State Agricultural college at Brookings to succeed John W. Heston. ' *was also Tor two years- fellow ot the tmlveraijy of St Andrews. Scotland, an honor never before conferred on an American by any British univer sity. His record for scholarship at the Univer sity ot St, Andrews has been equaled but twice in the history ot &at venerable institution, now about 500- years old. Dr. Chalmers has been-fonr times abroad for study and his wife also was educated in tbe^ best universities of this country and Europe. Tt is said thtf doctor is fond of golf, a circumstaner easily traceable to his Scotch-Irish parentage. He is rated as a man of exceptionally good exec utive ability, haying the happy faculty and good sense of accomplishing a great deal without any blowing of trumpets.

Dr. Chalmers has attained to eminence both in this country and in Europe, as an educator and as a clejgynutn. He is of Scotch descent, and was botn In Cnnadi in 1859, being a relative^ of the great Dr. Thomas Chalmers, who left an impress upon Edinburgh greater than that of any other man except John Knox. JTho of Canadian birth, his early life was largely passed in Michigan, where Ite took an" active part in educational work He is an author and editor of numerous standard works In literature and education, among which aje editions of the En glish classiLS. He took tJe- degrees, of A. B, and Ph. D., ?t Euieka tollege, Illinois, passed to the degiee pf M* A. with honors at St. An -drews university, Scotlandthe Oxford of that countryand receded the honorary degree of LL.t from. Western Michigan college. Wheat on college of HHnojs lias sluce conferred upon bltu- the degree of D, P. Slrice receiving his doctor's degrea in 1889, Dr. Chalmers has for the most part been en gaged in educational work, tho at present he is pastor of the FlrsT: Congregational church of Elgin, Ilk, wbieh enjoys "the distinction of leln the largest Congiegational church in point *t membership In the United States outside of,- Brooklyn. Hj Record at St. Andrews. For five years Dr. Chalmers Was at the head of the department of English literature at the Ohifr state university at Columbus^ While at this ipstitutipn he became personally acquainted with President McKinley, with whom he- established^ ctobe relations of mutual friendship and esteem. For- three years- Jie -,was pieaident of the Wis family In the spring of 1897 he left an education al position paying 8,W a year, and on return ing tw o years later, no educational field present ing itself, he accepted the pastorate of a little church 1n Toledo* Ohio, at a salary of $800. From small beginning? this church under his charge grew to be th largest in that city. The same phenomenal success has followed him in his work at Elgin, wheie the membership has more than doubled since he assumed charge, now numbering upwards of 1,500 members Teaching His Choice. Tho eminently successful as a minister. Dr. Chalmers has not been a preacher fiora choice, his ambition rathei leading him into education al woik Even in the pulpit he is a teacher rather thnn a preached, and to his natural tact in keeping all of his subordinates working to together harmoniously bis success both as a rather than a preacher is largely due. His snlsrv at Elgin is $5 000 a year, and it may be thought singular that he would give up such a plate for a position at the head of pn education al institution paying only $3,000 a year. True, It will be a sacrifice financially, but Dr Chalm ers is a man who does not estimate life and its work wholly by the dollor-and-cent standard, be sides, a college or university presidency has been the ambition of his life aud therefore he does not feel that he is making a sacrifice in this in- As Indicating somewhat of the estimation held for Dr Chalmers by the Edinburgh institution The Journal publishes the following Ter - batim-copy of tho communication notifying him of dionois conferred: "University of St. Andrews, March 24, 1898, Desr Sir. I beg to inform you that the senatus academicus of this university has unanimously t esblved to confer on yon the post-'und title of lesearch feltpw in English literature and phi losophy.

I beg to congratulate you on being the first Ameri can to frewefve this hohor from tfce most an cient university in Scotland. And I have the honor to be, dear sir, your most faithful ser vant/ I. M. D. Meiklejohn." ' 'iffafr regents of education believe that in secur ing the services of Pr. Chalmers tbey have been peenllarlj fortunate. He is a broad-mlpded,, highly cultured gentleman and his excellent tact in meeting men will enable him to treat the specialists along the several scientific lines at that institution with that respect and cour tesy essential to the best results at the college. Dr? OhalmerB did not seek the place, but was sought by the regents, and was elected by unanimous vote of the full board. **- sands from all directions, their lunch baskets well ^lleQ With good things for the great picnic.

She was closely followed by a brigade of boys with milk palls op their arms. Then followed little wagons drawn by burros and Shet land ponjes, with creamery delegations' wagons drawn by six and-four-horse teams. A carriage richly decorated in gold bunting carried Gov ernor S. R Van Sant, Mayor J. Stearns and other speakers of th day. The rear of the pro cession was brought up by a long line of farm ers ditving fine horses and carriages, all dec orated in gala attire. Proceeding to North park, the picnic grounds, nn address of welcome was delivered by Mayor Stearns and responded tp by Governor Van Sant The company then repaired to their baskets and a sumptuous dinner was spread upon the green grass.

Bead what one of the GREATEST NEWSPAPERS IN AMERICA has to eay on this subject: ,**The manufacturer^ of Oastoria have been compelled to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to familiarize the public with the signature of Ohas. H. Retoher,, This has been necessitated by reason of pirates counterfeiting the Oastoria trade- mark. This counterfeiting is a crime not only against the proprietors of Oastoria, but against the growing generation. All persons should be careful to see that Oastoria bears the signature of Chas. H. Fletchar, if they would guard the health of their children. Parents, and mothers in particular, ought to carefully examine the Oastoria advertisements which have been appearing in this paper, and to re- member that the wrapper of every bottle of genuine Oastoria bears the fiws-sfanfle signature of Ohas.
