UNIVERSITY NOTES

The all-absorbing topic of CONVEX
%satfon, the n that is on every stu
dents lips, is the Vermillion game
which occurs next Monday. The list
for signers to go to the game which
is down in the Office has nearly a
hundred signatures with no cam
paign started yet for a large num-
Der. 1t is probable that the largest
number of students that have gone
on a special train to a football game
will make this trip. A large number
of the downtown enthusiasts have
signified their intention of going. AS
an example Of the Importance this
game is assuming a large banner has
been stretched across the front Of the
chapel with the words painted there
on: I'VE must beat Vermillion."
The team itself has reached a few
er-heat. The nightly practice has
shown a spirit for perfection of plays
and defense better than has been
seen this season. Every man is out,
with the longing hope that he may be
permitted to do what little he can
to defeat the old time rival, the State
University. This is the kind Of spir-
it that augurs for victory and al
though we may not win, our oppon-
ents will know that they have been
playing football when they ' get
through.
Mrs. Griffin has been secured to
teach the classes for the rest of the
term which were under the Professor.
In modern languages she has had
especial training. For four years
While in Germany she studied this

The college societies this year will
only have n debate, the one be-
tween the Kappas and Daedalians.
The question is supported by the
Kappas and is, Resolved: That a
Income Tax, with an ex-
emption of Incomes below Five
Thousand Dollars, would be a desir-
able modification of the system of
Fedora. Taxation. The affirmative
team is composed of Willard B. Ken
nedy, John S. Chapman, and Herbert
A. Hardy. The negative, Bernie B..
Dean, Lawrence A. Todnem, and G.
w. Grill. The probability is that the
debate will not be held until late in
the term although no date has as vet
been determined. The prospect for
an intercollegiate debate is that none
will be held. The girls college socie-
ties have made no preparations for a
debate.

KIDNEY and LIVER PILLS
Headaches, backaches, aching limbs,
indigestion, biliousness, kidney de-
rangements and the most serious
diseases imaginable often have their
beginning with constipation.
There is one treatment which has a
direct and combined action on the
bowels, the liver and the kidneys and
gets these organs into good working
order in remarkably quick time, and
that is DR.. A. w. Chase's Kidney and
Liver Pills.

SOME HARD KNOCKS
Woman Gets Rid of "Coffee Heart"

The injurious action of Coffee on
the heart of many persons is we'll
known by physicians to be caused by
caffeine. This is the drug found by
chemists in coffee and tea.
A woman suffered a long time with
severe heart trouble and finally her
doctor told her she must give up cof-
fee, as that was the principal cause of
the trouble. She writes:
'My heart was SO weak it could not
do its work properly. My husband
would sometimes have to carry me
from the table. and 1t would seem that
1 would never breathe again.
1.-THE doctor told me that coffee was
causing the weakness of my heart. He
said 1 must stop it, but it seemed 1
could not give 1t UP until I was down
in bed with nervous prostration.
For eleven weeks I lay there and
suffered. Finally Husband brought
home some Postum and I quit coffee
and started new and right. Slowly I
got well. Now I do not have any head
aches, nor those spells with weak
heart. We know it is Postum that
helped me. The DIR. said the other
what you are 1 used to weigh 80
pounds and now I weigh 15s.
Postum has done much for me and
I would not go back to coffee again
for any money. for I believe it would
kill me II 1 kept atnit. Postum must
be we'll boiled according to directions
on pkg, then it has a rich favour and
with cream Is fine"

FOUGHT A MAD BULL.
Lincoln County Farmer Has Thrilling
Battle With Animal.

Lincoln, Kan, Nov. 10.-Wm.
Straeder of Logan township, while
walking across his pasture, was at
tackled without any warning by a
young bull. He was knocked down
from behind, and managed to turn
over on his back, but was totally un-
able to regain his feet.
For about half an hour Mr.. Straed-
err. who is a very active muscular man
about thirty years old, was engaged
in a rough and tumble fight for life.
The bulls horns set straight out
sidewise from his head and this ac-
counts for Mr.. Straeder not being
impaled. AS soon as he got on his
back he had chance. by extraordin-
airy twisting and squirming, to avoid
the horns, but he was trampled and
butted in frightful manner.
H. L. Hinckley, neighbor, happen
ing to get a glimpse of the struggle
from a distance, came to his rescue
with a horse and pitchfork, and
the bull was driven off. Mr.. Straeder's
clothes were entirely torn off him,
except his necktie and one pants leg.
The bulls eyes were badly gouged and
his nose was bitten, and Mr.. Straeder
succeeded in biting off two inches of
the brute's tongue.
