When the little loved one is sick, when
its brow is fevered, its pulse rapid, its
features pinched with pain and there are
great blue circles under its eyes, the mother
hovers about the bedside, and with anxious
ewes tries to read the meaning of every ex-
preston upon the PHYSICIANS face.
A woman may save herself almost all OF
this worriment about her children II she
will but take proper care of her womanly
health during the period OF CESSATION. a
child born of a mother who is thoroughly
healthy in a womanly way will almost
unfailingly be healthy and robust. DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription acts directly
OH the delicate and important organs that
bear the burdens of maternity. 1t makes
them we'll, strong and vigorous. 1t heals
all internal liberation aud Inflammation.
1t stops facilitating drains. 1t fits for
motherhood aud insures a healthy child:
Thousands of happy mothers have destined

A Number of Changes Have
Been Suggested.
STANDING IN THE SCHOOL
Will Have a Great Deal to Do With
the Eligibility of a Candidate
In All the Events.

New York, Jan. 31.-Gustavus T. Kirby,
chairman of the advisory committee of
the intercollegiate athletic association,
today gave out changes in laws of the
association which will be proposed for
adoption at the annual meeting of the
I. A. A. in this city on February "a. Sec
ton four, of article II, which has to do
with eligibility for competitoin, has been
changed to read:
mo one shall represent any college or
university as a competitor at the annual
field meeting who has ever represented
any other college or university until after
an examination upon a full years work.
Section five of article II is likely to
cause a furry among school boy athletes.
1t reads:
mo one shall represent any college or
university as a competitor at the annual
field meeting who has ever won a first,
second or third place in any inter-
scholastic or open field or track sports,
until he shall have resided one calendar
year at the college or university he rep
resents and has passed an annual eXami-
nation on a full years work"
Other changes make ineligible a SUDDEN
unless he is working for a degree OF TAX
ing a special or partial course that re-
quires an amount of work regarded by
the college or university he represents as
equivalent to the work required of a
student for a degree, and one who has
been dropped from his class into a lower
class, or who, not being in good standing
in one department., has been transferred
to another until he has completed one
calendar years work n passed salts
factory examination thereupOn, or has
been permitted to regain the class or de-
partment from which he was dropped OF
transferred.
Something entirely new is embodied III
the following:
THE president of the association, i'm
mediately after election, shall appoint 6
faculty committee Of four, a member be,
ing designated from it's faculty by eacl
of the four universities or colleges max
ing the highest scores in points at tht
previous annual field meeting. This

TIPS FROM

Although the n is popularity
known as the "Millionaires Club the
individual members are not as a rule CIV
Ell to liberality. This is what the whites
aproned servants who look after the SEN
ator's wants in the restaurant say. A cor
respondent asked one of the old walters
the other day if he would rather wait on
senators than on sports. He grlnned and
said:
"Der's no campa'son. Gimme de
sports"
How much do you average each day

"Usually bout 49,"
who are star tip men?"

The old waiter is right in what he says.

day, make little outside Of their salaries.

eral years since a determined effort was
made by a committee of citizens of Pipe
stone to purchase it. as they did not want
so large q tract of land so near this city
lying idle. but the Indians would not part
with it for love or money. The next best
thing to do was to see if something could
not be lone with it, even if it remained
in the Indians possession. An apphca-
ton was made to congress-, an appfOprla-
ton of $50, 0O0 was obtained, and a sub
stantial school building was built on one
corner of the land. The school has proved
so successful tina a second building, the

date the ever-increasing number OF

The poem of ''HiaWatha" begins:
On the mountains of the prairie,
On the great Red Pipestone quarries,

neighborhood would naturally suppose
that it was hilly, to say the least. On the
contrary, the country is quite level, there
not being even what in eastern parlance
would be called a small hil' IN the
neighborhood. The quarry lies in about
the center of the bed of what is appar--
ently a prehistoric AXE, and when hfst

WHEN MI DAY IS DONE.

