RUTH EDWARDS,
With the "Dor Thome" Company, Playing at the Astoria
Theatre Today.
Kennedy said:
"The better outlook for the drama
which so many of us are beginning to
realize is only a part of that great
movement of God among the nations
which is one of the most refreshing
signs of the glorious day we live in.
T.....- V. ..... ....... ... C A anl.nM
unrest, a good, healthy, pugnacious
discontent with eisting conditions,
And there co"P'ed w'tn a v''ent determination
to make them better, and perhaps the
most striking thing that has already
been accomplished is the fact that
we do begin to see the good in one
sense or another, lies back of it all
"The truth is that this same 'better
outlook for the drama' is within you.
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.
Augustus Thomas said the next
big play that is coming, or coming
very soon is of the Jew. Xot the
Jew of Shakespeare's time, not the
Russian Jew or the suffering, perse
cuted Jew, but the great American
jew, wno is pnnantnropic, tar-seeing
ana aoove an, sweeny domestic.
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

Compulsory Education Law in Illinois
For Children Betwen 14 and 16.
CHICAGO, May 9,-Under the
nrovisions of the new Illinois comoul-
isory education law, children between

school or at work. 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. The parental school
regulations, he suggests, should be al
tered so that children up to the age of
16 mav be admitted fthp nrespnt limit

Whoop'nj Cough.
"In February our daughter had the
whooping cough. Mr. Lane of Hartland
recommended Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy and said it gave his custom
ers the best of satisfaction. We found
it as he said, and can recommend it
to anyone having children troubled
with whooping cough," says Mrs. A
Goss, of Durand, Mich. For sale by

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.

A Pen Point.
"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." New Orleans Times-Democrat.
