planned out on the actual condition OF
the human mind. We are only at the
| cock-crowing of our knowledge of the
real needs of the mind, and the very
| best method of training it, so that any
| system must be imperfect and tenta-
| tive.
Education is, after all, only means
to one end, that of securing the best
living. Mathematics, geometry, the
| languages and arts, have no value I'M
less they secure something that is bet
ter or the best. In spite of the pro-
gress in charging education, the broad
educators feel that there is something
sadly lacking yet The students gradu-
ate with false notions about life. The
home life does not remove these no
tions, for the parents themselves have
unfortunately the same false notions.
Education" after graduation is US
ually arrested by the struggle in the
world. 1t seems, therefore, that the
students should be especially grounded
as far as possible in the evolution Of
history. 1t touches their lives and con-
seriousness more closely than any other
subject. History is the record of hui
man experience, but students do not
clearly understand that the sources of
it are the thoughts and acts Of the
masses Of men, who really control ev-
ents. Kings and statesmen are merely
the figure heads, the spokesman, the
sign posts, as Lamartine, we believe,
said of Napoleon, that if he had not
lived. the great Revolutionary move
ment would have existed and spent its
force, under some other leader.
For this reason, the American His
torical Association recently recon-
mended the more thorough study OF
the sources of history. The student
even in the earlier stages of his educa-
ton, needs to realize that he thinks
and acts, just as the millions who have
preceded him, thought and acted
though he may move on higher plane
He will never get the best uses from
his other studies, unless he understand:
this well. But above all stands thu
teacher, who should be, with the aid o
books. the best course Of study. Be
cause we are only at the cock-crowins
or morning of civilization, his profes
sion is not what it should be, the fore
most of all professions.

HONOLULU HIGH SCHOOL.

The course of study for the High
School, published by the Department OF
Public instruction, appears to be ex-
cellent. At time in the evolution OF
education, when the tendency is to
crowd students, without much regard
to their physiological or psychological
condition, there is pleasure in observ-
1g a course of study that is rational,
and sufficient in many ways for the
average higher education. A glance at
the pages of this course Of study, is
proof enough that the students who fol-
low it seriously. may become "educat-
ed in the usual sense in which that
term is employed.
Systems of education are based ev-
erywhere on the racial beliefs and
habits, to a large extent, and are not

WEATHER FORECAST.
Wind and Weather In \. Pacific
Ocean For February.
Branch photographic Office,
San Francisco, Cal, Jan. 25, 1898.

san FRANCISCO, Cdl-, Jan. %, 1898.
The following forecast has just been
received from the photographic Office,
Washington, D. c.:
Along its south side, in the part
of the ocean east of the Hawaiian ISL
ands, the trade winds may be expect
ed TO blow with a decidedly northern
slant, while to the westward Of them
the trades may be expected generally
to be Ely or enc. 1y. During Feb
ruary the belt of Gains and Variables
between the trades may be expected to
be narrow, so narrow in some places
that vessel may pass from one trade
wind into the other without any per-
ceptible break. North Of the 35th
parallel, frequent westerly gales, &C
companied by rain or snow, may be eX-
pected.
During this month occasional dan
gerous gales may be expected on the
American coast north Of the 10th paral-
lei. Occasional squalls may be expect
ed in the vicinity of the Hawaiian ISL
ands.
"Typhoons are usually infrequent
during February. The n. E. monsoon
on the coast of China may be expected
to continue to blow steadily during the
month.
Occasional fog will be found along
the American coast, though not suffi-
cient to warrant it's probable limits
being shown on the chart.

SENATOR BACON'S AMENDMENT,

The amendment to the Treaty
offered by Senator Bacon, requir-
ing that it should be submitted
TO the vote Of the Hawaiian peO-
pie, must open up Il very funny
debate on the rights Of the peo-
pie" and the rule of the major
ity." No one can really define
what these phrases mean. They
are about as vague as the phrase
''be good" upon which any one
can put such Interpretation as he
pleases. American and British
political literature is full OF noble
sentiments about these rights.
American orators. before 1861,
got eloquent over the God given
rights of man, but excluded the
niger and Indian. Now they eX-
clude the intelligent Asiatics.
The Americans refused to be rul
ed by the majority in 1776 unless
they got their rights. So they
went into revolution. Then when
the people of the South said, in
1861: LET us have the same
rights to rule ourselves, that we
all claimed in 1776, the North
said: what was sound principle
then isn't sound principle now "
and Gas the North claims very
properly bayonetted them into
submission. AS to "rights," the
dirty, ignorant Polish Jew, and
the most degraded italian peas
ant may become a citizen of the
United States, but an Asiatic
graduate of Harvard cannot.
AS for British ideas about the
rule of the majority, their history
is so comical it must make the
angels. who follow it up, roar
with laughter, especially when
Ireland. India and the Fijis are
in view.
The American Senators, when
not talking to the galleries, and
when confidentially cOnversing IL
the cloak rooms must say: "PO
litical rights, including the rule
of the majority are, after all only
what force secures, or what the
dominant power grants. There
is no such thing as consistency
in the business"
The native Hawaiian Commit
tee in Washington, would be sad
ly puzzled. if the question was
put to them by the Senators
ssAs the Asiatics are much more
thrifty. and skillful in all branch
es of human industry than you
are, why should they not vote as
we'll as you? If you say your
rights come from the soil, tell us
how much soil your King an6
Chiefs ever gave you? How mucl
of it do you now own?"
In the sadly mixed up belief:
about rights, the Senators will
take the title to the Islands, made
by the present Government as
quite sufficient. Senator White
admits it. But if any Senator OPP
poses annexation on general prln
ciples. he will club the treaty will
this curious weapon of majorit.
rule.
If Senator Bacon was asked t.
use the same club, in Georgia
where BlOunt was elected to Con
gress by the suppression OF al
overwhelming negro vote, as thu
Congressional Record shows h'
would at once make a 'distinc
ton" You can do almost any
thing in law, or in morals, if yOI
have the wit to make a plausible
distinction"

