KNEW HIS BUSINESS.
Knew Something Besides What He Read
in Books
Paris, November 5, 1900

Knew Something Besides What He Read
in Books.
The wise, up to- date, modern doctor is
no longer tied down to the hard and
fast rules of what his medical books say
he shall use and what he may withhold
in treating his patient
The successful doctor nowadays is the
one who is quick to avail himself OF any
remedy, new or old which holds out a
chance of cure no matter whether it is
Allopathic, Homeopathic or neither one.
DR.. Jennison, in an interesting article
on indigestion and dyspepsia says: Nine
tenths OF all people, who apply to me for
advice and treatment think they have
this ailment or that ailment, but 1 find
on close examination that their whole
trouble arises from poor digestion.
They have little appetite and if they
do have an appetite the food they eat
does them no good. Why? Because it
is but half digested, causing thin blood,
weak nerves, sleeplessness, aching bones,
pains in chest, formation Of gases, belch-
ing, etc. They tell me they believe they
have consumption, 70 heart disease, rheu-
matism, nervous prostration, in fact most
every disease but the right one.
In reality the whole trouble is in the
stomach and nowhere else. Now what l
do with such people? l don't feed them
on pre-digested foods like babies, nor
stomach bitters, nor patent nostrums
which | know nothing about. No honora-
BILE physician will prescribe remedy un-
less he knows what it contains and it's
probable effects.
For all such patients / have but one
prescription, / advise them to go to the
nearest drug store and get so cent box
of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets l use
them with remarkable success in all cases
of indigestion and stomach trouble, be-
cause / know what Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets consist OF and what they will
do. They contain the vegetable essences,
diastase and government test pepsin
which are the things every weak stomach
lacks to restore natural digestive vigor
and if I had dyspepsia myself it is the
one remedy l should take.
When patient comes to me complain
ing of dull headaches, sour stomach, bad
taste, nervousness, belching of gas, or
heart trouble which is generally caused
from indigestion I tell him to take one
or two of Stuart's Tablets after each
meal and as often during the day as he
has any trouble and l feel confident I
have given that patient the best advice l
could give"
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are large,
pleasant tasting lozenges, containing dias-
tase and pepsin combined with fruit and
vegetable essences. They are not ca
thartic and do not act on any particular
organ like ordinary drugs but simply
act entirely on the food eaten. They
are natural digestive, pure and simple.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold by
druggists at so cents per package
throughout the United States. Canada and
Great Britain.

PUBLIC SCHOOL SUGGESTIONS.

To the Editor:-Since the public school
question is the paramount issue" in
North Carolina, l submit the following
for considerations
l. Change the ages of public school sub
jects from to u to to II.
Reasons why this change should be
made:
% Most of the public schools are too
much crowded to admit of effective teach
ing
CD The overgrown pupils Chose above
ID absorb more than their proportionate
part Of the teachers attention, and if dis
posed TO be unruly, give the most trou-
BILE.
90 Every boy or girl ought to complete
the public school course before the age
of IS.
ca Children under years of age ought
rot to be compelled to sit six hours
day in a crowded school-room or any
where else. 1t is terribly cruel to require
1t of them; hence, many children Of ten
der years get an aversion to school which
they never get over, All children ought
The news & observer. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1894-current, 1900-12-23

| If possible, to learn to read at home.
2. Compel parents or guardians to send
| to school public or private) all children
between the ages of 10 and Is.
| Reasons for this:
mFrom 10 to 10 is the time when
children should do most of the work re-
quired in the public school course.
(2) Five years is all the time necessary
for the average pupil who can read, to
complete the public school course, pro-
vided the school term is as much as four
months in the year.
| (3) The public schools are provided es-
pecially for the children of citizens who
are not flush in means. and If the State
goes to the trouble and expense of pro-
viding these schools. the people ought to
be required to give their children the
advantage of them.
3. The county superintendent should be
| school man, and should be paid a sala-
ry large enough to enable him to super
intend.
Reasons for this:
a. No man is competent to superin-
tend business unless he is acquainted
with all the details of the business.
(2)There is enough for a county super
| intendent to do, and which he ought to
do to keep him employed most of his
time.
go In factories the superintendent re-
ceives higher wages than the workmen,
but no mill man would think of trying to
run the business without competent su-
perintendent in each department. The
same principle applies in the school bus
mess In the city graded schools this
| principle is followed. hence they are the
| best schools we have.
ca The average township trustee or
| district committeeman has crude ideas
with reference to the conduct and equip
| ment of schools, and he needs the guild
| ance of competent leader in the person
of the county superintendent.
90 The average public school teacher
needs whether he thinks so or mott sug-
gestions from an experienced supervisor.
A. If law could be framed allowing
the school district (instead of the town
ship to tax itself to supplement it's gen.
eral school fund. then local taxation
might amount to something.
Respectfully submitted,

