Where lt Hurt Most.

Young gentlemen" said the college
president, Notwithstanding the fact
chat he was addressing the students,
young gentlemen, hazing must be
stopped and stopped at once. 1t has
injured the college more than any
of you ever could guess. Only last
week a gentleman declined to give
us 100000 because there was SO
much hazing. Hazing is bad thing
financially"
How about morally?" asked the
student
"Aw-aw, really, there may be some.
thing in that, but-aw-the-the point
has never. come up, and I-aw-am
not prepared to answer. But the point
Is worth considering Jour
nal.

COFFEE THREsHED HER.
IS Long Years.

"For over fifteen years." writes q
patient, hopeful little Ills. woman,
while a coffee drinker, 1 suffered
from Spinal Irritation and Nervous
trouble. I was treated by good physi-
clans, but did not get much relief.
never suspected that coffee might
be aggravating my condition. I was
downhearted and discouraged, but
prayed daily that might find some
thing to help me.
Several years ago while at q
friends house. 1 drank cup Of Post
am and thought 1 had never tasted
anything more delicious.
From that time on I used Postum
instead Of coffee, and soon began to
improve in health, so that now I can
walk half a dozen blocks or more with
ease, and do many other things that
l never thought / would be able to
do again in this world.
MY appetite is good, / sleep wen.
and find life worth living, indeed. A
lady of my acquaintance said she did
not like Postum, it was so weak and
tasteless.
II explained to her the difference
when 1t is made right-boiled accord
ing to directions. She was glad to
know this because coffee did not agree
with her. Now her folks say they ex.
pect to use Postum the rest Of their
lives" Name given by Postum Co.

long, and in its close vicinity were FIVE
or six small muggers, looking like q
bodyguard. was afterward told by
an old Cawnpore resident that they
actually act as such, and give warn
Ing of any approaching danger to their

Topeka, kans., March 2. = Bills

topeka, kans., March z. - Bills
making appropriations for the MAIN
tenance of the various state institu1
tons were considered and passed by
the house during the day. The bills
had been advanced on the calendar
by the revision committee last night
and were ready for action today.
Nearly all of the bills passed were
senate measures which had been
slightly changed in the house ways
and means committee.
Only two of the bills met with
any opposition. They were those
making an appropriation for the
maintenance of the state agricul-
tural college and for buildings at
the state manual training normal
school. The opposition to the agri-
cultural college bill came from Ryan,
of Brown, and Brown, of Harper.
They wanted the maintenance APP
preparation for the institution re-
duced by about one-fourth. They
were opposed by every man on both
sides of the house who can talk, and
many participated whose oratorical
ability was greatly limited. All of
the speakers wanted the agricultural
college to have the fund it had
asked and the vote on the amend
ment was unanimous for the ap-
preparation as it had come from
the ways and means committee.
There was no opposition to the
other measures. Those considered
and passed on third reading with
the appropriations they carried,
were as follows:
State agricultural college. 1908,

Topeka, kans., March q. = What
may be a death blow to anti-pass
legislation at the present session of
the legislature was dealt in the
house this afternoon when that body
refused to advance the senate anti
pass bill from the bottom of the cal
endar, where it is now situated.
The house passed the Stone bill,
stringent measure, three weeks ago,
but the senate sent back the Getty
bill as substitute. The house has
baked at the substitution and the
Getty measure is now buried by
scores of other bills. Unless it is
advanced there is no chance of the
house reaching it before adjourn
ment. The leaders of the anti-pass
movement hope to have the meas
ure advanced tomorrow, as many
members were not present when the
vote was taken today.
The senate in committee of the
whole killed Senator Miller's bill
providing for the abolition of the
boards of regents of the various
state educational institutions and ap,
d
of three men to have full control Of
all of the institutions. A motion to
strike out the enacting. clause car
rfed by vote of fifteen to sixteen;
several of the senators not voting.
Senator Carver's bill authorizing
the governor to appoint his execu-
tive clerk as assistant private secre-
tary at an increased salary Of $500
per year and to appoint a confiden-
tial stenographer and assistant exc
cutive clerk at salary of $500
was reported for passage by the
committee of the whole. The bill
also carries with it the report to ap-
point filling and recording clerk
at salary of $1,000 per year.
The prospects for an agreement
on maximum freight rate measure
are considered favorable The bills,
there being two, one from the SEN
ate and another from the house, are
now in the hands of a conference
committee. The senate bill pro
vides for a horizontal reduction of
10 per cent on grain, while the house
bill provides for a reduction rate on
various classes of freight by a dis
lance schedule. fixing the rate at so

A Christian Life.

Thu Word of God teaches all
people how to live a Christian. /
Hence, in the first place we mist
understand His Word not only a
part Of 1t but all Of the Blessed
Word Of God. Man shall not
live by bread alone, but by every
Word that proceedeth out of the
mouth Of God. He has given us
this beautiful earth to dwell on,
and every thingunder the canopy
of heaven for our benefit and
pleasure has He placed here for
us and has given us the privilege
of choosing good or evil, pleasure
or trouble, filing ourselves for
heaven or hell.
Z But His desire il, that all may
be saved, and His Word teaches
MS how to be saved. We must
repent, turn from our evil way,
and give our heart and soul to
God; cleansing ourselves from
all filth of the flesh, cOnsecrate
ourselves holy unto the will of
God.
Then we will be fit temple for
His Holy spirit TO dwell in.
Then after we are Il fit temple
for His Holy spirit to dwell in,
He will pour out rich blessing
upon us.
But u Christian life does not
stop here, they must 80 on and
do the commandments that God
has laid down in His Blessed
Word to do.
/ They must take up their cross
and follow Him, through evil re
ports as well as good. Jesus
our Savior Settle example before
us, and sent Paul out to teach Tho
people.
Now I think it is the duty o.
every honest heart to study vel
what is laid down before you, q
to God in prayer, asking Him Il
give you wisdom and knowledg,
from on high that you may know
what portion belongs to you
There is no mysteries in tn,

first the kingdom Of God and
