friends of Norwich University are
greatly Interested. The bill for sew

| The committee manifested good deal
OF interest in the bill, and it is hoped that

Chinese Constitution.

Chlna's proposed new constitution
has been proclaimed to the people.
While it Is open to much criticism
from the Western viewpoint 1t Is such
an enormous advance in China that
its defects may be overlooked. In
any event, 1t is only beginning and
II brought into successful operation
1t will be improved by the most pa
tient people on earth.
It Is remarkable that the granting
of this constitution is the voluntary
act Of the Chinese rulers. That nine
years Is given for its gradual intro
duction is characteristic Of the Chi
nese Empire. A Nation that has en-
dured for so many centuries as China
need not be in haste to change its
governmental forms.
But of one thing we may be sure.
The Constitution in China Is the be-
ginning of a new era, In which Occi-
dental civilization shall have larger
part. The awakening has begun. We
may not anticipate duplication of
Japanese developments, for the Chi
nese nature differs in important par
ticulars, but we may expect ss
wonderful metamorphosis, with more
faithfulness in copying the American
model.-Pittsburg Dispatch.

Tax on Cats.

1t is really difficult to understand
why the cats have escaped their
share of public responsibility. Few
thinkers will dispute the statement
that such animals are entirely too
numerous. The weil-fed, well-groom-
ed cat, that stays at home and attends
to its knitting by the family hearth
Is not a menace to the public well
fare, but who will defend the sad
eyed tomcat with the tragic voice
that sings wild dirges at dreary mid
nights cherries hour? And his
name is legion.
One cat of that description is a
greater nuisance than dozen dogs.
And it may also be said of the cat
that 1t is born thief and porch
climber, and it is also a vehicle for
disease germs and many other things
which are unpleasant If cats were
taxed. the useful ones would survive
and the masterless ones would have
to die the death; and there are few
who will argue that such a consum-
nation is not devoutly to be wished
for.-Emporia Gazette.

SMART GIRLS.

The boys of this country must rot
get the idea that they are the only
smart things in it. There is a girl in
Mississippi who lost both hands three
years ago, but has learned to do good
typewriting with her toes. There is
girl in Ohio with wooden foot
who plays football and runs races
and beats all the boys.
In Wisconsin girl of twelve years
of age swan a horse across a river
and saved passenger train from
disaster. Michigan has girl of
fourteen who can do any sum in
mathematics you give her and not
be over ten seconds about it. Penn
sylvania has one of eleven years who
can learn and repeat any chapter In
the Bible in twenty minutes.
Delaware has miss, now sixteen
years old, who went into the grocery
business when she was only ten, and
at the present date she is making
$4,000 a year, and Connecticut has
one of fifteen who has traded horses
and got the best of it over forty
times.
The American boy is pretty cute,
but the American girl isn't going to
be left very far behind in the race

Rheumatism Prescription.

The increased use OF whiskey for
rheumatism Is causing considerable
discussion among the medical frater-
nifty. 1t is an almost infallible cure
when mixed with certain other ingre-
dlents and taken properly. The fol-
lowing formula is effective: "To one
half pint of good whiskey add one
ounce of Toris Compound and one
ounce of Syrup Sarsaparilla Com
pound. Take In tablespoonful doses
before each meal and before retiring. 4"
Toris Compound is product of the
laboratories of the Globe Pharma-
ceutical Co., Chicago, but 1t as we'll as
the other ingredients can be had from
any good druggist.

A LITTLE GIRLS FEAT.

Little Miss Evelyn Albee, of Alma
Centre, may deservedly be called a
heroine. A few days ago, while play
ing near an open well, she accident
ally stepped in. The well was eigh-
teen feet deep, with six feet of water.
Her playmate heard the splash. but
was too frightened to call for assist
ance. Miss Evelyn, who is not six
years old yet, was equal to the occa-
sion and clambered to the top, unaid-
ed and unharmed "How did she do
it?" is the general question asked,
but no one but the lady herself
knows, and she wishes to forget it.
That she wasn't hurt in some way
was truly remarkable. - Kennebec

INvENTs YOUTH MACHINE
After Forty Years Study Physician
at Seventy-sIx Restores Youth
and vIuor,

Sir James Grant of Canada, who
delivered the closing address AT the
meeting of the British association, is
seventy-six years old, but has all the
vigor of man of fifty.
1t Is a remarkable fact that Sir
James, for many years the most ia
nous of Canadian doctors, attributes
his own recovery of youth to a sim
pie and ingenious little machine
which, after forty years Of expert
ment, he discovered last year. He
delivered a full account of 1t to the
psychological section.
The instrument, called a neuros
trone, for which the electrical force
is provided by dry cell, acts direct
ly on the inactive center5, which be
come largely poisoned by noxious
gases as people grow older Clean
ing them out by electricity in conse
quence adds new vigor to the system
and greatly lengthens the span Of
life.
In his own case Sir James SAID
that he had been enabled to give III
spectacles, which he had used for c
generation, as we'll as to increase
general activity by means of his in
strument. The discovery is the frs
successful application of electricity

To Wash Ponuee,

To launder pongee silk and keep it
from spotting, wash as follows: Make
good suds with any good soap, wash
gently with the hand, and then rinse
in luke-warm water. Press, not
wiring, the water out; then, when
nearly dry, iron with a moderately
hot iron, and the silk will look new,
while If dampened in the usual way
after the silk has dried, 1t turns very

Baseball and Politics.

To speak of the general enthusiasm
of the country over baseball would
be mere repetition Of what was said
when the two leagues were having
their final battles for the penants last
week. 1t is worth a moments at

that five games of baseball In
worlds championship series, at grand
opera prices for admission, played in
two cities, have brought gross receipts
in excess of 100000. If money talks.

recently a game that is enjoying
great popularity among them. A
coin is placed on crack in the side
walk and the two players stand OPP
posite each other and at an equal dis
tance from the crack, usually upon
tie St one. A rubber ball is then
aimed and thrown at the coin and
caught on the bounce by the oppos-
ing player. The coin, or its equiva-
lent, becomes the possession of the
player hitting it. 1t is gambling

what gives it the vogue it enjoys

ASTONISHED THE DOCTOR
Old Lady Got Well With Change OF

A great scientist has said we can
put off "old age" If we can only nour-

To do this the right kind of food,
Of course, is necessary. The body
manufactures poisons in the stomach
and intestines from certain kinds OF
food stuffs and unless sufficient of the
right kind is used, the injurious ele-

her stomach for more than few min

''Sh- began Grape-Nuts with only a
teaspoonful. AS that did not distress
her and as she could retain 1t, she
took little more until she could take
all of four teaspoonfuls at a meal.
"Then she began to gain and grow
strong and her trouble in the stomach
was gone entirely. She got to enjoy
good health for one SO old, and we

BOBBY'S EXCHANGES.
I wish I owned a motor.car-a slashing
big red. dragon,
I'd swap it in a minute for a handsome
horse and wagon.
And then I'd take that horse and cart, de-
laying not a minute,
And swap 'em for a new canoe with nice
soft cushions in it.
And then I'd take that new canoe-I

And swap it for puppy dog with man.
ners fine and sniffy.
And then I'd take that sniffy dog for fear
that I'd be bitten,
And swap it off with someone who pre-
ferred it to kitten.
And then I'd take that kitty-cat and sell
it for quarter,
The which I'd swap for one big pail of 6zzy
soda water.
