SCHOOLS ERE INDORSED
I Declares Mililaty Training in
Colleges Should ba Continued
Washington, Dec 10.—The
annual report of the inspector
general of (he armv, made pub
lic tonight, is somewhat unique,
the exigencies of the war having
scattered tue ofii rs of the bu
reau from their regular duties
to the comm mil of troops in the
field an 1 reduced the number of
insp .ctions consider <bly.
nt the sauke time the war
brought out results in the
branch, of the service devoted to
military instructions in civic
scho ds and colleges and make
the basis for some interesting
reeommendafions in this line.
I
Ihe inspector general pays a
marked compliment to the.per
sonnel of his department, a*
well as to the other branches of
the government, under whose
direction the war was success
ful! v prosecuted, with the fol
lowing compliment to the presi
dent :
“The indomit ibis energy,
pt rpetual military provision,the
car and pain-t 'king that were
demonsirat d from »ho White
House down to the loading
wharf, through every branch
and desk of the war department
to the final exit oi‘ an organized
command of every arm and
corps of the service upon foreign
soil deserve recognition ”
He ern; hasiz’s strongly the
netd of periodical military ma
nocuver. and exp- i imental snob
ilizatnm to insure the health
and safety of the troops in actu
al service. If this is omitted, he
declares, the movt lavish expen
diture, v ith the best intentions
and most untiring energy as a
substitute for practical good, is
but a poor makeshift.
One of the most interesting
fertures of the report is that up
on military colleges. Except for
the interruption of military in
struction by the withdrawal of
regular ; rmy instructors during
the war, 15,000 students are be
ing annually traim d in practical
and theoretical military, service

the peculiar wt
t and diseases of their deli- \\
cate, feminine structure.
Nothing less than unb< arable torment
would induce sensitive-minded women to
• submit to the intolerable methods of the
average doctor in dealing with diseases of
this nature.
That there is “a better way ” than these
detestable "examinations” and “local ap.
plication-'” is a truth which some women
have vet to learn, although thousands are
already rejoicing in the knowledge. They
have found in Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Pre
-j scription the one unfailing remedy which
1 heals feminine weaknesses at their very
1 source. This marvelous “ Prescription ”
restores absolute health to the internal
* organism; stops weakening drains and ul
j e-rated conditions gives elastic strength
t<f the supporting ligaments, vitality to the
nerve centers, and complete womanly vigor
to the entire constitution.
It is tlr perfect fottifier and regulator of
women at every critical period in their
development; from the time when they
u merge into womanhood until the “ chat ge
of life.” It is the one m< dicine which
makes motherhood safe and almost free
# from pain.
A lady'living at 1 Park Av< nue. Chicago, Ills.,
u Mrs. Emily Howe, writes: "I. myself, suffered
a long time from female weakness and seemed
to be gating into a decline. Took several bottles
’ of your Favorite l’ni iption ’ and it saved me
) from a ■.•■ ■at deal of suffering. I now enjoy per
1_ f t health and will ever praise the wonderful
_ efficacy of your medicine.”

world is Dr. R, V. Pierce’s tooo page illu

G, 1(10 students reported that 29
i of their regular student- and 59 |
I alumni had been com mi-Mom d

students and alumni in the
j volunteer army, a total of 541
officers, or enough f«r about|
twelve regiments. Furtlier, 1,084
[students and ex-students joined
the army as non-commissioned
officers or privates.
Accepting these statistics as a
fair average, it would a pear, i
says the report, that ths regu
lar and volunteer armies st cured
from the students au.iu illy in- j
structed by regular army ofli-!
cers at the various colleges;
enough officers for 24 egiments. [
In conclusion on tlii - subj ct, !
the inspector general says that;
seme substantial recognition
should be acco.ded the students
who spend a large part of their
school life in military study,and
he recommends the selection of
some of the best of thosa stu
dents for appointment annually
m the army. Such a policy, he
says, would Jbeueflt both the
students, the college and the
government.
