COEDs MUST BEHAVE.


Mrs. martha Foote Crow. dean of
women at Northwestern university at
Evanston, has declared against what
she calls "the indie licacies of a sorority
initiation" and trouble is liable to
follow any infringement Of the rules
which she has laid down for those who
lead the. ceremonies at which the fe-
male ueophyte is made member OF
the society Of her choice.
The public "horse play" Of the fra
ternities at Northwestern university
was abolished shortly before DR.. Henry
Wade Rogers resigned the Office of
president, but at that time the sor.
critics were much more subdued than
they ere now and the seoessity of re-
proving them had not been found By
the university officials.
At the present time, however, the
greater, part of Q sorority initia tion is
conducted In public. The eScsndidats is
ofien dressed in an outlandisb cos
tune and marched through the streets
after dark TO the discordant music of
her comrades. Their jackets are
turned inside out and in other ways
they sre made to look as disheveled as
possible. AT times, when an audience
large enough has bssn gathered. the
intsiate 10 placed on hoese-biock and

oration on some subject OF local in.

devices have been used, the candidate

middle Of the street. while those who
are initiating her pass around in a
circle singing . song Of which no one
but themselves knows the meaning.

A Physician Testifies.

81 have taken Kodol Dyspepsia Cure
and have never used anything in my
life that did me the good that did,"
says County Physician Geo. w. .Scroggs
of Hall County, Ga. "Being a physi-
clan have prescribed it and found it
to give the best results" If the food
you eat remains undigested in your
stomach it decays there and poisons
the system. You can prevent this by
dieting but that means starvation.
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure digests what
you eat. You need suffer from neith-
er dyspepsia nor starvation. The
worst cases quickly cured. Never
fails. w. r. Smith b Co.
