WHITE MEMS CLOTHES"


WHITE MEMS CLOTHES"
An indignant barbarian writes to the New
York Sun:
You cite this morning, as an evidence oi
progress that the Zulus have been induced
by missionaries to wear white mems clothes
"Iu the name of the late lamented G. d.
Happy, tailor, of this city, why is this to be
called progress?
why should not an intelligent heather slay
a meddlesome missionary who seeks to fetter
his free limbs with the fantastic and abomina-
BILE combination of garments which custom
obliges the white man to wear? And having
slain him, why should not the Zulu eat meat?
:" Is the liberty taken by the eannibal with
the senseless remains of his enemy in any way
comparable with the impertinence of the holy
man who seeks to interfere with his habits
in the sacred name of One who never wore
white mems clothes'?"
Life: Mrs. Fairview-Doctor. do you think
my husband fully realizes his condition?
The Doctor do. He asked me to-day If /
was married man.
Everybody seems to have caught it last
month. Paris reports the hottest September
for $50 years, which takes Us back to about the
time thermometers came into use and weather
observations were first accurately noted.
Life: Don't you think you would better
make him wait year?"
"Dear me- mol Why, at the end of the year
might not want to marry him."

A SWISS EXAMPLE.

have a small country with generally
poor soil. Its whole area is only 1876
square miles, or less than half that Of
Indiana, and it probably has not as
much really good farming land as in a
single County in the Wabash Valley.
But it supports 100000 people in in
dependence and comfort-1S2 to the
square mile.
This little Nation has maintained its
independence against its colossal neigh
bors-Germany, France, Austria, and
Italy-for 500 years, and is the freest and
most enlightened country in Europe.
In no country is the spirit of patriotism
and nationality SO vigorous, and yet it
is made up of the most discordant ele-
ments. Part of the people are German,
part French and part Italian, and these
each speak and write their own language.
Fifty-nine per cent. of the people are
incorporating Protestants, and 40 per
cent. answering Catholics, and there Is
no end of friction on religious lines. Yet,
Germans, French and Italians, Catholics,
Lutherans and Presbyterians are all IN
tense Swiss, exceedingly proud of their
country and jealous of her fair fame.
They feel that because they are Swiss
more is expected of them than of other
less favored people.
The development of this spirit of patri-
otism is regarded by everyone as person
al duty. Compulsory education and serv-
ice in the militia are regarded as the
most effective agencies to this end. Since
1874 it has been the duty of the author
tiles to provide school facilities, and see
that the children are kept in school.
This is so rigidly enforced in the Pro-
testant Cantons that the school attend
ance is one to every five of the popula-
ton. In the Cartons which are half
Protestant and half Catholic there is
not so much rigidity, and the proportion
of school children is one to seven of the
population, while in the wholly Catholic
Cantons there is still greater laxity, and
but one of every nine of the population
goes to school. Recently the people of
the Canton of Aargau passed, by an
overwhelming majority, a still more dras
tic educational law. In addition to the
usual primary education, it compels every
youth to continue his or her education
until the age of 10. After graduating
from the lower schools he or she must
give four hours every week, between
Nov. / and March 81, to school, in a
course of study required by the Board
of Education. AT present this course
is as follows:
i. Reading and subsequent oral repe-
tition of the lesson;
2. Essay writing;
3. Practical arithmetic;
4. Swiss history and geography;
5.'Practical instruction in the Consti.
tuition of the Swiss Republic, and the
duties and rights of citizens.
Every able-bodied young man is liable
to military service, and if he does not
enrol himself and attend the drills he
must pay tax. In the first year he is
given from AZ TO 80 days of training,
according to his intelligence, and every
second year thereafter IS days, with
annual rifle practice. The drills are
great schools Of citizenship, as they bring
all classes, and the young men Of the
different localities into intimate acquaint-
ance with one another.
