SHEEP OR HENS

1t is given out as the conclusion of
Mr.. Mckinley and the Majority of the
Ways and Means Committee, that the
American sheep is disappointment.
Though this meek domestic animal has
been most carefully protected during the
past twenty-five years it has steadily re-
fused TO take its proper place as shin
ing example" of the benefits of this
nurture. lie has not kept up with the
progress of the country. In proportion
TO the population forty years ago there
was a sheep head for everyone in the
country; now the sheen are 20,000,0 900
short of enough TO go round.
But the old provcrb that what one
loses another gains bids fair to hold
good in this case. The Ways and
Means Committee, disguised and dis
tressed by the apathy of the sheep in
dustIy, has turned its attention toward
hat interesting domestic bird, the farm
yard hen. The virtues of this fecund
fowl have too often been kept under a
bushel But it is matter of fact, en-
tirely susceptible of proof, that without
waiting for any tariff or other regu-
lations, it has gone on, almost without
variation, putting its product on the
market undeterred by fear or favor
The committee has ascertained that
this sometimes vivacious and flippantly
loquacious but generally unpretentious
fowl adds more to the wealth of the
country each year than all the sheep in
it. This fact is henceforth to be duly
recognized. No more will the American
hen be required to do her best against
foreign competition. \ tariff duty is to
be impo sed on eggs.

LIGHTHIlL employs his recent invention
(highly approved by Sir Morell Mackenzie
and other eminent throat specialists, and
adopted in all the throat hospitals in Lon
donl which converts any liquid medicine
instantaneously into vaporous consistency
so very fine as to remain suspended in the
air like smoke, and can be inhaled and
brought in direct contact with the whole
respiratory tract, from the smallest cavity
in the head and nasal passages TO the most
remote air-cells of the lungs, without the
slightest pain or discomfort. BY means of
this new treatment

CATA X Ri.


Being enabled to send remedials into each
minute cavity or crevice of the nasal passage
and head, destructive to the bacill or germ
upon which catarrh in all its forms depends
we have the means to effect complete and
permanent cure of this loathsome complaint,
even in cases heretofore given up as incura-
BILE.
From the very start the good effect Of this
new treatment isfelt, nasal distractions are
removed hawking coughing, hoarseness and
droppings in the throat promptly abate, and
the breath becomes pure. DEAFNESS from
catarrhal causes is promptly removed; the
eyes become strong, all other symptoms dis.
appear, and finally perfect and permanent
cure is effected.

IT WOULD SEEM that in all parts of
the country the weather of this winter
has been disappointment. In San
Francisco the inclement, rainy weather
has prevented outdoor work and left a
very considerable portion of the labor
ing classes in circumstances of distress.
The city government is to be importuned
TO take immediate measures for their
relief. The worst thing about such re-
lief is that it seldom comes soon enough
to do the most good; in other words,
when II becomes available, it will gen
orally be found that the worst suffering
has been endured and is, perhaps, be-
yond remedy.

AMEn1oAN sn ,MnN WANTED

The complaints against the discipline
which Commander McCNlla attempted
to enforce on board the Enterprise at
tract attention once more to the fact
that the vast majority of sailors in the
American navy are foreigners. The
crew of the Enterprise, from which
there were so many desertions during
its recent voyage, was ouly about one
fourth American.
When Commander McCalll was on
duty here at the Navy Department he
was universally esteemed an officer Of
good sense and sound patriotism. His
troubles in the command of his ship,
such as they are, seem to have arisen
from his desire TO improve the service
by the enforcement Of rigid discipline.
On one point certainly he is thoroughly
in the right He holds that the only
way to create truly American
navy is "to offer inducements
to American boys of good char
acler and associations TO enlist as
naval apprentices and look to the naval
service as career" and that 1t is sound
policy to put new ships in commission
"only as fast as properly trained Ameri
can blue jackets can be put on board to
keep them orderly and efficient" The
Washington correspondent of the New
York HcjuM states Commander Nc
Cn11ofp ,tinv,
1t was a favorite remark Of his that a
new type of seamen was more needed than
new type of cruiser, and that It was q
mistaken policy to pay attention so exclu-
sively to the provision Of vessels, for which
fit crews could not be had from the ruff
scuff of foreign merchant service.
This statement by an experienced oili-
Ger shows the Importance of the pro
posal recently made to establish a
school-ship here at Washington. Be.

should in the main be manned by Ameri-
can sailors,

TIE NEW ENGLISH invasion seems to
be one Of capital. English syndicates
have bought up our breweries, are buy
ing up our oyster canneries and are
threatening to buy up the Chicago
Worlds Fair. But it has never been
anticipated that an English syndicate
would have the temerity to reach
forth for our spirituallstic appurtenan-
ees. Yet the announcement is made
that the American Society for Psychi-
cal Research has disbanded for
want of ghosts and become a mere
branch of the English society Of the
same name. This certainly looks sus-
picious. The American ghost out put
may have been disappointing in recent
years, but such as it was and is, it is hu-
initiating TO see it pass under English
control

Hduoatl0nal Enserprl.a in shs seu.A.

We We're shown today a well
executed and finely finished map of
Marion county, Fla, which will be
exhibited with the Florida display
at the International Teachers Asso-
citation at st. Paul, Mimi, next
month. The map was drawn by
Prof. Streater, of the Ocala High
School, who is summering here, and
colored by Miss Ethel Streater, of
the Ninth grade. The map shows
the voting precincts, hammock,
scrub, pine and swamp lands, the
location of the railroads, the rivers,
and principal lakes of the county,
the postoffices, and what is of most
Importance for the purpose for which
the map was made, the location OF
all the public schools in the county,
the schools for white children being
designed by red circle, those for
colored children by a black circle.
OF the 1875 teachers in the public
schools of Marion county, fifty-one
are in the colored schools.
Prof. Streator says Marion county
has an excellent board of public
instruction and the most efficient
county superintendent in the State,
The public schools in that county are
on the upward grade, and in a few
years will be equal, in all respects, tC
the schools in any State of the
Union.
We commend this map making tC
the boards of public instruction o.
Tennessee. Maps thus made and
placed on exhibition at the National
Teachers Association will speak in
palmer and stronger words thar
mere statistics, the work being done
in the South for the education of the
races.
