A Traveling University "I believe that a considerable part of the

progress now being made along the and political reform is traceable to of the Chautauqua." The author tence, being W. J. Bryan, is in a

what he is talking about. And it is doubtful if very many, equally familiar with the Chautauqua field, will question the truthfulness of his remark. The Chautauqua has been in existence just forty years. It grew up out of a camp-meeting which was held on the shores of Chautauqua Lake in New York State. Bishop Vincent of the Methodist Church and Lewis Miller, a citizen of Akron, Ohio, divide the honors of fathering the movement. These men were familiar with the old-fashioned camp-meeting and saw in it the promise of a larger and infinitely more influential popular institution. Through a process of gradual transformation, one thing after another being added and change following change, the

Birds in Yards Appeal Mightily to Imagination and Pen of Iliff

BY EDGAR ILIFF. The Palladium's editorial on our common door-yard birds was fine, especially the suggestion that we see that they have a plentiful supply of water in pans on the lawn. It is surprising how much water the birds will use in your yard if they learn that they can depend on you for supply. What they drink is not much but the quantity they use in bathing will surprise you if the experiment is made. They soon learn where they can bathe and will come in large numbers for early morning ablutions and evening plunges. The robin is the greatest bather of all our door-yard birds. So ardent a bather is he that I supposed that he came from England where the tub is the household god. He is the favorite door-yard bird of the peasant, very much loved because he hangs about the barn and house all winter and hops on the window sills and begs for food. He is the bird of German folklore and fairy tales and the children are taught in their schools and catechisms to feed and protect them. Robins Breed Twice. The robin is monogamous, and attachment of pairs extend beyond the mere breeding season and is stronger than in most birds. Two broods of young are produced each year. The father is most devoted to his mate and helps her in every way in his power. The greatest enemy to robins is not the bad boy with an air rifle, but the common cat who prowls and lies in wait for the poor, silly and stupid young ones who have been pushed from the nest and told to go out in the world and be a man like pa. So few young robins seem to escape this prowling feline scourge that it is a wonder the species survives. For this reason I am against cats. They cun't sing. What good are they? They are the very essence of selfishness. They love nothing but themselves and self-love is not love at all. The cat has only one virtue. You can't make a slave of him like a dog or a horse. For this reason the Romans used him as an emblem of liberty. He was sacred to the Egyptian religious cult and during the Jewish captivity under Pharaoh the great idle cat demanded a nice juicy Hebrew every morning for breakfast. Stories About Robins. Robins are said to have red breasts because they attempted to pluck the thorns from Christ's brow and were splattered with the sacred blood. Some robins carried dew to the suffering in hell and were burnt on the breast by the fires of that place. Robins flourish in Asia and Africa and are considered fine singers and warblers. Judging from the few feeble warbles they get off here we may conclude the African and Asian musical taste must be very low. What few notes we do hear from the robin are sad and melancholy. Black birds are not much given to bathing, in my observation. I have seen but one bathe in the past ten years, although large drinkers if they come to drink. They are very intelligent, however. I have seen them carry hard crusts of bread to a pan of water and soak them so that they could eat them. Do birds and animals reason? Now reasoning is but a process from the known thing to a conclusion or hypothesis and so on from hypothesis to another known thing. Prof. Henry Smith Williams in his "History of Science," says that the animal who can not make accurate, scientific observations of its surroundings and deduce accurate scientific conclusions from them will soon pay the penalty of its lack of logic. No animal within the range of its intelligence is less logical, less scientific in the application of that knowledge, than man. The deer does possess scientific knowledge differing in degree only, not in kind, from the knowledge of Sir Isaac Newton. The old Cartesian theory, now exploded by Huxley and Darwin, was that animals are mere automatons, and are no more conscious than a garden rake or pumpkin. No dog, it Is still maintained by some writers, knows that he is a dog. That's nothing, politicians seldom know that they are jackasses. We do not contend that a donkey can edit a newspaper (but he can try) or a cat cook a meal of victuals, or dog Tray fill the constable's office, but look at Washington City and Congresh..' How do we know that animals do not reason? Haa any man, with all his boasts of, the entire universe having

old-time denominational, religious meeting has now blossomed forth into the modern Chau

tauqua. So rapidly is the movement growing, there will be held in the country this year eight hundred more Chautauquas than last year. It is estimated that between four and five million persons enjoy these programs annually. We say "enjoy" advisedly because we cannot believe the American public would spend $14,000,000 a year for the privilege of hearing the 1600 lecturers, musicians, magicians and other talent who adorn

the annual program. The Chautauqua is at once a vacation, a place of recreation, and a traveling university. In the old times the famous man took up his residence in some spot, Stratford-on-Avon, Weimar, Florence, Athens, or wherever it chanced to be, and there he stayed. If the people wanted to hear him or see him, they had to go to him. But owing to the Chautauqua, this situation is reversed. The people no longer go to the mountain; the prodigious and powerful ma

Iaeiaaa, hBn line of moral the influence of this sen position to know

chinery of the Chautauqua circuits carry the mounin to the people. Bryan, Champ Clark, Vice-president Marshall, Russell Conwell, and all the other noted men, go about among the people. To the inhabitants of isolated villages and remote country districts is accorded many of the privileges which once were to be had only in the largest cities. Richmond can feel proud in having been one

of the pioneer

been made for him to pillage, destroy and corrupt, ever entered the mysterious realm under the beautiful dome of a dog's skull? Is it not the height of arrogance and egotism for man to say that the bird's song and the beasts back were made especially for him? Did the Creator make nothing for Himself? Does not the bird tell his love in song that he may win his mate? No man can be a poet without love for birds, their flights and their songs. It is the poet who walks by shallow rivers to whose falls melodious birds sing madrigals. It is the poet who sees the lark at break of day arising from sullen earth, singing hymns at Heaven's gate. It was the deep poetical soul of Christ that drew parables from birds and flowerB. It was Burns the poet of nature and the master singer of the common lot, who turned his lyre to pity for the "wee helpless thing" the bird,; "who delights me to hear thee sing, in merry months of spring." He pities the old dying birds. "What comes of thee? Where wilt thou cover thy chattering wing and close thy eye?" Always Leads to Better Health.

Amolox, the new remedy for eczema and all diseases of the skin, is curing thousands of eczema sufferers that have been unable to find relief after trying everything else. A well-known physician, who had a patient with a bad case of eczema of the scalp head almost entirely covered with scaly sores rapidly becoming bald, reported after one week's treatment with the Amolox prescription, that the hair stopped falling out, scalp was rapidly healing and a new growth of healthy hair just starting. Quoting the exact words of the doctor, "That Amolox is great stuff." j Amolox is a clean, harmless liquid that is applied to the skin and stops all itch and burning instantly. Will cure eczema and all skin troubles and will clear up a muddy complexion, or pimples on face in 24 hours. All sufferers from eczema, salt rheum, tetter, acne, barber's itch and pimples on the face should go to their druggists at once and get a bottle of Amolox. If you are not satisfied, it will not cost you a cent. A. G. Luken will refund your money if not satisfactory. PARASOLS and UMBRELLAS REPAIRED AND RECOVERED DUNING'S, 43 North Eighth St.
