even greater tendency to become

amateur or professional, than the ma

day, at the beginning of seance, sho
was thrown into trance which lasted
for four hours, at the end of which
time she was awakened more dead than

headache, her legs refused to carry her,
every one of her limbs felt sore, and
she had to be carried home and put to
bed. But tho hypnotizera still refused
to relinquish their favorite amuse 3,

more under the spell, of course with
equally distressing results. Then there
was an outcry and scandal, and the

in the opening of tho new buildings

Women Teachers Thus college ia to
be regarded as training rather than a
teaching institution, and it is the out
come of the gradual growth and de-
vclopment of education during the last
10 or 90 years. Before that period
secondary education as science, or
even as an art, was almost unknown.
1t was generally imagined that il a
person knew any subject whatever, he
or she was perfectly competent to teach
it, a fallacy which has not altogether
gone ont Of existence even at the pres
ent tina.
II was common practice for educated
women and even many nf those who
were not educated on the failure of
other means of life, TO open a ladies'
school. The mode of teaching con-
sisted in the committing TO memory
passages from books and the answers

of subjects. Fortunately, this system
is ono of the past. Training colleges
for the supply of teachers for the poor

There is not single European
country in normal financial condi-
tion, that attaches the slightest i'm
portance TO bimetaliam. From time
TO time some minister utters in Parlia-
ment few oquivocal words on the sub
ject, seeking 10 avoid stripping the
bimetallists absolutely of all hope.
But America must not be duped by
these ambiguous expressions. At bot
tom, not country, not government
of Europe has the least wish to make
the least change in the established
monetary system, that is, in the pro.
eminence Of gold and the secondary
and circumscribcd function of silver
II from time 20 time the bimetallsts
obtain some vague ministerial promises
study the monetary problem, it is due
to the habit, common 10 all European
statesmen, Of avoiding, offending or
definitely estranging any group of
voters, even ono Of slight Importance.
