Eighty-two per cent of the reports to
the State Board of health show prevail
ence of influenza Secretary Baker
calls attention To the fact that ten times
as many deaths occur in Michigan from
scarlet fever or diphtheria as from
smallpox; in some years more than
twenty times as many. And while for
these diseases, we have no such proven
tive measure as i'm vaccination for small
poX, they are believed to be truly pre-
ventable by means of isolation of first
cases, disinfection of infected material,
etc, as is smallpox itself. 1t is the
duty of every Board of Health to make
provision for prompt action by its health
officer, without waiting for meeting
of the Board, whenever case of scarlet
fever, diphtheria, smallpox or other
disease dangerous to the public health
occurs within its iuridiction. When
any householder hotel keeper, keeper
of a boarding house, or tenant shall
have reasons to believe that any person
in his family, is taken sick with any
disease dangerous to public health, he
shall Immediately give notice in writing
thereof To some officer of the Board OF
Health. If he shall refuse or willfully
neglect Immediately to give such notice,
he shall be deemed guilty of a mis-
demeanOr, and upon conviction shall
be punished by fine not exceeding 800
and the costs of prosecution, or in de-
fault of payment by Imprisonment not
exceeding ninety days, in the discretion

We call attention this week to the sug-
gestive article of Mr.. Adams found in
another column.
That very many opportunities are lost
of imparting valuable instruction to our
children and young people, by failing to
direct their attention to the study of the
commonest things about them, it is
needless to say, simply seeing things"
in not enough, but to cultivate the habit
of thinking about what they see will be
Of lasting benefit The soil under their
feet, its character and elements, may be
talked about in a very simple way. Even
q tiny leaf, it's structure and shape will
afford q lesson. Let them learn to use
their senses, especially their hands and
their eyes. Stupidity on the part OF
parents and teachers in not being able to
see for themselves as well us unable to
direct the attention of their pupils to
things about them as educators, is la.
inevitable indeed.
We are led to believe more and more in
a very practical education for our young
people. Let the technical education OF
the school room go. We want them to
learn those things which will best prepare
them for the station in life the large ma
iority of them will occupy. AS for geOg
raphy, let them be ignorant ii need be, OF
Afghanistan and BelOchistan, but give
them an accurate knowledge of our own
country and the essential features of our
own State and county in which they live.

them story and incident of history so
fascinating in it's causes and effects, es-
pecialy American history, that they can
not fail but be impressed.

and with rapdity, and know as much Us
will fit him for actual business, it will he

and the non essentials have the gO-by.
But as to reading with ease and fucncy,
writing anu language expression, oral
and written, too much care cannot be
given. To be able to write d good dis
cription of the common occurrences of
every day life, is very important. Indeed
any instruction in things which they will
be sure to need, and not in what they
may possibly need will be wise and best
But we have depressed from the origin

portance of seeing things" as educators
Let us study this matter more ourselves
in order to gain power to lead our
young people to do likewise.

A AFTER.

After the burning heat OF day,
After the sitting, dusty way,
After the weary hours of strife
That dim the eye and try the heart,
Cometh the restful, cooling breeze
COmeth the dewy touch of trees,
Where balmy fragrance soothes the brow
And bids each throbbing pain depart.
After the round of household cares,
The daily cross each mother bears,
After the thickly crowded hours
That leave no time to rest or play,
Cometh the evening, calm and sweet,
Cometh the tread of home-bound feet,
And clinging clasp of loving arms.
Beguiling every care away.
After the battle field of life,
After the hours with danger rife,
After the weary, uphill toll
That marks each day of life below,
Cometh q certain recompense,
COmeth the souls inheritance,
The gOodly land where crystal streams
Through verdant meadows gently flow

The Power of Seeing.

