LOCAL JEWS To-
OBSERVE s''DAY
OF ATONEMENT"

Beginning this evening the Jew
ish people will begin to observe Yom
kippur. the day of Atonement.
September 80. Services will be held
ia Temple Aaron at 1880 this
evening and at $50 tomorrow morn
ing.
The Day Of Atonement, Yom Kip
pur. the holiest day In the Jewish
calendar. falls this year on the thir-
tieth day of September. The Hebrew
date is the 10th of Tishri. The fes-
tival is ordained in Leviticus XVI.
1884 and XIII. 26-32. In both pas
sages 1t is styled "A Sabbath of
Solemn Rest"
The purpose OF the Day of Atone
ment is clearly indicated by its
name. 1t is intended to complete
and crown the work of the peniten-
tial season. begun on the first Of
Tishri tNew Year,, by finally recon-
Cling the soul with the Almighty.

is spent in prayer and meditation.
II Is kept, too, as fast. in obed-
ience to the command given in each
of the two passages above cited
where the expression 'afflict his

ance with the traditional interpre-
tation, as synonymous with fasting.
The chief. the real aim of, the Dag
of AtOnement is. the return from
evil to good. or in other words. the
reconciliation of the individual soul
with the external right. which is of
God. All the external elements of
the days observance-its worship
and austerities-are intended to
promote this supreme purpose. They
cannot do duty for it. The act of
fasting is partly to serve as self
imposed chastisement. and partly It
has reflex influence. For hunger
and weakness tell upon the consci-
ence; they mortify pride. break
down obstinacy, cast men down be-
fore God in humility and contrition
But fasting does even more than
that. Taking the worshipper away
from such carnal occupations as eat
ing and drinking. 1t helps to fix his
thoughts upon the needs of the soul.
1t makes the day one OF physical alb

KELLEY GETS VERY BUSY.
(By Russell Larson.)

The athletic association of the
high school is to be organized this
afternoon and the Officers for the
coming year will be chosen. The
athletic association OF the high
school is composed of those teachers
and students of the high school who

association. The entrance fee is 25
cents.
The representatives of each class
in the association elect one member
to the athletic board. This board,
including member of the faculty,
has entire charge of all athletics for
the year.
A large membership is assured
this year. as there are great many

The question of truancy again con-
fronts the high school. The subject
came up for discussion some time
ago. but up to the present time moth
ing had been done in regard to elm
mating 1t. =. ..s,-. .ia- "a N
Several boys, students of the high
school, whose names are necessarily
withheld, decided that 1t was lit
tie too warm in doors at such lowly
occupation as studying. So they
mounted their fiery steeds and sped
away. Alas, had they but realized
the enormity OF the offense they
would have sped back more quickly.
Professor Kelley marshalled out
the truancy officer and the culprits
were soon apprehended. Night after
night they could not sleep. for they
were in deadly fear. There was even
some talk at faculty meetings of ex-
pelling the miscreants. but it was
finally decided to give them one more
chance.
Professor Kelley says that he will
absolutely have no truancy and woe
to the next one who decided to ex-
pertinent. He is determined that
this practice be discontinued. The
next case of truancy will be brought
before the. juvenile court which is in
pretty close touch to the reform

