The Industrial Institute for White
uirls.\

EDITORS CLARION: In establishing
the Industrial Institute for White Girls,
the State of Mississippi has made a rapid
stride In the march of progress. Our
people were grateful to the Legislature
and prayer of thankfulness went up
from the heart of every true mother at
the thought that our daughters were no
longer aliens but are permitted to enjoy
equal privileges with their brothers.
Our Institute has set sail under
auspieious circumstances. 4 good board
Of trustees; a president whose heart is
in his work location which cannot be
surpassed, surrounded by warm friends
who will use every means to build il up.
Consecrated with the prayers of loving
hearts and earnest souls of Mississippi
mothers, how can it fail TO become all
| that our fondest dreams have pictured
it? Yet there are people so increduIous
as to ask such questions as these: Will
these trustees and the gifted president
make the Institute industrial in practice
or only IN manner Do they realize the
necessities of those women who will
nave to work for their living? Will they
not force | curriculum on student who
| only wishes to utilize one branch? Will
| 1t not be the rich mans school and lust
out OF the poor reach? We believe the
trustees viii be able to settle these
doubts satisfactorily to all parties We
know the people are watching them, and
are asxiously waiting to know what
| manner of a school they viii establish.
Will it afford relief for workingmen bv
/ diverslfylng their labor? We saw ,copaeE.
| for there are those of mature wears who
anxiously hope to be permitted to enter
| the Institute TO learn an art or science
and would be glad of the privilege of
| paying their own expenses.
Can the poor afford to attend the In
stitute? We think they can. We know
they can, if the mothers Of NTssissiDD,
,ciH sag Il shall be so.
| Mr. Editor, viii you not aid nv feeble
pen with your CLARION voice? Let Us
call them from the hiil-sides and valleys,
the rich mans hall and the poor man
cabin, let US invoke their aid for the
poor girls of our State Women OF
| Mississippi, this Is noble work. Let us
organize and see il we cannot raise a
sufficient sum in each cohdty TO send
two girls. Our proposition is
lst. Leta society be formed in each coun
tyto raise money by private subscription
or otherwise to defray the expenses oil
two girls while learning aa art or scieae.
IN the Industrial Institute.
I'd. That these girls be examined by
an impartial board and selected on com
petitive examination.
| 3D. These girls 50 educated be allowed
five years to refund the money used In
their education without interest) se
that the money may become an educa
tional fund.
| We hope the hearts of our women vii
favor this work and We will be glad t.
hear from any who win unite with us te
help the poor girls of our State to obtair
such an education as will enable them ts
earn better living.

Individuality I'm Stationery.

Naturally enough every fashionable
woman considers her taste superior to
that of others. She wants to be charac-
teristic, and consequently not only
manipulates her pen as no one else can
and writes her letters criss-cross fash
ion, but adopts a certain style of paper
and ink, and these she retains in spite
of the yagaries of designers and manu-
facturers. This aiming at something
to give individuality to the stationery
is difficult task, since the regulation
thing is a white, thick sheet of paper,
cut to suit the fancy, and an envelope
to match No decoration whatever is
tolerated by people of reputed good
taste unless it be in the form of some
heraldic device or monogram, and then
the owner must have indisputable claim
to warrant its use. Aside from this
crest there is almost no possible way of
throwing 4 Thomas CARLYLE veil about
the posse sions of Thomas Carlyle as did
that individual. Perfumery is per-
missible, but there is danger of over
doing the matter and making the odor
intrusive. Some people have the habit
of putting n geranium-leaf or modest
violet in every letter they send, and
other eccentrics have made themselves
conspicuous by putting double postage
on the letters they write. There is but
one way to humor this fancy and
achieve the apparent individuality de-
sired, and that is to adopt a certain
kind or variety of letter-paper and en-
velope and retain it through all time.
The idea is a good one in many re-
spects; it has the advantage of econo-
my and it is somewhat indicative of
stability. Chicago Tribune.

Some Eood Cor Relocation.

The age to which we have at present
attained may be stated thus: Compar-
ed with the period lS38-1854 (the ear
liest for which there are trustworthy
records. the average of mans life
now is AIS years instead of 1913, and
of woman's 45.3 instead of 4i.9years,
an addition of 8 per cent. to the female
life and per cent. to the male. OF
each thousand males born in the pres
ent dav, "A more will attain the age of
35 than used to be the case previous to
1871. For the whole of life the esti-
mate ROW is, that of 1000 persons
(one-half males and one-half females)
30 survive at the age of forty-five, 20
at fiftv-five, at sixty-five, at seventy
five, and at eighty-tive. To put the
case in another way, every thousand
persons born since 1870 will live about
2,700 years longer than before. In
other words, tho life of thousand per-
sons is now equal in duration to that OF
1910 persons previously; and 1000
births will now keep up the growth OF
our population as well as 1,070 births
used to do. This is equivalent in re-
suit to an increase of our population,
and in the best form, viz, not by more
births but by fewer deaths, which
means fewer maladies and better health.
What is more, nearly 20 per cent. OF
this increase of life takes place Cor IS

Temperance Lesson-Book.
BY wM. NJ. THAYER.

