SIMPLE LANGUAGE FOR ALL
Ready-Made Tongues Are Doomed to
Die-Short Life If Latest In
vention VIII Hold,

Albany, N. Y--If the inventors and
promoters of so-called universal Ian
guages" continue their activities, arti-
fetal languages will at last be nearly
as numerous as those of natural
growth.
Quite a number of years ago the
idea that it might be possible to con-
struct simple language that could
be made readily available for COM
mercial intercourse among all nations
was materialized in the jargon that
was called Volapuk For that, all the
good points were claimed that have
since been claimed for~its various sue
cessors. For time it had limited
vogue. A few enthusiasts devoted
themselves to the study of it and held
meetings at which it alone was
spoken Then it gradually passed into
the limbo of forgotten things.
Next Esperanto was brought out
with copious assurances that it was
indeed the real thing. Then came Ro,
another artificial language said to be
perfectly good. The latest addition to
the list is called lido. There may have
been others, but we do not now recall
them.
All these ready-nade languages have
this feature in common, that they
look like what is called "hog Latin"
and sound like it when one tries to
speak the words. They are constructed
mostly from Latin roots, with few
conveniently adaptable Anglo-Saxon
ones mixed in. Their simplicity" is
In the use of a large variety of ter
limitations to denote gender and num-
Der in the case of verbs.
That no artificial language will ever
become useful for any kind Of inter-
course among the people of the differ
ent countries, is a foregone conclu.
sion. Only live one can become uni
versal An artificial language is still
born, and it Is as impossible to gal
vanize 1t into life as it would be to
revive and bring back into use one Of
the dead languages.
Unless all signs fail, there is just
one live language that is destined to
become the universal medium of bust
ness intercourse, and that one is Eng
lish.

Another act in the farce comedy
elbow Not to Revoke a License" was
given at the council chamber last
evening, but the play has held the
stage for so long that it is becoming
a trife wearisome to the general pub
lie which has a pretty fair understand
ing of the situation. Why all this
pother with paid attorneys, arguments,
witnesses, etc. Why don't the alder
men vote and go home? AS one of
the attorneys remarked right in the
midst of the proceedings, nothing that
would be said or done would make a
difference of a vote in the council, so
why not take the vote at once and
have it over with?

PLANNING FOR FARM COURSES
Leaders In University of Illinois An
nounce Scheme to improve
Rural Conditions.

Chicago.--An undertaking which is
expected to work wonderful improve
ment in the condition of rural life in
this state is announced by the Uni
versity of Illinois. The plan is to in
troduce agriculture as study in the
farmer boy in general acquires about
all the education he receives before
he grows to manhood.
AS the first step, Prof. Fred L..
Charles of the state university at
Urbana has sent out call for con-
ference to be held at the state college
of agriculture on March "a, % and rs.
Eat this season of the year." Prof.
Charles said, "many teachers are ask
Ing for assistance, administrative Off
GERS are requesting materials, bulle-
tins, aid in planning experimental
plots, etc. The state normal school,
farmers institutes, rural school d.
rectors, educational and agricultural
journals and other important agencies
are all working upon the problem in
its various phases. There Is felt g.
need, however, for closer cooperation,
and this confidence will do much to
unity these forces and to formulate
definite steps in advance.
'As it is intended to bring together
at this time only the more active
workers, the sessions will be confined
to the treatment Of practical concrete
topics. Five sessions will be held;
formal papers will be brief, assuring
amplest opportunity for round-table
discussion. 1t is hoped that school ALL
thorities will recognize the Importance
of this gathering and make it possible
for interested teachers to attend with
out expense"
It is believed that the conference
will arouse general interest through
out the state and will result in much
practical good.

Follow this advice.

Quaker Oats is the best of all foods;
it is also the cheapest. When such
men IS Prof. Fisher of Yale University
and Sir James Crichton Browne,
Ii. d. F. RS. of London spend the
best parts of their lives in studying
the great question of the nourishing
and strengthening qualities of different
foods, it is certain that their advice is
absolutely safe to follow.
Professor Fisher found in his ex-
periments for testing the strength and
endurance of athletes that the meat
eaters were exhausted long before the
men who were fed on such food as
Quaker Oats. The powers of endur-
ance of the non-meat eaters were
about eight times those of the meat
eaters.
Sir James Crichton Browne says
eat more oatmeal, eat plenty of it and
eat it frequently. 50

To the disinterested observer on the
side lines it appears that the cause
of the "drys'' is getting fully as
much assistance from its enemies as
from its friends and the saloon men
may well pray to be delivered from
those who are trying to help them.
They are making votes for the other
fellows right along. Some of the
more prominent saloon men realize this
but they declare they are helpless.

OBITUARY

Annette M. Epson was born at
Springvale, Columbia Co., Wis, March
Is, 1857, being the second daughter of
Ashbel and Helen G. Epson. When a
little girl she moved with her par
ents to Kenosha county where the re-
mainder of her life has been spent.
On November "a, 1881, she was mar
ried to George S. Huntoon of the
town of Salem, who, with one son,
George Roger, remains to mourn the
loss of wife and mother One other
,son, Maxwell S., died in infancy.
Years of i'll health necessarily con-
fined Mrs. Huntoon largely to her
home, and though a large circle of
her friends will miss her, it was there
her light shone brightest and where
no one can fill her place. Always
brave, patient, and considerable of
others her life was a beautiful ex-
ample to those who knew her best.
She died March IA, 1910. Though
our affection is hard to understand,
let us look forward to meeting her
with other loved ones in the world
beyond.

BIG SENSATION IN GERMANY
Caused by Latest Speech Of Emperor
William.

Berlin. Aug. 27.-The speech deliv-
cred by Emperor William of Germany
before the provincial banquet at Koe-
nigsberg. in which he reiterated and
emphasized his belief in the divine
mandate by which he rules, referred
to the Prussian crown as bestowed by
Gods grace and not by parliament's
or peoples assemblies. and laid a
lance against the present movement
for woman suffrage. is the political
sensation of the hour.
The leading organs of the German
press devote extended comment to 1t,
generally criticising the emperor's ut
terances. and there are indications
that the discourse will have a deep
political effect upon the country, near
ly all the Berlin papers discussing the
subject in connection with the polit.
ical crisis Of November, 1908, when
the publication by the London Daily
Telegraph of an interview with the
emperor aroused storm against the
uncontrolled public speaking of the
emperor.

ISOLATION and former head of the gov.

holds that the loss of property and
life in the recent and present forest
fires was unnecessary.
The disastrous results, he said. are
traceable to the unpreparedness to
deal with the fire situation. He scores
members of congress who have op.
posed appropriations for the proper
equipment of forest rangers and in
that connection names Senator Hey
burn of Idaho. whose home town, Wal.
lace, Ida, suffered serious loss: Sena-
