Common senso would nuggest that If ono
wishes to become Meshy nnd plump it can
only result trum the food wo eat and digest
and that lond should be albuminous or tlctdi
forming food, llko eggs, beefsteak and cer
eals; In other words the kinds of food that
make llesh are the foods which form tlto
greater part of our dally bills of fare.
Hut the trouble Is that while we eat
enough and generally too much, the stom
ach, from nbuse and overwork, does not
properly dlgrnt and nslmllate It, which Is
the reason so many people remain thin and
under weight: tho digestive organs do not
completely digest the llesh forming beef
steak and eggs and similar wholesome food.
There are thousands of such who are
really confirmed dyspeptics, although they
may have no particular pain or incon
fulence from their stomnchs.
If such persons would lay their prejudices
aside and make a regular practice of taking
after each meal one or two of Stuart'n Dys
pepsia Tablets the food would be quickly
and thoruujhly digested, because these tab
lets contain the natural peptones and dia
stase which every weak stomach lacks, nnd
by supplying this want tho stomach Is en
abled to regain Its natural tone and vigor.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets digest overy
form of llesh-forralns food. meat, eggs,
bread nnd potatoes, and this ii tho rcawon
they so quickly build up. strengthen and In
vigorate tblu, dyspeptic men, women and
children.
Invalids and children, even the most deli
cate, use them with marked benefit as they
contain no strong. Irritating drugs, no ca
thartic or any harmful ingredient.
Stuart's I)spepsla Tablets Is tho most
succcsiful mid moat widely known of any
remedy for stomach troubles because it Is
the most reasonable and iu I untitle of modern
medicines.
Stuart's. Dyspepsia Tablets are slid by
every druggist In the United tftntcs and Can
niU as well as in Orcat llrltaln. at SO rents
for complete treatment
Nothing further Is required to cure any
stomach trouble or to make thin, nervous,
dyspeptic pec pie strong, plump and well.

LINCOLN. March '3 (Special.) Superin
tendent Oordon of the Lincoln public s.-honls
tonight gavo out the following Interview
touching upon tho charges that have been
made against his administration during the
Inst few days-
"Slnco 1 have been superintendent rf the
Lincoln schools we have employed Just thirty
new teachers. Of this number six. Including
the supervisor of music, have been selected
from outside. No outside teacher was se
lected until a careful canvass had been made
of available hciic material for the posi
tions to bo Illicit In several easei iuuie
teachers were asked to take these places,
but declined, as they were not able lo se
cure their rrlear.0 from their prevent em
ployers. It Is, and always has been, my
pollf.v to give preference to homo teachers
whenever possible. Four of the outside
teachers elected this year were elected be
cause of tho strong endorsements received
an to their special ability In 'primary wcrk.
One of them was recommended by a mem
ber of the board, Mr. Luddcn, who was per
sonally acquainted with her and her work
"That naturally suggests our position with
refcrenco to tho training school. My object
In proposing the training school wns two
fold. First To make It possible for the
graduates of our High school who are look
ing forwnrd to teaching to secure the train
lnK anl experience ncrresary to election In
otir elty schools without going elsewhere for
their preparation. The rule which has been
In voguo hero for several years and Is
likewise prevalent throughout the country
recmlres two cars' experience for election
to a regular position. Oraduatlon from high
school or college Is not sufficient prepara
tion for actual work of teaching. Some of
the most pronounced failures In school work
have been madn by college graduates. This
Is so clearly recognized generally that In
cities having n population of over 5,000 It Is
utmost Invariably the custan to require nt
least two years" experlmce. My principal
object therefore In proposing the training
school was to give our own people the op
portunity to acquire this experience and
training. Ileforo deciding upon the nintter I
secured information from various places with
refcrenco to the question of expense. In
nearly all Instance! superintendents reported
to me that their training school was not a
burden of expense. In fotnc cases It was
nlllrmod that It even cost less than an ordi
nary school, hut In general the verdict was
that tho expense was about the same and In
a few Instances a little more.
"My kci'OikI purpose wns to make It nn In
spiration and help for all the schools, which
would bo brought about by a special move
merit In tho direction of advanced methods,
My InqnirlOH rn this point sent oil to other
cities eleclled responses from fifteen cities
lmvlng training schools. In reply to
tho question, 'Is your training school bene-
Iklal to tho rest of your schools?' the an
swer In every instance was In the nlllrmn
tlvc. I received a letter from Prof. Luckey
of tho university strongly endorsing the
project, lie says: 'For several years I have
felt tho necessity of such a school In supple
menting nnd perfecting the training of the
university. Tho two should be able to sup
plement each other to the great advantage
of the teachers and schools of Lincoln nnd
vicinity. A properly conducted '.nojel school
will not only prove of great hcnolU to the
city, but will bo of especial .benefit to tho
children that eomo under Its Immediate In
fluence. I should bo glad to have my own
children In such a school. Human nature Is
such that I hellove we arc all stimulated to
do our best work when under tho critical
observation of others. Children often suffer
from tho mechanical nnd monotonous routine
Into which much of the teaching degenerates.
The stimulus thcreforo of a good model
Bchrol will give new life to all the schools
of tho city.' This and other considerations
led mo to propose the training school. I
hao no special interest In It other than
that I believe It will bo for the good of our
schools and an aid to tho young women of
Lincoln In picparlng for tho work of tcach-

