children, for here “Nature” is the great teacher. From the very beginning the Inter est of the children in every phase of the work has been all-absorbing, and while there can be no doubt that the cooking lessons are attractive since the pupils help to consume the prod uct, and the sewing because it is on I something to be actually used, still I under it all, even in their young minds, there seems to be a sub-con sciousness of its practical value for the future. Many have already had occasion to put their training to the test in the homes. INFLUENCE OF INDUSTRIAL WORK. The influence of tho Industrial Work upon the rest of the curriculum wherever advantage has been taken of the opportunity to effect a natural correlation, has been helpful to the pupils, grade teachers and industrial teachers alike. Arithmetic, composi tion, etc., that are based upon read ties are worth while and lasting in their impressions. CJrand 'juries have inspected the work and commended it in their re ports for four years past; prominent educators have given it their high est endorsement; but the public ap proval that counts for most Is that of the parent who has the opportun ity to see its real value tested. If a mass meeting of all those parents whose children have received the training were held there Is no doubt that the vote for systematic indus trial instruction In the schools would be unanimous. Throughout the world the most thoughtful, practical students of the educational needs of the time are ad vocating the industrial feature not only for its practical value to the pu pil, but for its Influence in vitalizing the cut and dried course of study and . in socializing the school as a whole Skin and Blood Diseases Banished The Blood Quickly Purified, and the Skin Healed by Stuart’s Calcium Wafers. The importance of the blood to the physical system is apparent to every one. It contains in itself all the ele ments necessary for the nourishment and reconstruction of the tissues of the body, these elements being ab sorbed from the food in the stomach. The blood is the greatest circulat lng medium in existence. It is the channel of transportation in the body, not only of nutritive supplies to the tissues, but also of the consumed and worthless materials that have fulfilled their purpose, and are to be ejected from the body. It frequently happens that the blood becomes charged with impurities ab sorbed from the stomach, intestines and kidneys, and which, it is is unable to eliminate through the usual chan nels, it sends out through the pores of the skin in the form of pimples, blackheads, and various skin erup tions. The skin is composed of two lay ers, known as the scarf-skin, or cu ticle, and the true skin, or derma. The number of pores in the skin is es timated to be 2,800 to the square inch, or a total of about 7,000,000 in the entire system, and if put in one con tinuous tube, would measure twenty eight miles in length. About one-fifth of the impurities of the body are elim inated through these pores. If the scarf-skin, which Is constant ly being thrown off, should for any reason collect and block up the pores, skin diseases, such as furnucles or boils, carbuncles, acne, lichen, etc., are certain to occur. Stuart's Calcium Wafers Is the ideal remedy for keeping the blood free from Impurities, and the skin devoid of eruptions, no matter what the cause may be. as the wafers cleanse the entire svstem, and act generally as well as locally. The principal in gredient of this remedy is calcium sulphide, which is a standard U. S. P. preparation, and its powerfully-alter ative. blood-purifying and skin-heal ing properties are well-known to all physicians and druggists. Stuart’s Calcium Wafers act mildly .upon the liver, kidneys, aud intestines, and powerfully upon the blood, and skin, eliminating impurities of every nature, healing all skin diseases, and building up rich, red blood and ren dering the complexion rosy and healthy. Obtain a box of this powerful rem edv from your druggist, if you are suffering from such disease as pim ples. blackheads, boils, carbuncles, tetter, herpes, erythema, urticaria roseola, nettle rash, hives, ringworm, etc., and you will be surprised a: tha alacrity with which the system is rid of these troubles.

DOCTORS KICK ON PRIEST'S ACTIONS Say That He Has Practiced Medicine Three Years and Have Complained To the Police Commission. PARIS. —Because he tried to make a living as a physician Abbe Bour cier, of Cergy, is at present in seri ous trouble. The police commissary of Pontoise visited his presbytery and seized a large quantity of medi caments, chemist's products, and surgical appliances. The priest is charged with practising medicine il legally. The action against him has been taken at the instigation of the doctors practising in the canton of Pontoise and of several chemists. The priest is alleged to have acted as a doctor for three years, examin ing all those sick people who applied to him, writing out prescriptions, and preparing himself the remedies which he indicated. v It does not appear, however, that the priest demanded payment for his medical services. But it is hinted that he brought to the notice of his patients the penurious condition of his parish budget since the Separa tion Law came into force, and that when he received money he looked upon it as an offering, devoted to oth er needs than his own. On several occasions the doctors had complained to the priest, and had even demanded the intervention of the Bishop of Versailles. But in vain. Forty of the priest’s patients have given evidence as to his having acted as a doctor. The priest’s ex planation to the police commissary is that he had simply exercised Chris tian protection by relieving certain human sufferings.
