We need more good common sense
taught in our public schools than any
thing else. Women can and ought
to be allowed to know many things
she does not know, and the following
is step in the right direction.
"A special committee of the Brook
lyn board of education has recon-
meGded the establishment of a new
type of girls high school. is pro-
posed that the new high school shall
teach its pupils only the ordinary
English branches, emitting all other
studies which, while they fl girls for
professional pursuits, do not fit them
in any way for the common, every
day work Of the American woman.
They will he taught, instead, the use
OF all kinds Of light machinery used
IN manufacturing establishments.
and of such common tools as house
keeping women have constantly to
use. And they will be given
thorough knowledge Of foods, cookery
and IF sanitary science as applied to
keeping homes clean and healthy"

ODDITIES OF POISONING.
Some May Eat With Impunity Ger tain Foods Which are Rank Poisons to Others.

The constitutional differences and peculiarities which exist among in- dlviduals should always be carefully watched and considered. One person can handle poison ivy with impunity while another is poisoned if only in the vicinity If the vine and without contact. Some members of q family residing in q malarlal district will suffer regularly with chils and fever, while other members will not be at all affected.
 Food that is actually poisonous to some persons, will not so act on others. Ore person may eat all kinds of green fruit and vegetables with impunity, while another person could do so only at the risk of life. Certain kinds of fish are actually poisonous to some people and per ectiy V holpsome to others.
 It is this peculiar condition of the system which constitutes the danger point in the individual ease and should be prudently observed by each one for himself. Intestinal de- rangements frequently arise from and are aggravated by certain kinds of food. Thus a person affected with kidney or liver trouble should not eat very white bread since the ex- treme whiteness is often produced by the Use of alum with an inferior ar. ticie of flour, and as alum is known to be poisonous i'll its effects on q sound constitution. this is why alum baking powder is never used by peo pie of judgment and discretion.
 More of earthly harpiness depends upon what we eat than many peo- pie realize and it is for this reason that the different States are one by one passing pure-food laws.
