DICKENS' "SITUATIONS."

Tfeo Similarity Bis Methods Im Wladlnar I'P His Plots. , It Is curious what a penchant Dickens bad for certain melodramatic situations, which seemed to his fancy so telling; that he repeated and reproduced them many times over. That bis works are all dramatic and conceived in the true spirit of the stage is plain from the vast list of adaptations. Each story has been adapted again and again and will bear the process admirably. , One method for winding up bis plot, to which he was excessively partial, was the unmasking of the villain owing to the betrayal of some confederate. The parties are generally brought together in a room by the more virtuous members. The confederate then emerges from bis concealment and tells a long story of villainy. We have this denouement first in "Oliver Twist," where Monks makes bis revelations. In "Xlckleby" Ralph Is confronted with ''the man Snawley and Squeers." In "The Old Curiosity Shop" Qullp Is similarly exposed. In "Barnaby Rudge" Haredale forces his hereditary enemy

to make revelations. In "Chuzzlewit" Jonas Is confronted with another betrayer. In "Copperfleld" Uriah Heep Is denounced and exposed by Mr. Mica wber. In "Bleak House" Lady Dedlock la similarly tracked. In nearly all the cases the guilty person goes off and commits suicide. London Spectator.

KILLS HER FOE OF 20 YEARS. "The most merciless enemy I had for 20 years," declares Mrs. James Duncan, of Haynesvllle, Me., "was Dyspepsia. I suffered Intensely after eating or drinking and could scarcely sleep. After many remedies had failed and several doctors gave me up. I tried Electric Bitters, which cured me completely.

A Curious Trail. All sorts of devices have been used to mark a line of march. A unique method or "biasing the trail" Is still to ,be seen In Africa, and a recent publication prints a picture of one of these memorials of the dervish raid. Arthur J. Hayes mentions the subject In his "Source of the Blue Nile." In 1880. after a fierce battle with the Abyssinlans. the dervishes pursued their foes as far as the lake district The mahdi's men bad small knowledge of geography and little togographlcal Intelligence. So the advance party. In order to mark the route for those who came after and also to guide the force on their return Journey, twisted the saplings along the way into living knots. The war ended, but the tied up trees grew and flourished, but un. coutbly twisted and distorted, and are now the only reminders of that uprising of the dervishes.

Take Hail's Family PlUa tor constl-

New York, Nov. 16. An intimation has come to the National health officials at Washington that Andrew Carnegie is about to give an enormous

sum for a campaign of eradication against pellagra, the mysterious "Lombardy leprosy," which, has appeared recently In Louisiana, Alabama and Mississippi and frightened the entire South. While there has been no definite announcement, it is said Mr. Carnegie's contribution will equal the $1,000,000 which John D. Rockefeller has given for the eradication of the hook worm (uncinariasis) in the South. The spread of pellagra is said to be equally as great as that of the book worm, but danger to the section affected is even greater. A Rule of Carnegie. Mr. Carnegie has a positive rule against discussing any of his benefactions in advance. This rule prevented the securing of any information of the proposed million dollar offer for pellagra today. It was stated that if he had such a philanthropy in mind it would be announced throughthe proper channels when the details of the plan of eradication had been worked out. Mr. Carnegie is known to have long been interested in the problems of the South. . He has an estate on the Florida coast, where he usually spends part of the winter, and through these

visits is thoroughly in touch with the section afflicted by the mysterious disease which is believed to be caused

by eating damaged corn. The recent gifts for the eradication of the hook worm and tuberculosis and the prospective gift for the stamping out of pellagra will be used as an argument with the next congress for action in favor of a school of public health at Washington. In discussing this matter a prominent official of the Marine Health Service said: A Bill Presented. "Two years ago the Public Health and Marine Hospital Service presented a bill to congress which carried a provision for the study and prevention of hook worm, typhoid fever, tuberculosis and rabies. It passed the senate without opposition, but was smothered in the house. This bill also provided for the establishment of a government school of hygiene at Washington, which was to be used for the instruction of state and municipal health officials. "To solve the problem of national

efficiency the government should sup

port special investigations in typhoid fever, tuberculosis and hook worm diseases, as these are the maladies mostly responsible for a weakened condition. The best way to do this is to establish a school of hygiene at Washington. It is the only thing left for the government, since private individuals have contributed so liberally for measures of eradication."

