I was giving a lecture to my Juniors
on the life of Shakespeare. I was
sitting on one of those folding chairs
which are only too willing to live up
to the name applied to them, and you
can Imagine my feelings when I sud-
denly found myself seated on the
other side of the desk, while I was
looking over the top of It.
The pupils politely waited to see if
I were Injured before they laughed.—

who figures on —ee-hee! hee!—mar

Plateau Shelf Has Strange Crescent-
Shaped Formations That Are
Packed Hard.
As one makes the ascent of the
Andes from the Pacific port of Mol-
lendo, Peru, following the line of the
Southern of Pent railway, the climb
to the divide is broken by two great
steps or wldespreadlng shelves of des-
ert or pampa.
On the first of thesa steps, about
two hours' steep climb from , the sen,
and at an altitude of from four thou-
sand to five thousand feet, are located
the famous drifting sand hills of Peru.
The plateau Is here about twenty
miles wide, the air thin and dry nnd
no trace of vegetation to be seen, only
these glgnntie crescent-shaped sand
dunes dotting the pampa as far as
the eye can see.
Composed of fine gray crystal sand,
they gleam white against the brown
of the desert, nnd their horns point
toward the prevailing south wind of
this region. They are from fifteen
to twenty feet in breadth across the
thick part of the crescent and some-
times one hundred feet from horn to
horn. So tightly Is the sand packed
that the feet of the horses or mules
make little Impresslou on It.
The mightiness of the pen Is due
to the Ink.
Dodson's Liver Tone Is ft pleasant-
tasting, purely vegetable remedy*
harmless to both children and adults..
Take a spoonful at night and wake up
feeling fine; no biliousness, sick head-
ache, acid stomach or constipated
bowels. It doesn’t gripe or cause ln»
convenience all the next day like vio-
lent calomel. Take u dose of calomel
today and tomorrow you will feel
weak, sick and nauseated. Don’t too*
Fact Brought Out by the War Bound'
to Have Great Effect on Future
Generation*.
“Music makes morale," and a©
promptly music was enlisted In the-
war. Song lenders were appointed at
all the training camps nnd Immedi-
ately the glory of renl music waa
spread before the millions of men
ns a reinforcement and old to the-
idealism which had brought them Into
the war.
From then on the soldiers had mu-
sic Individually, In masses. In groups.
They made It themselves, it was made-
for them by our finest artists. They
had phonographs. They had record*
by the millions. The process of musi-
cal education was swift, and the pu-
pils were apt. Now they have returned
to us men who know good music
as n large part of their life nnd en-
tertainment, have become reasonably
apt performers themselves In a great
many cases. What must this mean to
the country? It must mean that the
people ns a whole are readier than
ever before to listen to it us well at
to be taught it.
Action the Main Thing.
