THE KINDERGARTEN COLLEGE.
Movement Started to Provide for It's
Future Maintenance.

Mrs Phoebe A. Hearst, who for eight
years has borne the entire expense of the
kindergarten College founded by her. has
decided to withhold further money supplies.
This decision is regarded as meaning
loss to the entire city. The college is claim
ed to be doing live work in direct touch
with the greatest educators and educa tional
centers of this country, and, it Is asserted,
is fully equipped to meet the needs Of
teachers and students in many lines of
study. DIR. Harriss, United States COM
missioner of education, says that the loss
of the college will be public calamity and
in this opinion he is supported by Comms-
sioner Mcfarland, Mr.. Carroll d. Wright
and Superintendent Stuart of the District
public schools. Since the introduction Of
the kindergarten system into the public
schools. the college has supplied a ma
jority of the teachers engaged In the work,
the thoroughness of the course rendering
them exceptionally competent. Miss Susan
E. Blow, the well-known kindergartener,
has always been in close connection with
the college.
A large and enthusiastic meeting was
held at the college. 1915 X street Monday,
at which Mr.. Herbert D. Welsh of Phila-
delphia presided. Under his direction. an
association formed, and committees
were organized for the purpose of raising
an endowment fund to provide for the
maintenance of the work. 1t is desired to
that before long the college will have be-
come a much greater institution than II
has been hitherto
Among those interested in furthering the
cause are Mrs. Fairfax Harrison, Mrs. Cliff
ford Barney Mrs. Boardman. Miss Hitch
cock, Mrs. L. o. Howard and Mrs. Grace
Gallaudet Kendall.
TO bring the matter more actively before
the public mass meeting will be held at
an early date. Notice of this will be given
later.

APPENDICITIS.
The Most Dreaded Disease
of Civilization

is the condition known as appendicitis. Once fully
established, nothing will remedy but the cold
knife. 1t has once been thought that this infam-
nation was caused by seeds or foreign bodies en-
tering the appendix, but this theory Is long ex-
ploded.
The true cause Of appendicitis is sluggishness Of
the bowels, constipation and the gases which are
formed In consequence produce germs known TO the
scientific physician the Bacilli Coli Commensis.
Now, to avoid this formation Of gas germs, consti-
patton and the resulting Inflammation take Smith
Pineapple and Butternut Pills, which have been
tested in all the various diseases Of the stomach,

ate control of American consumers

ate control of = American consumers
and American markets for all time to
come. The tariff might be considered
an exception to the rule that the party
is on both sides of every question, but
even this is not so. While brueally
standing pat on measure Of extor-
tion which was dictated by the mono
polists, it yet holds out the hope to
the disaffected that it will be modified
by its friends whenever it is neces-
sary. With its broken pledge as to
reciprocity extending over seven years,
it still PROCESSES that it is the great
and only friend of reciprocity.
In another matter the claim of the
Republican textbook is grossly incon-
sistent. It claims to have made the
country prosperous by the enactment
of protected tariff the proof of which
is found in the great rise in prices
that has occurred since 1897. But
with singular Inconsistency this same
Republican campaign book says that
ssthe claim that the protective tariff
increases prices is met with facts and
figures from the economic history OF
the United States and other countries
which fully show the inaccuracy OF
the charge This is, the Republl-
can party is on both sides OF this
question, It went to the monopollsts
and offered to sell them for suffi-
cheney OF campaign funds to put it into
power a tariff law that would enable
them to exact millions from consum-
ers in increased prices of the neces-
saries of life. This pledge was kept,
but it was not made to the people,
but to the trusts. Having put up the
prices Of trust-made articles, and get
credit for it as promoting prosperity,
it now says that the position that pro-
lection increases prices is false, and
seeks tc, prove it by the economic his
tory of the country. Eight years ago
when it was claimed that the gold
standard made prices low, the Repub-
licans said it was the progress OF in
vention, the Improvements in machin-
cry, the application of improved pro-
eesses that had cheapened many goods,
and this was true. But now when
high prices, instead of low prices, are
the subject of complaint, they say it
is the tariff that makes prices low.
Here they are distinctly on both sides
of the question. For the seller they
make prices high and they make them
low for the buyer, and all by the de-
yiceNof a monopoly tariff. In seek
ing to capture votes, they are all
things to all men, but consistent in
nothing except their devotion to the
trusts on which they rely for the means
of ruption.

