Teachers Must Teach.

The teacher must teach more, and
know more; he must be living foun-
tain. not stagnnnt pool. He should
not be n dentcr In desicatcd, second
hand knowledge, n mere glver-out and
hearer of lessons. That Is the chief
and humillating difference between
our secondary teachers and those
abroad, who are mostly doctors of
philosophy, as they should be. II we
could move many university profes-
sors to the high school, many high
school teachers TO the grammar school
and some grammar school teachers,
with at least sprinkling of college
graduates, In to the kindergarten, II
would do much. In the German and
French school the teacher Is the one
who knows a great deal about his
subject and Is nearer to original sour
ces, who tells the great truths of the
sciences almost like stories, and who
does affect the airs and methods of the
university professor. Very many sec
ondary teachers are masters and au.
thOrltics. Here, most of our universi
ty pedagogy is mere device for 50
influencing high-schOol principals and
teachers as to cOrrelate curricula, in
order TO corral in students. and littl,
interest Is taken in the grammar
grades, and none in the kindergarten

The only way to render n person
unconscious by the use of chloroform
is in the way practiced by surgeons
In the operating room. And this is
by no means an easy task. There are
several ways of doing IT, The chloro-
form may be dropped on handler-
chief, which Is then held over the
face at some little distance. or it may
be dropped on sponge, or 1t may he
used In one of the innumerable ma
chimes invented for the purpose. But
the vapor must be mixed with air be-
fore It IL breathed. That Is the rca-
son the handkerchief or the sponge
is held some inches from the face. As
rule, IL takes from five to eight
minutes to make the person uncon-
scious, and during this time lie gem
orally struggles very violently.
1t is probable that many of the
charges of chloroformlng which have
been made are false. Sometimes the
pretended victim asserts that he has
become unconscious Immediately. But
Il has been shown in evidence that the
time necessary to bring about this re-
suit is mt least four or five minutes.
Sometimes he says he could not cry
out: yet lie describes all the circum-
stances of the administration minute
ly. Now, the first effect of the chloro-
form is TO produce confusion of the
mind, while, on the other hand, the
patient can cry out almost IN TO the
last. He becomes mentally confused
before he loses the power Of speech.
These few facts are sufficient perhaps
to demonstrate that some charges of
possible chloroforming are necessarily
untrue.-London Mail.

The Meaning of n Trademark.

In case recently decided by the
United States Supreme Court, cover
ing the trademark laws of the coun-
try, Chief Justice Miller delivered the
opinion, in the course of which he
called attention to several salient
points. Attention was first called to
the early use of the term trademark"
and its meaning as n distinctive mark
OF authenticity, through which the
products of particular manufacturers
or the vendible commodities of certain
merchants may be distinguished from
those of others.
A trademark may consist of any
symbol or any form of words, but as
its office is to point out distinctively
the origin or ownership of the articles
to which 1t is affixed, it follows that
no sign or form of words can be APP
propriated as valid trademark
which, from the nature of the fact con-
veyed by it's primary meaning, others
may employ with equal truth, and
with equal right for the same purpose.
A general rule has been established
to the effect that words that do not
in and of themselves indicate any
thing in the nature Of origin, manu-
facture or ownership, but are merely
descriptive of the place where an
article is manufactured or produced,
cannot be monopolized as a trade
mark.

Sir Henry Poland, British magis-
trate noted for his brilliancy, is care
less in his dress. Once his family per-
suaded him to go to Poole and order
a fashionably cut suit. To the chagrin
of the household Sir Henry looked
more outlandish in the new clothes
than in his old ones. His brother-in-
law went to see Poole about it. at is

him. Every care was taken. but how
could We fit n gentleman who would
insist upon being measured sitting

space at the rate of 10000 miles an
hour, but no one can tell whence it

Home FertiIizers and Fertility.


The main thing in farming is keep
ing up the fertility of the soil while
annually gathering crops from it. If
the soil degenerates just little each
year 1t must be only short time be-
fore bankruptcy must stare the farm
er in the face unless he makes sutli-
cient profits from his crops to lay aside
something. But even this Is poor
policy. That effort should be made
to maintain the fertility of the soil up
to high standard. This Is Just as
important as It is for business man
to keep good stock of goods on hand,
and not let his business run down
through lack of good plant.
Soil fertility is question intimate
ly connected with the question OF
home fertilizers. The farmer cannot
depend upon commercial fertilizers to
supply his plants with food. They
may help at certain times, and add to
the land particular ingredients that
are lacking, but they can never take
the place Of home fertilizers. Barn
yard manure and green fertilizers
must always be the chief dependence
of the farmer for enriching his soil.
Contained In these are all the elements
needful to make plants thrive. They
vary in different foods, and their pro-
portions are sometimes not all that we
need. One soil may become deficient
in nitrogen. phosphoric acid or potash,
and sufficient OF the proper element
cannot be supplied with the natural
manures. 1t is then that an applica-
tion of artificial fertilizers will ever
keep soil up to the proper standard.
We may stimulate the plants for a
few seasons, and think that we are
performing wonders, but we are doing
1t at the cost of soil fertility. Sooner
or later We will discover that the soil
has become thin and worthless, with
hardly sufficient strength to grow a
blade OF grass, and then we may real
lie that we have been raising crops on
stimulants. We may as well attempt
to fatten and strengthen man on al
coholic drinks, which do for a time
stimulate the body and muscles to un-
usual performances.
The backbone of our farming is
barnyard manure and green fertiliz-
ers. Plow these under every year in
sufficient quantities, and the heaviest
crops can be raised with at injuring
the land. Then, wher needed, dress
the land with artificial fertilizers to
add nitrogen, potash or phosphoric
acid, as the case may need. Some
crops absorb more of one of these ele-
ments than others, and 1t is essential
to know which is being used In excess
OF others.-C. l.. Mason. New Jersey.

Alaska in Touch with the World.

before the completion of the wagon
road the telegraph facilities over the
entire distance from the Gulf of Alas
ka to the Yukon will be in operation.

Glover char as n Fertilizer.

I had lot OF clover chaff and damp
moulded clover which could not be
hulled. l hauled this out onto some
poor sandy soil on hill side and put
1t on as heavily as possible for the
wheat to grow up through. Near 1t
/ sowed or drilled some commercial
fertilizer for experiment at the rate
of eighty to 120 pounds per acre. L
sowed this across the land over sew
eral kinds of soil. / watched this
through the winter and noticed that
the cloyered wheat was great deal
thrlftier and greener than the sur
rounding wheat. At cutting time the
difference was still there, but we
could not tell where we had sown the
fertilizer. The points l gathered are,
first, fertilalng; second, mulching, re-
tanning the moisture in the sand third,
protecting ground from washing;
fourth, seeding ground to clover Had
n good set of clover; good because it
was protected; clover sown on rest of

first and spread the chaff over. / also
