to devise a better course for himself
than any pre-arranged course can ever
be. The program of the University is
like the bill of fare of q great hotel.
The best instruction in every line
should be provided; 10 student can go
over the the whole list, and each must
choose for himself. There is no abb
solutely best study or series of study;
each one must ask, "what is best for
meY"
And the choice of teachers is more
important than the choice Of studies.
Work under the best teacher. A great
teacher meyer fails to leave q great
mark on every young man or young
woman with whom he comes in con-
tact. Boys and girls should therefore
not receive the same education. Even
in the same schools their training
should differ most widely. Each one
as an individual should receive what
Is best for him; and in any college
worth the name, this best can be found
and the student will be left to find 1t.
Shall boys and girls receive an
equivalent t~rainingp In other words,
shall the work of girls be as severe and
serious as that Of boys should bep By
all means, yes. There are mental and
physical differences, but these are not
differences of superiority or inferiority.
The value Of t~horoughness for girls is
as great as for boys. No sound system
OF education of wome can be based
on the assumption Of the irferiority
and natural levity of girls.
Shall boys and girls go to the same
SCHOOL, This is, in a degree, o matter
of taste. For my own children, yes.
If a school is good for the one, 1t ia
good for the other. l am a thorough
believer In the good effects of co.edu.
cation in higher education. Boys be-
have better, think better, and have
more rational views of life, If they are
not isolated from women. Girls are
more serious and earnest, and do stron-
ger work and of less hysterical quality,
when they work in the same class with
boys.
Co-education has come TO stay. II
has no evil side, and leads TO no bad
results. In the institutions devoted to
the higher education of men and wo-
men there is nc intelligent opposition

obtained for half a dozen needles or q

In other parts a goat OF a couple Of
buckskins will buy a girl. Passing to
Asia, we find her price is sometimes
five to fifty rubles, or at others a cart
load of wood or hay. A princess may
be purchased for 5000 rubles.
In Tartary a woman can be obtained
for a few pounds of butter, or where a
rich man gives twenty small oxen a
poor man may succeed with a pig. In
FIJI her equivalent is a whales tooth

Teachers More Important Than Studies.

The question as ] understand it, 10
threefold: Shall our boys and girls re-
ceive exactly the same trainingg If
not, shall they receive IN equivalent
training2 In either case, shall they be
taught in the same schools or collegesp
To the first question, as thus stated,
I should answer, No. To bring about
the best results, no two boys or girls
should receive exactly the same train
ing; and the same studies and drill of
girls as a class should diverge more or
less from that given to the average
boy. The essential quality Of the train
ing Of the future will be individuality.
In the ideal school, high or low, the
work should'be adapted directly to the
needs of the individual pupil. The
weakness Of the public schools of to.
day is in large degree that the pu.
pills are simply parts of a system. There
is a course to 60 through, its details
cut and dried long before the pupils
were born. Over this course they must
travel, regardless of their individual
powers or needs. 1t Is no wonder that
the great majority, even the bright
ones, drop out by the way. In the
public Grammar Schools and High
Schools the force of tradition and the
need Of economy still keep the students,
all, boys and girls, whatever their needs
and aspirations, in nearly the same
beaten track. The private preparatory
schools keep to the line Of tradition
even more closely than the public
schools, and for nearly the same rea-
son In the latter part of the High
School course, some for play or
choice is allowed. The value Of indi-
vidual training Is, however, scarcely
yet appreciated, and the student must
still follow one OF two or three beaten
tracks, or leave the course. The intro
duction Of manual training and Of lab
oratory work In the science is doing q
q good deal to meet individual needs;
but q great deal more must be done be-
fore our high Schools really ''prepare

SILVER GAMING F6fEHDS.

During the debate in the Senate on
the bond question, Senator German
took occasion to say, in reference to
the claim OF Senator Teller that the
repeal Of the Sherman law was respon-
sible for existing financial conditions,
that he believed with the Senator from
Colorado that there is much in the
statement that the legislation ON silver
is largely responsible for the existing
situation.
There are indications that change
OF sentiment is taking place on the
question Of silver as money, not alone
in the United States, but in the old
world as we'll, which may lead TO its
restoration as medium Of internati onal
exchange, on fixed parity with gold.
The repeal Of the Sherman silver-pur-
chase law has signally failed to relieve
the tension upon the United States
treasury, or to restore confidence in
business circles, and there are many
who, like Senator German, have come
to realize that the purchase and coin.
age OF silver by the Government had
no bearing upon the existing financial
conditions. On the contrary, the con.
tention OF the advocates OF bimetalIsm
stands unrefuted, namely, that the
prostration Of the silver industry in the
United States which formerly was a
source OF great national wealth, bene-
fitting the people OF all sections OF the
country, that this subversioH, caused
by hostile legislation, is largely respon.
sible for existing financial conditions and
depression Of trade.
The failure Of the Indlsn experime ut
furnished very strong argument
against sbolishing silver AS standard
money, in countries where it has been
in general circulation. Notwiihsrand-
ing the adoption OF the gold standard,
the demand and absorption OF silver in
India have continued to degree that
was not at all anticipated The fixing
OF a minimum price Of l6 pence, and
