FEATURES OF EDUCATION.
Now the Exhibit at ST. Louis Will Ba
Distinctive From That at Any
Other Centennial.
By CLAUDE HI. WETMORE.

Education finds more recognition in
he Louisiana Purchase Exposition than
I'm any previous centennial celebration.
It is the keynote Of the great enter
prise, permeating every display. More
over, the idea in its abstract has home
Of it's own, in that for the first time in
history the appliances of school life are
shown in a building constructed ex-
clusively for this purpose.
At Chicago and at Paris this exhibit
was made a department Of something
housed in palace which many con-
slider the most perfect intellectually
of any on the grounds.
Besides, In the classification of ex-
hibits education leads all others, taking
rank over fine arts, manufacture and
all the industries.
In remarking these facts visitors have
added that it was strange such promi-
hence had not been given to education
before, and they are loud in their praise
Of those who have carried the idea sc
prominently to the front.

Formerly it was deemed sufficient to
arrange in booths samples Of text books
and of apparatus Of the laboratory and
observatory. Appliances used in the
schoolroom were displayed convention
ally, and visitors could pass through
aisle after aisle and view only the
technicalities of the world Of instruc
ton. AS a result the pedagogue only
was interested.
In st. Louis, however, there is to be
actual demonstration of the use made
Of all such appliances, and the multi
tude will find itself entertained. Thus
the model training school will be a
creature of life-bOys to be seen using
the tools Of the various trades Pupils
/ of a school for the blind will demon
strate the methods in vogue where the
sense of touch is made to supply that
of sight, and those who are deaf and

Colds Cause Pneumonia

One Of the most remarkable cases
OF cold deep-seated on the lungs,
causing pneum )nia, is that of Ger
trude E. Fenner, Marion, Ind. who
was entirely cured by. the use of
One Minute Cough Cure, She says:
The coughing and straining SO
weakened me that I ran down in
weight from l48 to 81 pounds I tried
a number of remedies to no avail un-
til used One Minute Cough Cure.
-Four bottles of this wonderful RENE
dy cured me entirely OF the cough,
strengthened my lungs and restored
me to my normal weight, helth and
strength Sold by Fox Bros.
