PATRIOTISM In THE SCHOOLS.
Says the New York Tribune:

L
Both Superintendent Draper of the State De-
partment of Public Instruction, and President
Simmons, of the Board of Education of this
city, refer with some anxiety to the fact that
our common school system is not sufficiently fla
yored with patriotism. Little is done in the
school-room to stimulate patriotic sentiment
The history of the United States occupies too
small place in the average course of study
The peculiar institutions of the country, those
which in so marked manner distinguish its
government from all others that are or have
been, are not presented to the pupils mind with
proper fullness or clearness.
If the teaching of children in the public
schools of New York how to be good citi-
zens, and how to read and study and OBJ
serve our system of government is no more
thorough than in California, then Messrs.
Draper and Simmons are justified in their
anxiety. The American spirit, true pa
triotism, ought to be more encouraged in
the schools Every schoolboy of twelve
ought to be able to repeat the Declaration
of Independence-as in period, now APP
parently forgotten, most schoolboys could
and to explain its origin, the causes that
produced it and the results that followed
it. Moreover, every schoolboy ought
to be taught, in plain, sim
pie manner, of the system and
method of our government, the general
principles of the law of personal and prop
ertyS rights, the duty of the good citizen
and the reasons why certain obligations
are imposed upon members of society
Superintendent Draper Of New York is
right in the suggestion that in every school
an occasional hour should be set apart for
exercises which would lead children to
revere and love their country. We have
no right to leave our children at the
mercy of haphazard ways of acquiring
knowledge of our political and social sys-
TENS, nor yet TO the chance of correct
book upon these subjects falling into their
hands. OF course we should teach them
ourselves but only a few can do this with
success. The school ought to give them
the groundwork for a fair understanding Of
the American method of government and
the eternal truths underlying it. AS the
Tribune remarks
1t is necessary that knowledge of American
institutions should be a specific and required
feature of the course. American history should
be taught with great thoroughness. The cor
rupting influence of alien and even revolution
airy ideas is actively at work in the cities 1t
can only be met by bringing up boys, and girls
too, in the doctrines of democracy. They must
know how properly to estimate the opportuni-
ties given in land where individual liberty
and majestic law go hand in hand.

PASADENA, January 4 1888.
DEAR WIFE: | will say few words as re-
CARDS the climate of the so-called Golden State
the land of fruit and aowers-and especially
of the climate, which has been claimed to be
the best in the world. Now let me give, or
state, what has taken place since my arrival on
the I'd of this month On Tuesday, the Sd, it
rained all day, mixed with snow and hail,
washing the streets into cutters, and causing a
washout on the railroad. delaying travel. On
Wednesday the 4th, it rained in the forenoon
in the afternoon it broke away, seemingly. so
that S. S. Milford and myself started out for a
little walk, but ere we had been gore half an
hour heavy rain, accompanied with hail and
snow causing us 10 seek shelter i'll an unoccu-
pied barn for an hour or more. when Stacking
some we started home. The 5th another day of
rain, mixed with snow and hail. The 9th, as
usual, hail. snow and rain, but in less quanti-
ties. Citizens say this has been the coolest and
most disagreeable weather that they have ever
seen in this place. But lo-and-behold, the sew
enth day of the week and month 1t was frozen
hard enough to bear up a man. The Migrants
were frozen, and it is reported that a couple OF
boys were frozen TO death; the wind blew ana
whistled around the corners OF the house, re-
minding me of the nights in Iowa last Novem-
Der; at 10 A. NJ sun shining rightly. How is
this for the garden spot of the world?
Now, let me give the prices of some OF the
things which go to make life happy ana Joyous

THO Worry Toughest of All.

So tough, SO hard, SO difficult to drive out is
that hateful old malady, rheumatism, that
people sometimes endure its tormentS for years
and years, under the mistaken idea that moth
ing can overcome it, just what mistake
such people make may he inferred from the
case OF Miss Wniree, of lynChburg, Va. She
had been afflicted with rheumatism since she
was four years old. When she was thirteen
her father thought il would be u good idea to
try Compound Oxygen on her.
What was the effect on this rheumatism of
nine years standing? For the first few days
the young lady was discouraged was pale, and
had little strength; thought it affected her
heart.
But how was it after five weeks? Altogether
n different experience. Her father wrote:
"Withiu week from beginning tho use Of
the Oxygen she began TO show signs Of I'M
proVement; since then her recovery has been
remarkable. | have never seen anything to
equal II, The action of the heart Is quiet and
soft, there has been no sign Of rheumatism; ;
she sleeps swoetly all night; has fine appetite /.
has gained many pounds Of flesh and has con-
siderable color; can walk all about the house,
and has paid two or three visits in the neigh
borhood."

Oxygen. and send for tho treatise about it,

Of Today and for TODAY

That is exactly what Hoods Sarsaparilla is. tits
emphatcallya modern medicine-a combination of
vegetable remedies all OF which long experiment.
and study have proven to be of positive value.
Hoods sarsaparille is also prepared by men Of
today, experts whose education, experience
brain work, and time, with the light of modern
developments have made them as much more
competent than their fathers to prepare reliable
medicine as can be imagined.
Farther than this, not content to follow in old
ruts, and take for granted whatever was told them,
these men have by long and patient study developed
a combination proportion and preparation in pro-
ducing Hoods Sarsaparia which gives to this
medicine curative power.
