Chauvenet was born on May 24, 1820, and died on December 13, 1870. having acquired a wide reputation during his life as a mathe- matician and the author of standard mathematical text books. In 1841 he accepted the position tructor of mathematics at the U N Asylum in Philadelphia, wher a of eight months’ training for midshipmen had been in- two years before. Here un- der the leadership of Willlam Chau- venet, the foundations of naval education were securely laid.

L. Lynch's closing days as manager of that play- house. While a resident of this city, Miss Skirvin made a host of friends on and off the stage. Of her the Dally Times says: “At last—a real, live, lovely heiress has joined our film colony Her stage name is Edna KEarle, and at! present she is working at Universal, under the direction of Ida May Park. But of course, it's her real name that counts, and that is Marguerite Skirvin, and her papa’s name is well | known to Bradstreet, being Willlam | Skirvin, capitalist, mine owner, and ‘proprietor of various oil wells in Oklahoma, as well as of a string of hotels throughout the East. Her brother, Willlam Skirvin, Jr., holds a prominent government position in Washington, D. C. Miss Earle has been a beautiful mystery to the West, ever since she came here a couple of weeks ago. Everybody knew she was very lovely to look at, that she had her own car and beautiful clothes, and that she had worked in pictures in New York. Also some of them dimly remembered having seen her somewhere before— and then suddenly remembered it was on the stage in Henry Savage's “Ex- cuse Me,” which was the first engage- ment she ever got. “But nobody could tell just who she was, She had no trouble in get- ting a position at Universal, because sho really had accomplished a great deal for so young a girl—she's only 20 now—and so deserved to get an en- gagement by reason of her talents and beauty. “But now the mystery is all ex-y plained. One day, out in Oklahoma City, lovely Marguerite Skirvin, just out of college, decided she was tired i of everything she was doing—that she wanted to work. But Popper Skir- vin couldn’t see it that way at all. So burgh to visit her brother. But she didn’t go to Pittsburgh. Instead she went to New York-—and got an en- “Excuse Me’” the mo- ment she poked her pretty head in at “And then she changed her name. Who would want to go on the stage name like Skirvin, anyhow?

Maybe he saw her on the screen; anyhow he forgave her. “Seriously Miss Fdna Earle is one of the most beautiful actresses on tho screen today, as well as one of tho most talented. She has made a suc- cess of which even Popper S8kirvin can be proud.” AH! BACKACHE GONE! RUB LUMBAGO AWAY Rub Pain from Back With Small Trial Bottle of O1d “8t. Jacobs Oil.” Ah! Pain is gone!
