Training The Youth.

We concur fully with the Farm
and Fireside in its efforts to point
out the many blunders III domestic
training of children. That excel
lent journal urges the necessity OF
correct pronunciation Of words and
personal attention to the style and
manner of expression as the child
grows and improves. 1t adds: if
this is matter of importance, not
less so is it to carefully watch the
subject of conversation and guard
against the common fault of exag-
geration and superfuous and mae
curate adjective, which are faults
so often heard among young
people.
Nothing in the home life need
be more CAREFULLY watched than
the home conversation. Beauty
and sweetness of character cannot
thrive in an atmosphere of fault
finding, strife and pickering. One
of the best aids to good converse
ton is the reading of good books,
talking about what has been read.
While children should always feel
free to tell mother everything, yet
be very careful that a taste of Cos
sip is not engendered. "The best
way" some one has said, ''to Grad
icate vice is to implant virtue"
So the best way to keep gossip out
of conversation is to have the mind
so filled with good thoughts that
there is no room for trivial discus
sion of other peoples affairs, their
personal appearance, manner and
doings.
Every home should erect bull
wark against the tide of slang and
exaggerated expression which is
threatening to overwhelm our
mother tongue. When everything
from party to a mountain scenery
is described as perfectly grand"
magnificent, GLORIOUS" etc., and
dogs, flowers, concert or young
men are perfectly exquisite, "
lawful NICE" etc, these adjectives
certainly lose their significance,
and how is one to know what is
meant? Such careless, extrava-
giant habit of speech lead to care
less thinking and toward decided
untruthfulness.

Deafness Can't be Cured

by local application, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way TO cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition of the
mueus lining of the Enstachian Tube
When this tube gets inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be destroy

by catarrh, which is nothing but an in.

An Editors Experience.

Major Sidney Herbert, a we'll
known journalist in agricultural
circles, writes April 18th, 1889:
Some five years ago 1 wrote a
letter stating that Swift's Specific
had cured me Of severe rheuma-
tism. Since that time 1 have had
no return of the rheumatic troub-
les, although frequently exposed
to the influences that produced
attacks. Several of my friends
had similar experience, and are
firm in their conviction that S. S. S.
brought permanent cure. The
searching power of this medicine
is shown in the fact that it devel-
oped a scrofulous faint that was
conspicuous in my blood over
thirty years ago, and has removed
the last trace of 1t. L have also
tested S. S. S. as a tonic after a
severe attack of malarial fever,
which kept me in bed for three
months, and am convinced that its
curative and strengthening pro-
perties insured my recovery from
that illness, as l was in a very low
Of health.

Several Criminal Gases in Chicago in
Peculiar Situation.
CHICAGO, August 16.-[Special Telegram to
THE BEE. The death of Judge William
son has left several cases, which were pend
ing before him in the criminal court, in a
peculiar situation. 1t has always been the
invarable rule that when a case is tried be-
fore particular judge, that same judge
shall have control of it until it is finished.
If, after verdict of guilty, a motion for a
new trial is entered, The same judge must
always hear the arguments on the motion,
either granting new trial or sentencing the
convicted man.
1t happened that during the last six weeks
of Judge Williamson's service on the bench
he tried several important cases, in some of
which severe penalties were imposed by the
juries. One of these cases was that of PletZ
and johnson, the young burglars who re-
celved ten and five years. respectively. The
men mentioned took their punishment very
hard and their attorneys asked for another
trial, but the judge was too sick to hear the
arguments, and went to his country home,
where he died. The matter has been much
talked about among the lawyers who fire.
quent the criminal courts, and there is a diff
ference of opinion as to whether another
indge can dispose of the motions for a new
trial. States Attorney Lougenecker is of
the opinion that any Judge can take up the
cases where they were left by Judge Will
hanson, but Judge Mcconnell who sue
ceeded the deceased in branch No. 2 of the
criminal court, has already expressed diff
ferent opinion. Unless he changes his mind
johnson and Pletz, as well as number of
other convicted criminals. are likely to re-
ceive punishment; at any rate, 1t is probable
that each will secure new trial and have

ACCEPTED A REDUCTION.
The Illinois Miners Finally Agree to
Compromise Out.

The Illinois Miners Finally Agree to
n Compromise Gut.
CHICAGO, August 16.-W. l.. Scott of Penn
sylvania, and other owners of coal mines in
northern Illinois are in the city to- day for
the purpose of comforting with the repre-
sentatiyes of the laborers at the various
mines on the subject of wages. Each body
held conference with closed doors this
morning, and they will hold joint meeting
and discuss the situation this afternoon.
The miners want the price of mining re-
stored to the scale of last year, from which
there has been q reduction of 10 per cent.
The mine operators say they can not do this
without losing money.
When the mine owners and the repl esent-
atives of the wage workers faced each other,
Scott's superintendent announced that the
full reduction would be insisted upon. The
uncompromising ultimatum was met by the
miners with the instant adjournment
of the convention sine die Operator
E. l.. Mouser interposed with the
information that the announcement by
Scott's representative was not altogether
satisfactory to the other mine owners. Three
hours of hot debate ensued, and when re-
cess was finally taken there seemed
little prospect of compromise
Tonight the wrangling continued. The
mine owners finally offered to
make reduction of IN cents instead of
10 cents. Congressman Lawler and other
wage workers conference on the ground of
being agitators who were preventing set
tlement. After midnight the miners COM
mittee agreed to the figures proposed, con-
ditioned on an advance of 215 cents on Octo-
