Nature in ejecting the mucus, sllsys
irritation, induces repose, and is the
most popular of all cough cures.
"Of the many preparations before the
public for the cure of colds, coughs,
bronchitis, and kindred diseases, there
is none, within the range of my expert
ence, so reliable as Ayers Cherry Pee
toral. For years was subject to colds,
followed by terrible coughs. About four
years ago, when so afflicted, 1 was ad-
vised to try Ayers Cherry Pectoral and
to lay all other remedies aside. I did
so, and within a week was well Of nv

always kept this preparation in the
house, and feel comparatively secure"

memory Of the names Of places; one mem

are now paying. Just look at the thinness
OF such proposition. How wild and pre .
posterous it isoa the face OF it. The idea
That the success or failure Of iier coal
barge scheme should depend in any ssy

The idea That il there is any money In

SYSTEM.

j. Much better results could be attained
in school. il the teachers were more syste-
matte. A system. like method, may be
right or wrong. This depends upon
whether II is based on sound educational
principles. Even if wrong, IL had better
be systematic wrong, than an Indefinite
haphazard wrong The teacher sh auld
plan definitely the work Of each class and
work according to the plan. If plan rs
lald and then abandoned, it is evident tnat
the teacher is incapable either Of laying a
plan which can be followed or has not the
ability TO work by plan. In either case
he shows the lack OF N important qualif-
cation-a lack which should disqualify
hin for holding an important position in
a school, as much as the lack Of power to
superintend would disqualify a man to
mold the position Of foreman in q mill or
factory. Plan the reading, plan the ge-
ography, plan the number work, anthme-
tic and language. FIX defiuite ideal as
to what should be accomplished. let the
plans be framed according to thot ideal,
and then carry them oat to the very letter,
except, perhaps, as an altered condition
of things may require q slight deviation
rom the Dres"-'hsH course.