We read a lot ofmedical literature that only entrains but does not in
struet. In this strenuous period. when life is put to such a severe strain, we
need light and facts how to prevent disease more than talk that entertains.
Do you know that the clerk and the shop girl the merchant and the pro-
fesionalman confined to 'edentary work, are daily creating those conditions
that conduce to colds?
Mental fatigue, worry, heavy strain, nervousness resulting from desk or
store work are the easiest means for the of colds The average
life ofa clergyman is less than that ola farmer cause, sedentary work.
Sedentary life especially where it means the consumption ofbrain tissue.
often leads to overeahng; there is no more common cause of colds than over
eating.
When the digestive organs are weighed down with an excess of food, the
liver and kidneys and other important vital organs re overworked, vitality
is lower and there is less resistance; slight exposure, which under ordinary
conditions causes no harm results in bad cold.
To relieve a cold, a good expectOranto or cough remedy such as pERUNA
should be conveniently at hand to be taken at the very first attack of
the cold But what can be done to stop the frequency of colds to such people
that arc confined to sedentary work?
Start with a cold water towel bath, walk to your place Of business, or de-
vote an hour OF each day TO outdoor life, take g dose of PERUNA before each
meal to tone up your system, eat moderately retire early and sleep in room
full of fresh air.
Mr. L. A. Richardson, a substantial druggist from Marine, Illinois, ccm-
menting on the merits OF proprietary medicines writes as follows:
Il have been engaged in the retail drug business here for the past FORTY
years. During this time / have seen many patent medicines come into use,
flourish TO rome crtw0 years and then gradually disappear. There are very
few ofthese remediesthat possess enough real merit to insure them long life.
Peruna has always beena good seller with us wiha marked increase from year
to year. The change in the formula some years ago, by the addition of the
slightly laxative properties, has made it reliable remedy for constipation
and for colds take pleasure in urging MY brother druggists to recommend
it for these two ailments
Those who wish to begin the cold water towel bath should have a copy

The Logical Outcome.

The end of the long-drawn-ou;
controversy as TO the ownership OF
Reelfoot Lake seems to have been
reached through the purchase, by
the State OF Tennessee of the in
~terests of the West Tennessee Land
Company.
The Tennessee Supreme Court
some months ago handed down q
decision giving the larger part OF
the lake to the State. The claim OF
the land company to about one
fourth of the lakes area, based or
grants made prior TO the earth
quake of 1911, was held good. The
State then instituted condemnation
proceedings. A jury fixed the value
of the company's holdings at ap-
proximately $4,000. BY the terms
of the compromise arranged bet
ween counsel, the State vii pay
only $4,000, of which $4,000 is
for tho obion county interest and
$l0,u00 for the Lake county inter-
est. According to a dispatch from
Union City, the settlement was eff.
in open court, with the
that a judgment for
$4,000 should be entered and that
neither side should take an appeal |
The entire lake will now pass
under the control of the State Game /
Warden, and it is believed that
there will be no further friction |
over the fishing privileges, such rs
has existed for a number of years
owing TO the efforts of the West
West Tennessee Land Company to
exercise management. The States
nership now appears complete |

'Indefensible and Intolerable.r

William J. Bryan, in an address
at Topeka, Kan. on Monday, quoted
President Wilson'S declaration that
private monopolies are indefensible
and intolerable." Mr.. Bryan fully
endorsed the declaration and ON
phasized it with his accustomed
vigor.
This declaration of the president
in regard to private m~onopolies has
the ring OF sincerity and bespeaks
the conviction that comes from a
study of the operation OF the system
said the effect upon the country and
upon the people who are Immediately
affected by it and its influences
The declaration is a broad one. II
covers the entire system of private
m~onopolies. making no exception IN
favor Of any private monopoly. In,
the opinion OF President Wilson ami
Secretary Bryan there are no good
private monopolies. Men Of good in
tentions may compose some Of them,
but however public spirited and
we'll disposed any of these men con-
nccted with private monopolies may
be. they cannot alter ar transform
the system into anything but a mem
ace to public prosperity and good
government.
Individuals may profit from the
system. but se~lfshness must domi-
nato its councils, ana communities
interests must yield to the systems
interests.
There is no exception to this,
There never was an exception aud
there never will be.
Private monopoly is not defensi-

A careful and honest study of the
system must convince the student
that it is indefensibie.

says: ut must OF necessity be in

The logic Of the proposition Is un.

in the opposition to private monop-
oily is a corollary Of the great demo-
cratic doctrine. Equal rights to

Not Old But wise.

The statement OF Elihu Root that
he must not be considered a presi-
dental possibility because he is too
old. evokes from the Cleveland
Plain Dealer argument as follows:
I'm 1916 Mr.. Root will be II.
And Il, as Mr.. Root i~nterprets the
American standard. is too old.
TT Is a fact that no American
septOagenarian has been elected
President. But that by no means
proves that a septuagenarian is in
capable by weight OF years to carry
the burden OF government.
Gladstone is considered the
greatest British statesman of the
last century. He was S3 when he
formed his last Cabinet and for the
last time assumed the responsibility
of ruling the British Empire.
