A GREAT INSTITUTION.

Il is unusual that single institution In
city Of 900 people will 0vershadow 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.
impressed with the idea that the town Is
sustained by this institution, in fact,
Kirksyille has been made what it Is to-day
by Dr. Still and his famous School and
Infirmary 1t is the largest patronized I'M
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-
ticing in every state and territory OF the
Union. About two-thirds of the states
have passed special laws legalizing the
science.
This school teaches every branch taught
in medical colleges except drugs" ana
osteopathy is 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 mfirmary, patients from every
part OF the country and with almost every
form of disease are constantly under treat
ment. For the past fifteen years almost
every train coming to Kirksville has
brought some new sufferer hoping to find re-
lief by the science of Osteopathy. BY the
thousands who have left the institution
benefited by the treatment, the science mas
been heralded to the world as a 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 ior
treatment are treated every afternoon py
the senior students free Of charge.

Commercial Prosperity.

Commercially the year was one of
general prosperity for the whole OF tho
United States. Trade Of all kinds was
good. prices were maintained and COM
plants on the part Of business men
were infrequent. There was cessa-
ton in the formation OF gigantic trusts.
partly because some OF them had proved
failures so far as dividend paying was
concerned and partly because the anti
trust legislation of congress was feared
by the promoters. The decision against
the Northern Securities company was
affirmed by the United States supreme
court in March. putting an end to that
particular kind of combination. The
union of railroads in regard to rates was
the subject of much comment after the
presidents message TO congress was

A POLITE REQUEST.

In the suburbs of Baltimore there is
an ancient glue factory that at times
floods the surrounding scenery with an
odor strange and far from sweet. A
street railway line runs past the build
ing, and one day last summer when the
place was indulging in a wild outburst
of inglorious incense, an open car
passed, in one of the seats of which sat
an Irish laborer and middle-aged
lady. The Irishmans features ex-
pressed unutterable things and the
lady shifted diligently at bottle of
smelling salts. The car came to a
stop, the glue rioted worse than ever,
and the son of Erin could stand it no

CROCKETT AND THE MULES.

When Davy Crockett sat in the Ma
tional Legislature as a Representative
of the State of Texas he had many
clashes with men of more education
but less wit than himself. 1t is told of
him that one day while standing in
front of his hotel ON Pennsylvania ave-

the custody of an overseer from one of
the stock farms in Virginia. A Con-
gresham from Boston. who was stand
ing near by, attracted Crockett's at
tentlon to the unusual sight, saying:
Hello. there. Crockett; here's lot
of your constituents on parade. Where
are they going?"
The celebrated hunter looked at the
animals with a quizzical glance. and
then turning to the other said quietly.
but with great emphasis. "They are
going to Massachusetts to teach

An American schoolboy. says the
London Chronicle. has written an es-
say on the Merchant Of Venice" full
of original matter. This is his view Of
Portia: "Portia was kind and true
hearted young lady. She was very
good-natured. especially to some of her
gentleman friends. when those young
men was going to choose their collins"
But the gem of the article relates to
Shakespeare himself. "The story was
written by Shakespeare. who married
Hiawatha. He was born in Venice,
where he and the merchant shot ar
rows of the same fly when boys. 1t
was here that he learned to season
mercy with justice" Anna Hathaway
