bowel trouble which is likely to turn
into appendicitis. If you have constipa-
ton, sour stomach, or gas on the stom-
ach, try simple buckthorn bark, glyc-
crime, etc, as compounded in Adler-i-ka,
the new German appendicitis remedy.
c. II. Kendrick & Co states that A. SIN
GLE DOSE of this simple remedy will
relieve bowel or stomach trouble almost

College Graduate At Fourteen.

A short while ago this country mar
veled at the achievement Of the SSdis
bov who entered Harvard at the age
of eleven. Here is another lad who is
being graduated from college at four
teen. His story is told by H Adding
ton Bruce in remarkable article
"New ideas in Child Training" in The
American Magazine for July He is the
son of Prof Leo Wiener OF Harvard uni
versity, of whom the writer says:
"A scholar with an international rep
utation, who believes that the scret OF
procieious mental development lies in
early training. He is the father OF
four children, ranging in age from four
TO sixteen; and has had the courage OF
his convictions in making them the
subjects of an educational experiment
The results have been astounding, more
especially in the case of his oldest son
Norbert This lad, at eleven, entered
Tufts college, from whoch he graduated
in 1909, when only fourteen years old.
He then entered the Harvard graduate
school, where he spent year special
ing in scientific subjects, and is now at
Cornell, studying for the Pb. d. de-
gree, which he will undoubtedly gain at
an age when most boys are beginning
their college careers"
The article cites instances Of a mum
Der of girls Of tender years, who
achieved an unusually high order OF
intelligence from specially adopted plans
Of home training.

GUARD OFFICERS FOR TEXAS.
Gen. Harries to Furnish War Depart,
ment With List Of Seventy.

The division of militia affairs. War De-
partment. today received from Brig.
Gen. Harries. commanding the District of
Columbia militia, statement Of the num-
Der of officers of the National Guard Of
the District he will recommend to at
tend the proposed army maneuvers in
Texas. Gen. Harries makes mention of ap-
proximately seventy officers. explaining
that he will forward In a few days their
names and a statement Of the time it
will be most convenient for each OF them
to be on duty with the regular troops in
the southwest.
The letter received at the War Depart
ment today gives merely the total of Off
GERS who will be recommended to attend
the meneuvers, showing them divided nu-
merically by regiments. separate organ
izations and staff departments.
1t Is by no means certain that the total
from the District. or from any of the
states, viii be accepted by the War De-
partment. The latter may find 1t neces-
sary to abridge the number. making a
proportionate allotment from the states
and the District.
II vas made clear at District militia
headquarters today that no officer OF the
local brigade would be permitted to at
tend the maneuvers. no matter how de-
sirable he might be otherwise, IL his
property amounts are not in a condition
entirely satisfactory to the brigade quar-
termaster. Nor will any officer from the
District 60 to the maneuyers until after
the annual inspection Of the guard the
first two weeks of April.
The organized militia Of Kentucky to-
day offered fifty-three officers to the War
Department to attend the maneuvers.
With only Wyoming to be heard from
the department now has received 3, sos
acceptance of it's invitation to the Ma
tional Guard officers.
