All indications points towards a large attendance and a prysperous year. President B. F. Allen's administration during the first year of his presidency was so phenomenally successful that the Board of the annual meeting paid him the well merited compliment, one unparelled in the history of the institute—of electing him for two years This act on the part of the Board of Regents, and the President's own strong personality have done much to establish confidence in the progress of the institution the Regenjs are to be congradulated also upon the far sightness that prompted them to advanced step which will make it possible for the President to work at long range for the best interest of the young people of our state in his care.

The Little Country "TIMES" It;s no sixteen-page edition that expresses big men's views, And it's not filed with essays, nor with telegraphic news. It is 'n't printed daily, with an extra every hour. And the editor's not bragging of his influenance and power, It may have faults and errors, but all of these I will forgive For it's printed in the country, way back where I used to live. It is only issued weekly, with Magazine put up in country style But when it arrives I gladly put the dailies dowd awhile I see again the faces of the frienps that I use to know In the dim and distant fancies of the old happy days long ago. There are never learne tssays on the questions of the day. But it says that "folks" are looking for another month to pay. It may be crude and homely.—that same little country printed sheet, And the make up of its pages may be rather obsolete It is damp when I unfold it, and the print is sometimes blurred.

A BIT OF ROMANCE A BIT OF ROMANCE Their friendship was rather the result of a forced mutual dependence than anything else, and they drifted into it before either realized the turn events were taking. At first it had been nothing more than an interchange of a few remarks on leaving the hotel dining room in the morning, and an occasional chat on the piazza after supper. From this it became a regular thing to saunter together down to the boat landing for a pull across the lake before the sun made outdoor exercise impossible. Then, because the mail came at 12, it suited them both to linger under the shade trees on the lawn until the distribution of letters began. It was on these occasions that they compared notes upon the subject of summer resorts in general and Fairview Springs in particular. They were there for the same reason—rest and change of air. Both were eager to exchange the quiet of the place for the rush of their every day life. It was not easy for him to shake off the thought of his neglected law practice and it was equally hard for her to forget the halffinished manuscripts calling for attention in her desk at home. With a frankness which was not flattering and which would have surprised either under other circumstances they only discussed their dismay over the prospect of remaining two months or longer at Fairview and bestowed their most ardent pity on all new-comers to the Springs. If in the beginning he had accepted the situation blindly, he was the first to realize it in its full significance for, argue with himself as he might, there was at least no overcoming the disagreeable truth that he had given his promise to one woman and his love to another. In his inmost soul he knew he had no right to feel that perfect sense of happiness which had lately come to him. It was only when he was alone that conflicting emotions took possession of him. When he looked into her steadfast eyes he was conscious that she had moved him as no other woman had done. He did not tell himself that he had never loved until now; but knew it was because he wished he could undo the past, and this had never been the case before. He heeded her always, he would reason with himself, but whenever he used this argument he felt that she would be the first (could she know it) to assure him that he was striving after the shadow and not the substance. He was a weakling, trying to depend on her strength. A cablegram calling her home—her sudden departure one morning—these were things to recall her to the reality of life. A formal little note of farewell, two or three faded roses—and a memory were all he had to tell of the summer. Rudely awakened from his dream of happiness, he was like a man proing in the dark. "The right way!" he said to himself. "Which is right?" With his face buried in his hands, he thought the matter out. The spell of her presence was gone, but its fragrance remained She is also fighting out the battle alone. It is strange that actuated by the same feeling and arming along the same lines they should have arrived at such widely different senses. BARGAIN STORE.

