lATIll AND GREEK ARE OMTHE WANE Earlham Professor Believes Ancient Languages Will Neyer Be Popular Here. Professor Charles Henry Haile, assistant in the department of ancient 'classics at Earlham college, gave an interesting chapel address Friday morning in which he made the statement that the study of Latin and Greek languages never would be adopted as the chief part of the educational system in this country. "The classics are studied as a part of the mental training of the students," said he. "It Is the difficult grammar which trains the mind, the same as other sciences do. As a help in studying the English language, a knowledge of Latin and Greek is very beneficial, for a better understanding of the English words through their derivations is thus obtained. However, it would be a needless waste of time to adopt this exceedingly difficult method of learning the English language. "The classics have been the backbone of education in past years, but today are classed as a minor branch of education. In England the aristocracy seized the grammar schools and made the" rates so high that they became institutions of the privileged classes, and only the wealthy man's sons could attend. ' Today the middle classes are in power and the classics are losing the important position they have held for so many years. England makes the claim that she is the greatest nation in the world in matters of education, but this is not true. Germany and France lead the world in education today. The reason for this Is that the middle class rules in these countries."

"For seven years I fluff eredr everything. I was in bed for i four or five days at a time every month, and so weak I could hardly walk. I had cramps, backache and headache, and waa BO nervous and weak that I dreaded to see anyone or have anyone move in the room. The doctors gave me medicine to ease me at : those timer, and said that I ought to have an operation. I would not listen to ;that, and when a friend of my husband's told him about Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and what it had done for his wife, I was willing to take it. ' Now I look the picture of health and feel like it, too. I can do all my own housework, work in the garden and entertain company and enjoy them, and can walk far as any ordinary woman, any day in the week. I wish I could talk to every Buffeting woman and girl, and tell them !what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Gompotma has done for me." Mrs. '&EMA Bcthune, Sikeston, Mo. ., Remember, the remedy which did this iwas Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable fCSompsond. It has helped thousands of women who have been troubled with displacements, inflammation, ulceration, tumors, irregularities, periodic pains, backaehe, that bearing down feeling, indigestion, and nervous prostration, after all other means have failed.

La Notes, at the Murray. general and the drama, should see the dramatization of Homer's "Odyssey," ( which will be presented at the Palace on Monday and Tuesday evenings of next week, Nov. 4th and 5th. This is an opportunity to see a special feature film, as it is termed, prepared at an expense of $200,000 in Italy and which gives the most dramatic incidents of the great Greek poem. It Is one of the finest things that has ever been shown In the moving picture theatres of this city and no doubt will receive the patronage it deserves. The Murray. 'The old Italian setting for the4 Melani Sextette at the Murray this week .is not the least of that act's attracj tions. The entrance, supposedly to an old castle, lends atmosphere to the musical arrangement, which is accentuated by the native costumes, the Italian dress being invariably, picturesque with its color and tinsel. The j violinist is possessed of undoubted tallents, as shown in his solo numbers, and the ensemble singing is unusually good. The sketch "A Slight Mistake," is an amusing little half-playlet which is merged into a singing and dancing number, and the other acts are diverting. "The Thoroughbred Tramp." hile playing one of the Western cities last season with "The Thoroughbred Tramp," Miss LeBter was the unconscious cause of a strong argument on the part of several goodhearted ladies in the audience. It seems that the ladies were of the opinion that the actress was not old enj oogh to travel alone and they were about to appeal to the authorities and have the performance stopped and the child placed in some suitable institution. Another lady-whor was - seated near them and who was personally ac quainted with Miss Lester, assured: them that she was old enough to travel and that she had a competent guardian in the person of a 6ix foot husband. This seemed to satisfy them for the time being, but they were not thoroughly convinced and after the matinee they insisted on being taken , back on the stage and introduced to Miss Lester and her husband. ' Christie McDonald Coming. One of. the most interesting theatrical announcements so far made for the local season Is that concerning the coming to this city of Christie McDonald, one of the leading comic opera stars, in her great success, "The Spring Maid," on Saturday evening, November 23rd, at the Gennett. Miss McDonald, who is now playing a successful engagement at the Colonial, Chicago, will, during this month play a week of one night stands, and that this city will be included Is a cause for congratulation. "There could be no better medicine than Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. My children were all sick with whooping cough. One of them was In bed, had a high fever and was coughing up blood. One doctor gave them Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and the first dose eased them, and three bottles cured them," says Mrs. R. A. Donaldson, 'of Lexington, Miss. For sale by all dealers. Advertisement.

