A Girls Home Education.

There is one custom in one of the best
English schools for girls that it would
be well to adopt in all our private
schools and colleges. 1t is the custom
of constantly having a different girl
student as a guest or companion at
dinner. With the liberal education
gained in adapting herself to SO great
a variety of her own sex, a girl should
by the time she finishes her course be-
come quite an adept at dinner-table
talk, and strangers would have no
terror of her. She would learn how to
find pleasure even in that notion of
hospitality that Lowell said was so
much favored by Bostonians. "a din

saloonkeepers and Bartenders Cannot Hold
the ONCE of Postmaster.
WASHINGTON. May 3-Postmaster-
General Bissell has formulated a policy
Of barring saloonkeepers and barten-
ders from appointment as postmasters.
In accordance with this plan, where
there are several candidates, the fact
that anv of them has business dealings
with saloons will be given weight and
the other candidates will be given
preference in making appointments.
General Bissell said this
afternoon he had reached the conclu-
sion that a saloon is not a good place
to educate a person for the transaction
of postal business, though there is no
iron-clad rule prohibiting the appoint
meut of those who may have been con-
nected with the liquor business Mr..
Bisseu said:
I'VE have appointed men as post
masters who permitted bars in their
hotels, though not interested them
selves, but we prefer not 1t is not a
temperance question nor moral ques-

observation and experience 1

or indirectly interested in the liquor
business. is in a measure untitled by
his occupation. and that his interest in
that business necessarily interferes
