J. Lundy, of Detroit, in a paper read before a sanitary convention, held at Ann Arbor, will probably result in benefit to many a one who otherwise may be compelled to cut short his college course. Dr. Lundy says: 1. Avoid reading or studying by poor light.

2. Light should come from the side, ami not from the back or from the front. 3. Do not read or study while suffering great bodily fatigue or during recovery from illness. 4.

Do not read while lying down. 5. Do not use tho eyes too long at a time for near work, but give them occasional periods of rest. 6. Reading and study should be done systematically.

7. During study avoid the stooping position, or whatever tends to produce congestion of the head and face. 8. Select well printed books. 9.

Correct errors of refraction with proper glasses. 10. Avoid bad hygienic conditions and the use of alcohol aud tobacco. 11. Let the physical keep pace with the mental culture, for asthenopia i3 most usually observed in those who are lacking in physical development.

Last Friday evening the young ladies of the Kappa Alpha Theta fraternity entertained a number of their friends with a tea at the home of Miss May Walker on South Tennessee Street. At half past seven the tea was served in the pleasant manner so characteristic of the Thetas. The Mandolin Club dispersed sweet and inviting music, and the latter part of the evening was directed to dancing, conversation, and cards.

At a late hour the guests departed, each one declaring that the Thetas had added another to their list of successful parties. Those present were Misses Walker, Mamie and Helen Simpson, Benedict, Chapman, Wagstaff, Bartell, Merrill, Webster, Daily and McMillan. Messrs.

The time is rapidly approaching when another Kansas Legislature will meet. cussed the late Fishery treaty and the President's position and relations with The State University must go before this egislature.as it has before the past legis-atures, and ask for its appropriations. There will be the man of "economy" in the coming legislature, as there has been past Legislatures.

By a recent exchange we notice that the State Agricultural College, at Manhattan, becomes by a recent act of Congress, the recipient of 7,083 acres of land to be selected from the public lands within the State, While we, at K. S. much to our sorrow, have nothing to expect from the above quarter, yet as we see favors continually heaped upon our less deserving contemporaries, we again feel like raising our feeble voice in our behalf. In the first place is the State of Kansas able to support and upbuild an institution such as ours? Most assuredly.

Secondly, bow can ample appropriation for that purpose be secured? Through our State Legislators, our Representatives and Senators. Very well. Now let us consider the means we have to work with, viz: Besides a large and influential corps of instructors, we have 500 students representing almost every county and city in the State. When we consider that the reluctance with which our legislators make appropriations for our benefit is largely due to their incomplete knowledge of our institution and its requirements, wo cannot help but hit immediately upon a plan for success. It is this: Let each and every individual studeut, while at home, make the acquaintance of the Representative and Senator from his county or district and use his influence, whether great or small, in favor of measures presented by our Board of Regents and Faculty to the Legislature.

Yes, and we can do still more by occasionally sending an article to our home papers which will remind the people of this commonwealth that they hayo a State University which bids fair to equal, if not surpass, Harvard, Yale or Ann Arbor, if they will but lend it the necessary assistance. the Canadian government.

Copper, the representatives of the Tariff Reform club, and if possible, convince them of their error. his constituents about his "record for economy." But the man of false notions about economy in matters of education is not the most dangerous person to the Univetsity. The man of whom we have most to fear, is the trader, the man, who having no sense of honor himself, looks for none in others, and therefore boldly approaches tho friends of the University and tells them that he will support any appropriation for theUniversity, provided these same friends of the University will support some pet bill of his.
