ARREST!NG FLIGHT OF TIME
German Scientists Advise the Eating
OF Egg Shells by Those Who Ap-
proach Old Age.

Two Germans, deep thinkers-Pro-
fessors Emmerich and Loewe-state
that egg shells eaten increase the
power of resistance against the with
ering blight of time add weight to
the body. activity to the brain and
strength to the heart; that they de-
stroy injurious bacilli. prevent intiam-
nation and disease and lend courage
and energy. This reminds me, Phll-
Up Hale writes in the Boston Herald.
OF the preparation advertised in Lon
don 80 or more years ago as an eX-
cellent substitute for table butter,
none genuine unless stamperd on the
blade Eustace Miles, the English
court tennis player and vegetarian,
says he had an old nurse who used
to eat egg shells and crunch them joy
fully between the teeth that happened
to meet and she said she ate the
shells because they shaved the hair
off inside Of the throat" The discov-
cry Of the German scientists is pc

if YOU do not break egg shells the
witches will put out TO sea in them to

WATSON WOULD PUT
END TO ALL STRIKES

washington. D. c., March S0.-With
a view of ultimately being able to ef-
feet the elimination OF strikes and
labor disturbances, Senator Watson
introduced in the senate concurrent
resolution. providing tor joint COM
mission OF the house and senate TO
Immediately undertake measures to
afford relief from industrial turmoil

committee Of six that shall have
power to Immediately investigate the
relations between employer and EN-
ployes.
The measure provides that the com
mission shall be empowered to visit
scenes of industrial unrest and be en-
dowed with power to summon wit
.nesses, compel the giving Of evidence
and other powers entailed in a court
of laws. It provides that the govern
ment shall furnish funds necessary
for the employment of stenographers,
clerks and other essentials to the
work Of an Industrial commission.
The commission will be ordered to re-
port at the opening Of congress the
result of it's findings during the sum
mer

gate the high cost Of living which is
regarded as an element of discord be-

ployee.

w. r. ALEXANDER FOR AUDITOR
OF STATE.

The friends OF Mr.. William Fontaine
Alexander have been for some time
urging him to announce his candidacy
for the democratic nomination for the
office Of State Auditor.
A multiplicity of business interests
have made it imperatively necessary
for him to see his way clear to as
sumo the office, should it be the plea
sure of the democracy of West Vir-
ginia in convention assembled, to be-
stow the honor on a worthy son of old
Jefferson
He has however, finally decided to
announce his candidacy, subject to
the decision of the democratic party,
for the success of which, he has, since
attaining manhood worked in season
and out of season.
Surely it is time that the Gibraltar
of democracy had recognition al the
hands of the party. Jefferson has had
no important office since the creation
of the state, and her claims will be
Ireadily conceded by all firm-minded
party men.
Apart from that in the person of
w. F. Alexander, the man and the of
fee would have indeed met, for no
one could be more peculiarly well
qualified for the position of State Au-
ditor than he.
Fontaine Alexander was not born
with a silver spoon in his mouth. A
common school course and the read
ing of law while clerking for Forrest
w. Brown were his educational equip
ment for the battle of life. Elected
County Clerk when barely of age, he
! filed the office so acceptably as TO
be reelected for a second term with
out opposition, and could doubtless
have continued in that Office had he
not decided to enter the insurance
field where he has attained eminent
success-an experience of the greatest
possible value to a State Auditor who
is also ex ofIlcio Commissioner of In
surance. His expert knowledge of
land values has resulted in Mr. Alex
ander's appointment to the Board of
Equalization, and as vice-president Of
one of our most fourshing banks he
has proved himself an able financier

MET BY LARGE CROWDS.

The Agricultural Extension division
OF the West Virginia University Is
much pleased over the remarkable at
tendance and success OF the special
agricultural train which ran for ten
days over the B. & O. line. The train
was equipped at the expense of the
railroad company, and the instructors
were furnished by the Agricultural
College.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
country roads were very muddy, and
the rain poured down for several days,
farmers, living from six to eight miles
from the station, came with their fam
lies to attend the meetings
The train passed through fourteen
counties, made fifty stops and had an
average attendance of 1872 at each
stop.
This was the fourth special agricul-
tural train run by the Extension Di-
vision this year. One thousand three
hundred miles have been travelled, %
counties have been traversed. and
about 10000 persons have received
agricultural instruction by this serv.

MANUAL TRAINING COURSE FOR
TEACHERS.

With the recent changes in the or
ganization of the College of Engineer.
ing in West Virginia University great
er emphasis is being placed on man
ual training courses for teachers and
on special courses for mechanics. 1t
is believed that in the past the people
OF the state have not realized the
splendid opportunities which the uni
versity affords for training along these
lines. The demand for manual train
ing is being met by number of high
schools, but these schools are finding
it difficult to secure trained teachers
and in most instances such help has
come from beyond the borders of the
state. 1t is hoped that the introduc.
ton of manual training into the Sum.
mer School will result in a large num-
Der Of teachers specializing in this
work and a more general introduction
of manual training in the schools
throughout the state.
