Candidate Hughes Obliged To Forego All Luncheons New York, Sept. 4.—Charles E. Hughes, republican candidate for the presidency, will not attend formal luncheons on campaign trips here- after, according t6 an announcement at republican national headquarters here tonight. Affairs of that kind on the candidate’s western trip proved too great a strain, it was said. Are Medicines Liquors? A certain class of prejudiced and jealous doctors call patent medicines only alcoholic beverages. They will tell you that such and such a medi- cine contains as much alcohol as a glass of beer or a certain quantity |; of whiskey; but they do not mention that the beer or whiskey is swallowed at one draught, while only a small quantity of the medicine is taken at one dose, At the same time they will use alcohol quite as freely and many in four or five times as great propor- tions in their own prescriptions. Such standard remedies as Lydia E. Pinkham’s .Vegetable Compound use barely enough alcohol to preserve the root and herb extractives, too lit- tle to have injurious effects, and the medicine can be had, if desired, in a non-alcoholic form.—Advertisement.

It was the| most bewitching assemblage of peda- | gogic pulchritude since the merger o” the two Omahas, according to the statement cf an attendant. The chat- ter of 1,000 teachers ceased instanter | when the superintendent raised his! right hand in token of silence. Superintendent Graff, in his address referred to.a movement tending to standardize certain phases of educa- tion, particularly the determination of results, “The speedometer of my automo- | bile may indicate the speed 1 am trav- | eling, but it will not tell me where 1| am going nor whither I should go,” said Mr. Graff in his illustration of the futility of applying any exact | standard for school room efficiency. | He told the teachers that physical | equipment, text books and course of | studf' will neither make nor mar the | results of a teacher, but it is rather | the teachings of the teacher which | count in the final analysis A Text Book Author Talks. | Prof. Howard R. Driggs of Salt| Lake City, teacher of English and author of schoo! text books, inter- ested and entertained the teachers| with a presentation of his ideas of the | importance of English in the schools. “The great binding force among teachers is the subject of English, because every teacher is a teacher of English,” said the visitor. “The whole | problem of reading is to teach the child to think while he reads. Read-| ing is the open sesame to the great| world of thought. | “Eliniinate your non-essentials anc connect everything you teach with life. Cut out and connect up. We have gone from a pioneer diet of the three R's to a Thanksgiving table of plenty. The child is tgrutened with mental dyspepsia. “Our ears are tuned to recognize certain sounds. The other day my son stopped me on the husiest corner of Salt Lake City and told me he heard a certain bird singing nearby, In a moment he showed me the bird upon a wire. Probably he was the| only one of a passing throng to rec- ognize the note of that bird. But if I should have dropped a dime on the sidewalk how many do you suppose would have recognized the sound and turned to observe what became of the dime?” A teacher on the second row whis- pered to her companion, “I guess all of us would recognize the sound of a dime at thie time of the school year.” ! Introduces New Principal. Superintendent Graff - introduced Edward Huwaldt, new principal of South High school, who made this sage observation: “If more of us grasped the child’s viewpoint of life, most of us would be teaching rather than just keeping school.” Assignments for the new school year were announced. The schools will be started Tuesday morning.

Mr. Cobbey of the First| Christian Church Preaches | Labor Day Sermon. | GOD ALWAYS A WORKER | I believe that God joined the North and South America by a narrow isth-| mus as a challenge to man,” asserted Rev. Charles ‘E. Cobbey in a Labor day sermon at the First Christian church Sunday. “The narrow isthmus petween the two oceans stood as an eternal ob-| struction to commerce. Only by great toil and labor could it be opened. | The United States accepted God’s | | challenge and the canal stands as| Gij {hat the accident was unavoid- a monument to the dignity and glory of labor.” God Himself is and always has been | a worker.He is not the usual idea of | a king, sitting in imperial idleness on a throne.

Sufferers who could scarcely hear a watch tick have had their hearing restored to such an extent that the tick of a watch | was plainly audible seven or eight | inches away from either ear. | Therefore, if you know someone | who is troubled with head noises or catarrh, or catarrhl deafness, cut out this formula and hand to them, and you will have been the means of say- ing some poor sufferer perhaps from | total deafness. The prescription can | be prepared at home, and is made as 75¢c worth. Take this home and add % pint of hot water and 4 oz. | of granulated sugar; stir until dis- solved. Take one tablespoonful four | times a day. The first dose should begin to re- | lieve the distressing head noises, head- ache, dullness, cloudy thinking, etc., while the hearing rapidly returns as the system is invigorated by the tonic | action of the treatment. Loss of smell | and mucous dropping in the back of | the throat are other symptoms that | show the presence of catarrhal poison | and which are often entirely overcome by this efficacious treatment. Nearly | ninety per cent of all ear trobles are | said to be directly caused by «:a\arrh:j therefore, there must be many people | simple home treatment. Every person who is troubled with head noises, catarrhal deafness or ca- | tarrh in any form should give this pre scription a trial--Advertisement. Most Modern and Sanitary Brewery in the West.
