perts and instructors. when the gov
eminent became interested in the work
the students OF the guild schools had
80 thoroughly established their reputa-
ton In the commercial world that the
government thought best to allow the
guilds to continue the supervision OF
technical education.
There are over 81 trades and indus
tries In which technical education Ia
given In London. The list comprises
almost every class OF technical COM
merclal work. II includes all the i'm
portant chemical manufacturing indus
tries the mining and handling OF ores
In all It's branches. milling. the manu-
facture OF different fabrics. weaving
and spinning. TYPOGRAPHY. printing.
masonry. pottery AMI porcelain. gas
manufacture. iron and steel man
ufacture. paper manufacture. dye
ing. tanning. baking brewing.
plumbing. watch and clock max
ing. A glance at this comprehensive
but incomplete list OF state trade
schools In the various countries OF
Europe will discover many subjects
never seen on the technical school
rosters OF this country. but shows the
attention that Is given TO technical ed
ucatlon abroad with the object OF per-
fecting and encouraging commercial
trades and Industries.

One OF the most interesting and In
ttructiye publications Issued by the
government for some time Is the re-
cent volume on Foreign Trade Poll
cles OF the European Governments"
Aside from the treatment OF the mer-
chant marines. colonial policies. tariff
rates and commercial restrictions. the
subject OF state-aided technical oduca-
ton In the several countries Is very
fully discussed. Many OF the branches
taught In these technical schools are
covered to a slight extent by private
institutions In our own land. but there
are n great number OF special schools
that are entirely unknown here. In
Belgium, for example. there are 225
state schools for the training OF young
girls In housekeeping. besides some ~
other schools. exclusively for girls.
For the young men. Flanders weaving
appears to be the most important sub
ject, Judging from the number Of
schools devoted TO II. there being no
less than ~. In addition to these
there are two state tailoring schools.
n school OF iron and wood workers.
one at Brussels for teaching the art OF
printing; two schools devoted to the
advancement OF the fishing in
dustries. one at ostond and the other
nj Blankborgh; n school for watch
making and instruments OF precision;
an upholstery and jewelry trade school
and the latest addition. firearms
school. All OF these institutions are
maintained by the government for the
purpose OF stimulating manufacturing
interests and improving the quality OF
the output OF the country.
Political economists have called this
an age OF specialism, and the above list
shows how appropos the name really
Is. Great Britain, France. Germany.
Austrla and Switzerland all support
schools OF somewhat similar character.
In France almost every city renowned
for a particular reduction BOATS OF ono
or more technical schools for the edu-
cation OF the young men and women
in this particular line. the object being
10 maintain and improve the standard
OF work OF their predecessors. and to
introduce the new ideas that may APP
near In other communities. Germany
likewise has many great industrial and
art schools, some OF which are OF inter-
national repute. The art schools OF
Nuremburg and Munich, where wood
carving and metal work and general
decoration are taught. are especially
well known. Then. too, there is the
famous electro-technlcal school at
Hanover, and the weaving and dyeing
schools at Creheld. AK and Cottbus.
In Great Britain the Ancient Trade
Guilds OF the city OF London practi-
cally control all technical education.
although the government annually
contributes 100000 to the work. This
peculiar condition Of affairs is due 10

woman haiu 70 Ne Trying To influences
Jurymen Proved 10 he blind.
From the Philadelphia Press: That
juries are affected by handsome and
langulshing eyes is proven by re-
markable experience OF the greatest
advocate at the New York bar. tho late
James T. Brady. He was counsel for
n young woman In n case involving on
attempt to break will. His ciien.
sat by his side. She was a very beau
tiful young woman, whose eyes seem
ed always TO rivet the attention OF
those upon whom her glance fell.
There was n pathetic expression which
affected everyone. She sat watching
the Jury during the course OF the trial
and at last there was some complaint
that she was attempting by means OF
her glanoes TO excite the sympathy
OF the Jury. Then Mr.. Brady arose
and in one OF the most touching and
beautiful OF all the addresses he ever
made In court he spoke Of the bless
inga which everyone who had an APP
probation OF beautiful things and
could see them enjoyed. and dwelt for
some moments upon the happy lot OF
the Jury, who could see the budding
OF the flowers-it was then springtime
and the charms of nature. then, sud
denly turning to his client. he said;
"That blessing is denied my client.
for. though she has eyes which seem
to look upon you. gentlemen. there Is
no vision in them. for her sight has
been taken from her." She had been.
in fact. the victim OF total paralysis
OF the optic nerve, which had not i'm
paired the beauty OF her eyes, but had
given TO them that slngularly pathetic
expression which she was thus falsely
charged with employing that she
might secure the sympathles OF the
jury.
