Since such a medium
in Bengal is the Bengali, a

reason why Bengali should not

might suggest that English may
be suitable medium, but it is
open to two serious objections:
English, being a foreign Ian
suage, can never be the nation
al language of India, and it is
simply folly to adopt such a
language as a medium of higher
learning which can never be
understood by the common peo-
pie and by women folk who form
tnlly one-half of our nation.
Another objection to the use OF

At the Fairmount Grange Hall,

An interesting and very profit
able Parents, Teachers and Off

rendered recitation by Miss Caro-
line Luther. The regular pro-
gram for the day was then taken
up. The first topic, "The Re-
lation of Good Literature to Good
Citizenship" was ably discussed
by Rev. F. w. Launer, of
Albany. Mr.. Launer said, "Show
me the books and papers your boy
reads and I will show you your
boy" He emphasized the ne
cessity of surrounding the child
at home and school with good
literature on account of its i'm
portant bearing on his future good
citizenship. The discussion was
continued by Supt. Jackson, of
Lima, Prof. Hayes, of Albany,
and Prof. Leatherman and others.
'The Compulsory Law of Edu-
cation was introduced by Mr..

the parents standpoint, and Mr..

directors duty towards enforcing
it. Prot. Hayes, and others, con-
tinued the discussion.
The history of the American
flag was read by Mrs. Shannon,

preparationssfor which had been
made BY the good ladies of the
vicinity for the occasion, an
abundant supply of the very best
that the land afforded was pro-
vided, and for an hour everybody
had a splendid social time.
At 1::3o the exercises of the
afternoon began with the singing
of several familiar school and
national airs, this was followed
by a recitation by John Hale, en-
titled '.John's History Lesson, "
in which all the principal events

OLD INDIAN SPRING.
At jamestown Exposition From Which
Powhatan and Pocahontas Drank.

On the grounds of the jamestown Elk
position on the shore of Hampton Roads
near Norfork, Virginia, there is a pre-
historic spring of great interest. 1t Is pre-
historic because neither the memory OF
man nor the records of history run back
to a time when it was not there. That
the GRIM powerful and diplomatic old
Chief Powhatan drank of its waters is
certain. and it is much more than
probable that his beautiful daugh-
ter, the gentle Pocahontas, often
quenched her thirst from its clear
and cool depths. Captain John Smith
must have often stopped there when
going and coming on many of his local
voyages of exploration Had we no other
evidence we should know that the Indians
made it a place of rendezvous from the
fact that arrow heads and other Indian
implements are occasionally found there
to the present day.
Visitors to the Exposition will find the
spring near the Arts and Crafts village.
1t is situated on Lovers Lane" at the
end of the corduroy bridge back of the
Pocahontas Hospital. A tablet has been
placed over the spring which bears the
following legend:
This spring was used by the Chesa-
peake tribe OF Indians long before the

There was found near 1t stone NOR
tar and pestle used for crushing corn;
also several pieces of pottery.

in their unmistakable hardships. We over
look the narrowness and bigotry which
cast its cloud over their inherent great
ness of character We realize that they
could not see as clearly we do after
centuries spent in eliminating prejudice
and ignorance.
In the crystal waters of this spring we
read the realities of those early days.
From the crucible of the time into which
were cast a heterogeneous mass of men

Draws Line at Indiana.

From thee Chicago Chronicle.
An old Indian from the southwest has
been in Washington for while and
spends good deal of his time in the
Senate gallery. He seemed to pay special
attention to Senators Spooner, Teller and
Beverldge. The other day he felt that
he ought to express his thoughts to some
one, so he picked out Captain Riley, the
veteran who runs the elevator 'Senat he

vator got to the bottom of the shaft on

sentence ready. He said: "Senat Bev,
not worth cuss," and stalked away
gravely.

MIRACULOUS CURE OF THROAT
AND LUNG TROUBLES AT IS

Col. r. C. Hutchinson, of Chattanooga,
Tenn, amazed at his almost mirac.
ulous return to health after seven
years of suffering from throat and
lung troubles, extoIs Dufy's Pure
Malt Whisky, which cured him
when remedies usually prescribed
for aryneits and bronchitis had
failed.
This brave and popular soldier, who
Is we'll known and universally liked
throughout the South, expresses in
writing the praiseworthy desire to
meet face to face every one of his
age in order to tell each personally
the great benefit he has derived
from his judcious use of Duffy's.
Colonel Hutchisons letter reads as fol-
lows: Il am 50 years old today, and I
wish | could come face to face with ev-
eryone of my age In this country. I
could give them an account of sickness
dispelled and health restored which is
little short of a miracle. For more than
seven years I was subject to all manner
of throat and lung troubles, and there
was scarcely a day that I could leave
my bed or reclining chair. My good old
doctor, who has been a lifelong friend
recommended Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey
when the remedies usually prescribed for
laryngitis and bronchitis failed. AS you
may imagine, the diseased condition
was chronic by this time, I have
taken Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey now

The cause of poor milk in cafes is at
tributed principally to one thing, namely,
the habit of letting milk stand in the
ice box till the cream has risen and then
slkimmng il off and using the cream for
coffee and other purposes, so when the
consumer asks for a glass of milk he
gets what is left after the fat is taken
from it, This is a fraudulent practice
because it is robbng the consumer of
what he pays for.
The majority of milk sold TO these
places is above the city standard. but
many of them desire a cheap milk and
do not care where it comes from or what
the quality of it is as long as it looks like
milk and has the color of milk. Dairy
men cannot afford to sell a first-class
milk at second-class price, and when
people want cheap milk they are
tempted to add skim milk to it or else
extract some of the cream from it, as the
latter has always a demand. and in this
way they can make up for the deficiency
in the price of milk
Pure milk is what we need in Birmng-
ham. and we will not get it until we give
UP these old-time methods of delivering
It. I mean by that, the practice of
peddling milk from cans through a faucet
Milk for retail trade should be delivered
in bottles, and why-because 1t has three
sources of contamination The milk may
leave the farm in a practically pure con-
dition, and is brought to town and carried
through the dusty streets. The dairyman
draws the milk through the faucet of
his milk can, the faucet becomes wet
and the dust of the street sticks to 1t
and the next customer gets the contents
of the faucet. which is laden with dust
and germs of the street. Then. again,
the milk is exposed to the dust while
being drawn; then. again, it is carried
through the street to the house and
poured into pitcher. The dairyman goes
to his wagon, puts his wet measure In
the bottom, where it collects the dust as
he drives along and the measure Is visited
