(The Neuraskan editor adviseth his young friends.)
V. V. II. No, there is no use in voting for Jefferson
any longer. He will never be elected again. 1 Ie died
in 1S26.
Trouiii.ed One. It is hard to describe the Chro
matic scale. The best way for you to do, is to visit
the Armory at 5 p.m. and hear Bentley call " atten-t-i-o-n."
P. M. Lee. Your question has troubled us consider
ably, but you arc undoubtedly the champion, as We
could find the record of no one who had eaten as much
as eighteen eggs and survived.
Q. T. --On the authority of U.K. Wheeler, we are
able to state that the first Saturday in the month is the
rcgulay day for sweeping out the Co-op. This import
ant day will fall the Saturday before the Christmas
Holidays end.
H. L. K. Pratt's Hair Restorer (50 cents a pint) is
the best that we know of. Some like Avers' I lair
Vigor better, but we don't think it so good. Of course
you must keep the lip well saturated in case you use
cither. No, we cannot recommend a good dye.
First Prep. Yes, you may call those iron revolving
hemispheres on Nebraska Hall a little wind mill if you
like, -but they do not turn machinery for Professor
Allen. They keep the wind down to a moderate rate
of speed. Culver regulates the weather in general.
A. J. W. No, Arthur, we cannot get you a pass to
go to Kansas. This editorial office has been afflicted
sorely enough with that sort of thing. Besides, if
these hard times continue we'll need all of our passes
to get back to our wife's folks. Strike the Hesperian.
Anxious Mother. No, my dear lady, foot balls are
in no way related to corns or carbuncles. They are
not protuberances on the feet at all. Foot ball is a
popular college game that is rapidly taking the place
of prize fighting and is used for the settlement of
feuds.
Enquirer You have been misinformed. Harvard
and Yale are both older and larger than Doanc, al
though they can scarcely be called so progressive.
Doane is expected soon to cvolutc into a good high
school. We rejoice at such steps of progress in the
educational world.
L. C. O. Most certainly not; no one would consider
the step-ladder allowed for an instant in cavalry
mounts. Your plan of driving stakes here and there
over the practice field in order to enable you to mount
with more facility is hardly practical. 2. No, always
mount from the left side of the horse.
II. E. N. (1) You should know, my dear Junior,
that spectacles and a tanned leather moustache arc
strictly Senior prerogatives. (2) No, better not take
the solid girl to chapel. It is sufficient to meet her at
the library door and take her to Polycon lecture. You
arc young, Harvey, but you will learn.
O. W. (captain) We are sorry to disappoint you,
but we believe there will be no Indian outbreak or civil
war in America for years. No, we do not know of any
uiuuuicr war in progress on me eartii at present than
the Jap-Chinese fight. We know of no editor who can
furnish you transportation to Pckin
witn tne oattauon.
Better remain
