BUSINESS COLLEGE NOTES.

Prof. Moothart has received letter
from j. Clyde Elders, Manager of the
Athletic Association of the Cape Girar-
deau Normal School, 10 which Mi.
Elders offers TO date he Moothart Col
lege football team on his fall schedule.
As might be presumed, our students
feel highly complimented at this recoS-
milton, coming from the State School
that won the championship Of the
State Nurmals last fall. Ii may be in
order to say that since our institution
is recognized by the State Normal
school lin athletics) that it seems
strange indeed that our athletic stand
ing in Pennington does not seem to be
sufficient CD to meet the requirements
OF local institution which has thus
far refused TO play our teams, ON the
gridiron or diamond, when other
schools and colleges of superior rank
in the scholastic and collegiate world
are pleased to recognize us. Further
comment is unnecessary. The I'M.
preiudiced will read between the lines
Rev. Hickok, on Tuesday morning,
gave us the first of series of prac.
teal talks, to be delivered by the
ministers, professional aud business
men of Pennington. His remarks
were based on the theme, "Beine
Faithful in Business. He fOrcibly
illustrated the three classes or grades
of employees. First, the one that does
Just as little as possible in order tc
hold his job or position and draw sal
AIRY regularly; second, the one which
is thoroughly honest but virtually de-
termined TO not give a minute cxtri
time to his employer, because he viii

strictly honorable and right, and third
/ the one who has at all times thu

ness and work at heart, occasionally
studying the work of other depart
menls and other employees. It is cvi

promotion from time to time. 1t
brief, the talk was 4 very cNcr!rn
one, aud these few comments fat! lal
short Of doing it justice.
The class in letter writing, or bust
ness correspondence, began it, woll
Monday of this week. Nearly every
member of the school has enrolled il
this class, as it is considered ono o
the most practical subjects in on
curriculum.

satisfactorily.

terspersed with music rendered by
Messrs. Preston Byington and Firman
Abduction. The program was opened
with "SOngs of Welcome" by the
school, followed by Rotations and
music. ALI taking part in the enter
tsinment are to be highly commended
for the man ner in which they delivered
their several parts, as all did remark
ably well.
The rendition of the musical comedy
Peter, Peter, Pumpkin Eater" by a
class of the small children, brought
forth the laughter of the audience.
The humorous speech reci;cd by Ken
net Byinglon, and also the play "What
Old Mrs. Ember Said acted by
Misses Bertha Thurman and Belle
Buchanan, and "The llypochondrlac'
Ia Walter Scott and Arthur Sigman,
were heartily cheered. The song OF
"Fuilh, Hope and Love-" by children
bearing the letters, was walmiy APP
plauded The duets by kcnnett and
Preston Byington were greatly enjoyed
BY all The farce, "Thc Last Day
of school," by Miss Sigman and her
school, was made very laughablc by
the bright and inappropriate replies OF
the pupils to the questions asked them
by the teacher and visitors.
Towards the close of the program,
which lasted about two hours, and was
greatly enjoyed by the audience from
start to finish, boxes were sold and
supper eaten, after which the school
sang the closing song Vacation, and
the audience left, bearing with them
only good wishes for the teacher, vino
had taken great pains in saining the
children for the occasion.

A Friend In Need.

There is q certain feeling of immu-
nity from hardships and suffering,
coupled with the knowledge that q
true, reliable friend is always neal at
hand and able to serve. And when
such q friend is needed, what a boon to
the unfortunate to be able to command
this service without delay.
The most common emergencies re-
quiring speedy relief occur about the
home. Some member of the family,
suddenly taken with sever headache
or earache, cries for relief; an ugly
'bruise or sprain needs attention. Ev-
cry sympathizer has a remedy to offer,
but none Of them are reliable. The
injury does not justify the expense of
calling q doctor, and perhaps q doctor
is not nearby. What is to be done?
Every home should be supplied with
q bottle of Andes Great Oil for imme-
diate application. 1t is the one sbso-
lutely reliable friend in all such emer-
gencies.
Andes Great Oil is unfailing and
speedy in Its results. The severest
case of cramps or collie is relieved in
five minutes by taking 20 to 80 drops
In a half glass of water. Headaches,
earaches and toothaches are relieved in
one to three minutes, and the most
painful sprains, bruises or swellings
are reduced with a single application.
It is wonderfully penetrating, but new
er blisters. Rheumatic pains in any
part Of the body are promptly reliev-
ed, and it will supple q drawn muscle or
stiff joint like magic. So positive is
the relief afforded by Andes Great
Oil that it is nothing but recklessness
not to keep it constantly on hand. 1t
is ever ready to afford relief from suf-
fering.
Go to G. A. Milford, Abbeville, S.
c., and get a trial bottle at once. You
will never be without it in your home
again. Price fifty cents per bottle, or
three for $1.25. There will be many a
tortuous hour of suffering, and per-
haps a doctors bill saved if you will
keep Andes Great Oil in your home.

The Limit Of Life.

The most eminent medical scientists
are unanimous in the conclusion that
the generally accepted limitation OF
human life Is many years below the
attainment possible with the advanced
knowledge of which the race is now
possessed. The critical period, that de-
termines its duration, seem to be be-
tween so and 90; the proper care of the
body during this decade cannot be too
strongly urged; carelessness then be-
ing fatal to longevity. Natures best
helper after so is Electric Bitters, the
scientific tonic medicine that revival
ICES every organ of the body. Gusran'

KELSEY
 RECEIVERSHIP

Albany, N. Y., May 25.--The report of the referee in the case of Super intendent Otto Kelsey came up today for confirmation. The report is made by w. M. K. Olcott, who has been referee in the case. There is a sharp fight over the matter as Kel- sey's account has been charged with
 the sum of $3,131.50 and interest for about six years, representing assets in Virginia for which it was de-
 clared that Russell s. Johnson, formerly counsel for the receiver, had failed to account, and for which
 Mr. Kelsey, as receiver, was to be held responsible. MT. Kelsey and his
 counsel both filed affidavits saying
 that they had no knowledge of such
 assets. Kelsey said he had to rely upon clerks in this receiyership, as he had many lines of business to look /, after and so knew nothing about the matter. AS Kelsey is involved in tbe controversy with the governor, there ! is string of political twang to the case, and it excites great interest ill , political circles.

 This is just now the strategic moment, owing to the fact that a law has been passed reorganizing. reforming and, in many respects, putting upon sopnder basis the consular service of the United States. The present law will inev- tabiy work i'll the direction of pro viding trained consular service; but to carry this idea out to an ad- equate and desirable extent it will be necessary to have some center where these men may be properly trained. At present no such center exists in this country. In such a school of politics and diplomacy located in Washington, would be found the ideal place to acquire this particular training' e-'=AE%
 It would appear at first glance that Prof. James is visionary in en- tertaining the belief that the uni versity would have such decided effect upon Congress and the Ad. ministration. Prominent educators and a number of statesmen, how ever, point out that already the George Washington University is so closely affiliated with the gov ernment by reason of the fact that it counts as members of it's faculty a large number of government scientists, that it has demonstrated its usefulness to the Administra- tlon. This usefulness is seen most plainly in the adoption by the gov ernment of scientific discoveries made in the universitys laborator- 1es and in the development of it's scientists along new lines.
