The Colorado Chautauqua is an insti tution whose name has become known in every part of the South and West. Its grounds are located on the Colorado & Southern Ry. at the edge of Boulder. The Chautauqua opens July 4th, each year, and continues for live weeks. The greatest lecturers, educators, entertain ers and musicians of America appear upon the platform. The location of the Chautauqua is un surpassed for beauty and healthfulness. Imagine n table laud covering 300 acres on the eastern side of a vast mountain chain, whose summits are tipped with everlasting snow. On the right nature has formed a mighty chasm, whose re cesses are lost in the dome of the conti nent. On the left, a’ mile and a half away and 500 feet below, nestles the lov liest little city of America. In front is spread out a mighty plain extending away toward the boundless prairies. At the foot of the level mesa on which the surprised and delighted beholder stands, is an enchanting valley, whose carpet of emerald extends as far as the eye can reach to the north, nnd from which arises the sounds of the farm, the gentle lowing of the eattle, the faint barking of the dog or the distant rumble of a train of cars, slowly threading its wuy toward the limitless horizon. The scene is one | of entrancing beauty. It lulls to restful meditation, and as the eye drinks in the 1 infinite softness of mountain and plain,; and the physical senses absorb the bal my sweetness of the atmosphere, the 1 spirit is involuntarily lifed in adoration of the Mighty Power which created the surprising vision. Most Chautauquans are students, ; hence the Chautauqua Summer School. An effort is made to meet as nearly as possible all the demands of those in at tendance. The institution is of a pop- ' ular character, interesting and practical, i thorough and progressive. The instruc- I tors are all men and women of recog nized standing, who lond inspiration to those who attend their classes. The work should appeal very strongly to teachers who are anxious to have an outing and at the same time feel they must pursue a definite line of study to better fit them for their next year's work. To them are offered opportuni ties for review of the common branches, for work in Psvcnology and Pedagogy, in Primary methods, in literature, and many other branches of study. Others will find real delight and relaxation in tht# Woman’s Council, the Literary and Art Lectures and other classes told of in this announcement. A copy of the general announcement containing all the details of this season's session will be forwarded on request by T. E. Fisher, General Passenger Agent, Colorado & Southern Ry., Denver, Colo. Modest Claims Often Carry the Most Conviction. When Maxim, the famous gun inven tor. placed his gun before a committee of judges, he stated its carrying power to be much below what he felt sure the gun would accomplish. The result of the trial was therefore a great surprise, instead of a disappointment. It is the same with the manufacturers of Cham berlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. They do not publicly boast of all this remedy will accomplish, but pre fer to let the users make the statements. What they do claim, is that it will pos itively cure diarrhoea, pains in the stom ach and bowels, and has never been known to fail. For sale by Fred Long.
