SAVED At CAFETERIA

WHEATLESS DAY, TOO
Daniel Boone Tavern and

in Food Conservation.

Eleven hundred and forty-two meat
less meals were served Tuesday at
the University cafeteria. The saving
was approximately eighty-five pounds
of meat. Not a complaint was made
to the management. and the students
ate thirteen dozen eggs, six cans of
Goldfish, twelve cans of salmon and
three gallons of oysters instead.
Yesterday was wheatless day there
and the 100 pounds of white flour
generally used was replaced by corn
meal i'm forms of cakes, mush and
bread. Graham mullins and waffles
were offered. The cafeteria does not
profit financially by the change, but
has the satisfaction of materially aid
ing in the food conservation move
ment
The Daniel Boone Tavern has been
serving chicken and corn mullins
every night this week to reduce the
demand for meat and wheat bread.
Next week. Tuesday will be a meat
less and Thursday a wheatless day
there, announces Manager Leonard.
The Athens Hotel has adopted
similar program. Tuesday, however,
was meatless only at night because
of the hotels inability to get fish to
substitute for meat.
Fraternities and sOrorities have
been conserving meat and wheat for
some time as have many boarding
houses.

More Convincing Proof.

When Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound was first introduced it's cur ative powers were doubted and had to be proved. But the proof came, and gradually the use of it spread over the whole country. Now that hundreds of thousands of women have experienced the most beneficial effects from its use its value has become generally recog- nized and it is now the standard medi- cine for women's ills.
 The following letteris only one of the thousands on our files.

CONDEMNED TO DEATH

This is not story of traitor or a German spy. It is the amazing recital of Joe O'Brien, about his terrible case of Brights disease. The doctors said it could not be cured. His condition was pronounced hopeless, not only by pri- vate physicians, but also by doctors at the hospital. He went nearly blind. On advice of physicians he started to a noted hospital in New Orleans to have an operation performed on his kidneys. But he never arrived there. He got so much worse on the train that the train crew put him off. think ing he was going to die. A good Sa- maritan took him in, nursed him and gave him medicine that restored him to health. If you are afflicted with Brights disease, or any disease of the kidneys or bladder, by all means write for a free copy of the Hobo" book let containing the story of Joe O'Brien, as well as sworn testimony from many others who testify they have been absolutely cured by the Ho- bo Kidney and Bladder Remedy.

lleI LNdL LIlcTS lS pOWCI HI CNA' VAI what courage can we face our prob lens when we realize that no subtle destructive force is pitted against us and that the only power evil can seen to have is that which we ourselves be- stow upon it.
 This truth is stated with great clear ness in a letter which Mrs. Eddy once wrote to friend, which was quoted ir The Christian Science Journal o1 August, 1912, in an article entitled "No Evil Power"
 "Did you but know the sublimity o1 your hope; the infinite capacity of your being; the grandeur of your out look, you would let error kill itself Error comes to you for life, and you give it all the life it has,"
 How Jesus Healed the Sick.
 We are now ready to consider one of the most important paragraphs in Science and Health, for it may be said to contain the "pearl of great price. It tells us in the simplest of words how Jesus healed the sick.
 "Jesus beheld in Science the perfect man, who appeared to him where sin ming mortal man appears to mortals' In this perfect man the Saviour saw Gods own likeness. and this correct view of man healed the sick. Thus Jesus taught that the kingdom of God is intact, universal, and that man is pure and holy" Science and Health D.. 476).
 This then must have been the un- derstanding which Jesus imparted to his disciples, which enabled them to duplicate his wonderful healing work. This is the understanding which today is enabling Christian Scientists to con front, undismayed, the appearance of disease and vice, and to rescue the un-

to relieve them of a single responsi- bility." "His mission was to reveal the Science of celestial being, to prove what God is and what He does for man." "The divinity of the Christ was made manifest in the humanity of Jesus" (Science and Health, pp. IS, 26, 25).
 Ignorance of Jesus Mission.
 Without doubt, the great error of Christian history lies in mankind's ignorance of Jesus mission. Mrs. Eddy's spiritual interpretation of his words and works reveals him as hu- manity's Wayshower, teacher and friend, rather than humanity's King. And when the race truly understands and demonstrates the facts involved in this interpretation, wars will be un- known, sin, greed, and hate will vanish from the land, and the prophecy of Isaiah will be fulfilled: "And the in- habitant shall not say, l am sick."'
 The failure of perfunctory religion to measure up to the joyous standard of Jesus Christianity was never more manifest than in the following inci- dent:
 A Christian Science practitioner was edeavorging to awaken to a larger, happier sense of things the bowed down thought of a wretched man who applied to him for help. The patient claimed to have been Christian from childhood, but in his misery he could discern not 6ne cheering ray.
 "Try to cling to some comforting verse from Scripture" urged his prac- titioner, Cor try to sing some uplift. ing hymn as you go about your work. :"

considerable pain to Miss Larson, the
kindergarten teacher. during the past
week and also prevented her from at
tending the convention at Milwaukee.
The football team went to Darlington
Tuesday afternoon to play the high
school team of that place, The poor
exhibition which they put up was
probably occasioned by lack of practice
during the past week and an apparent
lack of confidence in themselves. Oar
lington started off with rush and made
two touchdowns within few minutes
after the game started. Mineral Point
took a brace at the beginning of the
second half, played a better defensive
game and made two touchdowns. The
game ended with score of 80 to II in
favor of Darlington, The return game
will be played at the Fair grounds here
on Wednesday afternoon and promises
to be the most interesting game of the
season.
