A woman's attractiveness in the eyes of
man depends largely on her physical ap
pearance. Nature, in order to preserve the
race, guides mankind by the instinctive

- If intellect alone wer? chiefly Sought, the
offspring miftht be a generation of Solo
mons for wisdom, bnt they would perish
in miancy lor want ot Dhvsical stamina.
A weak or nnhealtiiy woman is unfitted to
mini ner part in perpetuating the race; she
is unequal to the demaids of motherhood
and wifehood, she is robbed of her natural
womanly attractiveness.
Many a woman is cheated of life's choicest

It gives clearness and bloom to the com

" I was a complete wreck; appetite gone, nerv

had taken a half bottle I began to improve; I
could sleep soundly the whole night, and would
awaken with an appetite for breakfast, which
was a rare thing as I never had for two years

"No more relief is needed at present"
is the word that comes from Canyon
City, hence the Times-Mountaineer
will not continue its subscription fund.
Yesterday $108 were subscribed to the
fund and $81 were paid in. which was
sent to the mayor of Canyon City.
No further collections will be made
until' the people of the afflicted ciiy
are heard from. If they need more
aid, the Times-Mountaineer will con
tinue its relief fund.
The Dalles responded nobly to the
call for assistance for the Canyon City
sufferers. Yesterday the citizens sub
scribed $108 to. the Times-Mountaineer
fund, and today many others offered
to donate, but their generosity was re
fused because of the announcement
that no more help is required. How
ever those who have subscribed and
not yet paid hold themselves in readi
ness to pay, should moro assistance be
required, and there are many others
who are willing to give if more assist
ance is needed.

Some Valuable Suggestions for Amend
ments to the State School Laws.
The educational meeting at Antelope
was attended by county superinten
dents and teaohers from Wasco. Crook
and Sherman counties. The meeUog
was called to ordt-r, in the advanced
room of the public school, Friday after
noon by Superintendent Gilbert. Fol
lowing the short address, stating the
purpose and circumstances fo the
meeting, the assembled teachers a- d
patrons joined in singir.g,with Mrs. H.
C. Rooper at the organ.
"Value of a High School Education"
was introduced for discusxiou by Prof.
J. S. Landers, who clearly stated the
general increase of mental power re
suiting from the high school educa
tion as supplementing1 the grammar or
rural school course and the special
practical value of the Hudy of civil
government as a reparation for intel
ligent citizenship; physical geography
and physics, as a means of understand
ing and using nature's forces, and
higher arithmetic and book-keeping,
asa preparation for business. Agener
al discussion followed in which many
additional points were made by the
several speakers.
The question of "School Room Deco
rations" was well presented by Miss
Mattie Barnes, teacher of the primary
department of the Antelope school.
Miss Barnes rightly thinks that child
ren do better school work amid pleas
ant surroundings, and suggested pict
ures for suitable decoration in the
sehoolroom, and recommended the use
of flowers and foliage in seasou. At
this stage Supt Gilbert called riupt.
Johnson to the chair and by bis re
marks precipitated a lively discussion
as regards particular modes of deco
ration. The subject "Penmanship" was dis
cussed oy Principal Haley, of the An
telope school, and his methods of
teaching were illustrated by black
board work. Mr. Haley is a good pen
man, a believer in the superiority of
the forearm movement, and is evident
ly an excellent teacher of the art.
The afterno n session closed with a
geneaal discussion on "Physiology."
The evening fcession was held in the
M. E. church. After the invocation
by Rev. Leach, and a recitation by
Miss Frankie Kinacid, G. M. Frcse, of
Moro, favored the audience with a
vocal solo and guitar accompaniment.
. Supt. Wm. Johnson, of Crook county,
was then introduced and made the
address of the evening on "The Duties
of Directors." He emphasized the
fact tbat directors soould be free to
act for the beet interests of the entire
district and should put aside all pe
cuniary and personal interests, should
visit the school, and should transact
all school business iu a business way.
Director. Orr, of the Wasco board,
stated the practice in his district of
holding regular board meetings, and
at stated times, of hearing suggestions
from the teachers concerntng im
provements in the various rooms, and
general suggestions concerning the
school work. In answer to inquiry,
Supt. Johnson stated that directors
were individually liable forpurchase of
charts anu apparatus made without the
board.
As a committee of the legislature
is preparing a revibion of the school
laws, of Oregon, and has invited
county superintendents and teachers
to advise in the matter, the subject of
"Needed Changes in tho Oregon
School Laws" was next taken up and
partly discussed. Final action was
deferred until the morning session.
The evening session closed with a
pleasing solo by Prof. Landers and
recitations by John Silvertootb and
Charles Caldwell.
The discussion of the resolutions
and changes in the school law was re
sumed at 9 o'clock Saturday morliing
As in the evening discussion. Messrs.
Gavin, Johnson, Beatty, Haley, Leach
and Supt. Ragsdale, of Sherman
county, took active part in the con
sideration of the various resolutions.
Finally upon motion of Mr. Beatty,
the twelve resolutions were unani
mously adopted as first introduced as
follows:
1st. The financial year should be
made to conform to the school year
and end about the first Monday in
July.
24. it should be made more difficult
to obtain state papers and the fees
charged for granting same should be
reduced one half, and said reduced
tees snouid ail go to tne county insti
tute fund with the fees for county cer
tificates.
3d. With fewer state papers, second
and first grade county certificates
should be- re-issued as the result of
regular examinations.
oth. Teachers should be required to
attend the county institute at
least five days, and if durinar school
term, be allowed full pay for the time.
otn. l be slate board of education
snouia oe authorized to prepare a
course of study for rural schools.
7th. lhe members of the state
board of examiners should be paid for
their services, and should meet after
each examination, and grado the work
of all applicants for state papers.
lie. ine enumeration tor the pur
pose oi arawinir scnool money should
oe cnana-ed irom 4 to 20 years, as at
preseent, to from 6 to 20 years inclus
ive to conform with the ages for free
school atteuaance.
8th. The term of the countv superin
tenaent snouid be increased from 2 to
4 years, and only persons holdins'
valid first grade cqunty certificates
(r better) and having taught school
at least 18 months in Oregon should
be eligible to the office.
9th. Qualifications for voters at
school meetings and elections should
be uniform for districts having less
than 4,000 population (those districts
having only thre directors) and
should inciud tax payers and patents
haviiid childn-n to educate.
10th. The law should clearly give
t each district the power to decide
whether or not high school studies
should be tautrbt in addition to the
common branches.
11th. The two present normal
schools maintained at state expense?
art amplv suiiii-ient for educational
needs of Orvgon for ten years in the
lutur.
12ih The minimum school tnrin
for drawing public funds should be in
creased from 3 to 4 months.
Mr. G. M. Frost then read a well
considered paper on "reading:" He
is disposed to giye to reading the place
as "the corner stone of the common
school education" and thinks that
arithmetic was unduly prominent in
the program of "ye olden pedagogue."'
Mr. Frost favors thorough preparation
and silent, or mental grasp of the
thought, as a pre-requisite to elocu
tionary drill Mr. Landers followed as
leader in discussion and merged the
subject of "reading" with that of "Lit
erature," -regularly assigned on pro
gram but in seeming danger of omis
sion because of lack of time.
The visiting teachers passed a vote
of appreciation to the people of Ante
lope for attendance and interest shown
in the meeting and the hospitable ar
rangements made for their comfort.
Principle Haley spoke appropriately
for the people of Antelope and at 11:20
the meeting adjourned.
The afternoon and evening attend
ance of citizens was quite large. In
the morning session but few seats
were vacant after ten o'clock.
Antelope has secured a good system
of water works and is rapidly rehuil'
ing since the fire of last July. A good
public school is maintained for nine
months in the year. The course of
sudy covers eight grades and about
90 pupils are now in attendance. The
school has largely increased in the
past few years and.it seems tbat a third
teacher will be necessary, if such
growth coutioues next year.
The Dalles party consisted of Gil
bert, Landers and Gavin. They made
the trip to Boyd .Wednesday evening,
to Sherar's Bridge Thursday morning,
to Bakeoven in the afternoon, and
from Bakeoven to Antelope Friday
morning. Returning they Mt Ante
lope at 1 P. M. Saturday and remaihed
over night at Sherar's, drove to Boyd
Sunday forenoon, and from Boyd home
in the afternoon.
They report the roads in excellent
condition from Sberea's to Bakeoven,
but muddy on the remainder of the
route and very muddy from The Dalles
to Twelve Mile.
Owing to the great difficulties of the
trio the expected delegation from
Prineville failed to arrive. However,
three teachers from Northern Crook
County were in attendance.
Supts. Johnson, Rasrsdale and Gil
bert are earnest workers for the im
provement of the schools in their re
spective counties. The educational
meeting was a success.

