BELLINGHAM FIGHT GRAVE
Principal Malhis Accused of Di
verting School Funds to Per
sonal ITse, as Well as
Selling Diplomas.
BELLINGHAM, Wash., Feb. 20.
Through their attorneys, Professors
Stone and O'SulIivan, formerly of the
Beilingham State Normal school, to
night filed with the board of trustees
of that institution 16 detailed charges
against Dr. E. T. Mathes, the principal
of the normal. The charges, include
dishonesty in handling school funds,
and the offering for sale of diplomas to
students of the normal not qualified to
graduate.
The filing of charges comes as the
culmination of a long civil war in the
normal. Six weeks ago the two pro
fessors made milder charges of inef
ficiency and Incompetence against Dr.
Mathes, and, after a hearing before the
board, were discharged. The board de
cided that, the charges had not . been
proven, and the professors' discharge
was, it was announced, a punishment
for airing the normal's dirty linen in
the press.
Since their discharge the two teach
ers have been engaged in quiet investi
gations, which Included a surreptitious
examination of the principal's books,
and they state that they have found
proof that lie diverted to his own bank
account certain school funds received
from the state. The allegation of the
sale of diplomas, they state they are
ready to support by the testimony of
some of those to whom the graduation
certificates were offered.
The seriousness of the charges and
the wide publicity given them is taken
to mean that a fight to a finish will be
waged, and that much concerning con
ditions at the normal which has been
kept carefully covered up in the past
ill be now aired.
Dr. Mathes has been principal of the
Beilingham Normal ever since the
founding of that institution in 1898.

Foul Breath
Made Pure and Sweet by the Use of
Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges.
Trial Pacta Be Sent Free.
Do not go among your friends with
a breath so odious as to make your
presence distasteful. Foul breath is
capable of easy removal if you will
take a little time to overcome It. Gen
erally foul breath comes from one of
two causes, impure gases or foul di
gestive fluids.
Charcoal Is the strongest absorbent
of foul gases known. It positively at
tracts poisons and neutralizes their
evil effects.
A nted French physician swallowed
strychnine enough to kill three men
and with a teaspoonful of charcoal re
moved the bad effects of this terribly
swift poison.
A little charcoal In a bedroom or
cellar will make foul air pure. .Pure
willow charcoal mixed with honey are
the component parts of Stuart's Char
coal Lozenges and pure breath Is the
result of their use after meals. Sim
ply dissolve two or three after meals
and at bed time and foul breath flees
at once. No matter how you cause
these gases, whether by bad food, alco
hol or abuse of the stomach, Stuart's
Charcoal Lozenges will stop gas mak
ing and sweeten the breath.
They are perfectly harmless and the
eating of a box would cause you 110
Inconvenience whatever.
Charcoal Is hard to prepare for the
stomach because it must be strong and
pure and most people will not take it
uniess made palatable. Stuart's Inimit
able process presents charcoal to the
taste and system in all the nicety de
sired. Choice virgin willow i3 burnt into
desirable charcoal; this Is . mixed with
pure honey and the combination is
compressed under tremendous power
into a lozenge of great' pleasantness
and efficiency.
Don't let your bad breath make peo
ple cross the ' street to avoid you; go
to the nearest drug store and buy a
box of Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to
day and eat what you will. Two or
three after the meal will sweeten your
breath at once. If you want proof of
this fact send us your name and ad
dress and we will send you a trial
package by mail free. Address F. A.
