Another matter of public interest' eonsidt-red at this same meeting- was that of determining what should be' tha attitude of the students toward the serious and seemingly growing trouble of damage to enllrge property.

If. after a week's time has elapsed since the occurrence of any offense against the law and the offender has ot given In the damage, the damage Is to be bulletined and then the guilty party is to be dealt with as a violator of his pledged honor, it is re it mat the students have made a long step toward settling a serious and vexing problem and that the trouble will now practically be a thing of the past.

We became very uneasy about him, as the doctors could not define the nature of his hurt. His whole system became in volved from his condition, the doc tors' treatment gave him no relief, and One of the physicians advised an operation. - He discharged a great deal of .blood from his nose and would frequently vomit blood, but the doctors said that came from his stomach ' and not from the hurt Then one of my friends, who had un bounded faith In Mrs. Joe Person's Remedy,' begged me to use it My husband lost his flesh and was greatly reduced, and at that time we did not expect him to live' long. We got Mrs. Person's Remedy and put him on it and in twenty-four hours we could see a change for the better. The vomiting of blood ceased, which made us hopeful.
