An educational reform movement Il
In progress. II Is encouraging to note
that there Is decided effort in the
with nature.
One OF the objective points in true
educational system must be to open
the eyes of the child to see the won
der:ul things that are happening in
the nature world about him, and to
discern the divine Intelligence which
works In every leaf and flower, in ev-
cry passing cloud. In every ray OF
light.
Vacation periods might be most
probably spent In regular, organized.
systematic out-of-door study, Such 4
use OF vacation days would be far
more profitable than aimless sport
Part Of the time might be spent in
vigorous exercise, or labor calculated
to encourage bodily development. EN-
posture to life In the air has most
beneficial effect upon the growing
child.
Every child ought to be taught TO
swim. Swimming schools should be
connected with every public school /;
also an outdoor gymnasium. In which
the children may expose a large part
Of their bodies to the action Of the
suns rays. BY this means only can
the skin be made vigorous and
healthy. A healthy skin Il the best
possible protection against disease OF
the lungs and other internal organs.
In summer time the child should
spend every moment possible In the
great outof-doors, absorbing life and
energy from the living world abou,
him.

CARE OF THE BODY
: How to Acquire and Retain the Priceless Posses
sion of Good Health

is perfectly proper. but it should ex.
tend to the whole body
A course of life which will produce
health and activity Of the whole skin
will necessarily result in a beautiful
facial complexion. There is In fact
no way BY which the skin of the face
can be made so certainly and perman-
emily beautiful as by adopting such a
regimen as shall bring about health
to the whole skin.
For this the daily bath, followed by
adequate rubbing. is one of the most
essential measures. A warm bath
taken at night two or three times q
week, and cold plunge, sponge,
spray. or shower bath every morning.
Ia practise which has a wonderful
power as beautifier. The cold morn.
ing bath. followed by vigorous walk
In the cool. refreshing morning air for
fifteen or thirty minutes will bring
color to the cheeks and brightness to
the eyes more rapidly than any tonic
known to the materia medica.
Thin features. pale lips, yellow
teeth. dull eyes. sallow skin. be,oken-
ing premature decay. are not by any
means. as is usually supposed. the re-
suit of overwork or overstudy. but
rather of reglect to cultivate health
by correct habits OF eating, drinkir =

NO CLASSES IN AMERICA.
Attempt TO Import Cheap Labor
eeau9ht With Great Danger.

The equality that Is the ideal OF
American politics Is not an equality
Of possession. character or ability.
Men are not created equal In those
things and no amount Of Legislation
can make them so. But every Amert-
can citizen ought to have. ~ near n
possible, an equal opportunity to make
the most OF what there Is In him. for
the benefit Of himself and the nation.
and every American citizen ought to
be equal before the laws.
And yet there are men that claim
that Chinese lab0rers should be
brought into this country. to do the
work that cannot be done by Ameri.
can citizens. and they would thus es.
tablish permanently in this country .
class OF inferior iaborers- that are not
on an equality with other residents Of
the great Republic.
Such an experiment Is q dangerous
one. and II should not be tried.
1t Ii far better that the fruit OF the
California orchards should rot upon
the ground rather than Introduce Ia
borers that are willing to accept
wages that are less than what Is nee.
essary to support self.respecting
American citizen.
Experience mas snOWu IN eastern
states that even the cheapest OF Eu.
ropean laborers bring with them the
germs Of ambition and self respect.
or quickly acquire them in this At.
mosphere of freedom. Even the white
contract laborer that Is brought to this
country IN defiance Of the law
quickly learns to suit his demands to
the conditions he sees about him and
every attempt to bring up . con
tented" laborinG class on pauper
wages has been . failure.
The claim that the Chinaman will

can will do IL beng urged As q reason

TUBERCULOSIS NOT AEREplrAa,
Children Become Infected BY Well.
Meaning But ignorant Parents.


DR.. s. A. Knopf. who Is an authority
on the subject OF tuberculosis, consid.
ers that the popular notion concerning
hereditary consumption is absolutely
erroneous. The child II usually In
fected by weli.meaning but ignorant
parents after birth. The most COM
mon modes of Infection are the fol-
lowing: The consumptive mother
caresses the child. and kisses 1t on
the mouth; she prepares the food.
tasting 1t. to Judge its temperature and
flavor, through the same rubber nip
pie or with the same spoon the child
uses and thus unconsciously conveys
the germs OF her disease from her own
mouth to that OF the child. Later on
the child will play on the floor OF the
room. and should there be a consump-
tive In the family who. from careless
ness or ignorance, is careless in the
disposal OF his expectoratiOn, the child
Is indeed likely to be infected. The
little one. while playing on the floor.
may very easily inhale the bacilli
floating In TIE dust in the air. and can
thus acquire tuberculosis by inhala-
ton. Again. the little child touches
everything 1t can take hold Of. infect
ing its fingers thoroughly, and by put
ting them in its mouth, tuberculosis
by ingestion may result. and gradual
~ develop into consumption Of the
bowels. Lastly. should the child's
nails be neglected 1t may scratch It.
self with the infected fingers. and tu-
beroulosis Of the skin. or lupus. may
result from such an unfortunate acct
dent"
Precautionary Measures.
To prevent these infections during
childhood. DIR. Knopf recommends the
following precautions: Not only
should consumptIves be religiously
careful with their expectations. but
they should associate as little as pos
sible with young children. and stay
away from playrooms and Fairgrounds.
Kissing children on the mouth should
never be allowed. and the little ones
should be taught never to kiss or be
kissed by strangers. The floor on
which the child plays should be kept
scrupulously clean. Carpets In such 4
place are an abomination; they only
serve as dust and dirt collectors and
not ipfreQuently harbor the germs OF
contagious diseases. The hands and
nails OF little children should be kept
a. clean as possible.
Although tuberculosis is not heredi.
tary. . tendency or predispositlon To
the disease may be inherited. This
condition may be overcome by ju'
dicious training. proper food. plenty OF
outdoor exercise. and the avoidance OF
all excesses. All predisposed individu.
ais should dress senslbly and accord
Ing 10 the season. Never should they
wear garments which restrict clrcuia
tion or hinder the free action OF the
chest or abdomen. Tightly laced cor.
SETS tight neckwear. tight shoes. are
all particularly dangerous to the indi
ls.l. nal
