the parents of the young couple had
to their marriage was that occa-
stoned by their extreme youth.

BLAMED LOSS ON SHERIDAN.

the New Yorker. ANY one who de-

A NEW ELlNIR.

Thomas A. Edison, jr.. seems des,
tined to prove a greater man than his
father. He has discovered an elixir
that is said to be a specific for many of
the ills flesh is heir to. A dispatch
from New York says:
No discovery in modern times has
ever aroused one~half the interest that
is now being evinced in young Edison's
invention. 1t is pointed out by scien-
lists that the Magno- Electric Vitalizer
is the most powerful and remarkable
curative force in existence today.
There seems to be no limit either to
its powers or its possibilities.
1T is equally adapted to the relief
of the most complex disorders of the
nerves., such as ervou prostration or
paralysis; to the cure of diseases of
the blood, such as rheumatism, catarrh
Il malaria; to lung and respiratory
complaints like consumption and asth-
ma; to digestive troubles, such as dys-
pepsia and malnutrition; to the various
organic and intestinal conditions which
result in Bright's disease and appendi-
citis. as we'll as the many circulatory
defects that are evidenced by heart dis
ease and failing strength. In fact, say
the scientists, the Vitalizer fully mer.
its the name Mr.. Edison has bestowed
upon it, for it stores up and communi
Gates vitality.
Much of young Mr.. Edison's pres
n popularity is undoubtedly due tc
the fact that he has resolutely refused
to allow his invention to be exploited
by persons who would be likely to re-
gard 1t more as a commercial PROPOSE,
ton thar as an opportunity to relieve
the sufferings of humanity. He has
placed a price upon the Vitalizer only
sufficient to cover the cost of manu-.
facture. and is distributing it only
through his own ompany
When Mr.. Edison was seer in his
laboratory yesterday he said:
"'Usually I do not are to talk about
my work, but in the matter of the vi.
talizer l feel that a duty and response.
bility has been laid upon me and that
the public should be allowed to know
that pain and sickness can, at last, be
banished from the earth. It has been
my life long ambition to create some
thing that should give happiness to the
world, and I feel now that | have sue
ceeded.
Several attempts have been made
to induce me to sell the Vitalizer to
promoters, but l feel that if | did so |
should not be doing my duty to humani-
ty. There has been bestowed upon me

THE NEW EDUCATIONAL SCHEME

The principle involved in the new de
parture which Mr.. John ID. Rockefeller
has taken with reference to donations
for educational purposes is a sound
one. He is understood to be the NOV,
ing spirit behind the bill which has
passed both houses of congress for the
incorporation of Il general education
board. with headquarters at Washing
ton, whose field OF labor will be the ad-
vancement in different ways of popu-
lar education and towards which he
will give a sum ~variously stated at be
tween fifty and a hundred millions,
The details of the scheme include the
equipment of primary. normal. and
training schools; the addition to them
where needed OF libraries. workshops.
and other accessories: the employment
of teachers and lecturers; the cndow-
mCnt of educational institutions, the
creation of new profrssOrships the or
ganization of scholarships for needy
students; and other measures in the
interest of the extension of education.
Such an educational clearing
d~iciously administered should be pro
ductlve of great good. 1t is a hopeful
feature of the scheme hat ii does not
contemplate the organization of new
institutions hut rather the strengthen.
ing of those already in existence which
may need help. In the last ten years
nearly $500. OOO. 600 has bccn given to
colleges and universities either by per,
sonal donation or by bequcst, and of
this sum a considerable portion has
been given for the erection of new in,
stitutions. This is poor economy. and
il fairly may be questioned whether. in
the end, as good results can be secured
as by the Strengthening of institutions
already in operation. Scattered all
over the country. and especially in the
south, there are excellent schools and
colleges which barely manage by rigid
economy and small salaries to get
along. Their existence is a continu-
Gus struggle which must interfere with
their usefulness. Even in the east
there are some old and well known col
leges which are prevented by lack of
funds from doing the work they are
competent to do.
There is another feature of this
scheme which is of high Importance to
education. 1t does not contemplate to
any considerable extent the purchase
of real estate or the erection of build,
ings for educational institutions, there
by making them land and building
poor. but rather the provision of funds
for running expenses and for actual
maintenance. In almost every case
where a large donation has been made
to a college it has been for buildings.
This is natural. perhaps. because the
donor likes to see a handsome building
standing as a monument to his gener-
osity, whereas the appropriation Of his
iiioiies ii paying sai"iies anu LuSet'
ing running expenses is not monument
al in any sense. Fortunately, Mr..
Rockefeller, having erected his monu
ment on the Chicago Midway, has
money enough left to help the general
operating expense of education all owe
the country. In the end that will be
the greatest monument to his generosi-
