THE NEW PLAN TO PAY THE SCHOOL DEBT.
The proposal to gradually pay off the mort
cages on the public school houses by means Of
extra fines in cases Of the violation of the city
laws seems entirely feasible and needs only an
ordinance of the city council and the good will
OF the mayors to be carried out. During this
decade the fines at the mayors Office have been
as follows
1890 81 sO1 30
1871. NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.. 1928 Is
1892 (Downham) INSTRUMENTATION. 119 90
In all S6.3l4. co. or an average OF 90 ,104 per
annum Now. if the city council will pass an
ordinance directing that all fines in excess Of
$4,000 per annum shall be held by the city
treasurer as sinking fund to redeem the
mortgaged school houses. and future trustees
continue to be gentlemen Of good judgment,
the question of the school debt is settled and
the schools will be free Of debt before 1899.
In the meantime the city treasury will still get
an annual return from fines greater than it has
ever received in any previous year, except 1892.
1t seems well nigh certain that such an ordi-
nance will be adopted by the city council.

POLITE CORRESPONDENCE.
The Correct Thing This Season In Station
cry For Man, Woman and Child.

One Of the small aDnoyances of everyday
life Is the arising OF circumstances requir-
ing immediate action when one does not
feel exactly certain how 10 correctly meet
the question in hand. The fashion of polite
correspondence, for instance, is constantly
changing, and one wants TO know the latest
form. Concerning this, the following is
found N Harper's Bazaar:
For ladies' correspondence the paper fa-
vored by the best usage is the smooth and
vellum finish in white or cream tints. Deli
cate shades OF rose, azure. heliotrope or sill
yer gray are permissible, but any inclina-
tion toward the outre or eccentric is decried
A small and dainty monogram, crest or
coat Of arms is used in plain or embossed
gold, silver, bronze or colors, and also the
initials, ful name and address. Where the
initials are used, the tendency is toward
small and delicate lines, combined in cir
Gle with background. When used alone,
theaddress is generally engraved in the CEN
ter Of the sheet, though It may stand at the
right. IL may also be stamped on the flap
of the envelope. The name of a country
residence should precede the address, as
Nestledown, Lenox, Massachusetts. People
living in town employ the number Of house
and name Of street only, ~ % West Fifty
seventh strce:. To spell the name OF street
Is preferable 20 using the figures
The prevailing fashion in stationery for
gentlemen is the same as for the opposite
sex, except that the designs and lettering
follow a stronger, more severe style
For persons in modest circumstances
plain white stationery of good quality
without ornameutation is advisable, the
address and date inscribed by the writer's
own hand
The prevailing sizes of paper are the let
ter or packet for ladies' familiar CORE
spondence, the octave for polite correspond
sncc, the billet for note or messages, the
miguon for regrets OF acccptances The
note card has been superseded by these two
'ast named sizes. For gyntlemcn's use the
commercial IL adopted for general CORE
spondence, the billet Tor notes.
Fer children's Use paper comes In deli
cate tints alone, no white being introduced
The sheets are small and stamped with
suitable devices. Not only do the little
ones use this in whatever correspondence
they may engage. but all invitations TO
childrcn's pSrties or entertainments are
written thereon.
For mourning purposes dead white,
smooth aud unglazed, IS the chosen mate
rial, with a black border ranging from n
quarter Of an inch in width 10 thread
line, according TO tho uearness of the be-
reavemcnt.
The fashion Of securing the envelope with
sealing wax aud seal engraved with mono
gram or crest is returning into favor.

CURING A COLD.
The Directions of a Physician-They Do
Not Accord With Popular Notions.

Not Accord With Popular Notions.
The following from an eminent physician
found in an exchange may prove valuable,
and it is especially interesting because in
part 1t controverts some generally received
ideas, us, for instance, those of getting in
to good sweat" and covering the feet up
warm" He says:
When the first symptoms manifest them
selves is the time for action, and this should
consist of hot mustard footbath before
going to bed and a hot draft OF milk.
The covering Of the body should be linen
and wool-the former in the way Of the
sheet, aud the latter i'm the blanket. No at
tempt TO get up an active sweating should
be made The footbath aud the warm
drink will give sense of warmth and IA
cilitate the natural excretion Of materials
which should pass away by The skin, and
any effort 20 aggravate this will be not only
superhuous but harmful
The blanket should never be worn next
TO the night robe, and should not be so
thick as to confine the air next to the body.
IL is indeed often advisable to Tighten the
covering of the feet, and to preserve GER
tain amount of weight over the loins, and
to have the shoulders protected from the
external surroundings in general. The last
measure is not TO be underrated. A sensi-
tive lung carries with it susceptibility to
take to itself everything that could possibly
affect il to its dctriment. Lung diseases
belong 20 sensitive persons, and may or
maynot be the sequence OF n cold. The
majority of them, however can be traced
TO imprudence in dress and exposure.

rHE cosrfoN FORM OF human lungs TO
AQUARIUM. breathe. When
we remember that gold fish are the
Easiest cared for of any household pet,
Il seems strange that we do not more
bitten see them, but probably the cost of
Fhe aquarium itself is the true explana-
bon.
The most useful form OF aquariums
kre the glass globes that cost from So to
b each. This shape is, however, easily
broken. Wick, in his Illustrated Month
", advises instead an octagonai or OBJ
long tank, and tells how an ingenious
berson can make one at home when it is
bot practicable to buy this kind, which
fosts from So to $25. The sides of course
Bhould be of glass set in a wooden or tin
framework, and the bottom should be
lined with zinc or tin. The tin should
DO painted to prevent rust, and every
;rack needs to be puttied to prevent the
water from leaking through. If only
bne or two fish are kept, large candy
lar is contenient thing to keep them
n. It is best to allow at least half
kallon of water TO each fish if one would
|void having to change the water each
hay.
Though taking it in small quantities,
bsh require oxygen the same as our
elves. Where several fish are confined
b one aquarium the supply of oxygen in
he water is soon exhausted unless the
npply is kept up or renewed in some
way. This is usually accomplished by
krowing water plants in the same aqua
hum with the fish.
The most useful plants are probably
he water milfoils, of which the well
Known water moss is one species and the
huch advertised water parrot another.
h 2 inch pot will hold soil enough for a
ank full of these plants.
The green slime that is apt to collect
IA the sides of the glass is due to minute
Fater weeds. 1t affords food to the fish
nd helps to supply oxygen to the water,
|ut presents SO unsightly an appearance
hat it should never be allowed to remain
where it is at ell noticeable. Where
here is a proper balance between fish
Ind plant life the water will not need
hanging for long time. but the sedi-
hent and particles of dirt will need to be
aiken out twice week by the use of the
iphon or the water will become clouded
Ind dirty looking.
1t is a simple matter to remove this
ediment. One only needs three or four
eet Of rubber half inch tubing, costing
or 8 cents foot. Drop one end of the
iphon or tubing in the aquarium and
|llow the other end TO reach to bucket
