TALK ON GEOGRAPHY.

Prof. Jacques w. Redway, of New
York. author of Buffers series of geo.
graphies, addressed the teachers after
Superintendent Taylor. His topic was
Some Errors Of Fact in Geography
Teaching" Geography is study he
has thoroughly mastered and his ad-
dress was interesting and instructive.
He believes in dividing the world into
but three continents when teaching
geography. The Eastern or Asian, the
Western or North American, and the
Australian. He also unreservedly ad-
vocated the use Of a globe instead of
flat map in teaching geography. ''lf
you want to teach the children that
the earth is flat" he said, teach them
by means Of Il fiat map. They always
go together. Begin by teaching the
highlands and lOwlands. but do not
confound the mountains with the high
lands, for they are only incidents. Least
of all, not first of all, take up the noun
tain ranges for consideration" Prof.
Redway gave a very interesting de-
scription of VOLCANOES and the cause of
the peculiar cone like formations and
then told of the rain, winds and the
reason why in the east we have ir-
regular rain storms while in the west
there is a regular rainy season. He
recommended that his hearers give in
structiOns with reference to Turkey in
Europe and Turkey in Asia at the same
time and not separate them because
they happen to be in different geOgra-
phical divisions.
Prof. Cogswell led the teachers in
singing THE Lord is Marching On" and
the session closed with talk on Child
Study" by DR.. Mara l.. Pratt. an author
of wide reputation. DR.. Pratts talk
was along physiological lines and was
in the way of an introduction to others
that will follow during the course Of
the institute.

BECAUSE:
IS THE

First-The fiItering medium is Tri-
poll Stone which does not receive into
its pores the filth and germs it extracts
and which is always the same, no
matter how long in use.
Second-The action OF the filter
downward, from an upper TO lower
jar. passes the water, drop by drop,
through the air, restoring the oxygen
thereby which the water may have lost
from stagnation. confinement, or other
wise, and imparting TO it freshness of
taste. sparkle and vitality.
Third-Its action is as rapid as is
consistent with efficacy. A too rapid
fltering does not wholly remove i'm
purities.
Fourth-Eyery part is accessible for
cleaning, and without laborious effort.
Thorough cleanliness is the chief reQu-
isite of any good filter.
Fifth-The jars being made either Of
stoneware or porcelain insureS water
being kept pure and uncontaminated
after being filtered.
Sixth-Stoneware for those who de-
sire an efficient yet Iow-priced filter,
and the finest porcelain, decorated TO
suit, enables the SUCCESS TO accom-
modate itself TO the wants OF all in
the matter of price.
Seventh-Its construction admits
also of its capacity being adapted TO
suit the wants of all, from the indi-
vidual tourist to the largest hotel or
laundry.
Since introducing the Success Fill
ter, we have sold a large number of
them, and they give perfect satisfac-