Cure by Hoods Sarsapariiia
After Others Failed.

81 was taken with neuralgia in my
head and eyes. Not long after this, a
scrofula sore appeared on my left cheek,
extending from my upper lip to my eye.
Other sores came on my neck and on my
right arm and one of my limbs. They
were very troublesome and painful and
soon became great running sores. My
face looked so bad that some of nv
neighbors could not bear to look at me
and advised me to wear a bandage, but
feared this would irritate the sore and
make it worse. Sol

Could Not Hide the Sores.

My niece, who was familiar with a case
similar to mine, which had been cured by
Hoods Sarsaparilla, urged me to try it.
Finally was persuaded to do so, and in
short time l saw it was helping me.
The sores began to heal and the neu-
ralgia in my head was better. In a few
months the sores on my arms and limbs
all healed; those on my neck gradually
disappeared and now they are all gone.
l have never had any symptom of scrofula
since. One large scar on my right arm is
all the sign that remains of my terrible
affection. The neuralgia is also cured. "

A GREENSBORO REMEDY.
By Helen f. Gardner.

Young Mr.. and Mrs Sweetser have been
married but seven months; the first six
months of their welded life were spent in
a boarding house but one month ago they
set up housekeeping, in as cosy nest as
one could find in months tramp through
Bostons suburbs They live but six miles
from the city; the electric cars run past
their door; there are three electric lights
ON the street; in fact they are situated in
an ideal location, and their lower fiat of
five rooms boasts every modern conven-
fence, with the exception of pantry and
clothes closets
When Mr.. Sweetser mentioned hiring a
girl. his wife shook her little brown head
with a decisiveness of manner that really
caused Mr. SweetseT to wonder
mo Ned" she said, I'VE will not need
a girl. liz have all the heavy work done,
and it will be so much cosier to be alone,
and not have a third person, and an impu-
dent. inquisitive one at that-for very like
Nv she would be so-always about Every
thing is new, and so convenient that I'm
sure | shan get along nicely"
The first few days everything seemed to
glide along in a smooth fashion, and Mr..
Sweetser came from the city each night
10 a bright, homelike fat with a dainty
supper spread on the dining room table and
a smiling wife i'm a white dress. 1t was so
good and ideal that ii made him think of
an the Sunday school books he had read
wears before, in which the hero always
reached this kind of happiness in the last
chapter.
one evening last week, however, he no
ticed that his wife looked rather weary,
and there was a slight irritability in her
manner; he did not remark upon the fact,
but the next evening he found the supper
only half prepared, and little Mrs. Sweet

How Canyons were Formed.

The secret of the great denudation and
of this wonderful achievement of the Col
orado in carving out OF rock a series Of
canyons about so miles long, and In one
place at least, more than mile deep,
with a multitude Of tributary chasms and
gorges is very simple when you know 1t.
The old lake bed slowly rose. At first
the Colorado river and its tributaries, or
some nameess monstrous ancestor of
these, sweeping over the slowly rising sur
faces, planed them down in most relent-
less fashion. and then began wearing out
broad shallow stream beds. But then the
country rose more rapidly and the water
had to cut deeper channels in the rocks
in order 20 get out and away to sea.
owing in part to the wear of the water
itself. but more to the eeaseless lombard
ment Of the suspended sand which 1t bore
from the up country or picked up as /,
vent along. and to the thump of pebbles
and powders which u swept on In flood
time. the river kept cutting down as the
strata rose, until finally. when what was
left on our inland sea bottom got thrust
up so that. towering far above its erst-
while rocky shores Il had to be called a
plateau, the Colorado and It's auxiliaries
found themselves at the bottom OF a series
Of colossal canyons and gorges. where they
