earnestly in the good work. We have
no fears for the high if this work Of
regeneration shall be honest and thor
ough.
Of course q good, substantial edu-
cation cannot be obtained in these
primary and rural schools, unless they
are thoroughly organized and wisely
managed. They cannot be thoroughly
organized without legislative action,
and this legislative action it has been
impossible for the friends Of primary
education to secure, and it is a curious
fact that the opponents have very gen
orally included those who are opposed
to high schools. The organization of
the rural schools is the same that it
has been for the last hundred years,
and the only objection to a change OF
which we are aware is the fear of a
little additional expense. But if "a
good, substantial education is provid-
ed for all the children Of the country,
there must be a sponding expense;
and the expense must be enough to
employ all those agencies necessary to
see that what IS expended is expended
to the best advantage. Educational

The DeGLLl-4nfe OF

Our country is getting to be fearful
ly alarming, the average of life being
lessened every year, without any rea-
sonable cause, death resulting general
~ from the most insignificant origin.
At this season of the year especially,
a cold is such a common thing that in
the hurry Of every day life we are apt
to overlook the dangers attending it
and often find too late, that a Fever
or Lung trouble has already set in.
Thousands lose their lives in this way
every winter, while had BoScbee'S Ger
man Syrup been taken, cure would
have resulted, and large bill from a
Doctor been avoided. For all diseas-
es OF the Throat and Lungs, BoSchee'S
German Syrup has proven itself to be
the greatest discovery of its kind in
medicine. Every Druggist in this
country will tell you of its wonderful
effect. Over $4,000 bottles sold last
year without single failure known.

A PLEA FOR THE PRIMARY
SCHOOLS.
PBIN. b. M. REYNOLDS. Northfield,
MINI.

PBIN. b. M. REYNOLDS. Northfield,
MINI.
We yield to none in our earnestneSs
for the efficient management of our.
primary and rural district schools. If
they are thoroughly taught and wisely
administers ed, high schools will follow
from Them as naturally us night fol-
lows day.
We believe that city superintendent
should give their most careful alter
ton to their primary and intermediate
grades. They should allow nothing to
interfere with The accomplishment OF
the definite aim with which they are
organized aud maintained
Every principal Of graded school
should carefully watch his primary
grades, see that the proper amount OF
work is done, Of the right kind, and iu|
the right order, These superinten-
dents and principals should protest
against any but the best teachers in
these grades.
i'm the Northwest we think that
these schools Of which we are speaking
do not receive the attention and care
that oheir Importance demands. They
are supported ON a Stinted allowance:
they are in many cases in crowded and
unhealthy rooms; they lack apparatus
and Books Of reference; many of them
are badly claSsed; many Of them are
in charge Of teachers untitled for their
WORK, and the rural districts are badly
supervised, No man of good business
talents, acting upon sound business
principles, would conduct any enter
prise requiring an outlay of money in
any such manner as these schools are
conducted; and because adequate re-
suits are not produced, the fault is
charged home on the teachers instead
of being charged to the system A
grand reformation is very much need
ed in the management Of these schools
in order that they may be rendered
able in some measure to meet the
wants Of the community, and give "a
good, substantial education. ;" These
are the schools in which half the ma
tion get all the school training they ev-
er receive,
All opponents to high schools, 50 far
as we know, avOW their friendship to
primary ard district schools. They de-
clare their desire that all the children
may have " a good substantial educa-
tion that shall fit them to discharge
their duties as citizens" Such is the
published language of Governor Rob
inson of New York, whose opposition
TO normal and high schools is most ma
lignant. Now let these opponents of
nigh schools, who are professedly so
friendly to these lower grades Of
schools, join heart and hand in put
ting more energy and efficiency into
them. There are plenty of friends Of
the high schools ready to cooperate

WORSE THAN VANDALS IN 4 GENIE
Terry.
The Waukegan Patriot Of last Sat
.urday under the caption, Vicious Van
dals, gives an account of Vandals
Fillainy +" in the beautiful Lake
Mound Cemetery, ON the Sand Ridge
road in the town of Benton six miles
north Of Waukogan. A company of
roughs supposed to be drunk had en-
tered the cemetery, as was evident, at
the southeast corner and passed
through the cemetery to the northwest
.corner, throwing down all the monu-
.mentS they could. Two monuments
were so firmly fixed that they failed to
to destroy them, and they passed two
untouched. With these exceptions all
the principal monuments in the GENE
terry We're thrown down and nearly all
broken into two or more pieces. All
| of the monuments were thrown down
in northwesterly direction, as if to
! give the appearance OF their having
been blown down by a strong wind,
but it is known they we've thrown
down. The damage must amount to
some thousands of dollars.
What shall such destruction of mon
uments be called? It is not desecra-
ton; 1t is not iconoclasm: 1t is not
vandalism; What is It? And, after
lit, What next?

Every adult man has 400 square
feet OF lungs; or, rather, the mucous
membrane lining the air cells Of his
lungs, if spread upon a smooth, plane
surface, would cover an extent of 400
square feet.
About two thirds Of a pint Of air is
inhaled at each breath in ordinary res
piration.
A man breathes eighteen times a
minute, and uses 5000 cubic feet, OF
about 375 hogsheads, Of air per hour.
The weight Of the heart is from
eight to twelve ounces. 1t beats 1901
009 times in twenty-four hours.
The stomach daily produces about
nine pounds of gastric juice for the
digestion of the food; its capacity is
about five pints.
An amount of blood equal to the
whole quantity of the body passes
through the heart every minute.
The above is going the rounds Of tie

ARrifish Disease.

The most marked peculiarity that
will impress the American traveller
when he walks the streets of London
for the first time, is the great number
Of excessively fat people whom he
everywhere meets. He at first sup
poses these persons to belong to the
nobility, on the same principle that he
would pronounce them aldermen or
bankers if seen in Boston or New
York. In brief, he labors under the
popular though mistaken impression,
that obesity is invariably the COM
bined result of laziness and high liv-
ing; while in reality it is a constitu-
tiopal disease. Until very recently
thSre was no known remedy for this
uncomfortable disease, and its victims
were obliged to submit to the veXatiOn
and not unfrequent modification that
it occasions. Ailan's Anti-Fat is the
only remedy for this disease, and re-
moves the abnormal condition by
purely natural means. Ask your
druggist for 1t.
