The bureau OF education at Washing
ton has done good piece of work in
the monograph which has just been
sent out from the government printing
Office on Shorthand Instruction and
Practice" by Mr. Julius Ensign Rock
well. In 1884 he published a circular
of information on the teaching, prac-
tlce and literature of shorthand. TWEEN
ty thousand copies were distributed
and another edition of equal size has
been exhausted. The present work fur
nishes not only an account of short
hand in foreign countries and in the
United States, but nearly the full sta
tistics of instruction from 1889 up to
the summer of 1891 in this country,
with an account of the exten, to which
stenographers have been EN- ployed in
courts, in legal decisions and in other
public services, There are thousands
of shorthand societies in Germany,
France and England and in this coun-
try, whose work is to disseminate a
knowledge of the art and the intro.
duction of shorthand into the pub
lie schools is to be one of the next
steps in secondary education. The
| typewriter is next to shorthand as q
labor-saving instrument and the short
| hand systems and the principal type
writing machines have already
wrought revolution not only in the
courts but in business offices, in the
writing done for newspapers and in
every department of life where writing
is indispensable. Until speed can be
reached on the typewriter equal to
that which can be obtained by expert
stenographers stenography will take
the lead as system by which the
spoken word can be taken down ex-
actly as it is uttered and made to serve
the purpose for which it is designed.
1t is such an aid in all sorts of bust
ness transactions that we could no
more go back to the old habits than we
could go back to the stage coaches
which fifty years ago conveyed our
grandfathers across the country. In
this country the number of persons re-
ceiving instruction in shorthand from
July 1, 1889, to June 80, 1890,
was 57,375, and of this mum
Der 23,425 were males and 26,O05
females. All these were taught in
schools and classes and out of the
whole number 1928 were instructed by
mail. In 800 schools and classes in
which shorthand was introduced dur
ing the scholastic year ending June 30
1891, the number of persons laugh
orally was 4, $50, which, with those in
structed by mail, made grand total O
Abs Of those taught orally 2,47-
were males and 1858 were females
This is as near a correct statement o
statistics as Mr.. Rockwell has beer
able to arrive at and it shows the vas
extent and use of shorthand instruc
ton in this country in all the depart
ments of life. Stenography has COM
to stay, and type-writing has come t.
stay with it, and the two combined
with the telegraph and telephone
have been greatly instrumental in &C
celebrating the progress of ideas ant
facilitating the methods of business
and the production of literature. =

Drops of wisdom now and then

but of all the gems of thought ever in
the quarry wrought, shaped with care

all would be never to assume the risk
of turning cattle upon second growth
sorghum" He is unable to explain
why it is so, but there are perhaps
many of our farmers who have had
their sorghum worked up and prob
ably many have this second growth
ON their places. We make mention of
it so that the uniformed may take
warning and not suffer loss from
