At the end of the first term, as I was rather young, my people took me away. I returned In January, 1S84. as a member of the class of '86. I left and graduated at Princeton in the class of '87. "I can't recall all the placeg I roomed Mrs. Sheridan's. Professor De Motte's, Mrs. Hurnett's, and two or three others. 1 am a member of D. K. E. and was initiated at De Pauw. lrobably I should not have answered your questions so fully, as I can't imagine why you should be interested in details, had not your letter stirred up so many delightful memories that have long beon dormant."

INVESTIGATION OP THE DEATH OP AN OLD Tippecanoe County Authorities Seek Information Concerning Death of Oliver Tyrie. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. LAFAYETTE, Ind., Feb. 6. -Coroner Morrison and Prosecuting Attorney Flanagan have to-day investigated the death of Oliver Tyrle, aged seventy-two, a veteran of the civil war, whose lifeless body was found at the home of his son Scott Tyrie, two miles southeast of West Point.

X now keep a bottle of the 1 Golden Medical Discovery ' on hand. and. when I catch cold, take few doses, which keeps me in perfect health. As builder up of lost strength and vitality I do not believe your Discovery' has an equal.Accept no substitute for "Golden Medical Discovery."

My doctor finally prescribed Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey, and with the first dose Improvement set in and hope revived.
