sent quarters was TO small and that
they could not accom- odate the
many students who desired admis
sioL and that they were compelled
10 deny several applicants this year,

their present plant here or move to
some other point. He asked the
cooperation OF the association and
pledged his word that be would do
all in his power to induce the board
to have the College remain here, il

or three thousand dollars.
After Rev. Bernards speech the
president called on several mem
bers, who spoke in favor OF the pro-

amount asked, as it seemed TO all
present that the sum asked for was
very small one considering the
amount pledged them by Evansville

Melchor, j. P. Huther, Jno. E.
McFall, A. B. Krempp and Phil J

Women Who Wear Well.

1t is astonishing how great change few
years OF married life will make in the appear
ance and disposition of many women. The
freshness, the charm, the briliance vanish
like the bloom from peach which is rudely
handled. The matron is only dim shadow,
faint echo Of the charming maiden. There
are two reasons for this change ignorance
and neglect. Few young women appreciate
the shock to the system through the change
which comes with marriage. Many neglect
to deal with the unpleasant drains which are
often consequent on marriage and mother.
hood, not understanding that this secret
diain is robbing the cheek of its freshness
and the form of its fairness. As surely as
the general health suffers when there is de-
rangement of the health of the delicate
womanly organs, so surely when these
organs are established in health the face and
form at once witness to the fact in renewed
comeliness. Half million women and
more have found health and happiness in the
use of DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. 1t

my astonishment that the czar found

Everybody who has been brought 'nto
personal contact with Gen. Kuropatkin
must acknowledge that 1t would b. diff

unruffled calm and serenity which sits
upon his features. His face bears the
unmistakable stamp of goodness, con-
sideration and self-control
At this moment he knows that all his
tactical and strategical NOV ements are
matters of history and will afford a sub

less eager students. But I am con-
vinced that even amid the thunder of
the cannon at Liaoyang he was pos
sessed of the same absolutely mistaken
calm with which he reviewed the Turko-
man militia on the plains outside OF
Askabad. Never has deprecatory word
been uttered about him bo hind his back
and never has Russian general been
regarded with crater confidence and