Few men have virtue to Withstand the
highest bidder.-George Washington.
You never saw a shadow in the dark.
There must be light near by or there is
no shadow. Get out of the shadow; move
over into the light.-Moody.
The attempt to serve God without love
is like rowing against the tide. Love
makes duty sweet. The angels are swift
winged in Gods service because they love
him.-John Watson.
All things decay with time; the forest
| sees the growth and downfall of her aged
| trees; that timber tall, which three-score
lustres stood the proud dictator of the
state-like wood-I mean the sovereign Of
| all plants, the oak-droops, dies and falls
without the cleaver's stroke.-Herrick.

A DOGS DAY ENDED.

boI . ~
I am only a dog, and l have had my day;
So, idle and dreaming, stretched out, l
lay ,
In the welcome warmth of the summer
A poor old hunter, whose work is done.
Dream? Yes, indeed though l am but a
dog
Don't I dream of the partridge 1 sprung
by the log?
OF the quivering hare in her desperate
flight,
OF the nimble gray squirrel secure in his
height
Far away in the top of the hickory tree,
Looking down safe and saucy at Mathew
and me,
Till the hand true and steady a messenger
And the creature ~up-bounded, fell, and
was not.
Old Mathew was king of the wood ranges
then:
And the quail in stubble, the ducks in
the fen,
The hare on the common, the birds on the
Were afraid. They are safe enough now.
For all we can harm them, old master
and ],
We have had our last hunt, the game
must go by, If
While Mathew sits f~ashioning bows in
the door
For a living. We never hun more.
For time, cold, and hardships have stiff
fened his knee.
And since little Lottie died, often see
His hands tremble sorely, and go to his
eyes
For the lost baby-daughter so pretty and
wise.
Oh, it's sad to be old, to see the blue sky
Look farther away to the dim, aiding
eye;
To feel the foot growing weary and sore,
That in forest and hamlet shall lag ever
more.
I am going-I hear the great wolf on my
track,
Already around me his shadow falls
black;
One huntins-time more, oh, master, come
And lay the white paws in your own as
l die.
Oh, come to me, master; the last hedge
is passed;
Our tramps in the wildwood are over at
last;
l Stoop lower, and lay down my head on
your knee.
| What! Tears for a useless old hunter
: like me?
2 You will see little Lottie again by and by;
5 I shan't; they don't have any dogs in the
sky;
Tell her, loving and trusty, beside you I
] died,
And bury me, master, not far from her
t side.
t For we loved little Lottie SO we'll, you
d Ha, master, the shadow; fire low; it is
night;
\ There was never a sound in the still
4 morning heard
But the heart of the hunter, his old JACKIE
! stirred.
AS he flung himself down on the brute:
shaggy coat
/ And watched the faint light in it's CULVER
ing throat
t Till it stopped quiet at last. The blacl
wolf had won,
And the th-hun hound into cove
had run.
But long ere the snow over graves softl,
It Old Mathew was resting from labor a
well,
While the cottage stood empty, yet bacl
from tho hill
d The voice of The hound in the morn echoe
still.

Eat Well in Hot Weather.

1T is mistake" said a physi-
clan, during the recent period of ex-
treme heat, 'to eat too little in hot
weather, just as it is mistake to eat
too much and the wrong things. Ex-
treme hot weather is in itself very ex-
hausting, and plenty of nourishment
is needed to sustain the system. This
nourishment should be of simple
and easily digested kind. For myself,
| find that milk and yichy taken at
regular intervals of two hours, dipped
rather than gulped down in single
draught, gets me through best on
very hot day, from breakfast to six
O'Clock dinner. Then / take care to
have a fairly hearty meal.-Pacifc

No Moral Right.

Bro. Cal Hicks says: mo one
has moral right to idle away time.
There is work for all to do. There
are responsibilities resting on each
one, the failure TO discharge which,
causes society to lose just what could
be accomplished in the time thrown
away, often much more. OF course
this does not mean that one must not
take rest and recreation; must not
have pleasure and enjoyment. These,
sensibly indulged, but the more prop
erly fit one for the discharge of his
duty
