Dcatll-In Wall Paper.

The general public, we fear, is
not acquainted with the dangers
arising from arsenic coloring mat-,
ter in wall paper. A recent death
in Palmer, Mass is directly attri-
buted, by the medical authorizes,
to this cause. The trouble which
resulted go disastrously made its
appearance a ycor and half ago
in what seemed to be nervous dys-
pepsia. Two months Of travel
abroad seemed to greatly improve
the pationt, but on returning home
grew worse again. On account Of
certain conflicting SYMPTOMS which
could not be readily accounted
for, specialist was called in and
gave it as his opinion that there
was aIsenic poisoning in the sys-
tenn. An Investigation was then
inado which resulted il the discov-
cry of arsenic colors in the wall
paper of tho sitting room. This
room had been papered shortly
previous to the appearance Of the
first syintoms. The wall paper
was at once removed, but the dis
case had by this time progressed
80 far that it was impossible to
cave the life Of the unfortunate
victim.

CHARACTER BUILDING
1 Anglo Saxon, Rockingham.

4 Il N THIS day of educational awak-
tut ening let our teachers not forget
that the child has character to train
as we'll as q mind. That fact is too
often forgotten in our schoo 8. The
average teacher takes very little time
instiiIing into the child the lunda.
mental principles of right and wrong.
tits taken for. granted that moral
training is not part Of a teachers
business, but is something belonging
to the home and Sunday school life
The trouble is, SO many children do
not get the right sort of training at
home either by precept or example.
and many Of them do not 60 to Sun
day School. Education of the char
acter is more important than educa-
tion of the mind. for what does;a
smart mali amount to without charac.
ter2 The time to build character is
& in childhood. IF a child is allowed to
grow up thinking it is all right to
cheat his PLAY mate in game of mar
bles or in swapping knives, he will
not be likely to sec any great wrong
in honest dealings of larger sort,
when he becomes man. Once start
ted of wrong he is hard to change
Started right he will nine to one
keep on right. Teachers should meyer
lose, an opportunity to point out the
right and the wrong to their pupils,
showing them the reason certain
thing is right aud something else
wrong, questioning them aud testing
their faculty for distinguishing be.
tween ri; LIT and wrong. We think it
would be eminently proper for school
authorities to require to be taught in
the publit school course in moral
philosophy or ethics. Some very SIM
pie and elementary work could be
adopted Us text book and certain
amount Of time each day devoted
to study.
What We need for the upbuilding
of the Stale and community is char
acter. The place to make il is the
school. Education without it is worth
less.

the company is organized for The
purpose Of notwithstanding lapor
boz quilts.
Paper bed Quilts is something
new nniler tho sun fi'ha iy,ea n
supposed to be entirely new.anu
original with these gentlemen and
apatent has been applied for. The
quilts are made Of. two sheets Of
crimped paper, with cloth outsides.
Simple. isn't it? And yet one Of
the three owners has been offered
$4,000 in cash for his third inter
est in the invention. The quilts
are absolutely air tight and are
aaid to be as warm or warmer than
q woolen blanket. The paper used
will be disinfccted and many promi-
nont physicians say they will be
more healthy than the quilts now
in use. The rustling noise notice
able about paper is absolutely done
away with by the use Of the crimp-
ed paper and when finished the
quilts are very plant and almost
as soft as wooden blankets. They
are to be quilted on a sewing ma
chine. The cost of manufacture
will be small and the quilts will
retail at from $3.50 to $50 per
dozen.
! The company has already Sc
cured a large number Of orders.
In order TO supply the immediate
wants of the trade the owners Of
the invention will at present hire
the quilts made, but it is their in
tention to erect q factory and es-
tablish plant as soon as the busi-
ness may require it.
