Something, ~however, might occur which would delay the commencement of the work for a few years. The matter will now be up to the board of engineers, sitting in Washington. This board acts in an advisory cap- acity to congress on matters of en- gineering in the rivers and harbors, and congress usually abides by its advice. An Ohio Idea, Johns Hopkins University of Baltt- more, the first institution of learning in this country to adopt the true uni versity plan of all around education, has decided to admit women on even terms with men. This is a working back eastward of an idea in education which originated in Ohio. Oberlin and Antioch col- leges, the latter under the presidency of Horace Mann, were the first insti- tutions of collegiate rank to admit women and to make co-education a principle. Many colleges but few unt- versities have followed. Mummy Factory Unearthed. A mummy factory has been discov- ered in Montrouge, a suburb of Paris. The “mummies” are sent to Egypt, and thence returned to Marseilles. Many have been sold to museums in different countries.

T order to prepare yourself for the outing which you intend to take, and which you actually need, I most cordially invite you to call at my store and select wear- ing apparel necessary to be used while you are rusticat- ing. Take your wife and children out amongst the pines and camp on the bank of some limpid lake where they can enjoy life and liberty to the fullest extent—away from household cares and city restraint and poisonous dust! Such an outing may reduce the doctors’ and druggists’ dividends, but you and your family will reap their profits. C. H.
