An Innovation In Schools.


twenty years ago, perhaps some
boys and girls Of these days, Wi
remember one COuplct of a familiar
little jingle that ran as follows:
Lazy Ned, as the sun was shining,
Slowly wended his way TO school.
The ines went on 70 say thai
Ned was always a matter of hal
an hour to a day behind time, an
fina ly ended his days to the ute
dissatisfaction of himself and his
friends. HIS hour of arriving E
the schOolhouse was so uncerta,
that the teacher ceased to use til
rod on him, finding that the vast
Of phys cal strength was not coun-
terbalanced by unusual activity
upon the part of Ned.
Nowadays, in one part of Ohio,
Lazy Ned's career as horrible ex-
ample IS about played out. The
adoption of a new plan for manag-
ing the country schools is respon
sible for this. The old method of
country school houses at every
important cross roads is being sup
plcmented by better and more COM
modiouS buildings at some central
point, and the theory of centraliza-
ton in educational methods has
given the cranks' clubs fresh
themes for discussion. The chill
dren WHO reside within perhaps a
radius of five miles are brought to
these larger and better school
houses each morning of the year
in large wagons, called barges If
Lazy Ned isn't out of bed on time
and hasn't filled his schoolboy
stomach with plentiful supply of
breakfast, he simply won't wend
his way to school, but will remain
behind and work off a few knots
on the family woodpile.
The people of Kingsville, Ashta-
bula county, first tried this plan.
They had heard of something SINH
lar in Massachusetts, and, with
some notifications necessary for
the locality, inaugurated reform
in country school methods in Ohio
which seems bound to prevail
throughout the state and spread
throughout the West.
In the neighborhood of Kings
vile were formerly as large num-
Der of small schools as generally
will be found in any well-populated
country section. 1t took great
many teachers to supply these
schools; the schools could not be
properly graded; rotations were
constantly going on; younger and
older pupils were mixed promiscu-
ously together, and not doing as
we'll as they might have done had
they been separated; in addition to
all the rest, the cost Of maintaining
such schools was heavy.
The intelligent farmers of that
section thought everything over,
and decided to apply to the legis-
lature for relief. Five outlying
school districts were abandoned. 1t
was agreed to bring the pupils to
the schools at the center of the
town. Covered wagons, capable
of being completely sheltered on
inclement days, were provided,
and arrangements were made with
certain farmers to bring the chill
dren to school each morning. The
wagons carried from eighteen TO
twenty persons. In two districts
it was necessary to bring the pupils
four and half miles, and in the
other three districts the longest
trip was three and a half miles.
The conveyance both WAYS COST

The projectors say there has
Zen less sickness among the Chi
rem. They are picked up at
me, carried in a warm wagon,
veil prots cted with straw and
bes, and set down at the school

clothes When school is over tn y

the weather.
So successful has the Kingsville
Experiment. been that the residents
the adjoining counties have re-
solved to do likewise, and 1t is
probable that the whole state of
Ohio will follow suit in the near
future.

Inflated Prices for Cur Dogs.

If this government should open it's
mints to coinage of the worlds silver
at sixteen to one, we would go at once
to silver monometallism- This is the
voice of all history emphasized by the
present status of every free coinage
country on the earth. We can no more
have bimetallism in actual use and I'M
limited silver coinage than we can
have square, round object or dry,
wet weather. Wherein would the peo-
pie be benefited if they got double
prices in half value money? If farmers
products brought double prices, so
would the manufacturers' The bene-
fits and advantages would be equal,
except that buyers would always de-
duct enough to safely cover the fiuctu-
atoms of silver, and this amount would
be dead loss to producers and pre-
MUM to spectators. know a boy
who sold cur dog for 500, but he took
pay in pups at $40 apiece, SO he was
not materially benefited by the inflated
prices.-From Speech of Judge George

