It Is therefore important that 1t should have money with which 1t can legitimately aid students who come from families of small incomes Such scholarships If legitimately used do not harm the men to whom they are given.

 "Tell me something about the Carne- gle Institute. Doctor Harper"
 The Carnegie Institute Is doing a splendid work In cooperating with the colleges and universities in encour- aging research" was the reply Tt Is understood that the colleges do not re- duce the amount of their expenditures through any assistance rendered by the Carnegie fund. On the other hand, strong men who have the talent for re- search are thus encouraged to do valu- able work. It is to be hoped that as the arrangements of the Carnegie In stitute are more definitely planned the results will become even more definite and more substantial"

 The large institutions will never swallow the smaller ones," replied Dr. Harper. What we need today is not n fewer number of colleges, but a greater number. Every city of 50.- 900 people should have college for It. self and the community immediately surrounding 1t. and I predict that in the years to come the number of small colleges vii be infinitely multiplied.

CAN DRINK TROUBLE
That's One Way to Get It.

Although they won't admit 1t many people who suffer from sick headaches and other ails get them straight from the coffee they drink and it is easily proved If they're not afraid to have 1t to a test as in the case of lady in ConnelIsville.
 .I had been A sufferer from sick headaches for twenty-five years and anyone who has ever had bad sick headache knows what I suffered. Sometimes three days in a week I would have to remain in bed. at oth- CT times couldn't lie down the pain would be SO great. My life was tor ture and if I went away from home for a day I always came back more dead than alive.
 "One day I was telling a woman my troubles and she told me she knew that 1t was probably coffee caused it. She said she had been cured by stop ping coffee and using Postum Food Coffee and urged me to try this food drink.
 That's how I came to send out and get some Postum and from that time I've never been without 1t for 1t suits my taste and has entirely cured all of my old troubles. All did was to leave off the coffee and tea and drink we'll made Postum in its place. This change has done me more good than everything else put to- gether.
 our house was like a drug store for my shusband bought everything he heard of to help me without doing any good, but when I began on the Postum my headaches ceased and the other troubles quickly disappeared. I have a friend who had an experience just like mine and Postum cured her just as it did me.
 "Postum not only cured the head aches but my general health has been improved and I am much stronger than before. I now enjoy delicious Postum more than I ever did coffee" Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich.

cost of college education varies with the location of the college, the atmos- phere around it, and especially with the circumstances of its foundation. There are colleges in which a boy may receive a fair training for $2OO per an- mum, and there are others in which he cannot spend year for less than $500 or $500. Tn both eases he can general ly find opportunities to earn a large part, if not all. of his expenses. Our State universities of the West charge either no tuition fees or very small ones."

Points of Etiouette.

On the matter of introductions ai- ways remember the rule that the infe- rior, so to speak. must be presented to the superior; a single woman Is in- troduced to a married one and a gem tleman is introduced to a lady. It is not necessary for a lady to rise from her seat when a gentlemen Is intro- duced unless he Is her host or is very old or distinguished.
 Then, about calling, when a new conner comes to a district the older res- idents' call first never the other way. The first call must be returned within a week. Calls after entertainments must be paid within the week. and the lady of the household must be asked for after dinner or dance. but a RIar- den party makes the exception to the rule, and there is no occasion to call after this form of entertainment.

 The College as . Grofession.
 What do you think, doctor. of the college as a profession? Do our pro- fessors receive suficient salariesr
 The college professor Is seldom adequately paid" replied Dr. Harper. land the same Is true of the teachers in tho public schools. When we taKe into account the ability required, the cost of preparation, the constant in- tellectual strain under which pro- lessor or teacher works. the impor- tance of having means for the pur- chase of books and travel, and the ne- cessity of providing for old age. 1t Is beyond question true that the salar- ies paid in America are sadly inade- quate.
 On the other hand 1t is to be re- membered that these salaries are per- haps larger than in any other country, even Germany not excepted. and also school teacher have many compensa- tions. It Is probably true that no other profession of today offers larg- CT or more flattering Inducements to  young men or young women of real ability.

With the increase in. cost there has also come the establishment of scholarships. of loan funds. of agencies for assisting the students to obtain work. and the number of people whose hearts prompt them to render such as- sistance Is greater every year.

OPERATIONS NOT AL WAYS

Doctors Frequently Mistaken.

T suffered untold agony with piles for over three years. Two doctors told me nothing but an operation would cure me. 1 tried different rem edies. but nothing did me any good until I used Pyramid Pile Cure. l bought six fifty cent boxes at the drug store, and now l can do my work and go out, where before l spent most of my time lying down. thank God for giving the discoverer the knowl- edge to make such a cure. l recom- mend it to all my friends and 1T ever have the piles again will certainly use this remarkable remedy. You can use this in any way you wish to make known this wonderful merit of Pyra- mid Pile Cure" Mrs. Wm. Mucky, 81 Marshall Street, Elizabeth, N.
 The experience of this lady is that oF thousands of others who have been assured that nothing short of an op- eration would rid them of this dis dressing complaint. On the face of it, 1t appears as if too many surgeons operate in order that they may keep their hand in, and lose no portion of their skill; then, again too many sur geons are anxious to experiment (like inc scientific man in Mark Twains pathetic story of the dog and her little puppy). and do not have proper regard for a patients physical welfare or condition.
 We advise every sufferer to think twice before submitting to an opera tion for piles. and suggest that those interested write to the Pyramid Drug Co, Marshall Mich, for their little book on the causes and cure of piles, which Is sent free for the asking.

