Educate Your Boy at Home.

I have been given honorary degrees
in certain foreign universities on the
continent of Europe and in England.
l am grateful therefor. I appreciate
the honor. 1t was the keenest pleas
ure to me to visit those universities I
admire them with all my heart And
now, having said that you will not
misunderstood me when 1 say that I
come back feeling more truly than ever
that the place for a man to be edu-
Gated is in his own home.
Let him be sent to school and to the
university here in the United States.
If he has a chance to take a post
graduate course elsewhere. according
as his tastes and needs dictate, good,
but let him have the foundations laid
here, where his citizenship must be
exercised.
Let me also point out the fact that
you cannot be useful abroad unless you
have abroad the respect that only
comes if your usefulness has been
proved at, home. No man ought to
receive or will receive respect abroad
unless as an American he has won his
spurs in American life at home-CoI

The Dollar Dress.

More than a tenth of the 243 girls
who graduated from Washington Irv-
ing high school last night wore dresses
costing from IL cents to 81. And ac-
cording to the report, it was impossi-
BILE to say who wore the inexpensive
dresses. One girl whose father sup
posed that she was wearing a gown
costing s45 appeared in one costing 50
cents-andi the fond parent was none
the wiser And this girl had the add
ed satisfaction of knowing that she
was helping to make the poorer girls
feel content.
The dollar dress idea is a creditab1e
one. creditable to the teachers who
suggested it and creditable to the
girls who enthusiastically carried it
through. 1t proved lesson in clothes

the doctors, contrary to the rule, did
not have an unusually busy day. There
were a few minor cases of burns, but
very few doctors had to be called to
give these attention. It was one of
the QUEST Fourths in this respect that
the city has experienced in a good
many years. At the Backus hospital
not a case was presented because of
injuries from explosives.
At -Poquetanuck, however. there was
a serious accident to a thirteen-year-
old, but it is thought that he will re-
cover. Soon after ten o'clock DR.. c.
E. Stark was called to attend Fred
Wilcox, son of Mrs William Wilcox

cannon. The cannon had been loaded
heavily with powder and there had

AMERICANS IN BRITISH puLPlTs
Clergymen from This Country Preach

American preachers are going to
London in increasing numbers every
summer and autumn TO fill leading
Nonconformist pulpits while the Eng

BY the way. Mr.. Gunsaulus' opinion
has been sought by an interviewer
regarding the assertion by Rev. W.
Kingscote Greenland that London is
the wickedest city on the earth, and
that, man for man. the Englishman is
more immoral than the Frenchman.
Mr.. Gunsaulus has known London in

ITCHING IRRITATION.
Worst Form of Skin Trouble Quickly
Cured by inexpensive Treatment

When you suffer with any skin
trouble, even though the itching
seems unbearable, do not think that
it is necessary to use some disgusting
greasy ointment. Try Hokara a pure
and simple skin food, that is guaran-
teed to contain no grease or acids and
which is so clearly that it does not
soil the linen.
Its power to instantly relieve any
irritation of the skin and make il soft,
white and beautiful, is almost mirac-
uIous.
Not only are minor skin troubles
like pimples, blackheads. acne, bar
ber's itch, etc. quickly cured, but
the worst ulcers or cases of salt rheum
or eczema are cleansed and healed by
this wonderful skin food.
In order that any one may try Ho-
kara at small expense, The Lee d Os-
good CO. are selling a liberal sized jar
at 25c, and in addition guarantee to
refund the money If the treatment
does not do all that is claimed for it.
