at his wife. Both women nodded and
the conductor called: "All aboard"
Mr.. Ramsdale hurriedly kissed his
wife and swung on the step. His wife
waved her hand and as she turned
away laughed out loud.
Mr.. Ramsdale entered the sleeping
car, behind the porter and his first
glance was towards the girl that his
wife had recognized.
She was dressed entirely in black,
which suited her dark beauty, big
picture hat on her head and long
black gloves seemed to complete her
costume
Very pleased that he could use his

Eleventh Annual Commence
ment Attracts Hundreds of
Visitors to Pullman. 4

The eleventh annual commencement
day exercises held Thursday brought
to close year of unparalleled sue
cess and growth at the Washington
State College, class of So of the
states brightest young men and wo-
men being presented with the parch-
ment that was the certificate of duties
we'll performed, the completion of the
prescribed course of study that a
thoughtful and generous common
wealth has provided for its youth.
The graduating exercises of the
schools were held Tuesday evening, an
exceptionally large class having COM
pleted the work preparatory to en-
trance to the Freshman class, and re-
ceived diplomas from the hands of
Pres. Bryan after long program of
orations, musical selections, etc.
There were also six graduates from
the School of Business.
Wednesday afternoon the band con-
cert attracted hundreds to the armory,
and in the evening Stevens Hall was
brilliant with the throng that gathered
to participate in the president re-
ception.
The graduating exercises proper oc-
CURED Thursday. when the fifty-three
who had come to the end of the college
course were granted the degrees and
diplomas that represented so much to
them.
President Oscar j. Craig, of the
University Of Montana, delivered the
address to the graduating classes. In
part, he said:
In the present age, power comes
from the application of knowledge. not
from merely acquiring it. 1t is pos
sible for the human mind to grasp the
profoundest learning, yet be absolutely
destitute of power. The world cares
nothing about your ancestors, or per-
sonal history. 1t wants to know that
you are honest, reliable and to be
trusted. Whether your father wrote
a book, or your grandfather was the
hero of hundred battles, matters not ::
the world merely asks what you can
do.

Washington State College Closes Year
OF Unparalleled Success

In closing the program, President
Bryan said:
/'I think it would be fitting upon
this occasion that l should publicly
thank the State of Washington for the
generous support givent to the institu-
tion at the last session of the legisla-
ture. The appropriations then granted
to the State College, of larger sums
than usual for the carrying on of it's
work, and the providing of additional
buildings. was matter of interest to
the college, and the people of the
state. The increased efficiency which
this liberal support will give the col
lege, will enable the institution to
labor with gratifying results in behalf
of the agricultural and industrial COM
munities of the State of Washing ton. "
The graduates from the various de-
partments, with the subject of the
thesis prepared. were as follows:

NUMBER 80
TO AID TYPEwRITING STUDENTS

Professor W. N. Phillips, in charge
OF the Business Department of the Ell
ementary Science school of the State
College, has invented a device which
Will considerably lessen the task Of
learning to manipulate typewriter.
The fact that each finger of the hand
is used for certain keys of a typewrit-
er, and the difficulty which the student
has in learning to strike the right kew
with the proper finger, is the basis of
Mr.. Phillips invention. He has taken
an ordinary standard keyboard and
colored the keys in rows diagonally
crossing the keyboard. The KEYS in
row across the keyboard which are
operated by the forefnger of the right
hand are colored blue; those operated
by the forefinger of the left hand, red.
and thus on for each finger.
Mr. Phillips says his invention is
of considerable Importance. He as
serts that his students will learn the
keyboard by the colors and that they
VIII individualize the keys from the
separate rows of blue, green, yellow,
or whatever color may be used; that
they will be less apt to become con-
fused, or to get their fingers tangled
up, which is really serious matter
for beginners in stenography. The
progress made by students of the State
College school of business who have
used the colored keyboard, has. Mr..
Phillips says, demonstrated to him the
practicability of his invention, and
next year it will be installed as one of
the methods of his department.

Nervous
 Indigestion

The action of diges- ton is controlled by nerves leading to the stomach. When they are weak, the stomach is de- prived of its energy. It has no power to do it's work. If you want per manent relief, you must restore this energy. pr. Miles Nervine restores nervous energy, and gives the organs power to per form their functions.
 For many years I was an acute sufferer from nervous indigestion; at times I was so Respondent life seemed almost burden. I tried all kinds of remedies and various physicians with little or no relief, until one night last summer I saw Dr. Miles Nervine ana Heart Cure advertised. I resolved to make one more trial which did in the purchase of one bottle of Nervine and one of Heart Cure. In a few days l began to feel better, which encour- aged me so much that I continued the medicine until I had taken more than dozen bottles. I am very much inn proved in every way; in body, mind and spirits since. l make a special point to recommend the medicine, ana l feel a sincere pleasure in knowing that several persons have been bene- hted through my -recOmmendatio tions."