THE DAGUERREOTYPE.
Odd Notions Concerning the Process
When 1t Was New.

Many amusing remarks were made
at the doors of caguerreotype galleries
when they We're first opened in this
country. \ small frame containing q
Dozen specimens would draw q crowd.
One man would undertake to describe
now they We're made. You look in the
machine. and the picture comes-f you
3oos long enough" Another would
say: 1t is not SO much the looking that
does it. The sun burns it in if YOU
keep still" Another l:.ade it all very
plain by stating. The plate is Il look
ing glass. and w!,e: You sit in front OF
It ycur shadow sticks on the plate"
How it came about was never
known. but the impression became
general that the sitter must not wink.
No operator Of intelligence ever told
the sitter not to wink. for the effort to
refrain would have given the eye an
unnatural expression. We found it a
duty to tell the sitter to wink as usual;
that natural winking did not affect the
picture Even then it was not always
understood One old lady jumped out
of the chair before a sitting was half
over. raising both hands and exclaim-
Ing: Stop it. stop it, winked!'
Another remarkable fact was that
sitters seldom acknowledged their own
hkenesses All good but mine" was
the common decision. An aged couple
after examining their pictures came to
this conclusion. Maria. yours is per-
feet. but this does not look like me-"
But the old lady answered. "Jeems.
yours is us natural as life. but mine is
a failure" After Il longer consultation
the old gentleman said. I'VE must
snow each other better than we know
ourselves" At one time when Daniel
Webster sat for q daguerreotype the
finished picture was held before him.
Turning away. he said:i''I am not to
judge Of my own looks. 1t is for you
to judge. and you must decide whether
the work is worthy Of your reputa-
ton."-A. Bogardus in Century.

on BOTH SIDES Of EVERYTHING EVERY THING.
The Republicans Ably Consistent
iaTheir Devotioa TO The Trust
on Which They Rely for the
Means of Corruption.
From the Louisville Courier-Journal.

From the Louisville Courier Journal.
OF course the Republican campaign
textbook for 1904 claims everything
and claims it.exultingly. 1t is part
of the unwriten law of the Rep hlican
party to claim to be the senior partner
in the firm that sends she refreshing
dew, the early and the late rain, which
makes the deserts blossom and the
waste places glad.
The four facts with which the
book starts are not facts at all, but
are either outrageous fctions or half
truths, intended to mislead. The first
is that the party's pledge of 1895 has
been redeemed; but that pledge was in
favor of international bimetallism.
The second allegation is that prosperi-
~ has come as result Of the redemp-
tion of pledge, and here the refer
ence is to the tariff. The party prom
ised tariff that would afford sufficient
revenue, but the Dingley tariff was
followed by asdefcit, until re-enforc-
ed by the war revenue bill and a loan
of $500, 0o0, 900. AS to prosperity, that
was beginning to return before the
Republicans got into power. But Re-
publican pledges to put the money on
Z q satisfactory basis satisfactory from
the standpoint Of their own experts
and oficials-has never been dehantiy
ignored. The reference to the issues
of 1895 is intended to mislead by hold
ing ont the idea that the main issue OF
that year is still confronting us, which
is VIGOROUSLY untrue. There is a
fourth FACT, vaguely stated as to con-
ditions that. have come to other parts
Of the world from Republican policy,
but it may be said that our policy can
not properly be directed to other parts
of the world, but should be for our
own benefit, and it is besides hard to
understand how this can be mention
ed as fact. So far from the Repub-
iican policy being definite and out
spoken, il is hating and insincere in
every particular. The regulation of
combines intended to create mono
poles, genrally called trusts, is an
important question. The Republican
party processes to be their enemy, yet
It was put into power by them and is
maintained there by their contribu-
tions. 1t passed a Tariff Act made
by and for the trusts, and it stands
pat upon it. At the same time it
winks the other eye and conveys to
the trusts tie intimation that it must
seem to intend to regulate them,
otherwise an indignant and defrauded
people will sweep It from power. The
trusts understand this, and cheerfully
consent to the insincere war intended
for no other purpose than to perpetu.