NIB ON FACE Developed Into Sores. Would Almost Scratch Himself Raw. Cuticura Soap and Cuticyra Ointment Completely Cured Him. Wathena, Kan. "My child scalp trouble became bo bad that I waa ashamed to have anyone see him. Bis head had a solid scab on it. He also had a terrible breaking out on bis face which waa gradually growing worse. The eruption waa like pimples which developed into sores when he scratched which he did almost constantly. Baby would almost scratch himself raw. "I had used several different kinds of salve, none of them helping in the least bit, when I saw the Cutlcura advertisement in the paper and it made me think of the good results my sister had when she used It for her children. I had only used Cutlcura Soap and Ointment about two weeks before I noticed that the sores were almost entirely gone and it must have been a month or six weeks he was troubled before I began the treatment. lie would get easy when I would put the Cutlcura Ointment on him. Cutlcura Soap and Ointment completely cured him and he has a clear complexion now. I also use Cutlcura Ointment on the older children's beads and find it leaves the hair soft and silky."

(Advertisement) ROLLING THUNDER. Why the Rumble at Times la So Long Drawn Out. The prolonged roll of thunder Is readily explained by comparison with a volley fired along a line of troops. Suppose troops to be drawn up on a line in such numbers as to extend for a. mile and ordered by a signal that all could see to fire at once. One standing at the end of the line would hear the report of the musket nearest him Instantly. He would hear the others successively. Thus a report 550 feet away would come to him In half a second, and he would not hear the last report for five or six seconds after the gun had been fired. This would produce a sort of roll, which would gradually Increase In Intensity. If the listener stood exactly midway between the two ends of the line the reports from both ends wonld reach him at once, and the sound would be but half as long In reaching him as if he stood at one extremity. If the soldiers formed a circle there .would be one sharp explosion. Flashes of lightning may be considered as representing three lines of troops along which the explosions occur at the same time. Consider the .variety of distance and position of the listener and we account for the variety of sound in thunder. In mountainous regions the rolling Is augmented by reverberations or echoes.

BY W. H. Q. Most elaborate preparations have been made by "Shorty" Shreeve and his company of workers for the pleasure of members and their families rt the "Ladies' Night" - entertainment given this evening. Every member should show his appreciation of the occasion by being present, accompanied by his wife and daughters. A very interesting and profitable meeting was held last Saturday night. President Harrington struck " a keynote when he stated as long as he was president meetings would be held the last Saturday night in each month. This is as it should be. Meetings are necessary and important. They should be held regularly and a good attendance should be in evidence. The committee on ritual reported last Saturday night, recommending that the printed ritual adopted by the National Association, be adopted as the post ritual. Their report was adopted and now meetings will be conducted according to the rules of that book, and members initiated according to the work outlined therein, unless dispensed with for sufficient reasons which will probably be frequent. President Harrington, in his flights of fancy in one of his noted oratorical efforts, which he frequently indulges in, be it said most creditably, referred to the great (?) work of your humble Press Chairman, in various capacities he has occupied as a member of Post C. Your Press Chairman is intensely human and th bosom of his fifty cent union suit swells with pride when honorable mention is made of his efforts. It is a beautiful dream cleverly put by the flowing efforts of our worthy executive, but tho facts of the situation, sad' on our part to relate, does not bear but the beautiful picture so deftly drawn by our Executive head. While, '"Yours truly" by the kindness of numerous presidents has had the chairmanship of various committees and the work ha3 been done, yet much credit must be given to the members of the committee outside of the Chairman. Chas. W. Morgan. Elmer E. Lebo, Theodore Hill, John B. Hegger, and various other hard workers for Post C have been in a large degree responsible for committee work being done well. As an humble number, of the Post, as secretary and treasurer, president, chairman of the board, etc. I have always felt my utter insignificance and unimportance when watching "Shorty" Shreeve, Elmer E. Lebo, Roy Browne, Frank, Highley and others performing the duties of the arrangements comCHICHESTER S PILLS J5T Fill, in Ked and 4I.U asetaUfcVCpV VJ bo.es. saM with Blue Ribbon.

Mr. and Mrs. "Shorty" Shreeve. "S. T." Lebo. and "Pete" Holmes, were among the guests at a Hallowe'en surprise party pulled off on Thursday night for the benefit of Horace Kramer. Several "stunts" not calculated to lend dignity and solemnity to a funeral service were in evidence, among which "Sorrel" is accused of eating everything in sight including twelve "dogs" and a quart of cream. Suffice to say that these members of Post C hardly ever receive a duplicate Invitation to the same place. Mr. and Mrs. John B. Hegger spent two days in Bayton last week, visit- ! ing relatives and friends, and also do ing some shopping on the side. The thanks of the Post are due Elmer Lebo for the large Commandians coffee urn donated.
