A The reduction in the price of the
 NATION Forum (from five dollars year to
 OF three dollars; from 50 cents to 25 READERS. cents). which took place with the December number, instantly caused so great an increase in the demand that within tort night filth edition was called for. The pub fishers of the Forum made a correct analysis when they assumed that the class of readers of the most instructive literature Is many times larger than the class of persons who can afford to pay the prohibitory price of 30 cents a copy or five dollars year. But the rapidity of the increase has outrun all expectations; and the Forum now has the largest circulation ever reached by q periodical Of it's class. This in stantaneous success proves that there is no other country in the world that has so large Q class of readers of serious literature and stu dents of important subjects, as the United States.

DOWN laudable work is being under
 WITH taken by member of the New
 THE York board of education in an
 VILE endeavor to suppress the ciga- CIGARETTE rette-smoking nuisance among the boys. Pledges have been circulated among the boys binding them not to smoke cigarettes until they are 2l years old. well known New York teacher of experience has observed that with the incorrigible cigarette smoker, his attention becomes impaired and his intellect so weakened that he cannot be made to study wand he cannot make headway, even when he likes. Morally, he deteriorates into liar who denies that he smokes, and con- tesses only when he is found out. Ifmoney is kept from him to prevent his buying ciga- rettes, he will steal it. He plays truant, gives lying excuses to his parents and teachers, forms the lowest associations, and sinks rapid
 ly and helplessly into the condition of a wreck" This movement among the school boys is one we would like to see extend to ev- cry city and country hamlet in this country

LOOKING AFTER THE SCHOOL CHILDREN.
 Hon J. K. Judson, of the state board of education, with MT Osborne, secretary of the board of school visitors, has visited all the schools in the town. The special object desired, is to find what children of school age, fail to at tend regularly and the cause. It is inn perative, unless some reasonable excuse can be given, that all children in this state shall attend school, and parents or guardians are liable to prose cutiOn for neglect. MT. Judson, found but few in the town needing his attention at this time, the school registers giving good re- cords, and we quote to the credit of our teachers. "The schools in Monroe, are much better than the average of country schools in this state," said MT Judson, One old deacon of 65, in the north part of the state, quite wealthy, and rather mean and close, took two children from an orphans home, and upon being requested to send themto school. close by, "said they were poor and ought to learn to work and not learn books and he would not send them to school" He did send them and sang sorrOwful tune as he paid over $60 for Christian(?) con- duct
