A STRONG SERMON.

The Rev. Charles M. Afford, pastor
of the Westminster Presbyterian
church. of Philadelphia, and formerly
pastor of the Third Presbyterian
church of this city, is attracting gem
eral attention by his special sermons
on current topics. Recently he accom-
panied officials of the city on a SUM
ming expedition, and last Sunday he
delivered a very forcible sermon on
Midnight Views of Sin in the Tender
loin District of Philadelphia. He had
very large congregation of men
only, to whom he pointed out the dan
gers. both moral and physical, OF
drink and sensuality. The papers de-
voted considerable space to their re-
ports of this discourse.

The Klondike social at st. Matthew's
Protestant Episcopal church, last eve
ming, was an unqualified success in
every respect The general scheme OF
the decorations and arrangement of
the lecture room was described in
the Register yesterday morning The
throng of guests was large. Each re-
ceived a shovel and permit to stake
a claim. Some of the claims proved
absolutely worthless, but the specula-
tive fever was running high, and
many staned off additional claims with
better results. The nuggets were
wrapped in gold or silver foil and
consisted of useful and ornamental
articles. The ladies wore appropriate
gowns, and a committee served re-
freshments throughout the evening,
consisting of ices, cake, sandwiches,
coffee, and chocolate. The search for
the nuggets created no end of merri-
ment and the affair was pronounced
by all who were present, one of the
most novel and interesting entertain
ments of its nature ever given in the
city. The handsome and costly
draperies which attracted SO much at
tention We're loaned for the occasion
by Mr.. o. c. Dewey, who secured them
in Oriental countries while making his
tour CT the world.

one Of the commonest diseases and
one OF the most obstinate. People
nave It for years, and just because it
Is not immediately fatal they neglect it.
CareleSsness causes no end of suffer-

Hemorrhages occur during surgical
treatment, often causing death
Piles are simple in the beginning and
easily cured. They can be cured even
III the worst stages, without pain or
loss OF blood, quickly, surely and con-

will do it-Pyramid Pile Cure.
1t allays the inflammation immedi-

Mr.. VIM. B. Powell, superintendent
there is some occasion to believe that
much of the spinal curvature found in
adults has been produced by faulty
writing positions taken in the school
rooms during the period Of growth.
In vertical writing, as taught in the
lower grades, the paper is placed di-
rectly in front, parallel with the front
edge of the desk, the body held square
ly to the front, with chest up, the bend
forward being made from the hips.
This is the best position from the
standpoint of health"
Superintendent l.. H. Jones, Of Cleve-
land says that ''the first year work is
the place to introduce vertical writing;
that when position and form is learned
here that the main point for good
writer's is gained"
1t is a constant trouble among the
teachers to know what is the best
method for teaching writing. 1t is
certain that writing is not a success,
as it is taught at present, in our pub
lie schools. Business men find fault
| when our boys 60 among them as
clerks Our pupils do not make neat
figures, the writing is irregular and
that something is wrong with our sys-
tenn of writing is the general COM
plant. Vertical writing is not new
thing under the sun" but is centuries
old. There seems to be a general ten
dency among educators to give this
system a fair trial. The largest east
ern. as we'll as the western cities, have
shown some excellent results from
using this system. The only way to
prove a system is by actual experience.
No teacher can decide for or against
method until she has used it with her
rnpils. Would it not be good plan
for tie Poald Of Education to permit
tie teachers who are willing to try
The vertical met bod to do so before the
cad of The year and show results to
the Committee on Text Books before
any system is adopted next year?
One advantage that the vertical sys-
tenn possesses is, that it can be taught
by all the teachers without special
writing teacher With the other sys-
tens every teacher has a different
slant With the straight writing there
could be no variation. l think every
teacher will agree that no one will
learn to write from simply following
copy book. The blackboard is the
best medium for teaching writing. One

Flick, by especial request, repeated the
introduction and rondo Beethoven;
opus 53), her recital being prefaced
with the reading of carefully pre-
pared and mature paper, description
Of the composition, by Mrs. julius Pol
lock. Mrs. Flicks performance was
even more brilliant than her recital
of the entire composition, two weeks
ago. Her rival of yesterday at the
piano was Miss Grace Pollack, per-
haps the youngest pianist of the Club,
but none the less musician of present
great ability and bright promise. Her
number was LISTS brilliant transcript
ton of Schubert's "Hark, Hank, the
Lark" and no more interesting inter-
probation has ever filed the hall with
melody. Miss Pollack is to be con-
graduated upon her success.
The vocal numbers, which predomin-
ated on the programme, were alike ex-
cellently given. A notable event was
the musical debut of Miss Flora Stifel.
daughter of Mr.. William F. Stifel, who
charmed all who heard her, both in
her solo and in the duet with Miss Har-
vey Miss Theresa Phillips also won
new laurels, while the chorus was ex-
ceptionally pleasing.
The recital as whole was a most
enjoyable one, and one cannot but ex-
press the regret that the general mus
ical public is debarred by the rules Of
the organization from participating in
the delights of the afternoon concerts.

1t is often a matter of wonder to
the teachers why parents cannot be
presented with a copy of the rules
made by the Board of Education So
often the parents blame the teachers
when the latter are simply carrying
out the law. The honest teacher must
do this, no matter how unpleasant may
be the results for herself. 1t is the
teachers duty to send home unwashed
children, no matter if she may be
threatened with lawsuit at the close
of the day. BE sure you are right,
and go ahead" must be the teach
ers motto. If you have. after trying
every other plan, whipped the right
boy, in the right place, rest assured
the Board of Education will stand by
you no mater what dire calamities IN
wise parents may threaten. 1T is the
woman who hesitates that is lost" not
the woman who does the right act with