Hfhool. Tho eighth grade Is already largely
located In tin Central building. I have not
recommended bringing tho seventh grade to
the Central building, nor do I think It ad
visable. 1 think the misapprehension on
this point comes from a dlscitsjlon submitted
u the Hoard of Education at Its meeting
February 0. ln which I called attention to n
report that came, to mo of the committee on
college cntraiKo requirements of tun ,a
tional Educational association, suggesting an
extension of tho High school lo Include the
seventh and eighth grades. Commenting on
thU I tald 1 am not disposed to think,
however, that under our present arrange
ment of schools It would be feasible or de
sirable to bring both the soventh and eighth
grades to the Central building."

up to dale of $1,199.87.

HERLIN, March 3. (New York World
Cablegram Special Telegram ) The revival
of the dueling spirit In (lermany within
the last few weeks has resulted In a new.
powerful opposing agitation. The center, or
Catholic, party In the Relchstng Is deter
mined to root out the nuisance, despite tho
fact that dueling timid supporters ln high
places.
In 1SH6 the Catholic party asked the chan
cellor what steps he proposed to take to
diminish the evil arising from the growth
of dueling in the army. Prince Ilohenlohe
replied that ho was berlously considering
the matter, but thought that the existing
laws wcto sufficient. Nothing has slnco
been done.
Dueling Is almost confined to officers ln
tho armv nnd to government nlllelals. a clnsa
of society which Inherited that old tradition
of honor, nnd who maintain that an Insult
can only be wiped out with blood.
The supporters of dueling nrgue that
honor Is dearer than life nnd that there Is
no way open to a mar to vindicate his
honor except by jeopardizing his life. Re
sides tho maintenance of the' old code of
honor, dueling Is held to be a flnu lesson
In chivalry for the young who are exposed
to so many temptntlons to take sordid
views of things. A third argument In Its
favor, and especially nmongthe students,
U that It nourishes a spirit of physical fear
lessness. Against dueling the center party argues
that It Is a most unjust method of settling
a dispute, for, all things being equal, tho
challenger la Just ns often killed as the
challenged; tho man In the wrong as often
CFcapca as the man In tho right. It Is de
clared to bo barbarous, for. In nine eases
cut of ten, the duels are fought over an
occurrence which Is trivial ln Itself nnd
could easily bo settled by a decision of tho
court or the arbitration of friends. It set
tles nothing: tho Injury remains an Injury
even after the exchnngc of bullets.
In mnny enscs dueling Is a cowardly
procedure, for tho challenged Is nlways
placed nt n disadvantage. Even nn oppo
nent of (fueling, the fnUe code of honor
leaves him no nlternntlvc than acceptance.
Finally, dueling striked ngnlnst civilized
law nnd order. It takes the law Into Its
own hands. Thofe who are ngltatlng against
dueling point to England nnd America, the
two 'countries where the highest notions of
honor prevail nnd where dueling Is ridi
culed. It Is also held to bo nn offense
against religion.
Dueling would ccoso In Oermany, too, If
the knlser said tho word. Anything he has
hitherto said has been half-hearted nnd the
army has never taken It seriously, t'ntll
he sets ills faco against It ns Hint, dueling
will continue nnd the ridiculous courts of
honor connected with every regiment will
nourish.