I am at your mercy, but by the holy smoke, If am bitten by that snake will Kill you and your old snake. Now. take that box out of here" and the old man picked up a hatchet and got behind barrel.
 Well, wouldn't that skin you" said the boy, as he sharpened his knife on piece of old cheese, and felt of the edge. Here you have been telling me for years what brave man you were and how you were not afraid of anything that wore hair, and now you have fits because little five-foot rat tlesnake, with only ten rattles on, makes a formal call on you. Gee, but you are a squaw. Why, there Is no danger in the bite of a rattlesnake, since science has taken the matter up. All you got to do, when a snake bites you, and you begin to turn black. Is to drink a couple of quarts of whisky and bind a poultice of limberger cheese on the wound. and go to bed for a week or ten days, and you come out all right" and the bad boy began to cut the string.

ON THE SAFETY OF OVER
 EATING.
The Rule of Choosing the Lesser of Two Evils Applies to the Way
 You Eat.

want to know how a man Is to know when he has had enough?
 The Pilgrim Fathers, I believe, had A quaint saving to the effect that you should always rise from the table feeling as if you could eat some more. But the question is. how much more?
 Just when to stop?
 That's the point.
 The rule is wrong, because it's no rule at all.
 It is inexact and unscientific.
 It Is likely to lead to the dangerous habit of eating too little.
 And eating too 1ittle-or digesting too little, which amounts to the same thing-is the cause of nine-tenths of the disease from which humanity suf- fers today
 What Is the disease?
 It is simply uneven balance between waste and repair.
 Some organ lacks etrength to carry on the special work for which 1t was created.
 Where shall it find the strength it lacks?
 Ten thousand times, NO!
 Better die than become a hopeless drug fiend.
 No: in food.
 But" you say, T eat a plenty of good food every day"
 True, dear friend; but you don't digest it.
 And food. undigested, is mere pois- on.
 So, to make food do you good. you must take Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. The. great thing about Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets is, that their action does not depend upon stimulative druggery. f-
 They cannot create a habit.
 They contain no ingredients to "pick-you- up," tone your nervous sys- tenn" or furnish whip energy, by call ing out your vital reserve force.
 They create new strength, force and energy-Out of your Food.
 If taken starving, they will do you no good at all.
 So. eat to live, and live to eat, with stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
 The curse of our present civiliza- ton Is exhaustion.
 And exhaustion, whether of brain, nerves. physical strength. or vital force. is caused by starvation.
 Of two evils, it is better to overeat (snd prevent indigestion with Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets), than to rise from the table, not having eaten enough to repair the exhaustion of your vital forces.
 For exhaustion of starvation leads to the most varied forms of sickness ar disease. brought on by inability of inc weakened vitality to counteract the disease-poisons, and microbes.
 Whereas the well-efd and well-nour- isbed person, without ever feeling the worse for it. can expose himself to dangers, the mere thought of which would drive the weak, starvling dys- nantic into a panic fit.
 Good food, well digested, is the great secret of a healthful existence here on earth
 So eat heartily. every day. of the hest food you can get, and regulate the working of your digestive machin- erv with Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets.
 As a result. you will be astonished to find how much stronger and livelier vou feel, how much more and better work you can do. how much more n,easure you will get out of life, and how your old enemy, that chronic trouble which has fastened upon your weak spot, wherever 1t is, will up and away, and ever after leave you in neace. health and comfort.
 There's more truth than poetry in all this.

He was waiting for a cus- toner to come in and buy something to start the days business. He had sprinkled the floor. and swept the dirt up in corner and he was sleepy.

THE TWENTIETH
 CENTURY COLLEGE
A Chat with the President of the Chicago University About New
 Movements in Education.

Copyright 1904, by Frank c. Carpen-
 ter.)
 Chicago. It was at the Union Club here that I met Dr.. William R. Harper, President of the University of Chicago, and chat tedswith him about the twentieth cen tury college. Dr. Harper is at the head of our modern educators. He is the President of the youngest and most aggressive of our universities, an in- stitution which within less than a dozen years has acquired an endow- ment of eleven million dollars which has thousands of students from every part of the United States, and which has made itself felt in almost every part of the educational world.
 4 Strenuous Educator.
 Dr. Harper is a type of the strenu- ousness of our modern times. He was only -35 years old when he became President of the Chicago University He was only 14 when he graduated from the Muskingum College, and only 19 when he took his degree of doctor of philosophy at Yale. He was made a D. D. by Colby University at S5 and IL. D. by Yale in 1901. He began his work as a tutor in a Tennessee college
 
 the Baptist Theological Seminary here. At 30 he was professor of Semitic lam guages at Yale. and he took the same professorship at Chicago when he &C., cepted the presidency of the university. In addition to this, Dr. Harper has been a member of the Chicago Board of Education, and has also written large number of educational and clas- sicai works. including text books of Greek, Hebrew and Latin, so that his experience especially fits him to dis cuss the educational movements of the day.
 The Twentieth Century College. My first question was as to the twentieth century college: whether it is an improvement over the colleges of the past, and whether the study of the classics Is needed to equip our young men for the business life of today.
 Said pr. Harper: Theestwentieth century college will be much better equipped than the college of the past. It will have a better library, better fa- ciIities for physical culture. and above all better facilities for the study of science. We have now many thousand high schools which are better equipped in such particulars than were the ma tority of our colleges thirty years ago. This will compel the college of the future to. make itself stronger along
