been driven back distance OF eight

of the Boys and Girls High Schools
this morning, the topic of his address
being, lis Cultural Education
Worth While" Or. snyder treated
the subject i'm terms Of the develop
ment and advancement of the human
race from the rude and savage hu-
man animal of prehistoric times to the
educated, refined and efficient man OF
the twentieth century. demonstrating
how and why this advancement and
Improvement had been the direct and
certain result of the mental and mo-
raj development of man by the train
ing and culture of the intellect. BY
training the mind man had been lifted
to higher ideals and endowed with the
power to branch out into new lines OF
thought and endeavor. The mind
made strong and more efficient by
cultural training had dominated the
world and had made the purely ply
sical operations of wrestling a living
from nature subservient and second
airy to the spiritual and intellectual
processes. which by the exercise of
trained intelligence utilized human
energy to greater advantage and ac-
complished the great Transformation
that separates savagery from ciyiliza-
ton. II men had never learned to
use the mind in the realm of pure
thought and had not so developed the
mind by intellectual exercise that it
could reason and speculate the man
of historic times would have differed
little from the primitive human ami
NAL who existed prior to the stone
age. If all human energy had been
concentrated upon the effort to do
practical things in more thorough
and more remunerative manner the
progress of the race would have been
retarded If not arrested altogether. DR..
Snyder made his talk as interesting
and illuminating as he usually does
any subject that he discusses and the
high school pupils and the small
audience Of patrons were entertained
and edited.

The MAKING OF
A FAMOUS
! MEDICINE
How Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound
Is Prepared For
Woman's Use.

A visit to the laboratory where this
successful remedy is made impresses
even the casual looker-on with the reli-
ability, accuracy, skill and cleanliness
which attends the making of this great
medicine for woman's ills.
Over $50, 900 pounds Of various herbs
are used annually and all have to be
gathered at the season of the year when
their natural juices and medicinal SUBJ
stances are at their best.
The most successful solvents are used
to extract the medicinal properties from
these herbs.
Every utensil and tank that comes in
contact with the medicine is sterilized
Aend as final precaution in cleanliness
~the medicine is pasteurized and sealed
in sterile bottles.
It is the wonderful combination Of
roots and herbs, together with the
skill and care used in its preparation
which has made this famous medicine
30 successful in the treatment Of
female ills.
The letters from women who have
been restored to health by the use Of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound which we are continually pub
fishing attest to its virtue.

A Discouraglnq Precedent.

There is nothing original about Mar
shall Won Hindenburg's boast that he
would drive the English into the sea.
In the Peninsular war Soult made the
same remark about the British under
Wellington that Won Hindenburg has
now uttered about the British under
Haig. Wellington did retire perilously
near to the sea, just as Haig has. But
Soult looked at the position and chang
ed his mind. Is Won Hindenburg, in
apparently still planning to give battle,
going to show less sense than his re-
nowned French predecessor ?-Chris-

UNITED STATES AND SCIENCE
on This Country and Interest
Expected to Continue.

Every few people realize that the
scientific activities of the world are
eentering in the United States, and
/ that they will doubtless continue to
10 so if material means be given to
keep up the work." said Father Charles
B. Moulinier, regent of the Marquette
university school of medicine, in a re-
rent interview in the Marquette Trib-
1ne.
"South America, for instance, is now
cooking to us for scientific leadership.
China and Japan are once more turn
ing to us. Great attention is being
paid to medicine in South America,
Buenos Aires alone having a medical
school with 5000 students.
'"The Wistar institute of anatomy, in
Philadelphia, is one of the most de-
dsive factors in turning the attention
pf the scientific world to the United
States. This institute has an endow-
ment which makes it possible to give
arge service to mankind. Just now it
is printing copious translated extracts
rO1n the medical journals published
and sending them to China and Japan.
Duplicates of the journals are also
pfsent to South America.
"A great deal Of research work is
being done by this school in the direc-
ton of discovering dyes. Certain
chemical dyes, formerly produced only
oy Gruebler Of Germany, are required
IN technical work. Wistar is now pro-
sucing dyes the equal of Gruebler's.
"It may be interesting to know that
much of this research work has been
lone by a young Philadelphian who
delved into chemistry for his own
pleasure and experimental in his pri-
vate laboratory. Wistar hearing of
some remarkable discoveries made by
him Immediately called him to the in
stitute, placing it's facilities at his dis
posal for this important work.

New Compact Fire Escape.

One of the boys aboard our navy's
fleet has invented fire escape which
is similar to the rope ladders, used
aboard ships. His principal object was
to provide a collapsible fire escape
which could be compacted and con-
veniently arranged at the window of a
dwNling. 1t consists of a container
hinged to the sill in such a manner
that by opening the window and fold
ing the container on it's hinges the
metal ladder may be unfolded and
dropped. When this operation is gone
through, a means is automatically pro-
vided whereby the ladder is held at a
distance from the walls Of the build
ing. The advantage Of such precaution
is obvious.

What Exporters Should Know.

A needle factory had sent to Aleppo,
Turkey, needles that were tied up with
green twine. The Mohammedan mer-
chant who had ordered them returned
the package, for the reason that the
use of the green, the color consecrated
to the prophet, for such purpose was
a derision of religion. Another con-
signment of the same factory to China
wrapped up in white paper was return
ed because the Chinese recipient would
not accept goods packed in paper of
mourning" White is the mourning col

You men who work long hours in
got to be big eaters, because your food
is your strength, and now, more than
ever, your strength is badly needed.
So guard your health. Be sure and
watch your stomach, for in the sum-
mer time nearly all illness can be
traced to stomach and bowel COM
plant. You, yourself, know how lia-
BILE man is to sunstroke if he goes
in the hot sun too soon after eating a
hearty midday meal, and also how
liable he is to sudden attacks Of stom-
ach miseries. So cool off in the shade
before going back to work. Don't take
chances.
Take care of your stomach, friend.
You know you can't work well with
your stomach out Of fix. "Safety first"
must be your motto, so send to your
druggist and get a big box Of EAT.
ONIC, enough for yourself and family,
yes, and the hired folks, too. It's
the wonderful new compound for the
quick relief of stomach and bowel mis-
cries. 1t was originated by II. L. Kra-
mer, the man who made millions Of
people happy with his first great rem.

Now, all you need do is to take a
tablet or two Of EAToNlc after your

those who take EATONIC say it makes
