Owing to the lack of cash i'll the pockets
of our citizens the Sunday excursion to
Newport was hardly as well pasronized as
it deserved. Those Sunday excursions
tally with the men folks. as it gave them
an opportunity Of spending one day each
week with their wives or sweethearts Oh
the beach. Only eighty. five passengers
from Albany, Corvallis and other points
west were passengers last Sunday. The
weather was line, however, aud those who
took advantage Of the cheap rate enjoyed

greater business hisn, were those
which were OF the highest service in
the direction Of great institution OF
learning.
Columbia looked about for such q
man as that. The trustees did not care
for a man Of snowy or conspicuous
scholarship; had that been their pur.
pose another than Seth Low would
have been chosen. They did not deem
it essential that one wko had had wide
experience and great success as q
teacher should be chosen as DR.. Bar
nard's successor; if such had been their
| inclination they could have named
any one Of dozen men in the Column
bia faculty. They wanted . man pre-
eminent for administrative and busi-
ness ability, and when the name Of
Seth Low was suggested, il was ac-
cepted as a happy issue of many
months of anxious consultation.
Mr.. Low was elected president in
the fall Of 1889. and he was inaug-
urated in February of 1890. The offer
of the place came to him as a surprise.
At first it seemed to him as though al.
most any other man of college educa-
ton was better fitted by training and
inclination for that post But he
learned that the trustees expected that
the new president would be a man Of
affairs; that he would reorganize the
university; that he would undertake
| important business matters in connec-
| ton with it; that his work was to be
| constructive, and that while the peda-
Sogy of the institution, so to speak.
would be absolutely under his control
and direction. and that the energies of
the college in that direction were
widely extended.
So then this young man turned his
face away from those things which
seemed to be waiting for him in the
| future. and TO other things association
! with which neither he nor his friends
had ever dreamed to be his part in life.
| He might have lived in splendid lux
ury. He might have passed his time
in the library in the Incidence of asso-
citation with favorite authors. He
would have been welcomed among the
votaries OF fashion. lie could have led
n dreamy life aboard yacht. or he
could have spent exciting days with
| the huntsmen of the west or in the
wilds of Africa. He might have be-
come a politician, serving expediency.
and aimed at any honors which his
party had TO bestow. But he chose a
/ post requiring prolonged toll day after

| get no other personal benefit than that
which comes from the Development OF

To be graceful, entertaining, accom-
plished in music and French, easy talk
ers on topics of the day, yet up In an
cient history-this and much more IS
what society expects of the young girls
who ''come out" at 1S or 10.
In the few years before 90 so great a
change is wrought that we almost, as II
BY magic, see a woman, where but q
short time before was only a child.
If, during these critical years. con-
slant mental exertion absorbs blood and
nerve force, the system grows feeble
from lack of nourishment.
The vital mistake of the thousands OF
girls who yearly break down in schools
and colleges is just here: A vigorous.
healthy body and brain must have an
unlimited supply of pure, rich blood,
fully capable of building up growing
tissues and repairing the waste of hard
worked nerves and brain and body.
This is just what Paine's celery COM
pound is providing today Tor over
worked anxious run down" people al
over the United States and Canada.
If care be taken that no part OF the
body be poorly nourished, great deal
of hard work and study can be safely
gone through. But when young girls
are seen to grow thin, pale. spiritless
and nervous, there is plainly starvation
of some of the important organs and a
craving of the blood and nerves for bet
ter nutrition.
Paine's celery compound was first pre-
pared by Prof, Edward T.. Phelps, NJ
D., Ii. D., of Dartmouth College, with
man OF his day of what tired. weak,
and strong.
The happy effects of Paine's celery
compound III all cases of debility, nerv-
Gus weakness and impoverished, impure
blood are astonishing. 1t makes people
well where everything else fails.
This remarkable remedy makes sickly,
feeble women strong; does away COM
pletely with the languid feeling that
comes from underfed nerves and blood.
AS sure sign of its radical effect on
the system for good, it Is noticed that In
a short Time the eyes grow clearer and
brighter, the cheeks ruddier, and the
mind more active and hopeful.
Paine's celery compound cures dvs-
pepsia, sick headache, neuralgia, rheu-
matism, and every symptom of impure
blood, and permanently cures the most
difficult diseases of the liver, kidneys
ami heart.
Thousands and thousands of men and