Laxakola for Babies.—It is the best and most effective remedy for children, BEST because it is pure and safe being made entirely of harmless ingredients. BEST because it is non-irritating and never grips or causes pain or irritation. BEST because it is sure and never fails. BEST because "Children like it and ask for it." BEST because its tonic properties are so good and so strengthening that it keeps the little ones in fine, hearty condition. It is a dangerous thing to give little babies violent catharsis that rack and rend their little bodies. DON'T DO IT—give them LAXAKOLA. For constipation, coated tongue, simple colds, restlessness, loss of sleep and fever it is invaluable. A few drops can be given with safety to very young babies, and it will often relieve colds by expelling the wind and gas that cause it. It will aid digestion, restlessness, assist nature and induce sleep. Great relief is experienced when administered to young children suffering from diarrhea, accompanied with white or green evacuations, as LAXAKOLA neutralizes the acidity of the bowels and carries out the cause of the fermentation. "My baby is 4 months old and is teething. He was sick and I tried a good many things, but nothing seemed to relieve him. I had a doctor, who said it was inflammation of the bowels, and that I would never pull him through if he had the sick. Then he was getting worse, stopped giving him medicine, and could keep nothings off his face with cold and very much, and used to scream when he had a tachy fit; it did not know what it was to close my eye day or night. I gave him a few drops of LAXAKOLA and it relieved him. I gave it to him a few times, and it worked like a charm, and he no longer restraints all night. He is a great deal better looking, baby since I gave him LAXAKOLA, and I think if it, another knew how good it was, that would give nothing else to their rich bodies." Laxakola for Young Girls on the threshold of womanhood, has been found invaluable. When they become pale and languid, face bloodless, eyes dull, head aching, feet and hands cold, appetite gone or abnormal, and their systems generally run down, they need building up, and their blood needs cleansing. Give them LAXAKOLA; its gentle bowel action to cleanse, and its tonic properties to build up the system, will show immediate and most beneficial results. It acts promptly, surely but gently on the bowels, and while stimulating the liver to increased activity, its tonic properties strengthen the nerves, renew vitality and restore color to the face and life and animation to the whole system. It is the only tonic laxative that strengthens and tones them up. Laxakola for Mothers.—It is particularly valuable and useful to women, especially mothers, as it is a gentle and safe remedy to use during all conditions of health whenever their peculiar and delicate constitutions require a mild and efficient laxative and tonic; while to nursing mothers, worn out with the care of infants and whose systems therefore are particularly susceptible to disease, LAXAKOLA directly appeals. It clears the complexion, brightens the eye, sharpens the appetite, removes muddy and blotched condition of the skin and cures sick headache to a certainty by removing the cause. To women suffering from chronic constipation, head-aches, biliousness, dizziness, sallowness of the skin and dyspepsia, LAXAKOLA will invariably bring relief and a positive and permanent cure. What Mrs. R. Lup, Pugh, R. Palestine, O. Bov, 125, says about LAXAKOLA. "March 11, 1901. Received your free sample, it has done so much good, send me a 46c. bottle." March 28. "Bottle came safe, did me a lot of good, draggle here don't keep it, so enclosed it 46c. please and me quickly another bottle. The last bottle did me so much good I want another at once." April 18. "Enclosed it 46c. for one more bottle LAXAKOLA. It has done much good." Laxakola for Old Folks.-In the Autumn and Winter of Life, when the various organs through long years of action have become more or less sluggish, it becomes necessary to stimulate them by some remedy best adapted to that purpose.

Short Talks On Advertising ByCharles Austin Bates. "You wouldn't plant seed in the garden and never go near it again." A shrewd advertiser said to me recently: "I like to advertise in papers which charge a good, stiff, extra rate for display and for the insertion of cuts. The fact that they do this prevents a good many people using them, and as a consequence, my ads are very much more prominent, for I always pay the extra price and use the cuts and display." Advertisements should never be prepared in a hurry. There ought to be some particular time set apart in each day, or each week, for the consideration of this question. Do not wait until the last minute, and then them, and as a consequence, my ads are very much more prominent, for I always pay the extra price and use the cuts and display." Advertisements should never be prepared in a hurry. There ought to be some particular time set apart in each day, or each week, for the consideration of this question. Do not wait until the last minute, and then write something hurriedly, run- and with almost the certainty of failing to get ad advertisement in a good paper may possibly do some good—a good ad in a good paper will always pay. It isn't such a hard thing to write good ads; it is mainly a question of taking time ning the risk of making mistakes, and with almost the certainty of failing to get a really good announcement. A bad advertisement in a good paper may possibly do some good—a good ad in a good paper will always pay. It isn't such a hard thing to write good ads; it is mainly a question of taking time enough and giving the matter the requisite amount of thought. Do not say you haven't time, because this part of the business is just as important as any other. In one sense, it is more important, because without it the business cannot amount to very much.

In The PATENT RECORD, an illustrated and widely circulated journal, consulted by Manufacturers and Investors. --- I saw a notice the other day of an advertisement which had been run continuously in identically the same form since 1866. That advertisement may have done some good, probably did; but to bring really adequate returns, advertising should be freshened by frequent changes of copy. I have recommended frequent changes to a man, who said: "Yes, but our newspaper charges us extra for composition if we change our ad oftener than once a week"—or once a month, as the case might be. That doesn't alter the case at all. The advertisement should be changed, and, if it costs a little more, it costs a little more, and that's all there is of it. It will pay to pay the additional charge. "Do not say you haven't the time." It is mainly a question of taking time enough and giving the matter the requisite amount of thought. Do not say you haven't time, because this part of the business is just as important as any other. In one sense, it is more important, because without it the business cannot amount to very much.
