LOOK OUT FOR Girl
With HUMP ON NOSE
Worrying Her Means Trouble
Ahead for You

Chicago, April 5.-''Look at her nose
that tells how to avaid matrimonial
mishaps."
These were the words of Professor
Alfred E. Willis, of New York, to the
students of the Northwestern Uni
versity. Prof. Willis continued:
The broad, fiat nose is aggressive
The big nose with a hump is a con-
quering nose. The best nose in wo-
man is thin, delicate and medium
size"
According to Professor willis
directions, the young man debating
over a life vocation should feel of his
nose. If he finds himself with a
broad nose, like John Wanamaker CT
Andrew Carnegie, he would be sue
cessful merchant; if he has a long
nose, particularly if it has a bump
in the middle, and finds his pros
pective wife has the same popularity
he should break off the engagement
at once. There will be trouble from
the start.
Character can be read by the stu-
dent said he. can examination Of
the facial characteristics, the contour
of the head, the forAs of the body
the walk, the eyes, mouth, nose, laugh
handshake, all these put together will
reveal conclusively just what mar
or woman is"

DRAWN AT CORNELL
NEGRO Girls DiStaStGfuI to the
Whites

Ithaca, n. Y, April 5.--Disclaiming
any intention of trying to obtain So
cial equality with the white women
students and denying that they are in
any scheme to force the race question
to an issue at Cornell, two young col
ored women whose efforts to get rooms
in Sage College have caused a great
ado among the other co-eds, have is
sued a statement.
Rosa Vassar, whose home is III
lLynchburg, Va, is junior in the col
Ilege of arts and sciences. Pauline Ray
who comes from Geneva, N. Y, is a
sophomore in the same college. Both
are good students, but negroes. in
their statement they deny that they
have consculted with any other negro
student or taken advice as to their
course of action and are not trying TO
force the race question to an issue.
They say that the first application
to have rooms assigned to them III
Sage College was made over a year
ago At that time Mrs. Gertrude 4.
Martin, the adviser of women of the
university and the general supervisor
of the co-eds, told them that she had
taken the matter up with Emmons
Williams, the treasurer of the univer-
sity, and they decided that it would
not be expedient to have the girls
room in Sage College, which is the
only woman's dormitory.
The girls put in another application
some time ago. They We're moved to
do so because they wanted to live
nearer and in a more convenient place,
they claim. The rooms they are now
occupying are about a mile and a half
from the university 1t is understood
that if they could not get rooms in
the Sage dormitory they would not be
able to get near the campus, as it
would be hard to find accommodations
in the nearby rooming houses.
1--WE are not seeking social equality,
they said. Eve would live in Sage
College; as far as convenience and
comfort go We would be as the rest
of the girls, but as far as all things
social are concerned, we would be as
separate as two fingers on one hand.
We leave it to the trustees and believe
they will give us justice, but we know
that Henry w. Sage would give us
justice if he were alive"
Henry w. Sage gave Sage College to
the university. The trustees will meet
here within week or SO and they viii
have to decide this question as a petit
ton protesting against allowing the
two negresses to room in Sage College
has been filed with them. The petit
ton has been signed by over 200 CO.
eds, a majority of the number at the
university.

Indigestion Is Blamed as Cause

MODERN CITY LIFE is
CAUSE OF MANY WRECKS
The Hustle and Bustle Shortens

Every large city in the United States
contains countless numbers of worn
out, half sick men and women with
poor appetites and bad digestions.
They have no energy, little vitality and
are respondent and rvo
They have cold feet, sallow complex
ions and they say they are run down"
The right name for the trouble is ner-
vous debility n it is produced by the
strain and hustle and worry of modern
life.
Many think indigestion causes the
half bad feeling which aff1icts them
and they take Something to digest
their food" This is wrong. 1t may
afford temporary relief, but the cause
of their stomach trouble is the ner-
vous, debilitated condition of the en-
tire system and this must be overcome
before the stomach will perform its
functions properly.
Nervous debility is a modern aliment
caused by city life. There is a modern
tonic that overcomes this trouble like
magic. 1t is called Tona Vita. If you
are afflicted with nervous debility don't
wait another day feeling miserable.
Stop dosing your stomach. Get this
great tnoic and you will be astonished
how quickly YOU strength and am
bition will return and how your stom-
ach trouble will disappear.
iona Vita is sold on trial and must
bring back your health or the price is

