Can YOU say Yes?

A professor in The University OF
Chicago told his pupils that he should
consider them educated in the best
sense of the work when they could
say yes to every one of the IA ques-
tons that he should put to them. 1t
may interest you to read the ques-
tons. Here they are;
Has education given you sympathy
with all. good causes and made you
espouse them?
Has it made you philosophical?
Has it made you brother to the
weak?
Have you learned how to make
friends and keep them?
Do you know what it is to be a
friend to yourself?
Can you look an honest man or a
woman straight in the eye?
Do you see anything to love in a
little child?
VIII a lonely dog follow you in the
street?
Can you be high-minded and happy
in the meaner drudeeries Of life?
Do you think washing dishes and
hoeing corn just as compatible with
high thinking as piano playing or
golf?
Are you good for anything to your
self? Can you be happy alone?
Can you look out on the world and
see anything but dollars and cents?
Can you look into a mud puddle by
the wayside and see the clear sky?
Can you see anything in the puddle

Can you look into the sky at night

CUT THIS OUT
Old English Recipe for Catarrhal
Deafness and Head
Noiees

II you know someone who is
troubled with head noises, or Catarr-
nal Deafness, cut out this formula,
and hand 1t to them, and you will
nave been the means of saving some
poor sufferer perhaps from total deaf
ness. Recent experiments have proved
conclusively that Catarrhal Deafness,
mead noises, etc., were the direct
cause constitutional disease, and
tnat salyes, sprays, inhalers, etc,
merely temporize with the complaint
and seldom, If ever, effect a perma-
nent cure. This being so, much time
and money has been spent of late by
q noted specialist in perfecting pure,
gentle, yet effective tonic that would
quickly dispel all traces of the catarr-
hal poison from the system. The er.
fective prescription which was even
tually formulated, and which has
aroused the belief that deafness Will
soon be extinct, is given below in un-.
derstandable form, SO that anyone
can treat themselves in their own
home at little expense.
Secure from your druggist OF. Par
mint Double Strength), about 75c
worth. Take this home and add to 1t
n pint OF hot water and OF. of gran
ulated sugar; stir until dissolved.
Take one tablespoonful four times a
day.
The first dose should begin to re.
lieve the distressing head noises,
headache, dullness, cloudy thinking,
etc, while the hearing rapidly returns
as the system is iavigorated by the
tonic action of the treatment. Loss OF
smell and mucus dropping in the back
of the throat, are other symptoms
that show the presence of catarrhal
poison, and which are often entirely
overcome by this eff1cacious treat
ment. Nearly ninety percent. of all
ear troubles are directly caused by
catarrh; therefore, there must be
many people whose hearing can be re-
stored by this simple home treatment.
Every person, who is troubled with
head noises, catarrhal deafness, or
catarrh in any form, should give this
prescription trial.

SICK SKINS

No matter how long you have been
tortured and disfgured by itching,
burning, raw or scaly skin humors,

The suffering usually stops right there!
Healing begins that very minute,
and in almost every case your skin gets

Resinol Ointment is not an expert

which proved go wonderfully successful
for skin troubles that it has been used
by other doctors all over the country
for twenty years. No other treatment
for the skin now before the public can
show such record of professional APP
proval. Every druggist sells Resinol
Ointment t50c. and $l0o), and Resi-
mol Soap (25c.). They do wonders for
pimples, blackheads, dandruff and
chafngs, and are comfort to skin
tortured babies.

