SAFETY OF CHILDREN.

With the opening Of school in both
town and country, a special safety
for children movement might save
many accidents. Read the following
to your children:
Before crossing q. street, always
stop and look both ways to see if
any kind of a vehicle is approach
ing. If there be one near, wait for
it to pass. Attempting to run in front
of any vehicle is very dangerous.
Gross the streets at regular cross
ings only. Drivers of vehicle usual
Iy expect to meet with pedestrians OF
crossings, but not between them. Dc
not walk in the street. Use the side
walks. Do not play in the streets
Do not try to jump onto any moV-
ing vehicle"
A placard similar to the above,was
posted in the schools at some places
last year, and it would be well fol
schools in this vicinity to post them
this year.

Deafness Cannot be Cured.

reach the diseased portion of the ear. There
is only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube

rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing Will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out OF ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an infancy

The printing press has made presi-

criticism. 1t has curtailed the power

NEWSPAPER POWER

AS the newspapers of the country
are conducted wisely or unWisely,
said President Arthur T. Hadley, OF
Yale, at the University of Virginia,
so will this government be run for
the best interests of the people or
against them. And especially is this
true, he said, in view of modern de-
vices of government, such as the in
itiative, referendum and direct pri-
maries. The success or failure Of
these agencies, he declared, repends
mainly upon the newspapers, for the
press has supplanted the politician
and the orator in forming and organ
izing public opinion.
President Hadley devoted most of
his lecture to a consideration of the
problems involved in the transition
in the forces having most to do with
the holding of public opinion, from
the tsecret councils of the machine
politician to the open discussion in
the newspapers. He found most Of
good in the change, but pointed out
certain dangers that are sure to fol-
low an abuse of the tremendous
power that has come to the press.
These possible dangers, he said, in
clude an effort to organize public
prejudice rather than the truth they
need; and a third danger, he said,
consists in impatience on the part
of the newspapers in regard to pub
lie men and measures.
These dangers, howerev, he said,
need be feared only when newspapers
get under the control Of INSCRIPTIONS
or unprincipled. men, and he added:
There are no more interruptions
men in the newspaper profession than
there are in any other. "-Typograph-