REQUIREMENTS Of SUCCESSFUL LIFE ARE VERE SIMPLE

Senator Beveridge Yesterday Tells the Earlham Students That Character, Honesty And Grit Are Required. ANY YOUNG MAN HAS A GOOD OPPORTUNITY

He Says Sincerity Is the Foundation of Success and That The Second Thing in Life Is Sound Courage.

Sexton, Verger, Sacristan. "Speaking of meeting the same thing under different names." said a clergyman, "reminds me of the old caretaker of an Episcopal church. This caretaker as he sat smoking his pipe on a tomb in the cemetery dismissed as trivial certain changes in the ritual. The good old creed keeps the same for all, said he. 'Look at me here. I used to be the janitor. The new parson called me the sextant. Dr. Thirdly give me the name of virgin, and the young man we've got now says I'm the sacrilege.

"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honorable, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatso

ever things are of good report; if

there be any virtue and if there be any praise think on these things." The above eighth verse of the fourth chapter of Philippians, formed the theme for an instructive, earnest and plain talk to the students of Earlham college yesterday afternoon by Senator Beveridge. "Intellect is not the chief thing in life," to quote the senator, "as it is some times thought. Character is needed, absolute sincerity, of speech.

character and mind; the ability to be

faithful to a cause; courage, determination, intellect and habits, all are essential as you students leave the port on the water of life." Gave College Yell. Senator Beveridge was met at the college by a number of students who gave several college yells and a number of "Insurgent," "Beveridge" and "De Pauw" yells. The senator being a graduate of that Institution.

President Robert L. Kelly of Earlham introduced the senator and in his introductory remarks said: "Earlham college is very much honored in having as her guest Indiana's senior senator. We welcome him for reasons specific and general. We welcome and honor him as a public servant who represents the people, because of his tactfulness and consistency; because during the last session of congress he was one of the few men to stand by their party, and with courage and grit to stand on common honesty proving that the promises of a great political party must not only be carried out, but is also a thing to stand upon. We welcome and honor him because our biggest football game of the season is with De Pauw next Saturday. "May the best man win," began the senator and this seemed to be the philosophy of the senators talk. He Defines Sincerity. "Sincerity, I assure you, is the foundation of all success. Sincerity is the capacity of being faithful unto death to a friend, family or cause. In a smart deal you may gain the deal, but you will loose your reputation. Sincerity is the foundation of all oratory. Never lie! Do not lie with your lips, but be truthful in your whole life. Intellectual sincerity is a fundamental principle, the foundation of all success is absolute sincerity. "The second thing in life and almost equal to the first is courage. If you seem to meet a stone wall of opposition, every time, some unseen hand reaches down and assists. Don't whine, no one is interested in that. Any man that will go Into a battle with the spirit that animated David in his battle with Goliath will win. The worst thing that can happen to him is to be killed and many men better than us have been killed. Courage is the ability to stand up and get shot to pieces. It is the gift of fearlessness. Determination is Third. "Determination is the third and" is equally essential. It is the "hanging on" and was one of the qualities of Napoleon and when he gave commands and his officers seemed to see no way in which to obey them, he commanded again and they obeyed and of course he won. "Habits are also important. Hamlet said that they were one's second nature. Let a man become shiftless in language and he will become shiftless in conduct. Be clean in speech. Speech is more important than dress. Drinking is foolish and there is nothing in it. I am not preaching a sermon. I am but pointing out some cold blooded fruits, some sums of life. Smoking decreases effectiveness. Chance For Young Men. Finally I have a message of hope. There is an open pessimism throughout the country, but it is not true. It is deliberately not true. There are more chances for young men than ever before." As an example of this Senator Beveridge pointed out several illustrations where young men were needed. He also related the story of Mr. McClure, editor of McClure's magazine, and of George Horace Larimor. editor of the Saturday Evening Post. In concluding the senator said: "You don't need a pull nor influence to get along in the world. You need a pure intellect, keep your souls sweet, be sincere and have courage and remember that the only happiness In life is useful activity."
