Chicago Business College.

Mr.: IL. B. Bryant, the original founder of
the Cham of Colleges, is now conducting the
Bryant Stratton Chicago Business College
III person, assisted by picked corps of the
most sklllful and practical teachers The
rooms, furniture and fixtures were consumed
by the great fire, but new rooms, new furni-
ture, and new fixtures were very soon pro-
vided, and the Institution is now in better CON
dltion than ever. 1t is no more expensive to
go to headquarters than to a second-rate
school New students are entering daily.
There are no vacations. Plenty of boarding
places at old prices. The College is on the
northeast corner of Twenty-second street and
Indiana avenue.

The Old Professor.
BY FRED. W LnRING

BY FRED. W. LoRING.
The old professor taught no more,
But fingered round the college walks;
Stories of him we boys told DER,
Before the fire, in evening talks.
III ne'er forget how he came in
To recitation, one March night,
and asked our tutor to begin:
And let me hear these boys recite."
As we passed out, we heard him saw.
= Pray leave me here awhile, alone,
Here in my old place let me stay
just as I did in years long flown"
Our tutor smiled, and bowed consent,
Rose courteous frop' his high-backed chair,
And down the darkening stairs he went,
Leaving the old professor there.
From out the shadows, faces seemed
To look on him in his old place.
Fresh faces that with radiance beamed-
Radiance of boyish hope and grace;
And faces that had lost their youth,
Although in years they still were young,
And faces DER whose love and truth
The funeral anthem had been sung
These are my boys" he murmured then,
My boys, as in the years long past;
Though some are angels, others men,
Still as my boys 1 hold them fast
There's one don't know his lesson now,
That one of me is making fun,
And that ones Cheating ;-ah see
see and love them every one.
" And is it, then, so long ago
This chapter in my life was told?
Did all of them thus come and go,
And have 1 really grown so old?
No! Here are my old pains and joys,
My book once more is in my hand
Once more I hear these very boys,
And seek their hearts to understand"
They found him there with open book,
And eyes closed with calm content:
The same old sweetness in his look
There used to be when fellows went
To ask him questions and to talk
When recitations were all DER
We saw him in the college walk
And in his former place no more.

Kcssrs. J. ". Harris 6 Co., Cincinnati Ohio:
GENTLEMEN heard one of my customers speak in
such high terms OF Aliens Lung Balsam to Iay that
thought would write you the substance of his state
nents He his mother. is now srit ,,egrs OF
age, has SUFFERED with CONSUMPTION for sFyrFp Al
YEARS, and has been under the care of ali orr 5est
pstcto1s, but never received any permanent benefit
then she resorted to every kind of Cough and Tnnc
Balsa1n that could be procured for her b al 10 no
@oot ohe stllI grew worse until she was confined to
ner beu; ana when she seized with Daroxysr1 of
coughing, she would lose the pOrer of respiration and
they compelled to to various means to re-
store breathing; and while she coughed so hard she
could not expectorate anything, and the family and
friends had given up all hopes of her recovery Her
son NOTICED the advertisement of Aliens Lung Basam
IN the Ch7a8Gf 4dUocGte, and they thought thew youd
procure and try it. They commenced giving her the
Balsam at O'Clock L. NJ, directed, a dose eyery
hour until mic night then she took another smell Of
coughing, and expectOrated mouthfuI of dark vel
low natter which WIS something she had NOT been
able to do for time. They continued to give her
the Basam until morning. and then she began to ex
pectorate freely, and within two hours she had
ToRATED THREE PINTS OF mUcus matter, which gave
her immediate relief; and since that time She has
continued to improve She sits up all day and can
walk about the house and take considerable outdoor
exercise Her son bought more of the Balsam TODAY

