Make Mine a Matted Milk"

One hundred and forty y-one thousand, two hundred times a year this order is repeated by students of the Uni verSity of Wisconsin to Madison deal CTS. says the Madison Daily Cardinal
 These figures are not the result of guessWork, but are based on carefully compiled reports submitted by dealers in the university district.
 Some idea of the vastness of the consumption of Horlick's Matted Milk by the students of this one university alone may be gained when it is con sidered that the straws used in serv- ing would if placed end to end, form a line thirteen miles long, while the total amount of Matted Milk would fill a reservoir Of thirteen thousand gal lons
 The investigation also developed the fact that the students do not order Matted Milk merely as a delicacy or @ thirst quencher, but because they have discovered that it's highly nourishing and sustaining qualities enable them to make a satisfying lunch on a glass of Horlicks"
 The total amount annually expend- ed by the students ir this manner is $14, 120 and it is estimated that the saving through the resultant economy on restaurant checks represents at least an equal amount, or enough to pay all expenses for fifty students for one year at the university, or to buy two hundred students a high class li- brary of one hundred books each.

ONWARD.

Beneath this starry arch, Nought resteth or Is still; But all things hold their march As if by one great will.
 Moves one. moves all;
 Hark to the footfall!
 On, on, forever. Ton sheaves were once but seed; Will ripens into deed; As cave-drops swell the streams, Day-thoughts feed mighty dreamsS And sorrow tracketh wrong As echo follows SonA
 On, on, forever. By night, like. stars on high, The hours reveal their train: They whisper and go by; l never watch in vain.
 Moves one. moves all;
 Hark to the footfa1li
 On, on, forever. They pass the cradle head, And there a promise shed; They pass a moist new grave, And bid rank verdure wave; They bear through every clme The harvest of all time,
 On, on, forever.