But, jny dear comrade, have you not
yet learned to make, allowance for the
exaggerations and sensational tenden
cies of reporters? All soldiers, regu
lars and volunteers, have to pass
through a period of discipline and in
struction. And it is as unfair to
comment on all the irregularities of a
new regiment as it is to publish all
the escapades of a school boy.
All the matters referred to by thf
Sun correspondent were investigated
and disposed of, and nothing has been
condemned.
Wf at I particularly admire in the
Oregon and California regiments is
tbat they take their medicine like men,
and have never shown any spirit of in
subordination or lack of loyalty.
This.has impressed mo with such con
fidence that I have on several occa
sions selected them for the perform
ance of most important duties, and
their service on such occasions has
been such as to show that my confi
dence had not been misplaced.
I may add. Captain Case and Lieu
tenants Bryon, Povey and Moore have
been helpful to me, and on the occa
sion mentioned Captains Heath, Pres
cott. Wells and Lieutenant Telfer and
also Private Riy Green bad the oppor
tunity to distinguish their worth,
but I believe every officer and man
would have done his best if called
upon.
As to the Oregon officers being a
superlative lot of politicians, I will say
as a rule, politicians are earnest pa
triots and useful men to their country.
I know Ceasar was a politician gener
also was Cromwell. It is the abuse
and not the use of politics, we should
condemn.
Tell your Oregon men not to mind
paper pellets. Act as well your part.
There the honor lies. Very sincerely,

writes of Dr. Miles' Heart Core. Two yean
ago an attack of LaGrippe left me with a
weak heart. I had ran down In flesh to
mere skin and bone. I could not sleep lying
down for smothering spells; frequent sharp
darting pains and palpitation caused a con
stant fear of sudden death, nothing could
induce me to remain away from home over
night. My local physician prescribed Dr.
Miles' Heart Cure and In a few days I was
able to sleep well and the pains gradually
lessened, and finally ceased. -1 reduced the
the doses, having gained fifteen pounds, and
