g. Stanley Hall has the right idea
concerning school education. He tells
as that ''the great danger in our schools
arises from imperfect health. 1t has
become the custom In some countries
that some Of the best and most pro-
gressive city wards provide doctors to
examine every child In the lower grades
the child's complexion, eyes. muscles.
and as to appetite, ETC., and gives d.
rections according to the needs of the
case. For myself, say, 'whatshall 1t
profit a child II 1t gain the whole world
Of knowledge. and lose its own health?
Or what shall a child give In exchange
for its health? We have forgotten that
children cannot sit still, yet 1t is one
Of the commands that resound In the
school-room from morning till night.
We have found that the idea that chill
dren can sit still must be abandoned,
and teachers must learn to possess their
nerves and patience If the children do
not sit still. We all live for life. There

eOILiNo AWAY A DIME.

Silver Piece Disappeared In Vapor In
snalie.t Pot and Hottest Fire.
Prof. NJ. 1. Pupin. of Columbia Col
lege. boiled a 1O-cent piece the other
day. and watched it dissolve and pass
away In the form Of vapor, just as one
might do with a pot Of water.
While he was doing 1t he declared
that any substance on earth might be
boiled and made to become vapor II
only you had heat great enough to do It.
He did not except granite rock.
First he boiled his dime He cut 1t up
into small pieces, which he placed In
the hollow carbon of an electric arc
lamp. When the lamp is lighted the
carbOns stand one above the other, the
sharp point Of one carbon fitting into
the ''cup" Of the other.
1t was In this little cup that Prof
Pupin boiled his dime. Probably it was
the smallest pot and the hottest fire in
the world.
He placed the pieces Of the dime IL.
the hollow end of one carbon. and fixed
the other pointed carbon down against
them. Then he turned on the electric
current. He had arranged his appar-
atus in front Of a magic lantern, SO that
the whole thing could be seen on a
large white screen.
OF course, the electric current pass
ing between the carbons made them
very hot, and the cup soon became fill
ed with . white heat. 1t was wonder
full to see how quickly the silver dime
melted and simmered and finally boiled.
It really danced around in the little pct
like any liquid. getting smaller and
smaller ~ 1t turned to vapor and pass
ed away into the atmosphere.
In about two minutes the last Of II
was seen to float away in vapOr and
disappear. The 1O-cent piece had, IN
fact, boiled away.-BostOn Globe.

The School Grounds.

1t will not be difficult to educate
school boys to respect fiower-borders,
window boxes, vines, and shrubbery. II
teachers themselves will display intelli-
gent interest and affection for the
school grounds. When these are Of
considerable size a great educationn:
field can be opened by teachers who
know something of botany, plant
growth, and forestry. Such surround
ings can be employed to the highest
advantage In cultivating in children oh
servation, and in imparting elementary
ideas of natural science. How many
teachers are there who care for these
things or are qualified to instruct chill
dren in the laws Of plant-growth? We
apprehend that there are comparative
" few who do not need an elementary
education in botany and forestry. The
beginning Of this educational reform
really lies with the teachers them
selves.-New York Tribune.

Praise for American Schools.

DR.. Krohn. a prominent educator.
graduate Of Yale and who has studied
in France, Germany, Austria, Italy and
England, says that he is firmly con-
vinced that the system Of public schools
in this country is far in advance Of all
other nations, but that our system has
too much forcing. and unless much
care is exercised in that regard it will
tell on the children. He further says
that precocity, unless carefully guard.
ed and directed, is almost as dangerous
as imbecility.

ing letter in reference to teachers
examinations:
1t is intended soon to hold a series
of teachers examinations in each ma
ton, whose schools we control, GER
titicates will be issued to all who
pass the examination. In the selec-
ton Of teachers, preference will be

one year, applicants will be examin-
ed in reading, penmanship, orthog-
raphy, arithmetic, grammar, geogra-
ply, United States history, physiol.

ing.
For a first grade certificate, valid
for two years, applicants will, in ad.
dition to the above named branches
be examined in botany, algebra, civ
il government, bookkeeping and lit.
erature.
1t is not intended to make these ex
aminations very difficult this year
but shall aim to fairly test the
knowledge of the teachers. Those
who are barely able to pass an exam
ination will BE expected to improve
from year to year, and the examina
ticns will be so arranged as to re-
quire all teaches to become careful
students of their work.
The city and village school boards
of the Territory may, if they desire
require their teachers to pass these
examinations.

The Hague, June 1.-The American
mediation scheme was unanimously
adopted at yesterdays sitting of the
sub b-committee, which embodied as
article VII the scheme prepared by
the subcommittee with few altera-

The first commission by a vote of
IS to 3 has adopted a resolution pro-
hibiting the use of dumdum (or fat
tened bullets.) Italy, Australia and
Great Britain formed the minority.
1t was also resolved to prohibit the
use of explosives from balloons and
explosive bullets.
An agreement was found to be i'm
possible on all the important propo-
sails and the conviction is growing
more than ever that the work of the
first commission is doomed to failure.
