REFORM IN SPELLING.

There is a movement on hand to reform Ensrlish soellinsr. It started in

the National Educational Association and is now permeating the rural schools. Prof. Iliser of our city schools is interested in the movement and ha?, sent us a program containing some of the suggested reforms. We give a short list here: Program, thorofare, prolog, Tho, thru, decalog. Altho, thruout, demagog. Thoro, catalog, pedagog. It is a difficult matter to remove old land marks but the suggestions for gradually simplifying our spelling is reasonable annd will be adopted into general use before many years go by. Nearly every other subject in the school curriculum has undergane a change and it is only reasonable that the subject of spelling should be included. This change, of course, should be gradual because it will have to overcome many prejudices. Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, President of Columbia University, is eminent authority on many subjects and is. a practical school man. Here is. what he says: . ' "No one who has followed the history of the movement to bring about a simplified spelling will fail to appreciate, I think, the cogency of the arguments for such a step which have been advanced by eminent philologists, or of the strong practical reasons which have been put forward by teachers and others. At the same time, we must realize that the movement runs counter to some of the strongest prejudices of the human mind, and that its advance must be by slow stages and probably along a broken, rather than a straight, line. While not competent to express an opinion on the subject from the philological point of vieAv, as a practical matter I am convinced that it is desirable to simplify our English spelling in many particulars. In my judgment, the wisest plan of procedure is not to outline a complete and logical scheme, which would certainly be rejected violently by the vast majority of people, but, rather to agree upon one or two simple and easy steps which can be taken. at once, and, little by little, justified to a larger public. Because of my feeling that this is the way to proceed, I have been glad to use in the Educational Review, for several years past, the simplified spelling of twelve words dealt with in the report of the special committee appointed by the Department of Superintendence of the National'Edueational Association, some years ago, and approved later by vote of the Department and by vote of the Directors of the National Educational Association itself.

Lights at the Table Go Out, But Guests Can See to Eat. (London Mail.) The very latest idea in entertaining hails from Paris and smart Swiss towns, where the thing now is to entertain your guests, if not entirely in the dark, at anv rate in darkness or semi-darkness all the time. At a dinner party the hors d'oeuvers and soup were served as usual in a brilliantly lighted apartment, and then, to the consternation of people who are new to the idea, the light goes out. Then the door opens and the servants come carrying brilliant ly illuminated dishes containing the fish, ad as each guest takes his or her

An automobile lifeboat has been adopted by the United States Life

point is important, because if it were otherwise the craft might run away and leave its crew struggling in the water, or they may be killed or wounded by the blades of the propeller. Instead it pauses promptly and the men are enabled to scramble aboard again. Like an ordinary lifeboat, the

The Names of the Committee ; to

Have Charge of Affairs Given Fine Attractions.

The Great Munny Carnival Com-

Ipany will arrive here from Michigan and spend the week beginning September 19th and ending September 24, under the auspiees of Richmond

Grove of Druids.

The Carnival company's location

has not yet been determined but it will be either on the site used by the

Ferari company, during the Red Mens Flower Moon Carnival, or the first

block of south fourth street. The matter has not yet been determined

bv the committee in charge.

The Carnival will be made attractive

in every way possible according to

the committee, absolutely no objectionable features to be allowed. The Mundy company is one of the oldest

Carnival companies extant, it is

claimed, and has always insisted on

giving clean and attractive shows.

The company has the entire season

booked up to the week of its coming

here, and only on a particular request

consented to come to Richmond, preferring to continue on its northern route.

The Druids' committee has been per

sistent in its effort to secure a first class attraction of this kind, and the result was the September booking.

The Druids' committee, which will

have complete charge of the carnival includes Oliver Long, Louis Muth, Harry G. Parks, Charles Tennis and Mayor Zimmerman.

CONVENTION

Of Preble County Christian Endeavorers Sept. 1st. The thirteenth annual convention of the Preble County Christian Endeavor Societies will be held in New Paris in the Presbyterian church next Thursday, Sept. 1st. This is quite a notable meeting and a profitable and interesting day is expected. A numerous attendance will be present from all parts of the county and a number of papers will be read and addresses delivered, which will doubtless be of much interest as may be seen from the program, which is as follows: Morning Session. 0:30 Song Service. 10:00 Devotional, Rev.

RELIEF IN SIGHT

Hay Fever Toxin is Discovered

Last.

at

Now that frost has appeared and

hay fever sufferers will soon find re

lief, it is well to know that a foreign doctor has discovered a toxin that will

cure the disease. The following dis

patch gives all the information:

Ncav York, August 30. Prof. W.

P. Dunbar, who has produced a serum

for the cure of hay fever, is in New

York, on his way to the St. Louis Exposition, where he will take charge of the German government exhibit

relating to hay fever and its cure.

He began to work on hay fever

about ten years ago, taking Hp that disease because he himself was sub

ject to it. "The disease is not a germ

complaint," he said. "It is caused

by the chemical action of certain kinds of pollen. In Europe rye grass makes the most, trouble. Here in the United States the dangerous plants

are golden rod and ragweed. Indian corn is also dangerous, though not to so great o degfree. The hay fever

season begins in August, just when

the pollen is flying.

"My remedy is a toxin prepared

like other toxins, by injecting poison

ous matter into horses. In this part of my work I foun a curious thing. Only ten per cent, of the horses we tried are sound and those sensitive horses were all throuoghbreds. A horse has to receive steady injections for ten months before its condition will yield the proper strength of serum. If this serum is mixed with albuminous poison and put into the eye of the person subject to the disease there will be no hay fever reaction at all."
