The existence of Turkey in Europe
is dependent upon good behavior.
Like skillful time-server the Sultan
has played off the jealousles of Euro
pean powers against each other, and
very successfully up to the present.
Russia would have removed it from
the face of the earth in 1877-78 had it
not been for Englandis jealousy; and
the scimitar Of Its own barbarity would
have been laid to it's neck two years
ago had not similar reasons prevail
ed. A threatened life lasts long, but
at the time of its next relapse into
cruelty England and Russia, because
of the comfy created by their Asiatic
interests, will act together in European
affairs. The future of Italy is prob
lematical. The poverty and ignorance
off large proportion of its inhabitants
foretell disquiet, certain not to be
ailayed by the attitude of aristo-
cratic superiority assumed by the up
per classes toward the lower. Given
an ambitious man whose thoughts are
less ideal than those OF Pope Leo XIII.
nd1taly may yet see restoration of
the temporal power of the Pope. An
aid to such change will be found
among the poor who are religious to
the verge OF superstition. Spain will
give much attention. to internal i'm
provement during the neX half CEN
tury for it has now not much else to
worry about and the ignorance of its
masses together with the undeveloped
state of its own natural resources are
fruitful fields for the employment of
wise craftsmanship. But at the out
set there must be turning of the
back upon the grandee spirit which has
hitherto prevailed and which in its
effects has brought Spain to Its pres
ent state of shorn glory.

TRUE ECONOMY.

Some women entertain curious ideas
of what constitutes economy. A fragile
little housewife saves seventy-five cents
each week, because she cannot afford
to hire some one to do the ironing.
But she never hesitates to pay dollar
a pair for stockings, or two dollars for q
pair of gloves, or three for the doctors
visit occasioned by overtaxing her
strength. Another considers fruit a
luxury beyond the reach of the family
purse but she has no scruple whatever
in b0ying new material for the dress
which she has worn only few months
and employing dress maker to alter
the sleeves to accord with the present
fashion. We recall dear woman, the
delicate mother OF six children. who
would not save her strength by using a
carpet-sweeper, because, she said, "They
do wear out the carpet So" But the
habit of what she called economy wore
her out long before the carpets, and the
motherIess children have the things
mother saved instead Of her precious
SELF True economy considers other
values than dollars and cents. It also
studies how to secure the largest re.
turns from the expenditure OF money
The purchasing power of a dollar varies
greatly IN the hands Of different wo
men. She who has the post to show
not necessarily IN material goods or in.
creased sayings in the bank, but II
health and comfort, IN friendships
and growth Of character is the one wht
has most wisely used her Lords talent

THE STUDY OF ENGLISH.
Report of Special Committee at the
Next Teachers Assembly.

A special committee is preparing q
valuable and interesting report on the
Study of English in North Carolina
schools.
No study in our schools ranks in i'm
portance with the mother tongue. The
most difficult and at the same time the
most valuable requirement made IN
schools is the ability to write and speak
elegant English. A forward movement
along this line has been taken by the
North Carolina Teachers Assembly. AT
the last meeting a special committee
was elected to prepare full report con
corning the teaching of English in our
schools. This committee will report
fully at the next session of the Assem-
bly, in June. All the leading schools
of the State will be invited to help
make this report a very full one. The
committee consists of Prof. Edwin
Minis, Trinity College. chairman; Prof
J. Y. Joyner, State Normal and Indus
trial College; DR.. Thomas Hume, Uni
versity of North Carolina; Prof. w. I.
Whitsett, Whitsett Institute: Prof. J. d.
Eggleston, Asheville City Schools; Or.
h. f. Sledd, Wake Forest College; Prof
r. Fl. Harrison. Davidson College: Prof.
J. A. Bivins, Charlotte City Schools.
Blanks are now being sent to all the
prominent schools. asking for informa-
ton and cooperation so that the report
may be a very exhaustive one.

A Rush of Misery in
CeraniuIll vaIIev.

Early last week the Violets, Onions,
Strawberries and Turnip Salad were in
full bloom in the Valley.
Alas how things have changed since
then.
The blue violets have faded,
The Onions have shed their perfume,
The Strawberries have forever de-
parted,
The Turnip Salad will not again come.

the Senior Junior was wildly cheered
as he rounded up at the front door, Wild
