TRANSFER TO ATHENS.
II was not untn after the battle of
Marathon that the stadium was built
at Athens, and the games transferred
TO that city. In the battle. when the
tide first turned IN favor of the Greeks.
Calonicus, the Heetest runner un Ter
the commands OF Mliades, was sent
AZ miles to Athens with the news for
the governor He ran the distance at
n rate OF over Is miles an hour, and
died of exhaustion right after delivering
the m sssage "Nyniktkuman,' which
means I'VE win" When Herodes At
ticos afterwards built the stadium and
the Pan-Athenian games began, this
Marathon run was put In as an event
e',an as 1t Is today in honor of the
great effort Of the Greek courier. In
1896 the event was won by Greek
named Louis. who did the distance In
hours. 55 seconds, and still lived.
RESTORATION OF STADIUM
The move to recreate the stadium
and the games was made by Ayerof, an
Egyptian merchant who had come Of
Greek parentage. He set aside 81 .000, 900
for replacing the lost blocks Of marble,
and making ready the stadium for the
modern games
The chief difference In the new and
old contests, according TO Mr.. Statha-
kos, is that today all the world Is asked
to compete. "The Greeks recognize no
'barbarians,' and" he added with
gentle compliment to his country, "this
Is because the ancient Greek spirit OF
culture, civilization and progress in
the arts has spread over the world, and
made all mankind brothers"
The government erected statute OF
Averof just outside the stadium, and
he is held In great honor, as are also

the crown prince while In Athens, and
are furnished all accommodations free

EUROPEAN AUTOS
NOW COPY AMERICAN.

Apparently the long awaited turning
of the tide has come. The automo-
bile makers of Europe have come face
to face with the realization that to keep
abreast of the times they must now
come to America for pointers on inn
provements.
In years past It has been candidly
admitted by American manufacturers
of motor cars that in their early days
they copied to some extent the work
of the men Of Europe. There was
excuse for this, but as soon as the
pioneers Of the industry on this side
had grounded themselves IN the funda-
mental principles OF construction the
copying ceased, The word was freely
given that with their characteristic
perseverance, progresslveness and abll-
ity 1t would not be long before the
balance would swing around the other
way, as It Is now seeming to do. Amer
lea would repay her debt by giving
the foreigners ideas in fair return for
those they had received In the begin

HOW to Break Up a Cold.

1t may be a surprise to many TO
learn that a severe cold can be com
pletely broken up in one or two days
time. To do this, however, prompt
action is necessary. The hrst symp-
toms of a cold are dry, loud cough,
a profuse watery discharge from the
nose, and thin, white coating on the
tongue. When Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is taken every hour on the
first appearance of these symptoms it
counteracts the effect of the cold and
restores the system to healthy con-
dition within day or two. For sale
