Necessary Education.

While it would be pleasant to have our
schools cultivate the literary element i'll
English composition, this is not the first
end to be sought. All educated men
cannot hope to be poets Or essayists, but
no one has a right to consider himself
educated till he is able to say in writing
what he would say to his correspondent
aloud if they were standing face to face.
Slovenlness of expression not only is
usually traceable to slovenliness of
thought as d cause, but the habitual neg
lect of expression has also tendency to
increase by reflex action the habit of
loose or muddy thinking. A person who
lacks the power Of clear thought and ex-
preston is not person to whose keeping
it is safe to confde public interests, and
in our country, where every citizen is
liahle to be called upon to bear some OF
the burdens of state. it is especially neees-
ssry that the study of written as well as
spoken English be given the place to
which IFS Importance plainly entities il
in every American school course.--Gooo

sympathetically:
"You have quite a number of little

Mems High Priced shirts.

There was time when all linen shirts
were generally worn by the rich men OF
the town, and there are number OF the
old guard and many of the younger men
of the town that pay so much as twelve
dollars each or $14A per dozen for their
fine white all linen shirts These are
with and without collars and cuffs.
The laundrymen do not get chance at
them. Some old fashioned retainer
handles them tenderly and gets the
homelike, dull finish on the starched
shirt front. -Clothier and Furnisher.
