THE SCHOOl [ Avn.

The new school law was printed in
full in the law supplement sent out with
this paper few weeks since, so that all
Vermont readers have had a chance to
see what it is. AS to its goodness or
badness there is difference of opinion,
but it is not this phase of the thing to
which we wish to call attention.
The law provides that at the coming
March meeting each town shall elect
three or six school directors, one-third of
whom are to serve for one year, one-third
for two years and one-third for three
years. These directors are to have the
management of all the schools in the
town. They are given considerable
power, and upon their fitness or unfitness
will depend verv largely the quality of
the schools. Their choice, then, should be
made with care. There ought to be
some consideration of the matter before
town meeting, too, rather than to leave
the selection to luck and chance there.

THE GOLD Cukg AGAIN.

Henry Wood, a writer in the last issue
of "The Arena, takes new view of,the
Kelley system of curing drunkenness.
In the discussion he quotes the opinions
of prominent medical men all over the
world to the effect that no drug known
to the faculty will cure either the al
cohol, or chloral habit or any other kind
of a drug-talling habit or appetite.
On the other hand, he calls to mind
the great number of cures that are known
to have been the result of the Kelley
treatment. sit is asseI ted" he says.
'for the gold cure that no less than
AS evidence of its merits. From the best
obtainable statistics only five per cent of
those treated by the Kelley method re-
lapse. The Chicago Bichloride of Gold
club now numbers 400. members. OF
these only six are said to have fallen in
to their former habits. The evidence
seems to show, in face of the positive
statements of the doctors that it cannot
be done, that tll5gold cure certainly does
reform large number of the patients
that take it,.
Answering the question, how this hap
pens, the writer says he thinks it is a
case of "a sort of mind cure by perhaps
unconscious cerebratiOn. A great num-
Der of men are brought together bent on
the same idea-getting rid of the alcohol
habit. Contrary to the custom of lnebri-
ate asylums, they are put under no re-
straint, but allowed to come and 90 at
will. The surroundings are agreeable
4 powerful impression is made on the
mind. The French professors of the
school of Nancy cure drunkenness by
hypnotism as effeclually as DR.. Kelley Is
believed by many to cure it by his drug
The bichloride of gold is the fetch, so to
speak, to which the attention of the pa
tient is attracted while the beneficent un-
conscious psychological process goes on
in his mind. The hypodermic injection
of the drug takes the place of the bright
disk on which the hypnotic subject is
told to fix his attention.

The Burlington Clipper has gone into

now putting a stop to 1t as rapidly as
possible st. Johnsbury Caledoian.

could prove it does not yet materiaize

No more accurate statement or the

Philips Brooks his hold upon people OF

than that of Archdeacon Farrar, who
SAYS: His teaching was profoundly and

shibboleths and half truths of party the

taught it, before it was corrupted by a
thousand alien influences of sacerdotal-
