It depends upon you and the courage with which you band together to in fluence it, whether a man shall pro duce arama wnicn snail taxe piace among the proudest movements of that kind in any age'" Mr. Crane contended that there were not enough Shakespearean pro ductions at present and that commer cialism had much to do with the stage of today.

Bad Attack of Dysentery Cured. "An honored citizen of this town was suffering from a severe attack of dysentery. He told a friend if he could obtain a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Rem edy, he felt confident of being cured, he having used this remedy in the West. He was told that I kept it in stock and lost no time in obtaining it, and was promptly cured," says M. J. Leach, druggist, of Wolcott, Vt. For sale by Frank Hart and Leading Druggists. Tide Tables U.

In enforcing these provisions, however, the Chicago Board of Education has found "be cause of the recent depressions hun dreds of boys and girls are wandering the streets in search of work which they cannot find. When told that they must go to school, the children and ineir parents pleads tnat the sup port of their families depends on their getting work, and that under the law they are entitled to an unrestricted - j opportunity to look for it So perplexing has the situation be- come mat vv. u. isocline, supenn tendent of compulsory education, has made it the subject of a special re port, which he presented to Presi Schneider yesterday. In this, he urges that school principals should be authorized to give children over 14 the privilege of half-day sessions in order that they may have to look for employment.

Peculiarities of Bats. In one respect nt least bnt are the most remarkable of all the creatures possessing thy power of true flight. Bats, as most people know, are mam malsthey belong to the great class of "bigher animals" which comprises man himself. Moreover, it Is uot a lit tle remarkable Unit among tlie liost of extinct animals with which, thanks to j the labors of tfeolojjlsts. we are now ac- 3.9 quaiuted not one has been discovered 4.1 In any way connecting bats with other 'mammals. Thus bats stand alone, 'I while how and why they became vest- 20 ed with the power of flight are ques- 2.1 tlons shrouded In mystery. The frame-2-2 work of the bat's wing Is furnished by 2 3 the fore limb. Indeed, the bones cor 2.6 responding to those of our own hand 2.8 constitute Its most Important parts; 3.0 hence bats are known as chlroptera, or J hand winged animals. The thumb of 37 the bat Is free and terminates in a . ! . hooked claw, but the "Angers" are 0.8 enormously lengthened, while between J' them stretches a skin or membrane, to 11 which In certain species the bones of 2!o the tail give additional support. All 2.2 things considered, bats appear to be 'g better models than birds for those who g2 attempt to Attain flight by mecname. S.5 means. Scientific Amerlcun.

"I have an Idea, a glorious Idea!" cried the Inventor's wife. "One of those simple little Ideas wherein mil lions lie." "Yes?" said he, tossing the long white hair back from bis ears. "Pro ceed." "It Is a two pointed pen!" cried the lady. "A reversible pen. You write with one point till that Is worn out; then you pull the pen from the holder, reverse It and write with the other point." "Excellent, but"- "I should say It was excellent! For the same money, out of the same duantity of material, two pens instead of one. Where are your patent appli cation papers, James? There's no time to- be lost." The old Inventor shook bis head and smiled sadly. "Jenny," be said, "never try to im prove on the steel pen. The subject is too old. Too many minds have been ahead of you. Th:it Idea of yours for pen point at both ends was patented all over the world in 1809. The pen ap peared on the market In 1870. The people would have none of It. A fail ure, It was withdrawn. "But pehmiikers and the patent peo ple tell me that never a year goes by without the arrival of a hundred or so of excited letters from people who, like yourself, think that they have hit on an epoch makliiR Idea, a two pointed pen."