arisen the great colleges for girls in the
North, with few in the South. and DUR
ing this period the great universities OF
the country have thrown open their doors
to girls And, too, along with this insist
ence upon the thorough teaching of girls
has come a change in the methods of
teaching music and art. Both of these,
when properly taught. are regarded as
affording valuable training, especially of
the aesthetic part of our nature. Music
is now taught as science, and a very
dignified science, and is a valuable auXil-
larry in mental training.
The Importance of physical culture is
more deeply felt than ever. Baseball
came in during my college course, foot
ball some years later. Gymnasiums, un-
known in North Carolina thirty years ago,
are considered necessary part of the
equipment of colleges for girls, as well
as of those for boys.
l think it will be generally agreed that
higher value is put upon religious train
ing in our schools. Boys and girls are
in school at an age when they are most
susceptible to spiritual influence, at a
period when there is the first awakening
of the spiritual life In order to aid and
accomplish LllS Q0VelOpmcuI5 Ouiy lSdCI-
ers of the highest character, of the broad
est sympathies, are employed. We are
insisting more and more upon the per-
scnal element in our teaching, and in this
respect largely lies the difference between
our Southern and Northern colleges. Our
Northern schools are relying more upon
their equipments than Southern schools,
while Southern schools are insisting more
upon the character of the teacher. Be-
cause of this difference. DR.. Broadus once
said that he believed that the average
teaching in Southern was higher than in
Northern colleges.
That which is most inspiring is the
rapidly increasing interest in education in
North Carolina. Every school in the
State that has been pushed with vigor, is
full. New schools are filled as soon as
built, and the old schools continue to in
crease. There is pressing need for all the
schools in North Carolina; and if the rate
of increase for the past two or three
years is continued for ten years lon
ger, the present accommodations for pu-
pills will have to be doubled. This state
of things is compensating those who have
been in the thick of the fight against
ignorance for these years. and they are
reaping rich harvest in increased OPP
portunities for usefulness.

CHANGES THAT OUGHT TO BE MADE
IN THE PUBLIC SCHOOL LAW.

To the Editor. The county board of
school directors ought to meet the second
Monday in each month, and continue in
session two days at the January, April
and July meetings, and not be allowed
TO have any called meetings. For their
services they should be paid three dollars
per diem and mileage.
2 The township school trustees should
be discontinued, and one school commit
teeman appointed for each district by the
county board of school directors, Said
committeeman should be paid two dollars
for taking the census, and should be re-
quired to report also the number of chill
dren in the district between the ages of
ten and twenty years who cannot read
and write.
8. The county board of school directors
should be required to redstrict the coun-
ty, allowing no school houses to be
nearer each other than three miles on a
straight line; provided that every incorpo-
rated town shall be entitled to at least
one school house.
A. The order for building and repairing
school houses should come from the
board of school directors when the cost
is above ten dollars, and the bill paid
from the unapportioned fund of the coun-
ty. All sums of ten dollars or under.
and also all wood bills should be paid
from the district funds.
5. The county superintendent of schools
should be paid not less than three COL
lars nor more than four dollars per diem .
Provided there shall not be more than
four per cent of the school fund spent
for his salary. And the restriction re-
shall be allowed pay should be discon-
tinued
6. A diploma from any of the leading
colleges of the State should entitle any
one to teach in the public schools, sub
ject to the same restrictions as those OF
the State Normal and Industrial College,
the Peabody College and the Normal
School at Asheville. third-gra GER
tiicate should be granted, and restricted
to the position of an assistant teacher.
The county superintendent should be al
lowed to hold public examinations at the
Teachers Institutes.
Z. The county board of school directors
should apportion the school fund to the
townships per capita as it now does, then
fix the maximum for each school in the
township according to the kind of teacher
ship fund to the various districts in said
township so as to continue the schools as
nearly as possible the same length of
time.
g. We should have compulsory school
law compelling those having children, un-
der their control. to send those between
the ages of and Is years, to school at
least two months in the year.
O ha
be $780, 900.
These statements are made in no spirit
of dictation to the honorable incoming
Legislature. but in the spirit of love for
the children of the State.
The changes noted are not put in the
proper order. If it is thought we'll to
make any or all of them the proper ar
rangements can be made then.
We hope the county superintendent
will let US hear from them.