First aid work and safety first
methods were the subjects Of a paper
read before the members OF the High
Tension club: at. their monthly meet
ing ct Hawkes. hall last night by DR.
n b. Dorsey, Jr. The paper was sup
plemented by talk given by DR.. F.
B. Dorsey, ST., who briefly emphasized
some of the main points In the lee.
ture.
G. A. Sears, superintendent for the
Mississippi River Power company,
made a short talk in which he told
how the employees OF the power
house have made use of safety first
methods and of their value to the
men.
The meeting was the first that has
been held in, this city for several
months The club has held meetings
at Ft. Madison, Warsaw and Hamilton
since the last one in this city. AL
though no especial entertainment had
been placed on the program there
we're about. one hundred members OF
the club present.
DR.. G. Walter Barr, who at the
time of his resignation at the water
mower office was made an honorary
member of the club, made farewell
talk to the members Of the club be-
fore leaving this morning for Des
Moines. DR.. Barr said that he con-
sidered his honorary membership one
OF the finest gifts he ever had re-
ceiyed. He expressed his regret In
parting from the club and the hope
that he would often come ia contact
with the members in the future.
In his paper on safety first, Dr.. Dor
sey. Jr, said. Safety first and first
aid are two of the important advances
being made in this country. 1t Is to
the public utility corporations we owe
a great deal OF its popularity. 1t is
a sad thing that the public did not
insist on the preservation of life long
before it has The safety first move
meat and first aid work has for It's
principal object the saving OF life and
preservation of injured parts of the
body. Corporations have found from
the cold dollar and cents proposition
that this movement is a great saving
because good men accustomed to q
certain work cause a financial loss to
the company when new man has to
be broken in, in addition to the ex-
pense of caring for the injured"
He then outlined the proper pro
cedure IN case OF accidents of vari-
Gus kinds. Dr. Dorsey's paper was
very interesting to the public utility
men who felt they were'3reatly bene-
fitted by the information they received
from his paper.

OPERA COMPANY
GOES BANKRUPT
National Of Canada, in Which Jesse
e. Baker of This City is Inter-
csted, Has Filed
Proceedings.
LIABILITIES ARE s15O,945
This Was the Second Opera Com.
pany in TWO Weeks to Seek
Hep In the Bank /
ruptcy Courts.
LIABILITIES ARE $15O,945

The National Grand Opera company,
OF which Jesse E. Baker OF this city,
was one of the promoters, has filed
bankruptcy proceedings in the courts
at Chicago. Mr.. Baker had his shal e
of financial woes last season when the
company had hard time on its west
ern road trip. There are suits pend
ing in the district court here against
him, by some OF the members of the
company, asking judgment for certain
amounts said to be due.
The Tribune yesterday contained
the following concerning the bank
|ruptcy proceedings of the National
al company:
The Chicago Grand Opera company
was followed by two weeks into the
bankruptcy courts yesterday by the
National Grand Opera company OF
Canada. The National company weat
on the rocks in Denver last spring
while covering part Of the same west
ern territory in which the Chicago
company met with such disastrous re-
suits.
Both companies were advertised In
Denver at the same time, but repra-
sentatives OF both companies de-
MED there was rivalry between the
two or that conflicts in dates had been
arranged purposely. The National
company was organized in Montreal
by Max Rabinoff Of New York and was
taken over and replaced on new
financial footing in the fall of 1913 by
Dustan Collins of Oak Park, and Jesse
E. Baker of the Auditorium hotel
All Property Seized.
Its western itinerary covered part Of
the route taken by the Chicago COM
pany, and 1t was to have come to
Chicago about the time the Chicago
company returned from the western
trip. After giving two performances
at Denver on February II, 1914, how
ever, the funds Of the company were
exhausted and the scenery, costumes,
music scores, and other things Of
value were confiscated by the city
authorities there for failure to COIN
plete the engagement. The manage
ment found itself with nine weeks of
unexpired contracts on its hands with
practically no assets. Among those
who held unexpired contracts were:
Leo Slezak, tenor, 5000 a perform
ance. :s.sS
Giuseppi segura, baritone. $3.50
week.
Giuseppi Gaudensi, tenor, $500 a
week.
Luisa William, soprano, 1926 week.
Rosa Olitska, conrralto, $3.50 week.
Maria Claessens, soprano, 1920
week.
1. is said the comrany went banl1-
rupt because Of the Lon G jumps it was
compelled to make. Mr.. Collins re.
fused to discuss the causes Of the
failure and did not wish to comment
on the report that war between the
company and the Chicago organization
had resulted financially disastrous ~
both.
The liabilities of the National COM
pany are scheduled at s150,945. Tho
petition was filed in the United States
district court by Attorneys Stansbury
ard Charles, representing Collins and
Baker.
