Spontaneous Combustion.

From experiments lately tried by one OF
our most skiliul chemists, the fact seems
will established that certain articles, such
as old wearing apparel, welidried wood,
etc, are capable Of generating sufficient
heat TO induce combustion without the
application OF fire piece of old cotton

chest with old papers aud rags, he found,
after eight days, 50 shriveled up that the

oil h'd been applied, were wrapped up
with two or three matches and placed in
tin box, which was hung IN q lott exposed
To the rays OF an afternoon sun during very
hot weather. After three or iOar days Of
this test the box in which the rags han been
dcposi ed was found to contain only some
well blaekened cutters In short, the var.

Humanity and Public School Children.

Humanity and Public School Children.
In the weekly report of the Illinois HUI
name Society, the President, Edwin Lee
Brown, says;
Our attention has been called, during
the past few days to cases of cruelty to
children in our public schools, which we
propose to remedy, if possible, and we
think that the great majority of parents in
this city will gladly assist us in our en-
beavers to do so. Last week we reported
on the cruelty of keeping the children out
OF doors in cold weather waiting for the
opening. We have now to report mode
OF punishment or training in vogue which
seems to us cruel in the extreme. In one
school, some of the children, in marching
down stairs at the close of the day, did not
keep step tprobably the poor little things
were so glad to get out that they, childlike.
forgot what they were doing, when the
whole number were compelled to march
up one flight of stairs and down another
as we are informed, thirty-two times on
one occasion and nineteen times on an
other. Among these children was a lame
boy. To quote the quaint language of
letter have received from one of the suf
ferers, handed to me by his father: IF YOU
had asked any of the boys the next day
how they felt they would have told Won
that they did not care abont marching up
and down stairs tonight There are
other abuses in our schools, such as keep
ing the children over hours, making them
study home Of nights, and the ike, which
will receive our consideration in due time.
