VIM e. CURTIS in his letters to the
Chicago Record Heaald says: There is
no illiterate class in Sweden. Education
is compulsory to the age of fourteen
Those who are above that age and are
unable to read or write are only such as
are too stupid to learn, or to remember
what has been taught. All Swedes &C
quire some useful and practical trade or
calling 1t is considered inexcusable to
permit boy to arrive at manhood with
out some accomplishment which will en-
able him to take his place among those
who are self-sustaining. This widely
distributed effort to perfect the race to
the point of self-help has given the
Swedish people the reputation of being
conspicuously industrious and provident
The percentage of illiteracy is smaller
than in any other country in the world,
being less than 2 per cent. of the popu-
lation, although Denmark and Norway
are nearly on a plane with Sweden in
this respect.

THE two most important utterances
made in the month of September were
Mr.. McKinIeys speech at Buffalo, in
which he enuncated his program OF re-
ciprocity and the cultivation of interna-
tional amity, and Mr.. Roosevelt's address
a few days earlier at Minneapolis, in
which the purposes and ideas of the man
whom the assassin's act has since raised
to the Presidency are clearly and fully
set forth. Both these addresses have an
unusual historic Importance, and read
ers of the Review of Reviews will be glad
to find the full texts reproduced in the
October number Of that magazine.

He Comes to Cure.

DR.. Black, the specialist, who is at the
u. S. Hotel every Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday, has been meeting with great
success in the treatment of chronic d.
seases, especially catarrh, kidney and
stomach troubles. He has been treating
George Lackner of Indian Ford, and
here is what Mr.. Lackner says of him:
''Dr. Black has done for me what all
of catarrh is wonderful in it's results. [
heartily recommend him"
Other local patients whose names are
given for reference are Mrs. Fuller and
daughter and Mr.. Saxby. DR.. Black is
we'll known in GAINESVILLE and Edgerton
and can furnish the best of references.

Praises The Flame Killer.

The following is from Prof j. O. EN-
cry, ex-State Superintendent of Public
Schools, and at present member of the
Board of Regents of Normal schools, and
comes from one who understands chem
istry, the action of gases and their rela-
ton to combustion, therefore is author
ity unquestionable.
If we would be prepared to extinguish
fires and avert confagration, if we would
save property, home and lives of those
in our keeping, we can not put off until
the fire occurs and then deny our re-
sponsibility, but we must be prepared
before the fire takes place. The repre-
sentative Of the Wisconsin Chemical Co.
will be here short time and if you are
not supplied with this king of Fire
Killers you had better be. Don't wait
for him to call on you; you call upon him
and learn particulars.

Few persons are aware of the value of
the imports of tropical and sub-tropical
products into the United States annual
ly. During the past fiscal year the mon
ely value of these importations was about
S320,O00,000. The largest item was, of
course, sugar, amounting in value to
more than $87,OOO,OO0, every cent of
which could be put into the pockets of
our farmers, and no doubt will be when

There was a time when Honolulu got
its share Of winter migrations and when
the unmistakable tourist, with the pug
garee on his new Panama hat, was rs
CONSPICUOUS between steamers as he
now is during the few hours a steamer
is in port. But our revolutions and
our little epidemics got in the way;
Southern California kept growing in in
terest and Importance and it easily
headed off the Honolulu bound tourist;
wars in the Orient interrupted through
travel; and since 1899. Cuba and Porto
Rico have become our strong rivals as
tropical resorts All these things, of
course. are serious drawbacks, but they
ought not to paralyze effort, as has
seemed lately to be the case, in reviving
an interest in Hawaii among those,
living not too far away. who seek relief
from cold winters or who want change
of scene
Every year the great West ought to
contribute crowds of tourists 10 these
islands. Eastern visitors TO the rain
swept and fog-belted streets of San
Francisco should supply us. There
should be many annual visitations from
the Sound. BY the right kind of ad-
vertising and by means of fair excur-
sion rates on the steamers, enough
tourists should be had to keep Homo
lulu on the crest of prosperity year in

means that we should be careful not
to arouse the animosity of every West
ern city by proclaiming the advantages
of Hawaii to settlers and real-estate
buyers Advertise it simply as a tropi-
cal lying-off place, inviting to the eye
and healthful to the system-and let
the home-seeker and Spectator take
care of themselves. They will go wher-
ever the crowd does without special
invitation.
Los Angeles was built up by persistent
advertising of it's attractions to tour

NOVEMBER.

The melancholy days are here
OF which the poets tell,
And by some never-failing signs,
We note their presence well.
In football games the lusty youth
Doth vigorously disport,
And strives to break his brothers neck
And kick him as he ought.
The horticultural freak is out
With an ultimatum,
Wherein he lies as to the size
OF a chrysanthemum.
But saddest yet of all the signs
Which mark these doleful days,
Are little bills for little things
For which one seldom pays
The grocer and the tailorman
Are ever lowering near, ss
These days are as the poet wrote
The saddest of the year.

Arthur Pue Gorman-A former Sena-
tor In Congress from MARYLAND. One
OF the brainiest men in the Democratic
party. A statesman Of the old school.
A polished gentleman. A gentleman
whose word Is as good as his bond A
man whose honesty has never been ques-
toned, either in public or private life.
Handsome in appearance. Quiet in
manner. Determined in purpose, and
Of indomitable courage. Loyal to his
friends and never unfair to an enemy.
In politics never afraid TO support a
cause which he believes to be right. By
far the best organizer IN the Democratic
party. He knows the politics of the
United States as well as any man in t.
A great student and man OF affairs in
general. In courtesy and kindness he
has no peer. He has served three terms
in the Senate of the United States, and
during that long period Of faithful SER
vice he committed no act that furnished
his good name. A despiser of shams
and the enemy of deception. Broad in
ihought; gentle but forceful in speech.
The Legislature to be elected next fall.
will choose a successor to Senator Well
ington. Mr.. Gormsn is the only gentle
man named by the Democratic party as
its candidate. There is every reason to
believe that his party will triumph, and
If so Mr.. German will re-enter public
life, where for eighteen years he was
one OF the most conspicuous members
on his political side. II reelected to
the Senate he will at once become q
most formidable candidate for the Demo
cratic nomination for the Presidency in
1904. And what a magnificent Presi-
dent he would make. There would then
be a man in the White House whose
party loyalty need not be questioned.
His record as public official stands be-
fore the people. 1t is without blemish.
There would be no back stairs for the
mugwumps. There would be no mid
night consultations with Wall street
bond buyers. Everything he did would
be done in the open. There would be
an honest administration of public az
fairs in every department of the Govern
ment. He would be fair to the opposite
party at all times. Keep your eye on
Mr.. German of Maryland.
