Five Gents,

stronger than that of any nation that has
existed among men. No one places
higher value upon the free school than do.
But much that is called education simply
units men successfully to fight the battle of
life. Much valuable time is wasted in
studying languages that long ago were dead
and histories in which there is no truth.
The object of all education should be to in
crease the usefulness of men. Every human
being should be taught that the first duty
is to take care of himself. and that to be
self Prospecting he must be self supporting.
70 live on labor of others. either by force
which enslaves, or by cunning which robs,
or by borrowing or begging, is wholly dis
honorable. Every man should be taught
some useful art. This would give feeling
of independence. which is the tirmest fOun-
datlOn OF honor or of character. Every
man knowing that he is useful admires
himself In all the schools children should
be taught to work in wood and iron, to un-
derstand the construction and use of ma
chinery, to become acquainted with the
great forces that man is using to do his
work. The present system of education
teaches Names not things. 1t is as though
we should spend years in learning the names
of cards, without playing a game. The
more real education, the less crime and the
more homes, the fewer prisons. Ignorance.
filth and poverty are the missionaries Of
crime. AS long as dshonorable success
Outranks honest effOrt-as long as

before the great thieves there will be little
ones enough to fill the jails. All the pen
alties all the punishments are inflicted un-
der belief that man can do right under all
circumstances-that his conduct is absO-
lutely under his control. and that his will
is pilot that can. in spite of winds and
tides reach any port desired. In all this,
in my Judgment. we must take into cOnsid-
GRAFTON the nature of man-the facts of
mind-the power OF temptation. the lmita-

suit of heredty, the power of passion. the
domination of want. the disease of the

of conditions the results of association.

fttingly close this address than by quoting

A RefOrmatOry Agent.

Yesterday morning. exercises of unusual
interest were held in the chapel of the Ne
braska penitentiary. For the second time
the regular Sunday services were placed in
charge of the Chautauquans, and several
dozen members of the different circles of
the city were present. A meeting of the
penitentiary circle was held after the
services. and it was encouraging to see the
interest taken in the work by the forty. five
prisoners in this class.
The Chautuaqua influence is just break
ing into the penitentiaries of the country.
The Nebraska circle is one of the earli-
est and thanks to the enthusiasm of the
ChautauquanS of the city, the wise co Oper-
alton of the prison authorities and the men,
tai capacity of the members of the class. it
promises to soon rank among the best of
such organizations.
A hint to those in charge of prisons may
be found in the effect of this ChautauQua
work upon the cOnvictS who have become
members of the circle. Nearly all are young
men who expect to spend the best part of
their lives outside the prison walls. No.
few are preparing to become good citizens
when they are set at liberty, and nearly all
are much improved in conduct and appear
ance through the inspiration given by their
studies. They become better workers in
the shops and better men in prison life
generally.
1t is too much to hope that they will con-
tinue these efforts in self-imprOvement after
their liberation? If they do the time and
money required for the work is clearly we'll
expended. Even if the influence does not
go beyond the prison walls, it will pay to
encourage the organization of these circles
as means of securing better discipline and
greater efficiency among the men who labor.
The ChautauQua idea seems destined to
play all important part in reformatory work
in prisons, and Nebraskans will take pride
in the work already accomplished here

NEW YORK, Dec. l6.-The stock mar
ket seemed utterly devoid of support
this morning and prices yielded easily
and the day was one OF continuous de-
cline from opening TO close. Many stop
orders were uncovered while the narrow
ness of the market was still one of the
most conspicuous features and dizziness
marked the trading. During most of
the afternoon the downward movement
made fair progress and the losses at the
lowest prices extended to about 81 per
cent. Lackawanna was the only stock that
gave evidence of any support at all and
that for only short time in fhe after
noon. The close was steady after

USING THE TEETH.
Neglect of Mast5cation Makes Them
Tender and So9tens the Enamel.


Tender and Softens the Enamel
The law Of deterioration from disuse
obtains with the teeth. as we'll as with
other things TIE constant and regular
use of them in masticating hard food
tends to make them continually grow
harder and stronger ana better able to
resist The Influences that make tor de-
cay, while on the other hand, living on
soft food and neglect Of mastication
makes them tender, softens the enamel
and renders them easily susceptible to
corroding effects. This is sometimes
especially shown in the case Of people
after a long illness. Who find their teeth
tender and sore when they begin TO re-
turn to a diet of solid. hard food. A
dentist, speaking on the subject, says:
Some men have healthy teeth all their
lives because they were given hard
food during infancy. That is the period
to begin to save the teeth. Mothers and
nurses give children soft food utterly
ignorant in many cases Of the result
Crusts and hard stufis should be given
to them as soon as they can eat them.
In this way the teeth begin to grow
healthy, and gradually harden with
time and use. The chewing gum girl
gives her molars plenty Of wholesome
and unwholesome exercise. Bat chew
ing gum is not especially healthy be-
cause only part of the teeth are used
1t is jaw exercise more than any thing
else But in eating hard wholesome
food all the teeth come in contact With
the substance. Tobacco-chewing is not
healthy for the teeth, because the tobac.
co is generally placed in one location,
ike chewing and there remains
until thrown out The Southern ne
groes have better teeth than most any
race, because they use them from child.
