The Problem of Coeducofion.

In an that is said at university COM
merit more serious attention than the
references to coeducat.on VIII oh occur
in the annual report read by Dr.. Bon
bright at Northwestern. The Evan
ston institution is not one from which
we should expect to hear any doubts as
to the advisability of the system 1t
has been thoroughly commi tel to I
and one OF its most conspicuous ex-
emplars. Yet DR.. Bonbright exclaims:
Is the system OF coeducation in
Northwestern Univers ty still on trial? ?
Perhaps!
The facts here, as at Stanford seem
to show that it is a system which can
not be kept in state of equilibrium,
because the phenomena of the high
schools are repeated at the univ rsi
ties. The latter tend to become girls
colleges. In ten years, for example,
the girls attendance at Northwestern
has increased from SO per cent to near
ly so per cent, and this year tho e
are more young women t an un
men in the graduating class. The gen
eral tendency has been iIcr ase1 b.
the policy of encouI aging gifts for der
mitories for the young women in pref
erence to the young men, and DR.. Bon
bright suggests that the girls enroll
ment should be limited by the capacity
Of the dormitories.

P6ifddeIpbia'S Metz cOakener.
A useful adjunct to the parapher-
MALTA at one of the Philadelphia hos
pitfalls is known as 1.-The awakener."
This is wooden paddle about two feet
long, designed to restore conscious
ness to patients who have either taken
poison or who have lapsed into a
comatose condition from the effect Of
too much liquor This little instrument
is decorated with such legends as "The
way OF the transgreSSOr Is hard"
"Slumber, sweet slumber, nit!" and
similar sentences purporting to be in
a jocular vein. 1.-The awakener" is used
upon the soles of patients feet. The
shoes and stockings are removed. and
then the paddle is applied with full
force. Most Of the patients respond
to this treatment within 10 minutes,
but sometimes, where drugs have been
used, 1.-The awakener" is kept busy for
an hour or even longer

There Is aA unusually quiet citizen
up near the crown Of Piety hill who Is
just now thinking great deal OF him
self. One Of his neighbors has three
PCT dogs. When separated they are
well behaved and considerate to
strangers, but when together they
seem to regard it as an imperative
duty to try to eat any agent or other
strange caller at the house. After they
had bitten three little children belong
ing to the quiet citizen, torn his wife's
best gown, and snapped at him while
he crossed the lot, he decided that duty
as husband and father called for ac-
ton on his part. One evening he
reached the house with a bulldog, bred
in the purple, and much to be admired
because he was % excruciadngly ugly.
In few days he followed his master
wherever he went. Thus assured, the
man made call on his neighbor with
the three pets. The French bull want
ed to play, and cut great antics In
trying to entice the trio into the game.
They Just snarled, showed their teeth
and darted at him when the opening
seemed favorable. Finally he was Bit
ten on the end OF his stub tail by the
Scotch terrier, and be made a rush
that his master checked in time. Let
him co." urged the host Hes not
dangerous. and the dogs can take care
Of themselves. I'll be responsible"
The quiet man demurred until the pets
were charging right into his lap after
their prey, when he let go as II to
protect himself The imported cyclone
had the air full Of dogs for about three
minutes There was a continuous
crash Of brie-a-brac, all the light fur
niture was dancing. the host was kick
Ing about wildly, and the quiet man
was making an admirable bluff 1T try
ing to restrain his property When
the entertainment was over the sitting
room looked like junk shop. The
neighbors had some little argument
about whether the bull pup should be
killed on the spot, and when the quiet
man left he went out backward, eau
tioning his neighbor in a low tone Of
voice not to do anything rash. The
neighbor has given away two OF his
pets, and advertised for one OF these
fighting white bulldogs with pink eyes.

Cbe Practice OF Lying.

The London Spectator has been
studying the question of lying, and
finds that there is no sign of decay OF
the practice More than this 1t de-
clares that lying is necessary for the
happiness and comfort of civilized peo-
pie. stating its position thus:
In the matter of true speaking, as
in wine drinking, no one can define
what moderation means. though we all
believe that in our own persons we
Illustrate the word. But granting this
vague moderation, We are prepared 10
maintain that a certain number OF
false formulas are necessary for the
defense and maintenance of the spirit
OF sincerity and truth. We all have
entered into tacit agreement that
under certain circumstances we will
deceive each other for our common
comfort. and if any large number OF
people took to avoiding these defen-
sive forms and spoke on all occasions
nothing but the naked truth the social
world would have to be made over
again, and we think that the new one
would be worse and less Ingenious
than that in which we live"
