The suggestion Is sometimes made that the
school course should be shortened in order to
provide schools and teachers for much larger
number than that which it is possible TO accom-
modsts in the buildings and properly instruct
under the existing system OF public schools.

modes of preparation. These were so
adapted to the healthy natural wants of
the system that its conditions were met.
and no room was left for the craving
for StimulaHtS. Perhaps the rabbi was
ungallant and preiudiced, but he in
sisted that the good ladies could do
more for temperance by diligent
study of cook books than by giving
their efforts to the delivery of public adj
dresses denouncing all use of alcoholics.
He would have the temperance head
quarters put in the kitchen. AS evil
dence of the righteousness of his view
he holds up the record of his race for
1000 years. Could he adduce statistics
and panoramas of Jewish life in all the
past time with medical and undertake
erS' picturing, he would perhaps better
satisfy some of the critical; but it is a
fact that may be asserted with much
poSitiveneSs, regardless of faith or race,
that feeding which sufficiently nourishes
and invigorateS. and has no dySpeptic
sequences, promotes temperance in
drinking. The rabbi would further
have the serenity and enjoymen
of the home made an important factor
in the Sobriety of the Jewish people.
The home not infrequently makes the
drunkard. Where content and peace
have sway. and all the inmates con-
tribute to the pleasure and comfort Of
each other. the repulsion that drives to
other scenes of solace is not had.
Whether the rabbi has full warrant for
the application Of his theory is not con-
sidered, but there are i'll his statements
incentives to useful inquiry.

ANOyEL QUESTION.

The higher courts will have delicate.
and perhaps far-reaching line of in
Quiry suggested when the appeal comes
from the defense in murder trial in
Kansas, where verdict of guilty was
found as result of prayer offered by
clergyman introduced into the jury
room for the purpose his precation sub
served. Judicial red tape is not much
in vogue in that state. The trial had
tried the patience of the court, and it
was aggravated to the bursting point by
the peryerSity of the jury in hanging.
1t threatened to disturb the programme
the judge had arranged for himself. In
the western part of Kansas it might be
supposed that reasonable jury would
solve such a dilemma with a pack of
cards. but this judge was devout,
as well as wise man. He be-
lieved that supernal aid could be
brought into reqaisitiOn and a verdict
extracted. He secured a clergyman
who was noted not only for fervor in
his devotions, but ability to triumph in
the spirit over the weakness of the
flesh. This man of prayer was to 60 to
thejury room at 8 o'clock in the morning
and pray till the jury consented to
verdict. After All hour and half the
most stubborn necks in the room weak
ened. Human endurance was exhausted.
A verdict of guilty was found. 1t is
not alleged that the preacher iabOred
for that verdict specifically, but it will
be for the high court to determine
whether there was illegal influence
brought into the jury room, and if the
new method in judicial production can
be made a fixture.

THE NEW REMEDY

People become impatient that the
preparation by Dir. KOCH for the relief
of consumption is not making times
gloomy for the gravediggers all at once.
Some authorized samples of it have
been brought to this country, and in
reasonable time 1t will be generally in
the possession of the medical experts
who care to test it. So far it has hardly
passed the experimental stage with its
diScoyerer. The final sphere assigned
it is likely to be very much smaller than
eager hopes have pictured. Persons
whose lung tissues have been destroyed
by the disease need not look to it as a
rebuilder. Science is long distance
yet from the period that it will be
able to follow nature in creative
work. People in advanced stages
Of lung trouble had better still rely
upon high attitudes and mild climates.
1t is matter of surprise often that per-
sons who care to protract life neglect
this recourse. One of the most robust
looking physicians now in Southern
Colorado has no lungs to speak of, and
was getting very near the death line in
the East decade ago. 1t is reported
from Paris that five deaths there have
been caused by Dr.. KocH's lymph.
Probably it does in cases hasten death.
Still, the outlook is hopeful for the
most encouraging advance III the sci
ence Of medication of the age. 1t is re-
ported from Berlin that the lymph has
shown efficacy in cases of leprosv. A
recent lecturer in this city said that it
was necessary now to invent new dis
eases every year in order to furnish
employment to the swelling hordes
of medicants. There are newcom-
erS like the grippe, but it is
believed that the most prevalent and
fatal enemies to health and life have
all related impulse, to the discovery of
which the investigations Of the Ger
man scientists are tending. 1t may be
hoped with a good deal of assurance
that the time is not distant when a new
and far more successful line of attack
may be had on cholera, diphthera, scar
let fever. yellow fever, and even cancer.
They may be overcome in their early
stages, If not cured in all their more
virulent developments. The average
of human life is much greater than it
has been; as civilization and refinement
progress, medical discovery may not
only prolong existence. but make it
pleasanter by removing apprehension
of the great epidemic Scourges.
