A WOMAN at La Crosse took a jug OF
hot water to bed with her Ii few nights
ago to keep her feet warm, and it ex-
ploded with great force, knocking the
plaster from the ceiling and scalding
the woman. Natural philosophy has
always taught that there is danger
when very hot and very.cold surfaces
touch. Experimental philosophy has,
doubtless, taught the woman what
many men have learned, that an empty
Jug contains less destruction than q
full one.

The educational bill proposed IN the
legislature and drawn up by ex-State
superintendent O. Z. Wells, aiming at
a reorganization Of the school system
of the state on what is known as the
Township plan, ," is one that should be
thoroughly considered before passed.
The present organization may not be
perfect. but we do not see how the pro-
posed system would be any improve
ment Whether a board of township
officers have the control and manage
ment Of the schools, or whether they
are managed as now, by board of To-
cal directors. matters but little. The
efficiency of any system must rest on
the sentiment in the community. If this
be hostile or Indifferent no progress can
be made towards better and higher
ends. We must teach the community
the necessity and advantages OF educa-
ton and then any system will be found
to work. The feasibility of country
high school is at least doubtful. The
distances which pupils would have to
travel in attending it would prove an
insuperable obstacle and would prove
but slightly easier than to attend some
one of the nearest city or village
schools where it is to be presumed SUI
peri0r advantages in equipments and
system of instruction could be afforded.
The greatest need of Our educational
system today is not change OF system
but Il change in the quality OF teachers
employed. Better teachers will make
better schools and it matters little what
system is in vogue. If the present leg
islature is DESTROYS of making reputa-
ton for solid wisdom, let it grant the
request for better equipment of the
normal schools In these schools are
trained those who will have in charge
the educational training of our state.
1t is proper and just, therefore, with
this responsibility devolving upon them
that they be adequately equipped for
thpir work

NEVER since the time when Sumner,
Schurz and Trumbull made their at
tack upon Gen. Grant in 1872 has the
president of the United States been so
severely criticised as was Mr.. Cleveland
in the senate on Saturday by Senators
Lodge. Teller and WOlcott, and only
one member of his own party came to
his defense. That was Senator Hill, OF
New York, his old-time enemy. Every
other democratic senator in the cham
Der sat silent during the cyclone of in
Vectiye and heard the personal integ
rity as we'll as the official honor of the
president questioned; and even Senator
Hill, while he defended the motives,
the patriotism and the honesty of the
president, refused to commend his acts.
{" have not said one word III defense
Of the contracts, said Mr.. Hill. II
have endeavored to avoid q discussion
of that subject"
Tt was shown in the course of the de-
bate. particularly by Mr.. Lodge and
Mr. Teller, that the price at which the
new bonds were given to the New York
syndicate is 4 per cent. lower than is
now offered for Egyptian securities;
that while the bonds of the United
States are being sold for 104.49, those

ING the same rate Of interest. are quot
ed at Ill. those of British Guiana at
lot, and those of the Fiji islands at
1902. 1t was shown that the municipal
credit Of nearly every city and village
In the United States was better than
that Of the government as rated by the
president in this contract. 1t was also
shown that New York brokers have al
ready offered from 1131 to lis for the
bonds for which the syndicate pay
30440, and that the latter expect to
get l20 or profit of at least l6 per
cont. 1t was asserted that few of the
bonds had been sold at 1l1f to a few
special dealers, but if the public want
cd them they would have to pay any

That was the basis for what Mr.

the language of Mr.. Wolcott and Mr.

A few weeks before Mrs. Fred Temp
lest was married an old and confden-
Itial friend gave her rather singular
piece of advice.
s'My dear Isabel" she said, "as you
truly remark, good health is great
blessing; bat remember this, certain
amount of illness is a necessity In every
Elousehold-but for this how would SO
enany doctors get livingP-and being
intensely interested in your future hap
piness, Istrongly advise that you should
tbe occasionally Ill. yourself For the
first two years Of my married life my
health was perfect, and what was the
lconsequence2 My husband became
martyr to imaginary complaints of all
sorts; and from morning till night my
thoughts were occupied with his latest
symptoms and fears for the result At
length, however, very fortunately as IL
surned out, was attacked with bron-
chitis in a rather severe form, and from
that moment TO this dear Charles has
scarcely known days illness. When
ever he begins to feel anything peculiar
coming on, my cough gets troublesome,
and the effect upon him is immediate.
Take my word for it, dear child, 1t does
not do for wife to be too strong and
vigorous; man never thoroughly ap-
preciates blessing unless he thinks
khere is some chance that 1t may be
haken from him"
At the time Isabel failed 10 see the
wisdom of her friends remarks, but
she had not been married long before
she fancied she recognized the truth of
what had been said. She was always
well and ready for long walks, lawn
tennis, boating, or whatever form OF
violent exercise her husband felt dis
posed for, and she imagined it was in
consequence of this that after they had
been welded a year there appeared to
lbe decided diminution in his care OF

whether she would not like to rest

..Oh, come now, really"
''Oh yes, know, / know al about II,

There was silence for minute, and
then Or. Furness, after regarding the
young mans worried face attentively,
said softly:
LET me see your wife. Mr.. Tempest.
I fancy L could cure her. I believe I
understand her case thoroughly. Let

lgest that Mrs. Tempest should consult

"And you'll be gentle with her, won't
you?n Fred continued, earnestly.
'Steadman Ia dear old boy, but am
sure he makes mistake in Isabels
case; she is SO very sensitive"
"oh, I'll be very gentle; you may do
pend upon that"
When the cousins were alone again
the doctor fixed his eyes thoughtfully
upon Mrs. Carson's pleasant smiling
face.
"That seems thoroughly good fell

other lady is all nonsense, suppose2"
Perfect nonsense" Mrs Carson re-
torted, warmly. ''Freds devoted to

sweet, too"
DR.. Furness relapsed into silence once
more, but presently he continued with
rather sly smile:

Isabel has not seen DR.. Furness since

clares proudly that her relative cured
her friend, and one thing is quite Ger

never again suffered anothsr of her
