Our course gives us music instrumental and vocal. It gives us an intellect ual treat and something to de- ugns ne eyes. , ow wnai, is mere mat can oe oojectea to. jxiarvin v imam who comes en the 8th of November is giving his lecture in Y. M. o.

Where is there any ground for objection We have these concerts and lec tures for our good and pleasure and if there them, will is any wrong in some one please tell us where it is. Development In our life it is necessary that we consider the three parts which make up our nature. We have the intellectual, the animal and the spiritual and these parts should be developed in order that we may get tne greatest and best out of each of them. Unless we have a sound body we can not develop our greatest strength in tne otner parts, a man may be a great animal as to strength but a pigmy in intellect or spiri tually and he may be a weakling as to bodily strength and a giant in intellect, ; But these ". two things aje nothing iif e.-ftre of when we see school houses . we say that is for teaching the tr tellect. When we see athletics or work, we say that will devel ope a man in oody. strong as an ox is current expression When we see the church, we say that is for spiritual development. But when we see the' disparity between the attendance at school and the attendance at church, when we see how little time is given to religious duty, we rea lize that most people do not seek to devolope their spiritual nature as they develooe intellectually or physically and the knowledge of the thines of the SDiritual world are woefully in the minoritv. We have no all around develop ment. Hook Worm The News a few weeks ago had an article on the Hook Worm and its influence on the people of bur mountain district. The papers of the last week1 had the announcement that John D. Rockefeller has given a million dollars to a commission of which the State Superintendent of In struction of North Carolina has been invited to form a part as al so Prof. Claxton,' who is known to so many of us and that this commission is to study the ques tion and try to remedy this great disease which is attacking the people of our Southern Jand. We may say that the head of the Standard Oil is taking the money off the people but on the other band he Is returning it in large sums lor tne benent ol tne peo ple. We trust that this com- rr ?sion will find the means to itcp this dread desease which is sapping the life from the young rf our land and Is . sending a ;.i cat many to untimely graves i W'x them more subject to rcu'.osis and kindred deseas The Commission is one that . ires respect and we are sure 1 do i' i work -well.

"That way I get some queer glimpses behind the scenes said he. v "The other day, after I finished writing up a policy, the saloonist said to me, 'What will you have to drink: " ' V "I thanked him and told him I didn't drink.' V' 'That's all right, he replied You're wise. I don't either. .' 'What's that' said I; 'you keeping a saloon here and don't drink vour own iroods what's tfce reason" "Re sweDt his hand around toward his shelves and sneered 'think I'd drink all that dope there? - A man's nothinir but a fooi to drink that lot of slop, That's the worst stuff on eaith alliusel oil and everv other kind I0f noison von ever hoard of T think' too much of my stomach to pour such-garbage into it.' What are you selling it to other men for, then, if you know fit to drink?" His an swer was what I expected: 'For the monoy that's in it,' Another day I happened in at a very elegant 'family liquor store' on the South Side a place where nothing was sold to drink on the premises, and m hich made a specialty of catering to the trade of ladies out shopping for their home tables. As I talked with the proprieter he happened to mention in some way that he was a teetotaler. I asked him how that was. He answered with a crisp laugh: Oh, I know how the stuff is made.' And he was selling high grade goods for the best trade." A gentleman who heard these stories remarked: I have a business acquaint ance who is connected with the Schlitz brewery. He told me the other day that the Schlitz Company is practically out of business South of the Ohio R1v 4MB3etL selliae virtually nothing in all the Southern re gion." ' v-;:.V'-v Probably . the best known criminologist and alienist in the world was Cesare Lombroso, who died at Turin, Italy, on Tuesday of last week. Lorn broso, born in Venice of Jewish parents seventy three years ago, was educated at the University of Turin and became an army surgeon after he had gained con sideration reputation as a scien tist while still a youth.' In 1862 having been called to the depart- ment mental diseases in the university or f adua, ne Degan rllc ol,uu'ca Ui ,Vaauiv ,VU1UU 'BU to his fame. His theory that criminals are born to their fate and that they should be treated for disease instead of being pun ished, for a long time aroused much more ridicule and criticism than approval But while' the idea never has been fully accept ed, the world'came to recognize in Lombroso a genius whose Ut terances were always worth con sideration. It is interesting" to recall that Lombroso many years ago investigated the disease pel lagra, tracing it to badly grown maize, t or a long period ; Pro fessor Lombroso held a chair at the University of Tu rin,. also maintaining his medical practice. In later life he became interest ed in r spiritualism,' but is said never to have definitely accept ed the theories of the spiritualist sect.