The Temperance Lesson Book, hy
Dr. Richardson, of England, one of the
most distinguished physicians in the
world, OPENS an epoch in the history OF
the temperance reform. 4 large ma
iority of druukards become so through
sheer ignorance They are men and
women who know nothing about the
nature and effects of alcohol, and moth
ing about their own physical structure.
Let the children in our public schools
study this admirable work, and they
will not grow up in such ignorance OF
themselves and of one of the most de
structive agents to mankind. The school
boards of London, Manchester, Leeds
etc, England, have introduced this text
book into their public schools, which is
ample endorsement of the work. The
people of England were never charge
able with fanaticism on the temperance
question, so that we may justly infer
that the introduction of this book into
the public schools of their great cities is
the result of reflection, in connection
with the intrinsic value of the book.
Coming from the brain and pen of DR..
Richardson, it won a reputation at once,
of course, since he stands at the head of
his profession in his native country
But aside from that, the school boards
named must have found the book a val
liable accession to the scientific re
elrchess of the times, or they would not
have introduced it into their schools.
In our youth DIR. Cutter prepared a
for the Young, and it was
into the public schools of
Massachusetts. We remember to have
learned from it the names of all the
bones, arteries, organs, etc, belonging
to the body, and it was esteemed quite
an acquisition to be able to rattle them
off in the class, whether understood or
not. Doubtless an intelligent parrot
might have been taught to do the same.
But when the whole book was committed |
to memory and our physiological educa
ton completed, the real practical knowl |
edge acquired was small.
Here is a text book that treats of the |
effects of one agent, alcohol, upon the |
human body, its physiological effects. |
1t explodes incidentally many of the |
false theories entertained respecting |
alcohol as food, heat producer, etc. |
etc, and with facts and scientific inves |
.igations establishes the truth beyond |
Deradventure. 1t is just the knowledge |
that our youth should possess, before
his subtle agent has lured them away |
After the appetite for drink has been |
formed such knowledge is of little avail |
Very few hard drinkers ever renounct |
heir cups because alcohol is destroying |
heir st0machs and otherwise inflictine |
physical injury upon them. Only give |
,hem drink, and stomach, liver, brain |
body, and soul may go to the had or
not; what care they?

A Sense of Honor.

The following is taken from an edi-
torial in The Century for December:
There is little doubt that the thing
which most needs to be preached to
this generation of Americans, by min
listers of the gospel, by both clerical
and Law instructors of the youth, by all
who have public influence or private
authority, fs-a sense of honor! 1t must
be shown and insisted upon that every
position in life where one person Is en-
ployed by another to do certain work.
imposes an obligation to fulfill the du-
ties of the place with an honorable and
disinterested regard for the interests OF
the employer. 1t must be shown that
this view of employment applies to the
cook, the errand-boy, the cashier, the
legislator, the Governor, the President.
This is a trite, and appar ly simple,
and perhaps somewhat id view Of
the opportunities of a smart" and
ambitious young American of our day;
but unless this commonplace view OF
responsibility is laid hold of by increas-
inr numbers in the future of our eoun-
try, we will not say that our society
will 90 to pieces, but we will say thai
our calamities will increase, and thai
we will get into troubles, and not soor
out of them, compared with which the
dangers and distress of the past vii
seem almost Insignificant

A Crusty Old Bachelor.

1t was in Pullman sleeping-car in
the middle of the night.
The passengers were all asleep but
two. One of these, an elderly female,
was moaning in an undertone;
..Oh, I am so dry, am so d.. am
so very, very dry
She kept this monotonous cry up un-
til the other wakeful passenger, an old
bachelor in the berth opposite grew
wild. He got up, CROPPED his way to
the end Of the car where the porter was
engaged in blacking boots, gave him a
coin, and told him to take pail of ice
water to the old lady and see that she
drank every drop of it. Then be got
back into his berth.
The porter carried out his instruc-
tions, the old lady thanked him CRATE
fully, and all was quiet
Presently, and just as the old fellow
was losing himself in sleep, the same
voice querulously piped out:
.sOh, was so dry. | was so dry.
was so very. very dry
The bachelor passenger bounded to 8
sitting posture, bumped his head
against the bottom of the berth above
him, poked his face through the cur
tains, and shouted Indignantly:
