The first public library advertising

inference in this country was held
inder the auspices of the Advertising
Association of Chicago in the red room
the Hotel Lasalie, May 2!i. It was
a success from every standpoint and
is probal ly the beginning of another
national movement similar to the
church advertising conference held
under the same auspices a year ago.
Librarians, representatives of cham-
bers of commerce and advertising as-
sociations were present from twenty-
lire cities representing eight different
tates. Among the cities represented
were Detroit, Kansas City, Indianapo-
lis. St. Paul, Des Moines, Sioux City'.
Dubuque, la.; Madison and Kacine,
tVls.; Emporia. Kan.; Danville,
Springfield, Joliet. Bloomington,
Bockford and Freeport, 111., and New-
ton, Mass.

Value •( Advertising.
One of the objects of the conference
was to bring librarians into closer
touch with advertising clubs, associa-
tions of commerce and other business
organizations, that these organiza-
tions might be of service tp the li-
braries in opening them to greater
usefulness. The value of advertising us
a means of better acquainting the
public with the libraries and what
■ they have in stare was, of j course,
emphasized throughout the entire
program.
Action was taken before the ineet-
Iteg closed instructing the chairman
to appoint a committee composed of
ope representative of the Chicago Ad-
vertising association, one from the
American Library association, one
An Exp*rim*nt With a 8ort of P*rp*t-
uai Motion Effect.
A novel experiment in the demon-
stration of perpetual motion is to be
j>erformed simply. A glass beaker
about six Inches high and four inches
in diameter to tilled with water to the
height of about four and a half inches,
and two and one-half to three ounces
of commercial aniline arc added, which
will sink to the bottom of the vessel.
The temperature of the beaker and
its contents Is now raised to 170 or 175
degrees F. by means of a burner, when
it will be observed that the aniline will
rise to the surface of the water, from
which it will hang In a mass of curved
outline. Almost Immediately the sus-
pended aniline commences to alter in
shape, and gradually a large drop an
inch or more iu diameter detaches it-
self from the mass and falls through
the water. |
And now, the detached drop having
fallen to the bottom of the beaker,
comes the surprising part of the ex-
periment. The fallen drop is seen grad-
ually to rise to the surface, where it
Joins the mass from which it previous-
ly broke away. At once another drop
commences to form and, having be-
come detached, falls and rises in the
same manner ns the previous drop.
So long us the temperature of the
water is maintained at 170 degrees or
over this procedure continues.

the religion of the Chinese as well as a
great number of other peoples oj^he
orient. The doctrine ia a complex sys-
tem of moral, social, political and reli-
gious teaching built up by Confucius
on the ancient Chinese traditions, and.
although its author lived more than
five centuries before the birth of Christ,
it is still perpetuated as the state reli-
gion of the Chinese down to the pres-
___ ent day. Confucianism is a religion
from the Chicago Association of Com- i without ‘positive revelation, with a
merce, MY. Legler, chief librarian of
the Chicago Public library, and Mr.
Ratto, from the Chautauqua field.
This committee will meet soon ana de-

organizations throughout the country
in better cooperation with their re-
spective public libra ries.
The committee will also decide upon
some definite advertising and pub-
licity plans that will be practical for
both the large and the small library.

Ferdinand and Isabella, he planted the
Spanish flag, which bore the arms ot
Gastile and Leon. He also had with him
the flag of the expedition, which was
white with a green cross In the center
and the letters F and Y under each arm
of the cross respectively, and above
leach letter was a golden crown.

popular worship is centered in offer-

of duty is extended beyond the sphere
of morals proper so as to embrace al-
most every detail of dally life.
Philippine Fruits.
There have been found la the Philip-
pines two fruits entirely unknown to
Europe and even to America. One of
these Is the durian, which grows on a
lofty tree somewhat resembling an
elm, is about as large as a cocoanut,
has a shiny shell and contains a
creamy pulp which combines some of
the flavors of delicious custard with
those of a fine cheese. American sol-
diers in the Philippines have dubbed
the durian the “vegetable limburger.”
The other rare fruit is the mangosteen;
but the exquisitely flavored liquid it
contains has not yet been successfully
preserved for shipping abroad.

(By ,L. W. Bower, M. D.)
Backache of any kind is often
caused by kidney disorder, which
means that the kidneys are not work-
ing properly. Poisonous matter and
uric acid accumulate within the body
in great abundance, over-working the
sick kidneyfi, lienee the congestion of
the blood causes headache in the same
manner as a similar congestion in the
head causes headache. Y'ou become
nervous, respondent, sick, feverish
irritable, liave spots appearing before
the eyes, hags under the lids, und lack
of ambition to do things.
The latest and most effective means
of overcoming this trouble, is to cat
sparingly of meat, drink plenty of
water between meals und take a single
Anuric tablet before each meal for n
while.
Simply ask your favorite druggist
for Anuric (double strength) if yon
aren’t feeling up to the standard. If
you have lumbago, rheumatism, drop-
sy, begin immediately this treatment
with Anuric. Most scientists and
medical men believe that because of
over-abundance of uric acid in the
system, uratic snlts are deposited in
the tissues and cause rheumatism anil
gout.
The physicians and specialists at
Dr. Pierce’s Institution in Buffalo,
N. have thoroughly, tested Amirit
and have been with one accord sue-
eessful In eradicating and throwing
off from the system the uric acid
which accumulates and poisons. Pa-
tients having once used Anuric at this
institution have repeatedly sent back
for more. 7
Such a demand has been created
that Dr. Pierce decided to put Anuric
in the drug stores of this country, in
a ready-to-use form. It will be their
own fault if those suffering from uric
acid troubles do not take advantage of
this wonderful remedy.—Advertlse-

