How Prostitution Can DO Avoid
ed.

Wear light, airy clothing and
battle frequently. Be careful of
the diet. Advoid heavy meats.
A vegetable and fruit diet is the
best; fruits containing citric acid,
such as grapes, oranges, bananas
and lemons. Berries or other
seeded fruits are not healthful.
At the first sign of anything
wrong, especially ifthe brain be-
comes congested, battle the wrists
in ioe-cold water. This cools the
blood thoroughly and is better
than putting ice en- the head.

AN OLD SCHOOL

The most interesting feature of the meeting of the alumni of Hopkins Aca demy, at Hadey, Mass, July 31, vas the presence of Mrs. Drusilla Hall Johnson of Hockanum (East Hart ford). who is ninety six years of age, and who attended the school in 1923. Bishop Frederick D. Huntington, of Rochester, N r., who presided said he had expected to be the senior alumnus Of the academy present, but Mrs. John- son outranked him by many years. The bishop is eighty-two years of age and graduated from Hopkins Academy in 1885 He delivered the address on June &, 1859, at the two hundredth an- niversary of the settlement of Hadley. Hopkins Academy was established in 1864 through beauest by Edward Hopkins. the second Governor of Con- necticut, which was placed in charge of three trustees one of whom, William Goodwin moved from Hartford to Hadley. Some interesting facts about this ancient school, at which many prominent men have received part, or the whole, of their education, was giv- en in a letter which was read Wednes- day from Dr. Franklin Bonney, of Bos- ton:
 This institution is the outcome of a gift of Governor Hopkins of Connecti- cut, New Haven. Hartford, the town of Hadley, and, to some extent liar yard college, were the recipients of the gift. The three first mentioned places were to have received the larger sums. while Harvard college was to have had a smaller sum from the portion as- signed to Hadley. By some legerde- main the college later secured q sum destined for the use of the Hadley school That sum now amounts to be- tween thirty and forty thousand dol lars The restoration of this surlto the Hopkins fund of Hadley would place the school in an independent position. The Hopkins school was established In 1864, and for many years was conduct ed in a house standing upon the loca- ton of the house formerly occupied by Captain Giles F. Smith, now by Mir Crosier, The school was in it's earlier day more of a classical character. and females did not attend it to any ex- tent. Its teachers were graduates of Harvard college mainly, but some were educated at Yale and Williams. Many of the principals were men who won

NEW LONDON AS A GRAIN PORT.
Half Million Grain Elevator to be Built

Half Million Grain Elevator to be Built
 for Canadian Export Wheat.
 Hartford, Aug. 2.-At conference with the New London board of trade this week General Manager Logan, of the Central Vermont Railroad compa ny, explained in detail the plans of his corporation to erect a grain elevator at an expense of nearly s500,000 and to make New London a substantial export point. He reported that negotiations are now in progress for the construc- tion of an elevator with a capacity Of million and half bushels of grain. He declared that it was expected that the company would run at least five hun dred carloads of grain day to the ele- vator, and that line of steamers would be established. The Grand Trunk rail- road will cooperate with the Central Vermont system in the enterprise.
 Mir. Logan told the board that in or der to make the export business profit able it would be necessary to handle the grain promptly, and he wished the city of New London to eliminate two dangerous grade highway crossings that now impede railroad traffic. The board voted. with a single dissenting voice, to recommend that the city make the nec- essary appropriation for the abolition of the grade crossings.

THE FRANKLIN ELM.

The contractor who is trimming the big elm at the corner of Chapel and Church streets is now engaged in smoothing up the surface of the tree where the limbs have been cut off from time to time. The cuts were left with out sealing up and in consequence the work of decay has gone on. This de- cayed wood is being sawed away until live wood is found, the workmen in some places saving through two feet of wood Then the surface is securely covered over with tin, upon which is placed a coat of pitch preparation to keep out the water thoroughly. It is said that if this care had been taken years go the life of the tree might have been extended for years. As it is, it is believed the tree will last for quite a number of years.

TO TEACH sHIP-BuILDING.
New Branch of Study Established at
 the University of Michigan.

New Branch of Study Established at
 the University of Michigan.
 A little over year ago the board of
 regents of the University of Michigan
 established new engineering depart ment--that of naval architecture and
 marine engineering. At that time
 there were but two institutions of any
 note in the country which gave the
 course Cornell and the Massachusetts
 Institute of Technology. Columbia
 shortly afterwards followed Michigans lead and the chances are that in a comparatively short time most of the
 great universities situated near the lakes or the oceans will follow suit.
 The department at Ann Arbor Is un- der the charge of Professor Sadler, who is widely known in scientific sircles, and under his efficient direction 1t bids fair to assume a very important place in university work. Although 1t has been in operation only year, the num- Der of students applying for the work has already exceeded the expectation of the university authorities. The equipment is not yet complete but 1t contains all the necessary apparatus for study. The drawing rooms are fit ted with planimeters and integrators, and there Is mould loft" for laying off the vessels on a full-sized scale. In- struction is given in the use of instru- ments and in all the calculations neces- sary to the proper design of ships The work consists in lectures and recita- tions, drawing and using the mould loft, tests of resistance, etc.
 The erection of a tank for expert mental tests is contemplated by the regents, and Professor Sadler hopes that before long such tank may be constructed on the campus, At pres ent there is only one in the country that at the Washington hayward The tank would be about four hundred feet long by twelve feet deep, and could be placed near the gymnasium on the south. II would be fitted with an ap- paratus for making models of the diff ferent types of vessels, and an arrange ment for towing these models and reg istering the amount of their resistance, speed, etc The use of the tank would be invaluable to students in studying all questions relating to propulsion and the different forms of propellers,
 , The shipping on the lakes will be of great advantage to the department, I and visits will be made by the classes to various ship-yards to study the ac- tual work in progress there. Before the course is finished each student will be required to design some vessel to fulfil given conditions; os for instance, a fast torpedo-boat, an Atlantic liner, or a private yacht. He will have to make all the calculations connected , with the design, draw complete set of working plans, and make out an or der form and specifications, The course will be thoroughly practical and of great value to the student, and in these days of our rapidly growing mer- chant marine graduates of the depart ment will undoubtedly find little or no trouble in getting good situations Philadelphia Record.

high degree Of success in later life. Josiah Pierce, a resident of Hadley, taughtthe school foI ten years or more. The teachers were largely clergymen in later life. The earlier trustees were associated with William Goodwin, one of the trustees named in the will. For many years there was almost feud between those who supported MT. Goodwin in his purposes and those who wanted the fund placed in charge of the town and used for the support of the common schools. Colonel Part ridge led in the opposition to MT. Good win. The school prospered in the building it occupied after it's incorpora- tion, and was the most famous and popular educational institution in western Massachusetts for many years. Hartford Times.
