SMELL
AND HEARING
RESTORED

The thousands who suffer the mis-
cries of colds and catarrh and claim
they have never found cure, can
get instant relief by simply annoint-
ing the nostrils with Ely's Cream
Balm.
Unlike internal medicines which
upset the stomach, or strong snuffs
which only aggravate the trouble,
this cleansing, healing, antiseptic
balm instantly reaches the seat of
the trouble, stops the nasty dis
charge, clears the nose, head and
throat, and brings back the sense. of
taste, smell and improves the hear
ing. More than this, 1t strengthens
the weakened and diseased tissues,
thus protecting you against return
of the trouble. This remedy will
cure a cold in a day, and prevent
its becoming chronic or resulting in
catarrh.
Nasal catarrh is an inflammation
Of the membrane lining the air pas
sages, and cannot be reached by mix
lures taken into the stomach, nor
can 1t be cured by snuffs and pow
ders which only cause additional ir-
ritation. Don't waste time on them.
Get a 50-cent bottle Of Ely's Cream
Balm from your druggist, and after
using 1t for o day you will wish you
had tried II sooner.
Mothers should give the children

SEEKING NAME FOR HIGH
 SCHOOL DRAMATIC CLUB
Great Interest Already Shown in A ateur Acting Organization
 at B. HI. $.

ITO be or not to be-, that is the question. Whether it were better to be known as the Alumni Players Club, Graduates Drama Society, or by something else, that is the question the committee appointed to draft a constitution for the B. H. $. Alumni Dramatic Association are now pro- pounding. Or in other words, what will be their name. They invite sug- gestions and will be ready to receive them immediately. Laurence Finkel- stone is chairman of the committee, and can be reached at his office in the .Newfield building.
 The constitution vii be presente ed for adoption at the big meeting at the High School on Monday evening at 7:30 o'clock. Names will be subscrib- ed at this time and those signing will be considered charter members of the organization.
 Any academic graduate of the High School who so desires may join, and it is expected that large assembly will be present to vote upon the con- stitution and bylaws which have been drafted.
 It is not essential that one have abi ity along dramatic lines to enjoy the benefits set forth by the society, nor is participating in plays obiga- tory but rather elective. The objects are to promote fellowship among the B. H. S. academic alumni, to stimu late an interest in the acted drama as an educational force and to study and present plays.

The Swastika,

The origin and histu,.,' of the curious charm known as the swastika have been exhaustively described by Dr. T. Carr. an English antiquarian. He
 claims that the origin of the swastika dates back to pre-Christian days. h. vestigation has led him to believe that it was originally the symbol of polar star worship and that it was the most ancient and widely distributed symbol that had ever existed. It has been found in Chaldea. among the ruins of the earlier cities of Troy. in Egypt. on the prehistoric relics of Greece. on Hit tite remains. on prehistoric American Indian mounds. in South America. on Buddist remains in India. on Roman altars. on Runic crosses in Great Brit ain. in Coptic churches of the tenth century and on English brasses of the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. 1t Is still used in India. Tibet. China. Korea and Japan as sign of long life. good wishes and good fortune: it is also used by the I.arrs and the Films.

Work or the Bower Birds.


 There are five different bower birds three in Australia, the regent. the satin and the spotted; one in the Papuan is- lands. the catbird. and one in New Guinea. Their brilliant pIumage is golden yellow. glossy black or spotted brown. often with rose tinted collar. Their bowers are in no sense nests, but miniature gardens. adapted for enjoy ment and ccurtship and set in the eye of the sun. A pavement of equal sized pebbles is arranged. and numberless twigs are thrust firmly between them in two parallel rows. inclined to each other, inclOsing an avenue about a yard long and several inches wide. To decorate this arbor gay feathers. ruddy berries. pearly shells. bleached bones, even watches. knives and other glitter ing objects are tastefully placed in and around the entrance. The New Guinea bird. still more of gardener. con- structs a miniature conical summer house. with internal gallery. Before this is Q meadow of moss, kept free from grass. dust and leaves. on which bright flowers and fruit are daily of- fered by the enamored male bird to his mate.

Legal cus>-...s From, the Church.


 When one lawyer refers to another as brother attorney" he employs an ancient phrase peculiar to religious and legal fraternities and suggests the close historical relation between the callings. In England for two and a half centuries after the Norman con- quest all high legal offices were filled by churchmen. Laymen could not hope for advancement or for clients. and in- deed the only path to the requirement of professional education lay through holy orders. The fraternal form of address common to the church passed naturally into legal phraseology. Brother So-and-so of the II onastic or der was 'brother" also at the bar. So strong was popular prejudice against admitting the competency of mere lay men at law when this class began to practice. about 1900. that lay barristers adopted black velvet skullcap or cOif to conceal their lack of tonsure, the distinguishing mark of the priestly clerk. Down to our day both the form of address and the peculiar Eeadgear have remained. although we have coas- ed to associate the two professions whose early intimacy was the original reason for their existence.-Green Bag.

"Cutting of the KhaIie."

One of the most interesting of Egyp- tian customs is that known as the
 "cutting of the Khalig." which Is cele' brated on the occasion of the opening of the dams of the Khalig canal. there by causing the flooding of tht land for cultivation purposes. The ceremony takes place in August. when tue Nile reaches its highest level. and is really q thanksgiving service. According to tradition. the old time Egyptians had a custom of casting young virgin gayly dressed into the river as a sacrifice to the gods. but at the present time tue offering takes the more humane form of a dummy.

Elephants Asleen.

X question often raised m regard to the African elephant is whether this animal ever rests or not. At first blush 1t would appear that there could only be one answer to the question. So huge an animal must expend a terrific amount of energy and therefore, as one might reasonably infer. must need more time than smaller animals for rest and reinvigoration. Nevertheless many travellers and some naturalists have asserted that the African elephant in it's native state never sleeps or at least never lies down. A correspond ent who has sent photographs from Malek. on the White Nile. says in the communica tion that accompanies them that the picture represents ''herd of female elephants photographed in the bush near Malek. in the Mogalla prov ince of the Anglo Egyptian Sudan. It has been maintained that the African elephant never lies down to rest. Sev- eral may be seen thus sleeping."- Country Life.

Poisons In the Stomach.

A most curious fact is that all food contains the elements of poison. and in our body poisons are manufactured from these. For instance. meat, fish, cheese and milk are composed Of hy- drogen, carbon. nitrogen and oxygen. Take away the last and you have prus- sic acid. We do not manufacture prussic acid, it is true. But in every stomach in the world fermentation goes on just as in a brewery, and the poisonous carbonic acid is made in large quantities. If you breathed 8 few days output of carbonic acid gas you would inevitably die. Sulphuret- ed hydrogen is one of the most deadly gases known. yet in every stomach it is made at one time or another. In the stomach all food is converted into what we call "peptone," and if very small quantity of this found its way into the blood it would kill as surely as prussic acid.-Pearson's Weekly.

Story of a VioIin,0

On one occasion all who were pres ent in the court of justice at Berlin had the great pleasure of listening to a free performance by Professor Joa- chim. the famous violinist. It appear ed from the evidence that dealer in musical instruments was charged with cheating a customer by representing that violin which he offered for sale at $125 was an instrument that cou d be played. The great professor was called in as an expert witness, and. taking. up the impugned instrument, he proceeded to play upon it. Under his magic fingers it really sounded like a violin. but in a few moments. much to the regret of his listeners. the macs tro laid the instrument down with an evident air Of contempt.
