No Poison in ChamberIain's Cough Remedy.

From the Napier, New Iceland Her
aid: Two years ago the Pharmacy
Board of New South Wales, Aus
tralia, had an analysis made OF all
cough medicines that were sold in
that market. Out of the entire list
they found only one that they de-
clared was entirely free from poison.
This exception was Chamberlain
Cough Remedy, made by the Cham
berlain Medicine Company, Des
Moines, Iowa, U. S. A. The absence
of all narcotics makes this remedy
the safest and best that that can be
had; and it is with a feeling of Sc
curity that any mother can give IT
to her little ones. Chamberlain
Cough Remedy is especially recon-
mended by its makers for coughs,
colds, Group and whooping cough.
This remedy is tor sale at the Mason
Valley Drug Store.

STORY OF EvERYMAN.
Scope of Morality Play at Washburn
Tomorrow Evening.

"Everyman,' the quaint revival of
the English Elizabethan society, will
be given tomorrow wednesday,
evening at the chapel at Washburn
college. The local share of the pro-
ceeds will be applied to the deficit of
the Washburn Athletic association,
which is about $500 in the hole on the
football season.
tend this performance will no doubt
feel repaid for going to it and at the
same time will help the football club
to wipe out the deficit of the past year.
Tickets for this production were
placed on sale this morning at STAINS
fields drug store and at the college
The demand has been good and a large
crowd will no doubt witness the per-
Torrance.
The play occupies a field peculiarly
its own and reads a lesson broad in it's
view of life and the ultimate end of all
existence. Allegoric and beautiful, it
has none of the elements of q play
that the public is used to seeing on tn e
stage. The change in the character of
"Everyman" from his buoyant en-
trance, in festive attire, eXulting in his
joyous full-blooded life. to the time
when deserted by everyone save his
good deeds, he fully realizes that he
must obey the command to accompany
death to the great beyond, makes a
deep and lasting impression.
Four early fmprintS of "Everyman"
are at present known and are carefully
preserved in the British museum,

Carnegie Says He Never Signed Chad
wick Notes.

New York, Dec 6.-Interest in the
Chadwick case centers in discussion as
to what the immediate future was to
reveal in the strange case of the wo-
man whose tangled financial affairs in
this city and Cleveland have furnished
a sensation of almost uneQualed pro-
portions. With the arrest of the Ober-
lin, o., bankers, the first step looking to
criminal prosecution in the case was
taken.
A United States secret service agent
is at the Holland House, and has a
room on the same floor as Mrs. Chad
wick's apartments. He would not ex-
plain for what purpose he was station
ed there.
Andrew Carnegie's secretary gave out
the following statement:
Mr. Carnegie wants me to say that
he does not want to be bothered any
more about this Chadwick woman He
of his name and wishes it to cease at
once. Once for all. he never knew Mrs
Chadwick, or any other such woman,
and he never signed any such paper as
the reports credit him with. That it

the Oldest, bears the imprint:
IMPRINTED in London in Flete Street by
me, Rycharde Pynson, Printer to the
Kyngs Moost Noble Grace.
Pynson in 1909 was appointed special
printer to King Henry VIII. The COM
position of "Everyman" is however. of
much earlier date than that of this
edition, and the first performance of the
play was no doubt given several years
before the birth of the sixteenth CEN
fury. J. Payne Collier and Ten Brink
both assign it to the reign of Edward
" Q451-14S3). The name of the au-
thor is unknown, but it is generally be-
lieved that he was a monk, who had
had previous experience in writing
or miracle plays. There can
be no doubt that the story itself is
based on a parable narrated in the re-
ligious romance of Barlaam and Jehosa-
phat, which is now ascribed to John
of Damascus, the younger, afterward
Patriarch of Antioch. who died in 1890.

school, he neglects the chaider. The
melamed, in a long black coat and tall
hat, then comes to his home. The con-
trast between this solemn pedagogue
and the busting young woman who
directs his public school education
is so marked that he often makes II
point to forget Yiddish entirely.
Then there is no longer any need for
the melamed.
Another important factor In the
Transformation is the tendency to re-
verse the customary relations existing
between Jewish fathers and sons. In
Russia the father supports his son I'M
til marriage and as long afterward as
is necessary. That fact makes the IA
Their the real head of the house. In
America the son begins very early to
contribute to the material welfare of
the family. He is sometimes better
qualified to do SO; he speaks English
and has a knowledge of American ways
of doing. The father begins by depre-
eating his sons alien cleverness and
ends by laudfng and respecting him.
The Slavonic Jews who come to Amer
lea after middle age do not. as a rule,
succeed in achieving marked financial
Independence. Their triumph over for
tune must be brought about through
their children.
The commercial triumphs of Slavonic
Jews are so numerous and so notewor-
thy that the business history of every
American city is replete with them. II
there be an actual commercial pinnacle
higher than merchandising they have
not yet reached it in any considerable
numbers. In New York they have mo-
nopolized the cloak and umbrella in
dustries and have obtained firm hold
upon the clothing trade. The Hebrew
bankers and brokers who are known on
Wall street are not Slavonic in origin;
they are the descendants of German
merchants and even professional men
who came to America long before the
Slavonic immigration began. They have
long since become thoroughly identified
with the best features of American life.

ed to the melamed, or teacher, who
holds out before him the Hebrew al
phabet printed OF painted on a large
chart Before teaching him the first
letter the melamed gives him a taste of
honey. after which he tells him that
the study of the holy law is sweeter
than the substance he has tasted. Aft
er the lesson coin falls from the CELL
ing, and the child is told that 1t has
dropped from heaven as a reward for
learning his first lesson. In the chaider
the lad is taught the prayer book, the
Pentateuch and other portions OF the
Old Testament and begins the study of
the more intricate Talmud. At thir-
teen he is confirmed and continues the
study of the Talmud, at which he will
persevere all his life long if he remains
faithful to his early traditions. More
than likely his parents are hoping that
he may become a rabbi or Talmudfcal
scholar.
In his Slavonic home the boys life
conforms with the religious education
he received at the chaider. In the SIM
pie Jewish community in Russia, where
the chaider is the only school for him,
where the government is hostile and
the Hebrews are therefore dependent
upon their own customs, the lad loves
his religion. loves and honors his
parents. and his highest ambition is
to become a great Biblical -cholar
For him the law outweighs all else in
value.
In America, even before the little
Jewish boy enters the public school, he
awakens to the fact that he is In con-
tact with a world which is in violent
contrast with anything he has known
hitherto. Almost imperceptibly at the
beginning, but gradually becoming more
definite, he learns few words of Eng
fish, little American slang, hears
vaguely of things that interest even
though they alarm him and begins to
