how they have had their hearing re-
stored to such an extent that the tick
of a watch was plainly audible seven
or eight inches away from either
ear. Therefore, if you know Of some
one who is troubled with head noises
or catarrhal deafness. cut out this
formula and hand it TO them and
you will have been the means Of
saving some poor sufferer from per-
haps total deafness. The prescrip-

LOGANSPORT. Ind, June 8
The centennial picture of Indiana
which is being shown mere is one of
the best pictures of its kind that has
ever come TO this city and was re-
ceived with great enthusiasm. The
manner in which Lincoln earned his
first dollar is shown, the removal
of Lincoln 10 Illinois, the log camp
political meetings, the Indian raids,
removal of the state capital and the
life of the people, was all shown and
brought forth repeated laughter or

CHICAGO AND BOOZE

CHICAGO AND BOOZE.-Chica-
go is broke again. The popular way
to get the money is rum, so raise the
saloon license. Cochran is right. We
are'aH reformers of the other fellow.
Instead of suggesting other ways to
get the money than from the sa-
looms, the reformer saloonkeepers
want to stop music, singing and
women from the saloons.
Their motives are so plain and sell
fish that it is little wonder that they
cannot get the support of any of the
aldermen. Music, singing or women
are not bad in themselves, or in COM
bination with each other or men. If
drink and music are bad for women
they surely are bad for men. If that
is so, as the saloonkeepers think, the
answer is plain: Stop the drink, or
prohibition.
If some of the saloonkeepers feel
that they are justified in fighting for
their own selfish existence they
should profit by the experience of
other reformer saloOnkeepers. Ne

DESERVE A VACATION

A few weeks vacation during Au-
gust will mean more to a man who has
worked hard the rest of the year than
a whole summer of wandering around
the mountains, lakes or seaside will
TO a person who has not worked hard.
To enjoy a vacation one must do some
thing to deserve it.
Nor is it necessary for such a per-
son to go a thousand miles from home
fer his vacation Two or three weeks
off in his home town will bring him
countless pleasures to cheer the rest
Of his laboring year.
The value of a vacation is in direct
proportion to the change it intro
duces into the persons life, mainly
from the mental viewpoint. 1t doesn't
make so much difference where the
body goes for this period of rest. The
important thing is whether or not the
mind of the man has the attitude
necessary to a good vacation. If
a man has been bored throughout
the year by the thought that he has
nothing interesting to do. he will ex-
perience a poor vacation.
He who most appreciates the round
of daily work during the year derives
the greatest advantages from vaca-
tion. He is the man who goes to each
new place with eyes wide open and
mind used to taking into consideration
the real things of life He wastes no
time longing to be anywhere else than
where he is He gets the heart of
vacation.
If man doesn't deserve a vacation
he has no right to one.

BEGINNING with the six weeks sum-
mer School of Science. which opened
July 3. 1895, with thirty students, the
enrolment in the University summer
session has steadily increased, except
in 1897 and 1911. Originally Univer-
sity students were not given credit
for the summer work, but with the
payment of fees made necessary by
the failure of the state to appropriate
the usual funds, regular credits were
granted
While officially the first summer ses-
sion dates from 1895, in 1894 courses
we're offered in English, Latin, Greek,
modern languages, physics, chemistry,
and biology. The announcement stat
ed that board and room might be OBJ
tanned from $3.50 to S4 a week, al
though two years later, the minimum
was changed to $3.50. The work contin-
ued for about six weeks, but the time
of beginning courses varied from June
s to June Is. No enrolment record is
reported
In 1895 the legislature made the
first appropriation for a University
summer session. amounting to $4,000.
1t was announced as an educational
experiment unique in Missouri, where
summer schools had fourished be-
cause no tuition was charged and spe-
cial fees were with the discretion of
the teachers.
The next year an unofficial School
Of Languages, privately conducted,
was added for the benefit of teachers,
and two terms extended over twelve
weeks. Eighty were enrolled in the
School of Science, and no record of
the School of Languages appears.
The announcement for 1897 explains
the value of training in shopwork,
which had been placed in the curri-

A NEW CONSTITUTION

When the Republic framed the
questions it has been asking candl-
dates for legislative offices, it had no
desire to make them easy to answer,
so that they might be honestly but un-
thinkingly assented to without giving
any real indication of the convictions
of those who answered puon the great
issues of the day. We abhor that kind
of journalistic crookedness. On the
contrary, the questions concerning
the budget system and code reform
were so framed-as glance at the top
of the next column will demonstrate
that the candidate answering them in
the affirmative would do so with full
consciousness of what was involved in
the reforms considered.
These questions clearly and bluntly
inuuire whether those who answer are
in favor of the constitutional changes
necessary to install the budget system
and give effective code reform. The
number of these who have failed to
answer "Yes" to these pointed inquir-
les is so small as to be negligible.
Missouri desires new Constitution
The desire has not come about from
anv general retlessness or vague hank
ering after new and untried things:
such a spirit is not characteristic Of
this State The desire for new Con-
stitution is entertained by the most
substantial and progressive people,
and il is perfectly definite in its char
acter. There are few Missourians who
are not interested in some sort of i'm
provement Cf our governmental or
business or legal machinery which is
not rendered impossible because an
'rrhaic Constitution blocks the waN-
The present Constitution blocks the
introduction of a sensible business
system into State finance; it blocks
the way to simple and fundamental
code reform! it blocks the way to
tax and assessment reform desired by
the overwhelming majority of our peo-
pie. The school teachers have pro-
nounced against it: the bankers have
pronounced against it, And candi-
dates for the Legislature from both
parties disregardin,g the proverbial
timidity of the office seeker and think

THE NEW YORK Sun

Munsey paid $3,OOO,OOO for the good
will of the people when he bought the
New York Sun. Munsey is rich
enough to have started new paper
in New York City and nodded it into a
strong organ. but what he wanted was
a newspaper that already had the
confidence and trust of a large num-
ber of persons. He could not afford
to wait on the slow growth of a new
journal; that is why he spent his S3.-
100000.
That he will retain this good will
is practically certain. He was wise
enough to keep Edward P. Mitchell
on the staff Mr.. Mitchell has been an
editorial writer for the Sun since the
days of Charles A. Dana. He also
yetained William c. Reick. from whom
