Among the Magazines.

The need of adding an educational test
to the other requirements for admission
is shown by the illiteracy Of the following
races from eastern Europe, which sent
over 1000 immigrants each during 1929:
Magyar 10.S per cent; Croatian and
Slovenian 261; Slovak 276; Polish 3l.3;
Lithuanian 32.4; southern Italian 57.2;
Portuguese 65.5. The average iliteracy
of races from western Europe was only
SO per cent, while that of immigrants
from eastern Eupope was 424 per cent.
The Hebrew illiteracy was 20.3 per cent.
All these figures of illiteracy refer only
to those immigrants over Ia years of age.
l have elsewhere shown the close and in
variable relation existing between litter
acy and general undesirabiity, and if this
be admitted the figures of illiteracy given
above show that the present laws are in
adequate to exclude all of the undersr-
able.-Prescott f.. Hall, in present

There is more catarrh in this section of
the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years it
was supposed 10 be incurable. For a
great many years doctors pronounced it
a local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing
to cure it with local treatment, pro-
nounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease, and therefore requires a consti-
tutional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure
is manufactured by f. j. Cheney Il Co,
Toledo, o., and is the only constitutional
cure on the market. It's taken internally
in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoon full
and acts directly on the blood and mu-
cous surfaces of the system, They offer

1t fails to cure. Send for circulars and
