NEW COURSE POPULAR.

Religious Education Meeting With
Great Success at University.
Special to Times Republican.
Iowa City, Sept. 4.-That the stu
dents at the State University Of Iowa
are interested in religious matters is
shown by the report of the committee
on religious education, which has just
been made public. Last year for the
first time courses were offered in re-
ligious instruction at the state univer-
sity. Professors in the school and the
different ministers Of Iowa City con-
Quoted the courses and regular univer-
sity credit was given for the work.
The report for the year shows that
fifty students in all enrolled during
the first semester. During the second
semester twenty-four students selected
new courses which were offered. This,
with the fact that a great majority Of
the work elected in the fall was for
the year, shows surprising interest in
religious work. Most of the courses
were broad and dealt with subjects Of
interest to all students There is a
general feeling at the university that
the new course Is decided success.
The one handicap felt last year was
the lack Of suitable library material.
This difficulty, however, has been re-
moved, as the university has made
generous provision for library equip
nent. 1t IS expected that the courses
this year will prove even more popular.

PREPARING TO ENTERTAIN
LARGE CROWD OF HARVEST
HOME ExcuRsloNIsrs.
LOW RATES SECURED
FROM NORTHWESTERN LINE
Visitors Will Be Enabled to Inspect
New Agricultural Hall, New Central
Building and Other Extensive Inn
provements-First Excursion in
Three Years.

Special to Times Republican.
Ames, Sept 4.-Ames is to have a
harvest home excursion again this
year, and is making plans to give
royal reception to the people of the
state who will take that opportunity
to visit the college. These excur-
sion days have always proven very
popular and considerable regret was
expressed in all parts Of the state
when they were discontinued three
years ago. This year the Northwest
ern railroad will run excursions on all
its lines within the state. 1t is not yet
known definitely just what other roads
will cooperate in this movement.
The dates set for the harvest home
FESTIVAL are Friday and Saturday,
Oct. 1 and 2. Every department
at the college will be open to inspec-
tion. The visitors will be given an
opportunity to see students at work
In the various laboratories, so that
they can form an idea of how the
college is making use of this method
Of education. Guides will be at hand
to explain and answer questions. The
visitor can not fail to go away with
much clearer idea of the kind of
work the state college is doing in
teaching the application of science to
the problems of every day life.
A number of new buildings have
been erected since the last excursions
were held. Chief among these is the
new agricultural hall, which will be
in use for the first time this fall.
This magnificent building, which is
the finest building in the world for
the teaching of agriculture, is occu-
pied by the departments of animal
husbandry, farm crops, horticulture
and forestry, chemistry soils, agricul-
tural journalism, and the extension
department.
The new central building has been
completed since the last excursion,
the new engineering annex and shops
have been built, and large number
of other minor improvements have
been made. Not the least of these
recent additions to the college Of these
recent additions to the college equip
ment is the new 200-acre dairy and
poultry farm. The buildings on this
farm embody all the latest ideas IN
their construction. The record break
ing COWS and hens will be on exhibit
ton, and attendants will explain how
they are handled to produce these
records.
The new electric line has replaced
the old steam donkey" that in form
er years transported the people from
town to the college, and the crowds
will be handled safely and without
delay. This harvest home excursion
offers the best possible chance to look
over the college.

You know the French people have
the development of the bust and form
down to a fine point.
"By this French method, the breasts
may be developed from to inches in
30 days. This applies to women OF
almost any age, from young girls to
elderly. matrons, whether the bust is
absolutely not developed at all, or has
grown weak and flabby. and hangs, no
matter from what cause.
'It Is beauty of form that attracts
much more than the features. You will
always find 1t so with both sexes.
Il will be only too glad to tell any
woman who is interested what this
simple French method is. If she will en-
close 2-cent stamp to pay for the
postage, will send an illustrated
booklet In plain sealed wrapper that
will explain it ALL"
We suggest to our lady readers that
they write to Madame DuBarrie for