HI'RLLN. March 3. (New York World
Cablegram Special Telegram.) Kalsfr Wil
liam's new play, "tier Klsenznhn." produced
this week at the Hoyal theater before the
CI,ons "le " 1'"'"trlcn , D"rs""
master, with which he had sworn allegiance
to Frederlch.
ln the fourth act the elector returns and
threatens to punish the Brandenburg towns,
but the delegates succeed in turning him
from his plan of vengeance. He then
marches to Hcrlln and meets Ityke, who, at
the Instant he hears of the elector, Is killed
by the fall of a colossal Image.
Rathnnw, tho loyal mayor, says: "We did
nothing."
Elsenzahn, glowering nt Ityke: "Yet this
man did It. Thou hast darel. Thou look at
me In tho face. Thou hast dared to raise an
Insolent hand against consecrated power,"
llykc: "Yes. 1 shall dare until my heart
ceases heating. When that happens another
will dare, nnd dare until he falls."
Elsenzahn. majestically: "Rykc, on thy
knees."
Ityke: "Hcfnre I bow to thee voluntarily
the tower nt St. Nicholas will bend to the
earth."
'Elsenzahn: "Thou wiliest not?"
Ityke: "No."
Elsenzahn: "For the Inst time!"
Ryke: "No!"
Elsenzahn (to the crowd): "Hands on this
lellow."
Ryke Is borne to his knees.
Elsenzahn: "Thou kncclest boforo tho
law, not before me. He thou proscribed,
thou wolf's head.
Ryke (shrinking): "A victim of might, a
victim of tyranny."
Elsenzahn: "No, a deed with the smoke
nf the sacrifice of true freedom; a deed done
for tho glery of the mark of Hrandcnburg.'
There Is an underplot of love, but It
has nothing to do with the main story.
Ryke's daughter loves the son of the mil-
Minted burgomaster of Hrrlln
The piece was magnificently mounted nnd
nt tho close the kaiser gave mounted pins
and brooches to the prlnclp.il artists. De
spite the unflattering reception ho seemed
Immensely delighted with hlmselr.
Tht language of the play Is absurdly In
Hated, almost defying literal tran3latlon,
but some typical extras follow:
Sceno: Crowd of loyalists In Hcrlln cheer
ing the elector. Ryke exclaims: "Down
with him, to the dust!" Then a mailed
figure, with visor down, enters the crowd
suddenly. Thero is drrp silence. The
figure lifts Its visor. Everyono quakes and
uncovers except Rykc. Elsenzahn speaks.
"The elector lives. A pilot In a storm, here
stand I, hedged In with right given me by
Rod, and by mine office. And yet I might
weep tears red as blood to see Hcrlln so
fallon. which once to tno vowed truth nnd
fealty."
Elsenzahn takes every opportunity In the
action of tho play to bring In his mailed
fist, cither by rcferenco to It or by making
his armored breast ring with Its blows.
In the next act the business deals with
Ryko's home. Ryke's mother and daughter
aro heartbroken at his disloyalty, the ob
ject being to portray the terrible effects
of disloyalty on the home3 of the people.
Susnnne: "Oh, If thou wouldst only make
peace with thy Cod nnd with him whom
Ood has set over us."
Ryke: "Pence with him! Susanne, hear
thy mother! Tear from thy hetirt the image,
of him who sltteth on tho red horse, who
takcth away peace from the world, who 's
from hell! Hiar thy mother!"
There Is not a striking passage or sit
uation In tho play. All Is turgid, hackneyed
and Inactive.
