My name Is .- Address Women who suffer with disorders peculiar to their sex should write to Dr. Pierce and receive free the advice of a physician of over 40 years' experience s skilled and successful specialist in the diseases of women. Every letter of this sort has the most careful consideration and is regarded as sacredly confidential. Many sensitively modest women write fully to Dr. Pierce what they would shrink from telling to their local physician. The local physician is pretty sure to say that he cannot do anything without "an examination." Dr. Pierce holds that these distasteful examinations are generally need less, and that no woman, except in rare cases, should submit to them. Dr. Pierce's treatment will cure you right in the privacy of your own home. His Favorite Prescription" has cured hundreds of thousands some of them the worst of cases. It is the only medicine of its kind that is the product of a regularly graduated physician. The only one good enough that its makers dare to print its every ingredient on its outside wrapper. There's no secrecy. It will bear examina tion. No alcohol and no habit-forming drugs are found in it. Some unscrup ulous medicine dealers may offer you a substitute. Don't take it. Don't trifle with your health. Write to World's Dispensary Medical Association, Dr. R. V. Pierce, President, Buffalo, N. Y., take the advice received end be well. Old Wake Forest (Continued from page 1) "The Baptist State Convention, which was formed in 1830, at its second session in 1832 ordered the purchase cf a farm for school purposes. Ac cordingly a farm of 615 acres was pur chased at a cost cf $2,000, and was rented out for the first year. "Prof. Wait and his family moved to the farm in 1834 and began the school. .The first student to enroll was J. M. Crenshaw, whose venerable face graces this auspicious occasion. At first the number was 16. which increased to 72 before the end of the year.

Albert Chevalier denies the report that he will soon appear in America under the management of William Mor ns, inc., and says ne nas otner plans. Henry B. Harris recently appointed Valentine E. Kennedy, formerly busi ne.ss manager of the "Third Degree" DeKoven Male Quartette. One cf the oest male quartettes in America today. This sounds like a broad statement but those who hear hem at the Auditorium Saturday night will say with one accord that they have tiever heard a better one. The DeKov en Male Quartette comes to us endors ed by press and critics all over the country. They are assisted by the talented Miss Smith, soprano, reader and pianist. "The DeKoven Male Quartette wonj the hearts of a big audience at the Bodley auditorium last night. From the outset the entertainment was ar tistic and clever and the audience was thoroughly alive to its every merit. In addition to several classics which they rendered with splendid temperament, the quartette sang such old favorites as "Dixie." "Carry Me Back to Old Virginny," and "De Sand Man," each fcf which' so captivated the audiencethat several encores were aemanded by prolonged applause. The voices har monize perfectly and evinced talent as well as superior culture and training." Staunton (Va ) Leader. Seats will go on sale today at Jor dan's.

The opposition was proba bly duo to Wuv and distrust of an in stitution under the direction and care of a leiiomination. Others were op posed to manual training in schools. "According to the meagre charter, which was limited to twenty years, there was no exemption from taxation and no right to confer degrees. So meagre was it that some of the trus tees were opposed to its acceptance. "In 1S38 a more liberal charter was granted without opposition and the in stitute became a college. "The degree to which it was con trolled by the trustees in the early days is shown by the following regula tions: Each student over 16 to be al lowed three cents an hour for work; three hours each day, except Sunday, to be devoted to manual labor; no stu dent shall be allowed to go to any store unless accompanied by some member of the faculty; six cows to be purchased for the institute; the fac ulty to be required to visit the rooms of the students. "Financially the school was a failure. At the close of the second session (1836) the treasurer's book showed that the institute was in debt $3,343.21. "Prof. Walt's influence was great and abiding. He was deeply interested in the welfare of the students in every respect. Those who were fit for col lege he urged to proceed. Out of the little band came many useful and in fluential lneii. "During the first year plans were made for the erection of a school building that was to be the finest of its kind in the state. The idea of a theclosrieal school was dropped even be fere the institute started. Of the 72 students who entered the first year only IS were professors of religion and only three or four were ministers. "In August a revival visited the schcol winch resulted in forty-five con versions."
