ithmetic is vulgar, reading and spelling are
of small consequence, and general facts of
history and geography are too easily acquired
to satisfy the high cravings of enlightened
school authorities who take pride in their
work. So drawing and music and German
have been crowded into the common schools,
and the high schools have reveled in the
higher mathematics. botany, biology, astron-
omy, literature. physics, Latin and Greek,
with here and there dash of French. The
whole system OF public school education in
the cities to-day eliminates in the high
school, and all the studies in the common
schools are arranged with the high school
in view. 1t is an established fact that not
two per cent of the pupils who enter the
primary classes ever reach the high school
at all, and yet the course of education Is
arranged as if all were 10 go through that in
stitution.
The time has come when halt mast be
called In this wild career of folly and ex-
travagance. 0vertaxed communities are
awakening to the fact that our education
does not educate. We are squandering our
money and receiving no adequate return for
it. This modern system of giving our chill.
dren a slight smattering of many things, and
teaching them nothing thoroughly, is bad
for double reason. 1t does not permit the
average child to make the best use of the
limited time allowed him in the schools of
theory before entering the great school
of practice-the woodland is very expen-

ATranoutINe-yous system

Can never be posse by those whose diges
tive and assimilative organs are in state OF
chronic disorder. Weak stomachs make weak
nerves. To restore vigOr and quietude TO the
latter, the first must be invigorated and regu-
lated. The ordinary sedatives may tranquil
ize the nerves for a while, but they can never,
like HOStetter's Stomach Bitters, remove the
causes of nervous debility. That superb in
vigorant and corrective of disordered condi-
tions of the alimentary organs has also the
effect of imparting tone to the nerves. The
delicate tissues of which they are constituted,
when weakened in consequence of impover-
iShment of the blood, resulting from imperfect
digestion and assimilation, draw strength
from the fund of vitality developed in the sys-
tenn by the Bitters which imparts the required
impetus to the nutritive functions of the stom
ach, enriches the circulation and gives tone

The Demand Comes from the People.


At last there seems TO be general recog-
milton. even in congress. of the propriety of
a thorough and final investigation of the
confessed frauds perpetrated in the electoral
count in Florida The demand therefore
comes from the people, and it is but too
evident that the politicians in congress
who know so much about what was going
on in those DAYS would rather let the
dead past bury its dead. lest they should
be found perforce among the mourners.
1t can not too be clearly understood
the present movement for investigation is
separate and distinct from that having in
view the overthrow of the present admins
tration by some visionary judicial process.
The first looks only to eliciting the truth
without regard of the effect upon this or that
party, and originates with the people, the
other is the offspring of a union of the
Bourbon democrats and implacable republi-
cans. and is essentially malicious and
revolutionary in its purpose. What is
wanted is an Investigation that will put the
true history of the Florida frauds on record,
and the Louisiana and Oregon frauds too, If
you please and the issue may be left to take
care of itself. We should like to see il
fathered by some such man as Clarkson
Potter, and really fair committee appoint
ed, il the material can be found in the house;
and we think that it can if Speaker Randall
will put on his spectacles and scan the roll
very closely.

During the past fifteen years the tendency
in all the large cities Of hiscountry has been
toward steady enlargement of the educa-

reached so great an extent that the curri-
culum of the city schools is now as great as
that of colleges and universities. Grave,
elderly PEOPLE who have children to educate,
are astoIInded at the number and variety of
text books they must purchase, and not a
few of them are sadly puzzled at the very
names Of many branches taught. As the
craze for ''oIogiesp has grown the common
studies which were regarded as sufficient for
the fathers and mothers Of this generation
have been showed INTO the back ground, Ar.
