The September number OF the Cosmo-
politan Magazine contains an article on
college education hat is OF especial in
terest. @ only en- account Of its con-
cents. but because :ts writer is President
Andrews Of Brown University, who hasso
recently been brought before the pub
lie by reason OF the action OF the board
CT trustees OF Brown University. More
over. as Mr.. Andrews has been elec:ed
president OF the new Cosmopolitan Uni
v~ersity il is natural to suppose that this
article in a certain sense forecasts the
ideals Of this projected scheme.
President Andrews firsJ finds occasion
lto c~riticise the present educational system
because Of its eXclusiveness. Many who
would are unable TO obtain an education.
college education, we mean. The Chau-
tauqua movement and university extern
sion nave arisen in attempt to overcome
this deficiency. Thee have already JUS
tiied their existence. but at the most
their benefits are local. Perhaps it is to
The Cosmopolitan University that we are
10 look for the nationalizing OF the idea.
Turning to college education as it is in
operation today, President Andrews
finds much that is no. as 1t should be.
He lays particular stress on that imper-
lection OF modern education that is so
obvious to every thinker, namely, that
50 fau, poccnh1a ISnUlfSb SphnlarS ara
graduated from the colleges and uni
versities. And this deficiency, President
andrews contends. nus not be charged
wholly to the English department, but
is the result of detective mental training
OF the college course as a whole.
President Andrews feel; there is lack
OF enthusiasm on the part Of the teach
er. This accounts for much OF poor e
tai results.
One of President Andrews strongest
%emphases falls on the duty of education
to develop the moral na.ure and charac-
ter. To this purpose more time must be
given to the formal study OF ethics and
to a practical translation Of this study
inao terms Of life. AS contributing to
character-building. 1t is intended that,
above all. stress nus be laid on the sys-
tenn and method and that t~horoughness
must be felt as essential. The study Of
logic thus finds an important position
waiting it. Well rounded development
rather than the production OF keen
thinkers on special subjects is the object
Of education. To this end early special
izing is 70 be avoided. Yet in time the
elective system is to be in force. Unity
and enthusiasm follow in the train OF
this system and in their turn these are
generators OF moral qualities.
1t is chiefly on his principle OF moral
training as the essential thing in educa>
ticn that President Andrews bases his
argument against the classics in the cur
riculm. Even the ancient writer's who
were ethical philosophers, he thinks,
have little message for this essentially
different age. The article. thus briefly
reviewed. is worthy a careful reading.

INCREASE IN FREIGHT SPEED.

AprOpOs o. the question Of economical
freight transportation, the Engineering
News believes hat one factor in the re-
duction OF the cost Of freight movement,
which is not always properly appreciat-
ed. is the great increase in freight train
speed wirich has taken place in the past
10 years. 1t used to be considered the
proper thing to freight train at
slow speed over the road. Fast freights
were considered a luxury. and only de-
feasible when competition made them
necessary, In order to secure business.
Probably the idea that 1t was wastesul
to run freight trains at high speed Or
iginated in the old tallacy that train re-
sistance increased very rapidly with in
creased speeds. This fallacy was firmly
fixed in the minds OF railway trainmen,
and officials as well. by the small boilers
which were the rule on all locomotives
until the sos. With these small boilers
and CRATES a freight locomotive was un-
able to pull a fair-sized train at consider
cradle speed, whereas there was usually
cylinder power enough and adhesion
enough to keep a train moving IL the
speed did not run up above Is or 20
miles an hour. What was more natural
than to conclude from this that the train
resistance increased very rapidly with
increase in speed.
But when railway managers awoke
to the fact that big train loads were the
secret Of economical operation, the boiler
and the crate Of the freight locomotive
began a rapid growth. The fast freights
which were originally put on only I'M
der stress Of competition taught sons
valuable lessons in economical trafdc
movement.

Mr.. james Rowland, of this village,
states that for twenty-five years his wife
has been sufferer from rheumatism. A
few night ago she was in such pain that
she was nearly crazy. She sent Mr.. Row
land for the doctor, but he had read OF
Chamberlain's Pain Balm and instead Of
going for the physician he went to the
store and secured a bottle of it. His wife
did not approve of Mr.. Rowland's pur-
chase at first, but nevertheless applied
the Balm thoroughly and in an hour
time was able to go to sleep. She nov
applies it whenever she feels an ache or
pain and finds that it always gives relief.
He says ne medicine which she had used
ever did her so much good. The % and
