The plan now In vogue in the United
States Of exchanging university pro
fessors with those of foreign schools
is turning out to be great success.
The movement was started last April
when Chancellor MacCracken Of the
University Of New York gave a series
OF free lectures at the University OF
Copenhagen. The genial chancellor
speaks no Danish and the blond and
intelligent student body Of the Danish
school speaks no English, but that

According TO Mark Twain, who, in
spite of his LACK Of humor, is believed
to be trustworthy authority on geog-
raphy, the three streets in the world
most famous are the Appian way,
Broadway and the board walk at At
lantic City. Jacobus Damn is not at
one with him In this opinion.
"where Is the Applan way2" he de-
manded when ! quoted the author Of
"Innocents Abroad"
For reasons neither here nor there |
did not enighten him Nor was 1t ncc-
essary, for he proceeded without pause
to sing the praises Of his favorite thor
oughfare.
"The board walkr' he shifted con
temptuously. Even Coney Islands
Surf avenue has the board walk stung
to a whisper. l wonder If Mark Twain
knows that In 1892 one Of my fore
fathers was offered lots as far north
as Fulton street for 500 apiece and
wouldn't buy, the old nincompoop! In
those days the name Of the street was
not Broadway; It was called Main
road. Then Il was known as Hoog
Veg. or Highway, and afterward as
Heeren street. which meant street of
the masters The board walk, indeed!'

C.. D. Kendall Gives Facts Regarding
Dyspepsia.
Kemer.

Although Indigestion and dyspepsia
are so prevalent, most people do not
thoroughly understand their cause and
how to obtain relief. There is no
reason why people should not eat
anything they desire-if they will only
chew it carefully and thoroughly.
Many actually starve thmselves into
sickness through fear Of eating every
~good-looking, good-smelling and good
tasting food, because ii does not agree
with them.
Dieting canno cure dyspepsia. If
we refuse every article of food that
disagrees with us, before long we
have nothing left, and find ourselves
chi onic dyspeptics.
We are SO confident that we can
furnish relief for indigestion and dys
pepsia that we promise to supply the
medicine free of all cost to every one
who uses it according to directors
who is not perfectly satisfied with the
result. We exact no promises and
put no one under any obligation what
ever. Surely nothing could be fairer.
We are located right here were you
live, and our reputation should be
sufficient assurance of the genuine
ness of our offer.
We want every one who is troubled
with Indigestion or dyspepsia in any
form to come to our store and get a
box of Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets. Take
them. home, and give them a reason
