Sex in Education.

Sir James Crichton Browne protests
against overwork for women, which, as
he maintained, is much more likely and
more dangerous than overwork for men,
He says the female brain weighs less in
proportion to the weight of the body;
that the specific gravity of the gray
matter of the female brain is less than
that of the male brain; and that the
blood supply, which is directed in the
male brain more toward the organs of
volition and cognition, is directed in
the female brain toward the organs con-
trolling the sensory system.
All this may be true, says the London
Spectator. and it is no doubt true that
young women show the bad results of
hard brain work much more visibly
than young men of the same age, and
that they want more holding back from
overexertion. But it does not follow
that they have not immensely bene-
flied by the high-school work-bene-
fted physically as well as mentally
rather than suffered. The truth is that
for generations back they have been
under-educated, and, though the mod
ern fault is in the opposite direction,
their brains are not less active, indeed
perhaps more active, though possibly
not so energetic and SO capable of sus-
tanned work as those of men. Mr.. Gal
ton showed that even among men the
most active brains are usually not found
in the largest heads.

Our Foreign Trade.

The report of the bureau of statistics
of our foreign trade for ten months
from July 1, 1891, to April so, 1892,
shows that our foreign commerce ex-
banded in nearly every branch. Thus
the exports of wheat and all other
breadstuffs not only greatly exceeded
the corresponding time last year, but
were about s145, 900, 900 larger than the
average for the last five years. The ex-
ports of cotton were about the same as
last year in quantity, but the value was
less on account of the lower prices pre-
vailing, although it is 1900, 900 more
than the average for five years. The
outgo of provisions fell below last year
but the value was nearly $4,000, COO in
excess of FIVE years average. The ex-
ports of all domestic commodities for
the ten months reached the large ag-
gregate of 1884, 900 in round num-
bers, which is nearly 1926. 100000 more
than last year, and exceeds the five
years average about SET, 0OO,OOO. This
is anything but disastrous to this coun-
try, and we could probably repeat the
experience with great equaniinity.

Smoke I'm Cities.

In many manufacturing towns in the
United States where soft coal is largely
used housewives find white linen,
clothing, or table furnishings next to
an impossibility, owing to the SCOT
laden air which soils and nuts every
article hung up to dry or bleach out-of-
doors. The Indian Engineer" sug-
gests remedy for this nuisance in a
universal smoke-duct, or a system OF
smoke-ducts, whereby the particles CT
carbon, which would otherwise be dis
charged from pipes and chimneys to
settle in sort of ebony snow-storm
over the adjacent neighborhood, arc
caught and retained in body of water,
into and through which the smoke-ducts
lead. Each furnace or factory using
soft coal, instead of discharging its
smoke into the free air, would be con-
nected with a large central pipe, run
ming underground, and given power
full draught by means of an exhaust en-
CINE. This pipe would connect with a
central condensing station outside of
the city limits, where the smoke would
be received and passed through body
of water which would retain the solid
particles and many of the gaseous prod
ucts of combustion. The materials so
collected might readily be recovered
from the water and used in many profit
able ways. 1t is supposed that such
products would more than pay the cost
of the duct system Such system
would render clean linen possible in
towns where white tablecloth or an

COLORADO is usually thought of only
as mining state, but with the success
and spread of irrigation she is pushing

A very large crop of the most luscious
watermelons il the country is raised in
Colorado, and the product is of such i'm
portance that watermelon day is a spe-
cial holiday all over the eastern portion
of the state; the governor usually at

has produced two million two hundred

A Magnificent Endowment.

Every one must admire the iberality
and foresight Chicago shows toward the
new university to be esta blished in that
city. 1t was made known two or three
months ago that 81, 100000 was needed
for building purposes and that some
further gifts to the university depended
upon raising this sum. In few brief
weeks 100000 have been contributed,
and the $4,000 lacking has been guar
anteed. A few years ago this would
have been considered princely endow-
ment for college; but in this case it
will be spent wholly in providing build
ings. The endowment of the universe
ty is now about SO, 900, 900, and it is be-
ieved it will be increased soon by the
same generous hand that started the
enterprise. Chicago and the whole
country may well be proud of this addi-
ton to the educational facilities of the
west.

The Tender Passion.

The best authorities say that whoever
desires to experience the passion of
love at its fullest perfection must not
be too young. It is as inconsistent to
seek for the constant and devoted heart
beneath the striped fanne,s of an I'M
dergraduate as to look for it within the
bodice of raw schoolgirl, who may
fall down and worship the first man
that crosses her path. In order to fall
in love vigorously and satisfactorily,
says the Philadelphia Press, a man
must have arrived at the age of reason.
He must have outlived, that is to say,
all that went to make him hare-brained,
impetuous or incapable of gauging the
strength of his emotions, while at the
same time he must not have entered
that barren and desolate region which
is strewn with dead illusions and shat
tered idols. He must have come to
know, of course, that ''all is not gold
that glitters," while retaining his ap-
probation OF the precious metal when
it is pure and unalloyed. The sensa-
ton of heart-hunger which comes to
most men at some period of their lives
must not have been succeeded by that
of either repletion or safety, and he
should still be believer in true and
disinterested affection, while admitting
and deploring the rarity of the phenom-
enOn.

