MUST LEARN LANGUAGES.

A Baraboo resident, who has visited
Europe and knows the necessity of
being able to speak foreign languages,
calls the attention of The News to a
statement by DR.. Nicholas Murray
Butler, president of Columbia univer-
sity, which appeared in a Chicago
paper few days ago. DR.. Butler said:
"We must revolutionize our meth
DDS of teaching modern languages be-
fore we can hope for further profitable
intellectual and com mercial inter-
course in Europe. Children in the
schools must actually speak French
and German with an attempt at pure
accent instead of merely picking out a
few passages from book, as at pres
ent.
"When we began teaching languages
in the American universities we inn
ported foreign instructors. The for
eigners, however, could not maintain
discipline and were gradually replaced
by native teachers, many of whom,
though excellent scholars themselves,
were hardly able to converse in for
eign tongue.
1.-THE belief has arisen that it is I'M
necessary really 10 speak French and
German. Thousands of educated
Americans visiting Europe annually
are providing the fallacy of this die
tum. English certainly is sufficient TO
carry tourist parties from hotel to
hotel, but it is impossible to obtain a
true idea of foreign lands and their
valuable culture without being able to
converse with the inhabitants.
Interchange of professors in Ameri-
ca and European universities, so bene-
fetal to the cause both of international
peace and international scholarship,
positively cannot be developed proper
Iy because so few American professors
are to be had who can talk to French
or German audience. The choice
should be from 5000 professors, but the
number is really nearer twenty-five"

WHY NOT CURE
YOUR RHEUMATISM
Do Not Join the Ranks of Hope
less Sufferers When There
Is a Remedy Within
Reach.

Why are there so many failures In
the treatment of rheumatism?
Why are so many sufferers resigned to
a life of pain, despairing of a per-
manent cure?
Because rheumatism defes any treat
ment that does not build up and purify
the blood. The poisons of rheumatism
are in the blood and it is only through
the blood that the disease can be fought
successfully.
Unles the blood is weak and impure,
rheumatism cannot get a foothold.
When it does the thin and impure
blood is not strong enough to overcome
the poisons alone. 1t must be strength
ened and purified. DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People are the best blood
building medicine you can take.
Mrs. George Lockard, a farmer wife,
of Landenburg, Pa, found complete re-
lief from rheumatism when she built up
and purified the blood with DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People. She
says:
tism in the left hip along the sCiatiC
nerve and in the shoulders and hands.
| consulted two doctors and while their
medicine helped me some, | did not

terribly that / used to wish many

fingers were bent and crippled and I

years. I couldn't step out right with

petite away and ! lost in weight and

Ct had been troubled with the rheu-
matism for over three years before l be-
gan using DR.. Williams Pink Pills for

months time was able to walk better.

He had to double his baking crew,
And the cause of the rush he never

For Bum, the Baraboo fancy baker,
Considered the ad man an obvious

And trusted to luck, or perhaps to his

To Keep off the bankruptcy under

One day this Baraboo baker, Bum,
Was put in the Line to make some

And from that day much wealth he

But he never knew why, the son of a
