mates. did not rank high In class. As a result of his investigations. Prof Lowell announced at q recent Phi Beta Kappa dinner than the man who is a successful lawyer. teacher. rail- road president. banker or other par ticipant in the activities of the profess sionai and commercial world. Is he who made a record in scholarship at his college. He holds that ninety per cent of successful college graduates were conscientious students.
 Having solved this question. Prof. Lowell determined to trace the distin- guished athletes. the champions in track and water sports, the baseball and football stars the men whose ath- letIc distinction wins them the class day honors. This inquiry, he asserts. has established the fact that the great athletis do not as rule become the most successful men of affairs. Many of them. through the advertising of their feats, do not often secure a bet ter start than the more scholarly graduate, but Prof. Lowell says his statistics show that they do not make good as generally nor as decid- >edly as do the honor men in their classes. He finds larger proportion of failures in the class of great col- lege athletes than in any other type of college man.
 Almost . Great College Athlete
 Yet while at college Abbott Lawr- renee Lowell came near being a great athlete. He says the reason that he did not employ thIs' talent in this direction to the full was his .determin- ation to prepare for educational pur- suits. In truth, as an undergraduate Prof. Lowell was not popular at college and even after he was discovered" as

 The occasion was the first track games ever held at Harvard. The sports took place on old Jarvis held. which is-now occupied by college build inrs. fn the Spring of 1875. Young Lowell was then a sophomore. having entered Harvard with the class of 1871, About 800 parents and friends of the students attended and in the stand were Mir and Mrs. Augustus Lowen. the father and mother of the future president of the university. The son was a contestant In the mile run and though there was a large field Lo- well led the procession the entire dis tance. Racing across the tape winner the young athlete turned aside after crossing the line and bounded Into the grand stand, where he boisterously embraced his mother and kissed her In exuberance of spirit. That show or emotion almost. cost Lowell member shIp in the exclusive Hs sty Pudding Club. and 1t affected his standing as an athlete. especially among the men who were prominent fin directing stu- dent competitions.
 By birth. educational associations and social standing. Lowell had the qualifications for admission to the Nasty Pudding Club. His grandfather. John Amory Lowell, who founded the Lowell mills and was one of the pioneer cotton manufacturers of New England. had been a member of the Harvard corporation. His maternal grandfather. Abbott Lawrence, also wealthy cot- ton manufactures, had given xb0,0O0 to the Lawrence scientific school at Harvard, and he also had been minister to the Court of St. James from fS4s to 1852. A. Lawrence had been to school in Paris and had prepared for college at Noble's school in Boston. The young man enjoyed entree to the highest social circles in Boston and Cambrldge. for even President Eliot himself was under obligations to the grandfather of this student for his election to the presidency of the uni versity. But this did not avail against the prejudice caused by the incident at the end ofk Lowelrs first race
 Later young Lowell redeemed hirn- self in the estimation of his college critics. The next fall, in the annaai games, he won the one-miie, the two mile and the three-miie runs. He took all the cups and medals offered as first prizes for the long distance running events. On May Is, 1876. at a big meet at the old Beacon Park race track, Lawrence Loweel won the mile run against the leading amateur rum ners of Boston and vicinity.

Starvation seems c strange remedy for any dis ease. Yet starvation by rigorous diet, was once generally resorted in case of indigestion or other stomach trouble. Even yet, 1t is sometimes tried
 Such . remedy is worse than useless Every day of life consumes portion of the tissue of the human body. The food we eat serves to repair this waste, and you can't build up the system by withholding material for the purpose.
 If the stomach is In such condition that 1t can not furnish 1t, the task must be performed without the stomachs assistance. Kodol is the only pre- paration which accompishes this There are others which act on certain kinds of food, but Kodol is the only one, which digests them all, as the stomach digests them
 Man is % constituted that he needs a variety of food; to reduce the variety, always produces bad results
 Tn ninety-nine cases iu 6 hundred, indigestion is due to lack of some of the clements, which con stitute the natural digestive juices, usually to the absence of hydrochloric scid for the stomach
 It is by the action of these juices, that food is reduced to form in which 1t can be transformed into living tissue With any of them lacking, 1t is easy to see that the process of digestion cannot be perfectly performed.
 With the single exception of KodoL all prepara. lions for the relief of Indigestion lsck certain of these clements. Consequently, they cannot digest all classes of food
 Kodol contains them all. It win digest any thing that the healthy stomach can digest. It is Natures own cure.

 Prof. Lowell wants to learn the ann bitions of his young men, and he puts questions which are to test the Swis- dom of the general elective policy. He induces the boys to tell him why they have selected certain courses, and he modestly offers his advice. In the he is making mental notes. to add to his volumes of statistics.