control them The testimony of our best citi-
zens, of all classes, establishes the fact, that
CHERRY PICTORIAL will and does relieve and
cure the affecting disorders of the Throat and
Lungs beyond any other medicine. The most
dangerous affections of the Pulmonary Organs
yield to its power; and cases OF Consump-
ton, cured by this preparation, are public
ly known, so remarkable as hardly to be be-
lieved, were they not proven beyond dispute.
AS remedy it is adequate, on which the public
may rely for full protection. By curing Coughs,
the forerunners Of more serious disease, it saves
unnumbered lives, and an amount of suffering
not to be computed. 1t challenges trial. and con-
vnces the most sceptical Every family should
keep it on hand as protection against the early
and unperceived attack of Pulmonary Affections,
which are easily met at first but which become
ncurable, and too often fatal, if neglected. Ten
der lungs need this defence; and it is unwise to
be without it. As safeguard 10 children, amid
the distressing diseases which beset the Throat
and Chest of childhood, CHERRY PICTORIAL
is invaluable; for by its timely use, multi
tudes are rescued from premature graves, and
saved to the love and affection centred on them.
1t acts speedily and surely against ordinary colds,
securing sound and health-restoring sleep. No
one will suffer Troublesome Influenza and pain
full Bronchitis, when they know how easily
they can be cured.
Originally the product of long, laborious, and
successful chemical investigation, no cost Or toll
is spared in making every bottle in the utmost
lied upon as possessing all the virtues it has ever
exhibited, and capable of producing cures as
memorable as the greatest it has ever effected.

FUNNY FACTS ABOUT FOWLS.
The Hartford Courant of November
16 prints lively account of the Hen
Convention in that city, which we
quote:
THE COLOR TEST.
Poultry breeding is 3. science that
the color of feather frequently deter
mines the whole existence of rooster.
The man who has got this thing to
fine point can go into the great conven-
ton now in session in Allyn Hall and
enjoy himself by detecting single
small feather which is off color coming
out of a surface that, but for the dis
covery, would send an immortal hen
(whose "son never sets'-old joke
down to posterity as irst-class sue
cess from an egg-shell to broil. The
man who cannot see early mortality
and absolute failure in life growing out
of a pin-feather may gaze into the rows
OF coops as if he were looking into
spaces, and when compared to the sci
ence of pulling feathers. But when
you have got educated up to the right
pltch-to the poultry standard
is more real enjoyment in cultivating
the intimate acquaintance of a hen or
heightened rooster, than in going to
Europe on fine art excursion. Not to
know, however, the difference between
fowl, from appearance, that would sell
on the hoof for thirty cents for round
steaks and one That is said to be worth
800 because ne will bring it out of his
subsequent family relations, is SO fatal
to human pleasure that the man nim-
self would probably consider it an in
suit to have his garden scratched by a
gray-legged wanderer, worth his weight
in gold, from his neighbours crop. It
is probable that a family of children,
taken early, and shown with care the
whole process of hen perfection in the
color line, would make, should not
the measles and a sudden cold inter
fere to give them apull-back, first class
scenic painters. Education from ma
ture is a great thing, and education
from a Cochin standing two feet high
in his bare feet is nature from a great
thing. But besides colors and strips
on the body, the fanciers now are MAX
ing strong exertiOn on the ear. A hens
ear is of little use except to the hen,
and has always been considered of no
account, DuG Since breeding III ana III
has got to the fashion, the fanciers
have discovered that the development
of the ear, in a coloring point of view,
has vital bearing on the intellectual
greatness of the bird. Sometimes de-
ception is practised, as, for instance,
where a quarrelsome fowl bites the ear
of his companion, the scar has been
pointed to as a mark of family distinc-
ton, when it is only evidence OF do
nestle agitation; but there are few buy
ers nova days who have not got educa-
ted beyond the ear bite, and there is
little danger of fraud being practiced
in that direction, All friends of pro-
gress viii rejoice to know that such
base attempt to impose upon good ma
ture has finally met its reward. The
mutilated-ear dodge has been fail
