Corporal Punishment Soon to Restored in New York. ' As a result Of Investigation' and dis cussion that have heen going on for several mouths, principals and teach ers lu the New York public schools expect a new rule will soon he adopted by the Board of Education returning to corporal punishment under certain re; strictlons. This decision will have heen largely Influenced by an Investigation recently made by a special committee appointed for that purpose. The chair man of that committee is Nathan S. Jonas, and ho has sent out circulars to teachers In all the large cities of the United States asking for their experi ence and judgment In the utntter of the use of tho rod. Answers received are overwhelming ly in favor of reasonable punishment' in certain cases, and a report Is soon expected from Mr. Jonas' committee recQiumendlng a revision of the school law of New York to that end. In twenty-six cities out of thirty-nine of the largest In the United States corpo ral punishment Is allowed under cer tain restrictions. The matter has been considered ex tensively In the latest report of the United States Commissioner of Educa tion, Dr. Elmer E. Brown, of Wash ington, who, after extensive study and Investigation, holds to the view that corporal punishment, judicially admin istered, has heen shown to be produc tive of the best results In most of the arger cities. When the report of Mr. Jonas committee Is submitted to the ward It will be made public and th matter will be generally discussed be fore definite action Is taken. A Berles of articles now appearing la the Scientific American makes re ply to the charges against the Ameri can Navy contained In the McClure article by Artist Reuterdahl. The first article alms to show that the various boards which have determined the characteristics of the American Navy have had a majority of their member ship composed of sea-going officers, contrary to the statement made by Reuterdahl. The second one contra dicts the statement that none of our battle ships has Its main armor belt 0 Inches above the water when fully equipped. It Is asserted that our ves sels show from 18 Inches to 11 feet 0 Inches of armor belt above the water line when fully equipped.- As to the alleged low freeboard of our ships, the Scientific American points out that, with the single exception of the Dread naught, there is not a ship in the Brit ish Navy with the forward deck 28 feet high. ' As to the broadside guns, the writer holds that they are as high as similar guns In the German and Japa nese navies, and from 2 to 4V6 feet higher than those of some of the mod ern British battle ships. The writer cuiiciuuctt ilia I Aiueilcuii hlpa lu uia matter of heavy armor are ton for ton superior to the ships of other navies. The results of exhaustive experi ments conducted by the Bureau of Chemistry of the Department of Agri culture to determine the poisonous ef fect of such drugs as borax, benzoic acid, benzoate of soda, sulphate of Jopper, sulphur dioxide, formaldehyde and salicylic acid when used as pre servatives In foodstuffs have been out lined before the House Committee on Agriculture by Dr. II. W. Wiley, chief of RHEUMATISM CAN NOT BE JIUBBED AWAY It la perfectly natural to rub the spot that hurts, and when the inu9cle9, lerves, joints and bones are throbbing and twitching with the pains of Rheumatism the sufferer is apt to turn to the liniment bottle, or some other external application, in an effort to get relief from the disease, by producing Kunter-irritation oa the flesh. Such treatment will quiet the pain tempo rarily, biit can have no direct curative effect oa the real disease because it loes not reach the blood, where the cause is located. Rheumatism is mora than skin deep it is rooted and grounded in the blood and can only be reached by constitutional treatment IT CANNOT BE RUBBED AWAY. Rheumatism is due to an excess of uric acid ia the blood, brought about by the accumulation in the system of refuse matter which the natural avenues Df bodily waste, the Bowels and Kidneys, have failed to carry off. Thia refuse matter, coming ia contact with the different acids of the body, forma aric acid which is absorbed into the blood and distributed to all parts of tha body, and Rheumatism gets possession of the system. The aches ajid paina ire only symptoms, and though they may be scattered or relieved for a timq by surface treatment, they will reappear at the first exposure to cold or lampness, or after an attack of indigestion or other irregularity. Rheuma asm can never be permanently cured while the circulation remains saturated with irritating, pain-producing uric acid poison. The disease will shift irom muscle to muscle or joint to joint, settling on the nerves, causing Inflammation and swelling and such, terrible pains that the nervous system 8 often shattered, the health undermined, and perhaps the patient becomes Jeformed and crippled for life. S. S. S. thoroughly cleanses the blood and renovates the circulation by neutralizing the acids and expelling all foreign natter from the system. It warms and Invigdrates the blood so that instead of a weak, sour stream, constantly deposit ing acrid and corrosive matter in the mus cles, nerves, joints and bones, thebody is fed and nourished by rich, health-sustaining blood which completely and permanently cures Rheumatism. S. S. S. is composed of both purifying and tonic properties just what is needed in every case of Rheu matism, It contains no potash, alkali or other mineral ingredient, but ia made entirely of purifying, healing extracts and juices of roots, herbs and barks. If you are suffering from Rheumatism do not waste valuable time lying to rub a biood disease away, but btIu tho use ci S. S. .

Walter Fewkes, an Investiga tor employed by the Bureau of Eth nology, who has been looking Jnto the orlglu of the first Inhabitants of the Island of Porto Hico, now reports his oncluslon that the West Indies were formerly connected with South Ameri- a, whence came the primitive Carrib eans to Porto Ulcot and not from Yu :atun, Florida or elsewhere, as-4ield by the scientists who accept the the Dry of a prehistoric Island extending almost across the Atlantic Ocean from he Carrlbean Sea to Africa. This fa- sled Atlantis, now supposed to have been submerged lu some change In the nrth's crust, has served as the hypo thesis to account for- Immigrations of primitive man, mammals and plants from the Old World to the New, thus accounting for the ruins of Egyptian pyramids and architecture In Yucatan Dr. Fewkes virtually shatters this the ary by asserting that the ridge of the Antilles pxtends from north to south nstead of from east to west. : :- 1 That the duty on sugar and tobacco 6e removed is again recommended In the report df Secretary of War Taft n the Philippine Islands. This course, he says, Is necessury In order to have these industries attain their former prosperous-condition, and he believes that the removal of the duty would not injure any American Interest nor o'f: feet the prices of sugar and tobacco In this country. He also urges Cou iress' to remove the present restric tions on tlie acquisition of mining Malms; to authorize the Insular gov ernment to conduct an agricultural bank, and that our coastwise laws be made Inapplicable to trade " between the United States and Philippine ports. The President concurs In tlie raft recommendations and gives espe- 3lnl praise to Governor Smith and his associates for their conduct of affairs h the Philippines. William J. Bryan appeared before the House Committee on Election of President and Vice President for the purpose of urging the passage of a bill providing for publicity of cnmpalgn contributions to tlie political parties.