Editor Household Department:
1t is truly astonishing when we reflect
upon how very little we actually SEE of
the world about us. "Having eyes we see
not" is q truth whose real and vast i'm
portance is fully realized by none. The
brst observers behold but shadows or
outlines Of the objects about them.
From our earliest infancy we ought to be
taught to see, to perceive, to understand,
yet the whole course Of education has
been wrenched into the opposite direction
and blindness is cultivated rather than
observation. The servant Of the eyes,
the memory, has been enthroned as the
god to be wOrshiped while actual, intelli-
gent seeing has been repressed and dis
couraged to the great detriment of the
individual and of society.
With what eager earnestness do the
young seek to learn everything possible
about the animal, the vegetable and the
mineral forms about them How they
OverWhelm their elders with pertinent
and many unanswerable questions. How
easily they learn to distinguish species
and varieties, and how readily they re-
member the names given them. Yet all
these Indications as to the true methods
of education are utterly UNDECIDED and
the young are forced by severe penalties
to turn their attention from the useful and
attractive world about them and be con-
fined for six or more hours a day in the
prison pens misnamed halls of education,
whereas they are really Improbable
places OF physical and mental torture,
where sO-called teachers do NOS teach but
simply hear Rotations and weary them
selves and the children in the attempt to
repress every movement OF body and
mind while the hours are devoted to
gorging the memory with useless pabu-
lum.
A few noble educators are earnestly
striving to break the heavy and intricate
ly forged shackles Of medical scholas-
CICiSilI UuC tuCy IlithG very SLOW DEOSFCSS
Our absurd methods Of education cling
to the race like the ''old man OF the sea-"
Like huge octopus, they have succeeded
in cutting off a tentaclc here and there
but the main part OF the repressive,
slnOthering, exhausting incubus remains
and prevents the adoption of right
methods in educatiOn-e-ducO, to draw
out, not to cram in.
Another great and almost insuperable
difficulty is due to the fact that not one
SO called teacher in q thousand knows
how to teach. They are too ignorant of
the things that should be taught. Their
knowledge is but little except mere men,
orjzing. They know very little of the ma
ture OF things needful to be known. The
majority have not even learned how to
think, much less about what to think,
yet they are called teachers

Lemons.

BILE, as they are sure to be in demand Tor
more purposes than one, and are very
healthfuI. It is claimed where q large
quantity of lemons is purchased, and
there is fear of their not keeping till
wanted for use, that if they are placed in
Jar, covered with clear water, and the
water changed each day, they will keep
as long as desired, and are as fresh when
removed from the jar as when first pur-
chased
There are few things as efficacious for
breaking up a cold as hot lemonade,
taken Just before bedtime 1t is best, to
render this more effective, to battle the
feet of the patient in hot water and mus
tard just before retiring, then give hot
lemonade to drink; put the patient to
bed almost Immediately thereafter, there
to remain we'll covered until morning,
when unless there is something more Sc
rious than a cold, the latter will have al
most wholly disappeared.
TO make good lemonade, take q goblet
of hot water, and into it squeeze the juice
OF one medium sized lemon and sweeten
to taste. This makes strong lemonade,
and may not be fancied by some, but it
is one of this kind that will do the most
good when used as q medicine. For a
cough, roasted Or baked lemon is good.
Put q goOd-sized lemon in the oven, and
let it remain till baked, which will be
when the whole is very soft; then take
out and adda quantity OF sugar to make
it thick syrup. Take teaspoonful OF
this frequently, keeping it warm, and un-
less in a very obstinate case, it will effect
cure in q short time.
The juice of a lemon taken in the morn
ing while fasting is often preventive of
those attacks to which bilious people are
SO frequently subjected. Lemon Juice
rubbed over the hands each hight before
retiring will keep them soft and white
It is good for removing tan, and is a
wonderful Whitener Of the skin.
1t is also excellent for taking out stains
from the hands. Women who are careful
of their compilations, and are fond OF
vinegar on certain foods, would do we'll
to use a few drops OF lemon Juice when
any acid is desired, as vinegar has a bad
effect on the skin.
A piece of lemon bound on q corn,
changing for fresh piece each day for
three days, is sail to loosen the corn
that it may be easily removed. Don't
throw away bits of lemonfrom which the
juice has been extracted, for they are
good to keep for cleansing purposes.
When the juice is not convenient, they
are nice to rub on the hands to remove
any ink stain and other discolorations.
A piece of lemon dipped in salt, and rub
bed briskly over a copper kettle, will give
it good polish.
Never eat, or allow to be eaten, bits of
lemon left standing for any length OF
time, more especially where they have so
remained in q sick-ro Don't throw
away any lemon peel, but dry it in the
oven and keep for havOring. A bit OF
this dried peel cooked in apple sauce or
put i'll an apple pie gives q delicious
flavor that nothing else imparts.