Hambleton & Co., of Baltimore, in
their weekly letter of May 80. offer
the following explanation of why cap
ital is being withdrawn from business
enterprises:
"Let us put ourselves in the place OF
our European creditors and consider If
we would not act as they have acted.
Would we buy British securities or in
vest in British industries and enter
prises if we thought there was danger
of our being paid in currency worth
only half as much as the money which
we loaned? Suppose our financial jour-
nails and newspapers generally should
daily warn us against investing our
money in England and intimate that
we run great risk of getting back
only so cents for every dollar already
so invested, would we not only not buy
British securities, but would we not.
before the threatened disaster came,
draw home every dollar we could OBJ
tain? This is what Europe has been
doing in regard to the United States
for five years past.
"Evcr since the passage of the Sher-
man silver act of 1890 Europe has fore
seen the danger, sold our securities and
withdrawn capital from this country.
This has resulted in our paying of
hundreds of millions of dollars Of what
we owed Europe, and we are at least
to this extent the gamer But we can
not afford to be independent Of the
European markets and European cap
ital, and we cannot enjoy full pros
perity until we satisfy other countries
what we are fully convinced of-that
free silver coinage is dead issue, and
that every dollar of our currency and
every other obligation will be main
tanned on parity with gold"

GOING BACK.

Free suverites Resort to Out-of-Dato
Methods.
The silverites who want the American
people to give up the stable money
standard under which they have pros
pered, in order to go back to the silver
dollars of their ancestors, are the kind
of men who are afraid of everything
that is new. They are like the boy who
went to the mill with big bag across
his horses back. In one end of the bag
was two bushels of corn and in the
other end big stone. When the miller
asked the boy why he did not divide the
corn and put half of it on each side OF
the horse the bright youth replied:
Father and grandfather allus took
their corn to mill this-a-way. Iain't no
better than them. What was good
enough for grandfather is good enough
for me-"
The idea that because the men who
lived in this country 100 years ago
adopted free coinage law we should
be satisfied with the same system, is not
suited to progressive, go-ahead Ameri-
cans. The latter want the very best of
everything and just as soon as better
way of doing things is discovered the
old way is dropped and the new taken
up. The question as to what was the
best money system 100 years ago has
nothing on earth to do with the practi-
cal affairs of to-day. To talk OF going
back to free silver merely because twas
an old system is on level with trying
to establish monarchy in this country
because we were once ruled by the Brit
ish kings. When the people got tired OF
kings they kicked them out and estab-
lished the republic. When they got tired
of trying to use the double standard
they made gold the unit of value, and
they intend to keep it. Out of date sys-
TENS don't count for much with live
Americans.

except for cigars. On Saturday he
stepped into a confectionery establish
ment with friend and had a lunch.
When his wife added rp the daily
sums, she found, to her own surprise
even. that she had received from her
husband two dollars and sixty-two
cents. He would have been astonished
to hear it, but she thought it not best
10 say anything about it. He would
Lave alleged that it was a special case,
as they did not go to the theater every
week. This was true, but then some
thing else was sure to come of equiva-
lent cost, such as ride or concert.
So time slipped away. The necessity,
according to the compact, of giving his
wife as much as he spent for incidental
expenses, no doubt contributed to
check him somewhat, so that probably
he did not spend more than two-thirds
as much in this way as he had done be-
fore the agreement. Still he kept up
to the average of the first week.
The year had glided by. John Stet-
son came into the room with preoc-
cupied air.
'What are you thinking about?"
asked his wife.
"About the half-acre lot adjoining
the one Holmes bought last year."
"Did you want to buy it?"
"Yes, 1 should like to; but of course
1 can't"
"How much do they ask for il? ~
Holmes paid a hundred dollars for
his. This is, OF some accounts, prefer
able, and they hold it at one hundred
and twenty-five dollars"
Perhaps you could raise the money,
john said his wife, quietly.
by borrowing? I shouldn't want
TO do that"
"You remember our fund.-"
"Pshaw! That may possibly amount
to thirty or forty dollars"
Suppose we count it, &c the year is
up to day."
"V.ry WELL
The box was opened, end husband
and wife commenced counting. They
soon reached and passed forty dollars.
"Bless my SOUL" said John Stetson,
81 had no idea there was so much"
| What was his establishment when the
total proved to be one hundred and
twenty-nine dollars and forty cents!
you see you can buy the lot"
But haven't you swelled the amount
from your own allowance?" he asked
somewhat bewildered.
Not by cent; ard don't you see
John, that if you had refrained from
even one-half of the expenses we spoke
of, we might have had IN the neigh
oorhood of two hundred dollars?"
John Stetson did see and he was de
tCrmined that the lesson should be &
serviceable one. The ha!f-acre lot wa.
bought, and now, 1T the end of five
years, il is worth double what he paiC
for Il. He has also laid aside two hun
bred dollars year during this period
and all by small sayings. - Woman
