WHAT MAKES AN EDUCATED MAN?

We want to think and to feel as the best Greeks felt. Yes. But also with all the myriads of facts and experience gathered since the time of ancient Greece. The classics give broad, attractive, subtle generalisations about life. Well there are many modern classics, some to be found in .English some perhaps, in other languages. It is not necessary that a person should know more than one language, his own, to be educated. You may have a person wlio speaks half a dozen languages, but he is not necessarily educated. What makes an educated man is knowing his own language well so that he knows, as Buskin put it,' the aristocracy of words lie uses their genealogy, and thus is able to move as it were amongst the ranks of courtiers. So it is in a country like India. ' There are thousands of pandits ’ through learned in only one language, the Sanskrit, are nevertheless extremely well educated; though they have hardly travelled out of one part of India yet with them may be discussed almost any problem, just because' they know their own" language thoroughly we ll.—Otago Reading Circle.

DOAN’S REPORTS INVESTIGATEDNo return of illness for three years. We are answering a very important question to-day, viz., “Do the people who say they have been cured by Doan’s'Backache Kidney Pills stay cured?” A mediciue which cures merely fo r a day or a week, is worthless; it is only a tonic or a purgative. But a medicine which drives the illness away so that it stays away, that medicine does all medicine can do. We have been verifying our earlier published cases and we are pleased to say that the result of our investigations has been most gratifying. The cures by Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills arc. permanent cures. Here’s proof of this statement: — Mr W. Pascoe, Revell Street, Hokitika, says i—“ For a good while I suffeied terribly with backache and rheumatic pains and at times could haidly move without enduring positive torture. I was also troubled with dizzy turns and felt tired and languid, having no energy for anything. The constant backache, apart from being very trying, handicapped me a lot at my work, as I could not stoop without increase suffering. Seeing an advertisement for Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills the thought occurred to me to try them, so I got a bottle a once and I am delight-

ed to tell you they gave me relief very quickly and gradually made a complete cure. Twelve months have elapsed since then, and I am still well, so feel safe in saying my cure is a permanent one. Kidney'sufferers cannot de better than take Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills, they are the most reliable remedy known.” Two years later Mr Pascoe says:—“l have had no return of my old complaint since Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills cured me over three yoais ago. Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills are sold by all chemists and storekeepers at 3s per bottle, or will be posted on receipt of price by Foster-McClellan Co., 15 Hamilton Street, Sydney. But, be sure you get DOAN’S.
