During the summer of 1891, Mr.
Chas. =. Johnson, a well known at
torney of Louisville, Ky, had very
severe attack of summer complaint
Quite number of different rene
dies were tried, but failed TO afford
any relief. A friend who knew what
was needed procured him a bottle
of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy. which quickly
cured him and he thinks, saved
his life. He says that there has not
been day since that time that he
has not had this remedy in his
household. He speaks of il in the
highest praise and takes much
pleasure in recommending il when
ever an opportunity is offered. For

UNIVERSITY CENTER.

On Tuesday evening of last
week the class met at the library
rooms and talked with Socrates,
Plato and Aristotle. They enjoyed
Plato's Academy very much. The
following is one: NO other nation
has existed that could turn its hand
to so many different things. and
succeed in them all so well. There
were never any better soldiers; new
er any better sailors; never any bet
ter colonizers and traders; never
any better sculptors, painters. arch
itects; never any better orators. po-
cts, historians, critics. rhetoricians,
philosophers, mathematicians; new
er any better leaders, statesmen,
diplomatists; never any better gym
mast, any better gentlemen, any
better wits, than you will find
among the ancient Greeks; and GER
tainly, in proportion to the number
of the whole people. never so many
eminent, in the various ways thus
indicated"
The literature of Greece is re-
markable equally for its matter and
for it's form. The Greek mind was
curious, bold, enterprising, saga
cious, acute, subtle. There never
has been anywhere else in the
world, so much writing approach
ing so nearly to ideal perfection in
form as among the Greeks.
Another very interesting subject
was the manner in which the
Athenians were educated. Then
DIR. Thompson, Miss Quigg. Mrs.
Holomon AID Miss Nichols read
extracts from the excavation of the
German explorer, Schliemann, writ
ten by his wife. While they were
all very interesting the last read
was of most interest to the class,
which was his discovery of the site
of ancient Troy-or lion, as the
class had been studying the scenes
of the Trojan war--a war that had
been rendered immortal through
Homer's Had, but II place which
had been lost to the world for many
centuries.
In those extended excavations of
Schliemann. through the pen of his
wife, we could see ten different lay.
ers, one resting on the other. the
most modern of which belongs to
the Roman times, while the most
ancient goes back to such high an
tiquity that we are not yet able to
fix its date, even approximately.
The class will drop the regular
work and devote the next week to
preparation for the appreciation of
Professor Cosand's "Parlor Talk on
Dante"
The class stands ready to con-
graduate former member of the
University, and one of it's brilliants,
for leaving the state of single bless
edness and entering the double life.
We know we express the wish of
the entire class when we say that
now as the most eventful epoch in
Eva's life is passed we all would
rejoice to see her return to her first
love with her double self. 49,

a yield of 800 crates of Strawberries

son were near 81. Now IL not 10 ex.
coed SOC per crate could be realized
from the crop it shows that SOC
crates to the acre would net the
grower $3.50 to the acre. When a
crop of such great value can be
produced, there is no reason why
any requisite labor should not be
bestowed upon the land to insure
the largest possible yield. For
such returns the soil could easily
be put in a perfect condition as the
finest garden and every inch of il
could be profitably fertilized with
the finest manures. Mulching at
the proper time in the fall should
do much to defeat the severest
drouth, and there is no reason why
immense profits should not result
from strawberry farming IN this
locality.
