SCHOOLING NOT AN EDUCATION.

The too common belief that an educa-
ton can be acquired from textbooks
and from teachers who don't know any
more than the text-b books of the COM
mon schools contain, if that, is erro-
neous. Every boy and girl should have
a common school education. The State
provides for that, and therefore expects
1t even if it does not always compel it.
But there are other things essential.
A man may have an education and still
not be a respectable,a useful, much less
valuable member of the community
On the contrary, there are many mem
bers of the community who have very
little, If any, schooling who are useful
important, honorable. They have been
educated in other ways.

SOCIETY WOMEN IN POLITICS.

In spite of the fact tat Tammany
is credited with all kinds of wicked
ness and much CT it, fortune seems to
smile on Tammany. The forces ar
rayed against the organization seem
to be working in such a fashion as
to throw votes to its ticket, instead
of taking them away. It appears
that the society women of New York
have plunged into the principle cam
paIgn IN behalf of Seth Low, but
their methods of canvasslng are not
approved by Mr.. Lows managers.
The ladies held a mass meeting OF
their own the other day, and were
addressed by Justice Jerome, but the
address was very different from what
they expected to hear. He told them
IN very plain language that if they
did not want to give Tammany a
lead pipe cInch on the election il
would be we'll for them to at once
abandon their peculiar style of cam
pa1gn IN the tenement, district. Justice
Jerome said:
''Ihe people here have quite az
much pride as you have, and per.
haps know more about the issues
of the campaign than you do. You &C
down there in your carriage, with your
new fall bannet, and say: We're so in.
terested in good government. You
Will have your husband vote for Mr.
Low when he comes home, won't you!
Here are these tracts. I don't know
exactly what they are about, but they
will help you some Why, you lose
more votes in tenement houses in 6
day than we can make in a week" II
Justice Jerome is not careful he will
incur the hostility of the lady politi
clans and run ahead of his ticket.

SUCCESS ON THE FARM.

It is hundred times easier to sue
coed on she farm than in the towns and
cities, but the young men and young
.gomen can have more pleasure along
w. lasrlals of town life than in the
country, hence they go for this reason
TO the towns. If the young men and
the men that are raising their boys and
girls would look to the pleasure and
comfort of the young people, the exc
dus from the farms would cease. The
only way that an improvement can be
had in this direction is by conferences,
frequent meetings and general i'm
provement. Homes must be made at
tractive, instead of place to sleep and
eat, only to go again to toll. With half
the effort and energy it takes to sue
