with which he is compelled to get it

taken before the Commissioners of the
Orphans Home on Friday. The article

institution will be impresa<,, VIII, the
idea that the State needs a Reform
School and an Orphans Home run as
separate institutions. There are mixed
up in the sch00i together two separate
classes of children; one the offspring of
dissoIute, vicious parents, and another
springing from a respectable source, of
delicate, sensitive natures and born
with the best instincts. The mixing
together of these two classes results in
q leven Of badness efiecting the whole
lump. 1t is a sad fate for the gently
bred to be forced into contact with other
children who from their cradles inner
tied the worst instincts; all studying in
the same class, eating at the same table,
playing on the same ground ana sleep
ing under the same roof. Regarding
the governing Of vicious children a
wide difference of opinion prevails.
Whether rigorous system Of punish
ment or a uniform course of kindness,
works the best results is problematical
question. We do not believe that a
rawhide is proper reformatory instru
ment. Badness cannot be whipped out
of a boy. 1t may be beaten from the sur
face only to break forth again, like
smallpox, pustules if treated outwardly.
A naturally bad boy only becomes the
more surly, stubborn and ungovernabe
if subjected to harsh treatment, and a
teacher with the best educational quail
ifications is nevertheless a failure if I'M
able to succeed in winning the per-
sonal regard OF the scholars. Due al
loWance must be made for childish
whims and instincts. With professional
teachers there is a disposition to assert
q certain sort OF ''authority' by making
sch GLARS toe lines, sit in certain posi-
tions and refrain from some natural and
trivial thing, as if it We're a crime.
They are hampered with scores OF Use
less rules which only irritate and an

should be recognized as having feelings |

SALT FOR THE THROAT.-In these
days, when diseases of the throat are so
universally prevalent, and in so many
cases fatal, we feel it our duty to say
word in behalf of most effectual, if
net positive, cure for sore throat.
For many years past-indeed, we may
say during the whole of a life of more
than forty years-we have been subject
to sore throat, and more particularly to
a dry hacking cough. which is not only
distressing to ourselves, but to our
friends and those with whom we are
brought into business contact.
Last fall we were induced to try what
virtue there was in common salt. We
commenced by using it three times
day-morning, noon, and night. We
dissolved large tablespoonful of pure
salt in about half small tumbler full of
water. With this we gargle the throat
most thoroughly just before meal time.
The result has. been that during the en-
tire winter we were not only free from
coughs and colds, but the dry hacking
cough has entirely disappeared.
We attribute these satisfactory re-
suits sOlely to the use of salt gargle, and
most cordially recommend trial of it
to those who are subject to diseases of
the throat.
Many persons who have never tried
the salt gargle have the impression that
it is unpleasant. Such is not the case.
On the contrary, it is pleasant, and after
few days's use no person who loves
nice clean mouth and first-rate sharp
ener of the appetite will abandon it.

JOHN S WISE ON SCALLAWAGS.-It
is said that not many years ago Captain
John S. Wise did not have a very fa-
vorable opinion of scallawag. While
visiting the Eastern Shore on one occa-
sion he defined this factor" in politics
as "looking like negro, acting like
negro, dressing like negro, and SMELL
ing like negro,n or words to that eff
feet. On recent visit to northampton
county he was asked by a gentleman,
"Well, Wise, what is your opinion of
how a scallawag smells now ?" When
he replied, "Oh! sweetly." To-be-sure
he has an unquestioned right to change
his opinion of scallawags as of anything
else -NorJolk Virginian.
Certainly he has; and then he has
the right to turn scallawag himself if
he pleases.- Conservative Democrat.