Lees Rhubarb Laxative is the assist
ant remedy to iona Vita and is used
in cases of chronic constipation. There
is nothing equal to rhubarb as a
natural, harmless laxative. Harsher
drugs strain the intestines. and leave

and gives them strength. iona Vita

. y = Much time is spent in the nor
NAL school in drilling students in adj
dition, subtracting, multiplication and
division. In spelling the situation is
d%eplorable and disheartening."
The report of Messrs. Murray and
Rice then tells of their visit to the
Trenton Normal School and of their
talk with DR.. Green, the principal, who
expressed a fear hat proposed tests in
spelling, geography and history would
be too difficult. The words suggested
for the spelling test were "believe,
corollary, encyclopaedia, dissuade, con
temporary. receive, parallel, honorable,
hypothesis and California" Finally the
arithmetic test alone was given, with
the result already mentioned.
Messrs. Murray and Rice in further
commenting on the situation said they
found not more than one-third of the
High School graduates who enter the
normal schools sufficiently grounded
in fundamentals to take up the study
OF teaching. They assume that a like
unsatisfactory situation must exist in
the primary and grammar schools
They suggest that parents are being
deceived as to the kind of education,
their children are getting, and add:
THAT there is something wrong is
evident. Probably the children are
overloaded. A thorough training in
reading, writing, spelling and simple
arithmetic is of far more Importance
than a superficial training in those
and a dozen other subjects"
The only recommendation offered is
that in the selection of local school
boards care be exercised to get mem
bers capable of going into the schools
and giving tests and with courage
enough to give the resul of those
tests to the public, and when unsatis-
factory to cal principals and teachers
to account.

Education in States
High Schools Played

High School education as it is i'm
severe scoring in a written report made
to the State Board of Education to-
day by John p. Murray and Melvin A.
Rice, two members of hat board.
Proofs are submitted with the re-
port to show that pupils of the State
Normal schools at Montclair and
Trenton, most of whom are high school
graduates, are sadly deficient in a
knowledge of fundamentals.
out of eighty-six pupils at the Tren-
ton Normal School who were subjected
% a test in simple problems in arith-
l.Ietic only twenty got a percentage as
high as 20, and nineteen received less
than % per cent.
Thirty-six of the eighty-six pupils
failed to correctly divide ASA by 1873.
Messrs. Murray and Rice, in their re-
port. say they visited the Montclair
Normal School on November 8. They
noticed the efforts of many of the
staff were directed not to the methods
OF teaching, but to actual instruction
in fundamentals. They expressed sur
prise to DIR. Chaplin, the principal, and
then say in their report:
He smiled n at once exhibited
seine tests in spelling. The number and
kind OF words misspelled were some
what shocking"
The report goes on to say that DR..
Chaplin called attention to his W re-
port, recently submitted to the State
board, in which, after citing that nor
nal schools are maintained under the
law ''for training and educating per-
sons in the science of education and
the art IL teaching" he said among
other things: Some high school gradu-
ates cannot write a page of English.
which would be accepted in he sixth
grade of a respectable grammar school.

REV. DR.. ROSE M OUT
FOR WOMAN'S SUFFRAGE.

Rev. DR.. Henry r. Rose came out
openly for woman's suffrage in an adj
dress made at the headquarters of the
Essex County Suffrage Society yester-
day afternoon. Mr.. Rose said that suf-
frage for women is inevitale and that
he has believed in it for twenty years.
According to the speaker he is in sym
pathy with anything that makes for
the betterment of present conditions
and that the men and women who be-
lieve in giving woman the ballot have
always been among the pioneers of
progress. He referred to Jane Adams
Mary Livermore as being among
these pioneers.
