A UIIKIt.U, OFFER.
By reforence to the article on an
other page In this Issue, it will be
Keen that another phase 1b added to
the location or the proposed new
high school which Is worthy of at
least tho serious attention of the
citizens and noard of Education.
This liberal offer by a well known
citizen may be the result of opening
up of other propositions which must
not be overlooked In the final decis
ion. There are many things to be
taken Into consideration In the
building of this new school house,
nnd one of these Is the fact that we
are building for tho future needs
or the city, as well as the Imperil
tlve demands of tho Immediate p'res
ent. Hoseburg Is bound to grow, Is
not only a hoped Tor, but an ad
mitted fact, and there are but two
directions In which this expansion
can take place, these being west and
north, and a location which todny
may seem remote, may in a very few
years be as nonr (he center of pop
pulatlon as the present Lane school
property now Is. Owing to the pe
culiar topography of Hoseburg, It is
difficult to obtain a large area of
level land Bufflclont for, the pur-
poso, without buying considerable
high priced property, unloss admit
tedly unfit locations are selected,
and this is a proposition but few
citizens will entertain. Tho plans
for a new building are already ad
vertised for, and when tho onos are
finally selected, a location must' be
decided upon, so that construction
bids enn be rocelved, and it is well
that the matter of location bo i
thoughtfully looked. Into.

Any numiikb of methods for reduc
ing flesh have been advanced, yet
ench cose seems to require some
thing Individual. Fat women are
told to diet and they will literally
starve themselves, eating but tiny
portions of food without fatty par-
tides in it and they will go on In
creasing in weight. Often their sys
tems, used to turning everything Into
Int, simply get renewed vigor from
the ease on the digestive organs
and go on making flesh.
Extremely hot salt baths are apt

ter effect. This much Is true that
if you exercise enough to consume
more particles of energy than you
niako per day, you will positively
lose weight.
I have never known this to fall
in the case of fat women and I
pass the method along to you. You
have been living in a certain routine
for years and fattening on it. You
must change your method of living
entirely, to reduce. Slight changes
will bring no results at all. Eat less,
and of different things from what
you are accustomed, change your
drinking water if you con, change
every habit you have. Sleep less,
walk more, run as much as you can,
change your work if you can, If not,

Contrast to the populnr notion,
every graduate of a medical school
who obtains a license to practice his
profession Is legally and education
ally qualified to do surgery. There
Is no special course of training re
quired by law In order to practise
nurgery. The general medical school
course fits a man for medical and
surgicnl work. However, It la cus
tomary to spend some additional
time in post-graduate work if the
physician wishes to establish himself
In surgery customary, but by no
means essential.
Now it is unfortunate for the
public that the view prevails that, be
cause a man can operate, he neces
snrlly knows more about the diag
nosis nnd treatment of dlsonse than
another man who does not operate.
Wo say unfortunate for this reason:
There are surgeons and near-surgeons.
Surgeons fully realize their
own shortcomings in diagnosis and
therapeutics or treatment. Near
surgeons eagerly avail themselves of
the people's credulity and attempt to
play the role of all-around specialists.

and to operate on slight pretext or