A National Disgrace.

False reports have been published IN
hundreds of newspapers throughout the
land to the effect that the worlds fair
is bankrupt. Such stories, we are well
assured, are the emanations of ignorant
and malicious persons, and that they
should have gained circulation or ere
dence can but be regarded as disgrace
to the American people. These reports
are still spreading and have already
done the fair untold injury. The fact
is, according to reliable authority, that
the exposition has now s., 500, 900 cash
in bank and about million more in
sight. 1t has not had, at any time for
a year and half, less than a million
dollars to its credit in cash, and had as
much as IS, 0O0, 900 at one time. During
the last six months the money has nee
essarily been expended rapidly for con-
astructing the great exposition build
ings. About three-quarters of a mil
lion month has been paid out for this
purpose. A like expenditure will be
necessary for several months to come.
ard more money viii be needed by Oc-
tober. The bulk of the receipts of the
fair from admission, etc., will not begin
to come in, of course, until the fair opens.
It is in order to tide the enterprise over
until that time that the government
has been asked to advance S.
OO0, 200. The most conservative es-
innate of the fairs receipts and
expenditures places the former about
100000 in excess of the latter. There
need not be the slightest fear of the
fair being bankrupt, or even Of its be-
coming hard up" if the government
gives the aid which has been asked and
which is confidently expected. Should
such aid not be given, the public can
rest assured that Chicago itself, though
it has raised almost 81, ZOO, 600 and
ought not to be expected to do more,
will put its hand deeper into its pocket
and will provide enough money to car
~ the fair through to the grand sue
cess which it is determined it shall be
and which it certainly will be.
The fir is not bankrupt and will rot
be bankrupt. The only foundation for
the injurious report referred to is the
fact that the national commission, or
supervising body, has expended all of
the money which the government ap-
propriated for its expenses for the cur
rent year. That body does not provide
the money for constructing the build
ings, gathering the exhibits, or other
wise putting the fair in complete condi-
ton for the inspection of the public.
This is done by the Worlds Column
bian exposition or local Chicago cor
poration. The fair will be dedicated
and opened on time, and all bills will
be paid

Buildlnc Associations.

Much can be said in favor of the coop
erative system of buying and building
homes which is gaining wide popularity
in this country. When properly con-
Quoted there is no more profitable in
vestment than shares in building and
loan association.
The man who is always going to save
money, but never saves any, is well
known to everyone. Generally there
has been no good reason why he should
not have saved money-except that he
has merely been going to save it." Per-
haps he has started savings-bank book,
but has had some need of money, and
has drawn out his account. If this
"going to save" person had invested
even very small monthly share of his
earnings in one of those excellent insti-
tutions, loan and building associations,
or cooperative banks as they are called
in some states, he would have been
compelled to make his regular invest
ment, or undergo small fine each
month, ana would nave nau IN aOQlUlOn
the strong motive of possessing an act
ual share in profitable business.
These associations offer great ad-
vantages to those who wish to own
home or to invest their money. In the
opinion of prominent fnanciers they
enable the man who wishes to build to
borrow money. when, perhaps, but for
such an association he could not borrow
at all, and to an amount nearer to the
value of his property than he can get in
any other way. If he is an investor,
he has an assurance that his money is
earning larger profits than it would
earn in an ordinary savings bank,
owing to economy and the principle of
cooperation in the management of the
association.
1t is said that more than one-sixth Of
the real estate in the city of Philadel-
phia is owned by members of these CO.
operative banks. This fact is a good
demonstration of the value to the peo-
pie of the principle of cooperation in
saving money and buying homes

IT is next to certain that the date of
dedication of the worlds fair buildings
will be changed from October 10 to Oc-
tober 81, the latter being really the
40oth anniversary of the landing of
Columbus, allowance being made for
the correction in the calendar made in
the time of Pope Gregory. The senate
has passed bill making the change
referred to, and it is not doubted that
the house of representatives viii take
like action: The change was requested
by the worlds fair commissioners of
New York, the legislature of which
state had provided for Columbus cele-
bration on October IL. It was thought
that the two celebrations, if held stimuli
taneously, would detract from each
other.

THERE is probably nowhere in the
United States an odder people than the
mountaineers in the remote districts Of
West Virginia. These people welcomed
the civil war less from sympathy with
secession than from feeling that the
disordered state of the country made it
easier to produce moonshine whisky.
The ''stone boat" of the quarry is often
substituted for a wheeled vehicle in
drawing loads down the mountains, and
the people are so unfamiliar with the
amenities of civilized life as to be ig-
norant of many words in common use
among better educated country folks.
''Mr. Rosser's critter comp'ny," was
the mountaineer's phrase for Gen. Ros-
ser's cavalry.
