that the amount thus saved would, in

this reason has been of great value in

past people affected with these troubles

been benefited by it's use. This water
is as clear as crystal and no matter
how long it may be kept no sediment

so enthusiastic III its praise that Mr.
Norcross, concluded to have Prof F. c.

assayer of Maine, make a careful guam
titative analysis of it, and also subject
it to a careful microscopic examination.
This was done and the water found to

Meetings Of Superintendent o
Schools to Improve Education.
Black Grouse Evidently Mating-0iher News
From the Capitol.

The meeting of the superintendent
of the city schools of Maine. some Is in
number which is to be held May 10, in
the department of Superintendent w.
w. Stetson, promises to be an import
ant one in educational lines; and If the
opinions so far expressed are any cri-
terion of the favor with which the pro-
posed plan for more or less definite
classification of scholars in the schools,
is to be received, it is safe to say that
the meeting will be unanimous one,
in it's favor.
Mir. Stetson proposes to have the
scholars of the schools in such n posi-
ton that they may have some approx
mate standing with the scholars Of
other schools who have attained the
same advancement. He believes that
minimum tests should be submitted
which should make certain uniform
distinctions to enable the teachers of a
school to place scholars coming from
another school.
A. u. Russell, whose opinion or edu-
cational matters is highly respected.
his life having largely been given to
education. and who now is member
Of Augustus experimenting school
committee, is wholly III favor of some
such classification as the superinten-
dent proposes. When asked to express
by Journal representative, he replied:
Il certainly am in favor of it. 1t is ex-
actly what is needed, to get at some
means of systematic comparison of the
work of scholars; and even anapproach
in this direction would be heartily well
coined, | think. by instructors gener-
ally. The absence of any system what
ever is to be deplored, and | am fully
convinced that the move is one that
will be of inestimable benefit to the
schools throughout the State"
Rev. j. NJ. Wyman. also of Augustus
school committee, speaks in the high
est terms of the move
AT the meeting of superintendent on
the 18th, the question as to what sub
jects should be included in each of the
several grades will be discussed and
the best order in which they should be
taken.
Arrangements have been made by
Mr. Stetson to meet school superinten-
dents as follows: At Auburn May 5:
Saco. May II. There will also be meet
ings held, the dates for which will be
later announced, at Waldoboro Bel
fast, Caribou, Shermans Mills. Column
bia Falls, Machias and Calais. These
meetings are for talking over the best
means for improving the schools and