Paris, June 21.—The American
irmy and navy Young Men's Chris-
tian Association is milking extensive
.ireparatlons to look after the large
force* of American soldiers and sall-
irs as they arrive in Franco.
A meeting wgs held at (he Ameri-
can embassy yesterday at which the
proposals were outlined. William
Graves Sharp, American ambassador,
was numed it.* honorary president of
he association and James Barbour
ictive president. Darius N. Davis,
foreign secretary of the International
r. M. C. ,A., and E. C. Carter, repre-
sentative of the Ameiean Y. M. C. A.,
it the British front are in charge of
•lie plans. President Wilson end Sec-
•etary of War Baker have written let-
ers In favor of the movement and
Vnibassmlor Sharp is giving it all of-
ficial encouragement possible.
Already large forces are at work at
he front amoug the soldiers. Ten
argo buildings have been ordered at a
■ost of <10,000 fyancs. Pending the
•oropletkm of the building, tents have
»cen temporarily, erected and local
milding* rented. Gift large saloon
das been bought,,out and transformed
into flourishing ,y. M. ,C. A. quarters.
It was ready when .the first American
•ailors landed and they were greet«*d
,vith the Stars and Strijies and a
arge sign readiog‘‘Amer!can Y. M. C.
A., Come in.” ■
Here the men wrote letters, had
their money changed and read Ameri-
•an newspapers. and magazines.
The idans for the large buildings
ire based upon.Air Carter's exper:
letices at the lfrjtjah front. (
With regard to the work, Mr. Carter
said:
■The British have a thousand Y”.

to lie called recreation houses and
will closely follow those of the Brit-
ish., They will accommodate 2,000
persons, the main hail seating 1,000
for theatricals, concerts, lectures and
moving picture shows.
"We expect to bring some of the
best stock companies and musical
talent from the Unjited States and
establish! a Y. M. C. A. theatrical cir-
cuit between the American bases.
The BrUsh have university extension
lectures with the British professors
from Oxford and Cambridge and we
will establish a similar university
system with the professors from Har-
vard, Yule. Princeton and other uni-
versities.
"In the buildings wd will provide
billiard, writing anil refreshment
rooms and the men may obtain tobacco
and other things at -cost.”
The American soldiers and sailors
sre showing the greatest interest in
the. distinctively American features of
the Y. M. 0. A. centers such as soda
water fountains, shoe shining parlors,
chewing gum and peanut*. The or-
ganizers by Americanizing the cen-
ters are securing substantial results in
keeping the soldiers from the streets
and cafes. 5
Senators Henry F. Ashurst, of Ari-
zona and William F. Kenyon of Iowa
have announced their intention of re
signing their seats to enlist as sea
men in (lie naval reserve. Both have
passed the necessary physical exam-
inations. When congress reconvenes
they would be obliged to resign their
eats, for under present laws it is un-
constitutional for senators to enlist
as privates in any branch of the mil-
itary service. Mr. Kenyon according-
ly asked that an amendment iic
made to suspend the existing regn'a
tton.
TO PREVENT SELF-POISONING.
USING A MEDICINE DROPPER.
Th* Mor* Slanting It i* H*ld th* Big-
gar the Drop* Will B*.
When using a medicine dropper it is
important to use it correctly, especial-
ly if measuring out drops of some
powerful medicine like strychnine,
morphine or arsenic, for drops vary
widely in their Size.
Dr. R. P. Garrow of London recently
reported to the Lancet the results of
some experiments he had made with
a, medicine dropper and a simple solu-
tion. ne measured the solution very
carefully and then took It all up into a
medicine dropper, from whlclGhe turn-
ed It, drop by drop, holding tne drop-
per at different angles and counting
the drops as they fell.
With the dropper held vertically (at
an angle of 00 degrees with the hori-
zontal) its contents made 100 drops.
Held at. an angle of 50 degrees its con-
tents made eighty-two drops; at 20 de-
grees they made sixty-eight drops, at
10 degrees they made sixty drops, and
buhl horizontal they made only forty-
eight drops.
In other words, the drops become
progressively larger as the dropper is
moved from the vertical position. A
drop from a dropper held at an angle
of 50 degrees is one-quarter larger than
normal; thus, if the nurse has to give
sixteen drops and holds the dropper
slanting she is really giving twenty.
And the more slanting the dropper the
bigger the drops.

SELF CONTROL.
L*arn to control thy temper.
Let this truth be present to the*
in th* *xcit*mont of anger—that
to be moved by pat»ion ia not
manly, but that mMdneaa and
gentleness, as. they' are mor*
agreeable to human nature, so
also are they more manly, for,
in the same degree in which a
man’s mind is nearer to free-
dom from all passion, in th*
same degree also is it nearer to
strength.—Marcus Antoninus.
