HARVARD'S CHILD
 PRODIGY AMAZES

Cambridge. Mass, Oct. 11.-Harvard University has seen more than her share of notables in the past week, but none of these have aroused more interest than William J. Sids aged 13 years, of Brookline, Mass. The youngster came to the university of fees Saturday accompanied by his father, pr. Boris Sidis, and as the pair entered the door they were greeted by Recorder George w. Cram, who said What, again?'
 'Yes," said the thirteen-year-oId, tbut this time for success And he wrote his name in well rounded letters in the college registry.
 Three years ago the boy first knock ed at the classic gates of Harvard for admittance, but the powers that be re- fused him on account of his youth. Last year they still remained obdurate, and he entered the Tufts College, where he was a chum of Leopold Wei Institution last June. at the age of IA. Both boys were interested in the same course of study-mathemat
 For the third time, this Fall request was made to the Committee on Ad- mission at Harvard and at last favor tinue to reside with his father in Brookline, and will come here for the courses he elects. He is of Polish de- scent, and can speak that language and French as well as English. His studies at Harvard will embrace the higher mathematics, including calculus and a course in English composition.
 He is the youngest student ever ma- triculated at Harvard The lad has amazed all who have come in contact with him by his marvellous grasp on mathematical subjects. the speed of his calculations, and the ease with which he assimilates the most intri- cate branches of the science.

 The road reiterates that the new is- sue of s40,000, 900 of new stock will be used in part for completing the elec- trification of the New York division and providing for running electric trains between New York and: New Haven ..
 The new station in New Haven is also to come out of this money. One of the directors when asked about the present business of the road said:
 Our business was never better. The rail lines, the steamboat lines and the trolley companies are all doing an ex- cellent business
 Nothing conclusive could be said about the future price of stock and the dividends.

JESUIT REBUKES
 PRESIDENT ELIOT

Washington, Oct. 11.-Declaring that the trend of many modern universities is away from God, Father William J. day attsc cked President Emeritus Eliot of Harvard in a sermon preached be- fore the students of Georgetown uni- versfty. a Catholic institution. Father Stanton did not call Dr. Eliot by name, but his references were so pointed that he himself told his congregation they would all know whom he meant.
 Even the President Emeritus of one of our great universities, a man of 50 years learning and experience comes out of-the North and speaks as though the world might benefit by. his train ing,'' said Father Stanton. What does he do? He rides roughshod over the convictions of 1900 years; he would rob the world of hope; he would put God off the stage and hand mankind over to his own uncertain efficiency. Oh, lame and impotent conclusion! A little child is better guide than you, dis credited prophet of the North. You may preside gracefully over sessions of the Faculty; you may do well for your institution, but you are not a guide in religion. 'I will not mention the name of this man. You all know who he is. But he denies everything the world has neIui sacred ana leaned upon TOT cen- turies.
 'Is this education or damnation? This man would have his religion bound by no creed or dogma, and as one brave newspaper expressed it, per- haps he would have this religion bound only by his own breath. That is all there is to it.''
 Father Stanton then referred to the Catholic institutions, and he said he thanked God in them education is not divorced from religion.
 4The trend of most modern colleges, D he continued. "now is against religion and the supernatural. Education should begin with God first. Not to do this is to slight God, and to try to form mans character without His assistance. You know the subterfuges of many of the modern institutions of learning. They are founded to do with out God. They are substituting evolu- tion for the Divine Being. God was before evolution, and there could be no evolution without Him.

good health, with its blessings, must un- derstand, quite clearly, that it involves the question of right living with all the term implies. With proper knowledge of what is best, each hour of recreation, of enjoy ment, of contemplation and of effort may be made to contribute to living aright. Then the use of medicines may be dis pensed with to advantage, but under or dinary conditions in many instances . simple, wholesome remedy may be invalu- able if taken at the proper time and the California Fig Syrup Co. holds that it is alike important to present the subject truthfully and to supply the one perfect laxative to those desiring it.