"NOT THIS MAN BUT BARABBAS."

Twenty centuries ago, the scriptural
chronicles informs US, witnessed the
enactment of the profoundest tragedy
of human life. The scene was laid in
the court yard of king, the actors were
a Nazarene of pure and lowly life,
governor representing Rome in it's
cruelty and mercilessness and a bandit
just brought from the dungeon. The
audience was fierce mob, who became
part of the tragedy and who became
part of history by the cry they uttered,
"Not this man, but Barabbas. The
choice was against the Nazarene and in
favor of the bandit and insurrectionist.
1t condemned the frenzied mob and
exalted the Nazarene. The latter, no
matter what may be thought regarding
his claim to divinity, is now admitted to
be the purest and noblest character the
world has ever known. Even the
agnostic and skeptic yield him tribute
of mind and heart. By 100000, 900 of
people he is worshipped as God. BY
them to level him to the frailties of
human life is blasphemy. To raise any
man, it matters not what the wild
devotion impelling to such act may be,
to his level is condemned as sacrilegious
beyond the faintest shadow of reverence
Therefore it is not matter of wonder.

only whether his own plans be sound,
his success or failure depending entirely
upon the industry and intelligence with
which he prosecutes them. All the
natural conditions in the United States
are such as point to the greatest pros
perity. With inexhaustible and readily
accessible bodies of ore and coal, greater
in extent and more cheaply mined than
in other quarters of the globe, we may
reasonably expect the value of manufac-
tured products exported to steadily in
crease. We may not be astonished in a
few years to see the value of our month
ly exports exceed the value of the i'm
ports by over $75, 100000.
The rule of wealth in the United
States heretofore has been to be prudent
ly sanguine of the continued prosperity
and development of the country. This
rule may still be safely followed, and in
no way can one testify in more sub
stantial manner to belief in it than in
the purchase of ell.selected railroad
stocks. If there is any one phase of
modern life that is pronounced, 1t is that
of the movement of individuals from
one spot to another. Civilization is
daily growing more complex. To satisfy
the wants of men the four quarters of
the globe must be ransacked for food

ually increases and until the law of

REVOLT AGAINST THE LEADERSHIP
OF BRYAN.
The crushing and overwhelming de-
feat of Mr. Bryan has brought demo
cratic leaders to realization Of the
necessity of a complete reorganization
and regeneration of the party, the
abandonment of the vagaries of Bryan
archy, and return to former principles
and conservative, old time leadership.
The following opinions from prominent
democrats, part Of whom supported
Mr.. Bryan this year, show the strength
of this feeling:
Hoke Smith.
The Georgia member Of Cleveland's
cabinet holds this view: II think it un.
wise for democrats to undertake this
early to suggest who should be their
candidate in 1904. I can only say he
should be loyal democrat, thoroughly
in favor of sound money-a man of rec
ognized ability, and yet free from fac
tional opposition. We must redeem
New York, New Jersey and Connecti-
cut, aud we must carry all the south
ern states and carry Indiana. With the
right candidate. on q sound. conserva-
tive platform, Illinois, Wisconsin, Cali.
fornia and Washington should also all
go democratic.
James II. Eckels.
The ex comptroller of the currency
says: "Thes future of the democratic
party depends largely upon the wisdom
of democrats, both in and out of the Or
ganization, in dealing with the results
of Tuesday. That result conclusively
demonstrated that as a great party
leader Mr.. Bryan is wholly failure.
His methods have made the party weak
where it was strong and his principles
have lost to it at the present all the ele-
ments that gave it standing in natur-
ally democratic strongholds. AS it pre-
sented itself in the campaign just closed
it was almost wholly populistic. Mr..
Bryan's advisers were largely populists
or democrats who were not trusted by
the conservative elements of the coun-
try"
Horace BOies.
The former democratic governor of
Iowa says: 1T is high time that steps
were taken to reorganize the democratic
party, and return it's destinies to the
hands of the old and tried leaders. My
views in this matter are we'll known,
for have for four years or more been
advocating in speech and letter rehab
ilitation of democracy on lines of safe
