A GREAT INSTITUTION.

1t is unusual that Il single institution in q
city of 5000 people will overshadow In i'm
portance every Other interest, but such is
the case with the American School of
Osteopathy, and A. I. Still Infirmary at
kirksville, Mo.
stranger in Kirksville is Immediately
impressed with the idea that the town is
sustained by this institution. in fact,
kirksvilie has been made what it is to-day
by DIR. Still and his famous School and
lntirmary. 1t is the largest patronIzed un-
endowed institution of its kind in the
United States.
DIR. Stills school enrolls over 200 students
yearly and each student is required to at
tend four terms OF five months<each before
completing the course of study There are
over 1000 graduates and they are prac-
tlcing in every state and territory of the
Union. About tvo-thirds of the states
have passed special laws legaliziug the
science
This school teaches every branch taught
in medical colleges except drugs" and
osteopathy il substituted for that. SO
thorough is the teaching in anatomy that
over one hundred human bodies are dis
sected yearly by the students.
At the lnfirmary, patients from every
part or the country and with almost every
form Of disease are constantly under treat
meut. For the past fifteen years almost
every train coming to Kirksville has
brought some new sufferer hoping to find re-
lief by tho science of Osteopathy. BY the
thousands who have left the institution
benefited by the treatment, the science has
been heralded to the world rs n safe and
rational method OF cure. Several years ago
free clinic was established in connection
with the practice department of the school
and this is still in operation. Hundreds of
the worthy poor, who are unable to pay for
treatment, are treated every afternoon by
the senior students free of charge.

count of the progress of the race in
that state:
"One Of the most conspicuous fea-
lures OF the negro problem in Missis-
slppi Just now is the tendency of the
members Of the race to patronize
business enterprises conducted by
members of their own color. This
tendency is enjoying a phenomenal
growth in all parts OF the state, and
its growth is being greatly accelerated
by the fact that the negroes were
never so progressive as now, and
more Of them are launching in busi-

This idea of the domestic hearth
about which the family gathers after
dinner to crack jokes and nuts. is all
right in story books. but the average
man prefers den where he may
hibernate. Sometimes he wants his
wife and his children in his den and
sometimes he does not. The den be
ing strictly his, he feels free to insist
on isolation when the spirit moves
him. Here he can read or write in
peace. without listening to comment
on news and events already familiar
or of non-interest. What We need in
every home, brethren. is den,
even though it does make us bit
more selfish. 1t is conducive to hap.
piness and to intellectually. Let
