ercise, excess of social engagements, and too close application to
music as well as the regular studies, may well be mentioned as proper
subjects for investigation. Personally cannot imagine any kind Of
education, whether literary, musical dramatic or artistic, which will
in any way compensate for the appalling number Of cases of nervous
prostration."
Education ought to be not a series of historical attempts to GIN
ish' large numbers OF subjects, but an orderly and sane development
OF the highest possibilities of the individual resulting in the greatest
atainable usefulness. Consequently, it is my firm belief that require,
ments for admission to college must be, sooner or later, considerably
modified, in the interests of sound scholarship and good health. There
is much evidence to show that the average girl has to work harder to
get into college creditably than she has to work after she is admitted
If this is so, must there not be something wrong about the entrance
requirements? Ought young girls to be subjected to discipline so
rigid in so many subjects, only to be given a lighter burden, when
more capable Of bearing a heavier one? If the lighter burden is the
proper one, as it undoubtedly is, why not give girls in the preparatory
schools the benefit of it?
We have had committees of ten and committees of II, but what
we need is a committee on the education Of women. Such a commit
tee might we'll be intrusted with the confessedly delicate task of .ascer-
tanning what sort or sorts of preparatory and collegiate education is
most likely to result in the preservation of the character, the intel
lectual force, the physical health, the practical efficiency and the charm
of American women.
Furthermore, / venture the prophecy that such a committee would
make many recommendations so
as to be startling: L4A- AA@, Z@<<~.

PAIN IN THE JOINTS

The first sign of rheumatism is fire.
quently q pain and swelling in II Of
the joints. If not combated i'll the
blood, which is the seat of the disease,
the poison spreads, affecting other joints
and tissues. Sometimes rheumatism at
tacks the heart and is quickly fatal.
The one remedy that has cured
rheumatism so that it stays cured is DR..
Williams Pink Pills. These pills expel
the poison from the blood and restore
the system, so that the poisonous matter
Is passed off as nature intended.
Mrs. L. T. Pitcher, of No. $50 Mon.
mouth street. Newark. N. j., suffered
for about three years from rheumatism
before she found this cure. She says:

fingers. In a little time it seemed as
though the finger joints had humps on
them and I could not get my gloves OH.
"Then it grew worse and spread to
my knees. 1 could not stand up and I
could not sleep nights. My suffering
was more than I can describe. / took q
great deal of medicine, but nothing even
gave me relief until / tried DIR. Williams

Mr.. Pitcher, who is a veteran aid a
member of f. D. Morgan Post, No. 307

II YOUNG IDEA.

The teacher wished to impress the
idea of the wrong of idleness. He led
up to it by asking who were the per-
sons who got all they could and did
nothing in return. For some time
there was silence, but at last a little
girl exclaimed, with a good deal Of
confidence: please. sir, it's the baby!"
A discussion of the word hyphen
was being held in a school. Give me
some word Joined together by a n.y.
phen," said the teacher to the class.
Among others came the word bird
cage. YES" said the teacher, land
who do we put a hyphen between bird
and cage"" For the bird to sit on"
answered one of the boys, promptly.
A school-teacher instructing her
classes in grammar wrote this sen
tence on the board for correction:
1.-THE horse and the cow is in the lot"
No one seemed to know what was
wrong with it. till at last a polite little
boy raised his hand. What is 1t,
johnny" asked the eacher. "You
should put the lady first" corrected
Johnny.
A Boston public school-teacher was
trying to give her pupils a definite idea
of a volcano. With red chalk she drew
on the blackboard fiery flames issuing
from a mountain top. When the draw
ing was done she turned to the class
before her, and said: Can any of you
tell me what that looks like?" at
looks like hell, ma'am," replied n of
the youngsters, with startling prompt
ness.
In England elementary schools are
organized for girls" or for infants"
OF late years the mixed" system has
been introduced, and many Of the
schools have been organized as
Senior" or Junior" mixed. An in
spector recently met on the school
stairs a little nondescript in a pima
fore, and asked: Come. what are
you doing here? Are you in the boys
or the girls?" "No, SIR" said the
small one. I'm a iunior Mixed"

THE LITTLE WIDOW.
A Mighty Good Sort of Neighbor to
Have.

"A little widow, a neighbor Of mine,
persuaded me to try Grape-Nuts when
my stomach was SO weak that it would
not retain food of any other kind"
writes a grateful woman, from San
Bernardino Co, Cal.
Il had been i'll and confined to my
bed with fever and neryous prostration
for three long months after the birth
of my second boy. We were in despair
until the little widows advice brought
relief.
Il liked Grape-Nuts food from the be-
ginning, and In an incredibly short
time 1t gave me such strength that !
was able 10 leave my bed and enjoy
my three good meals a day. In 2
months my weight increased from 95
to lis pounds, my nerves had steadied
down, and | felt ready for anything.
My %neighbors were amazed to see me
gain SO rapidly. and still more so
when they heard that Grape-Nuts alone
had brought the change.
my 4-year-old boy had eczema, very
bad. last spring. and lost his appetite
entirely, which made him cross and
peevish. put him on a diet of Grape
Nuts, which he relished at once. He
improved from the beginning, the &C.
Eema disappeared, and now he is fat
and rosy, with a delightfully."- soft, clear
skin. The Grape-Nuts diet did it. 1

established by the State Federation of Women'S Clubs in Syracuse. A
charmlngy gowned, pleasant voiced member rises and addresses the
club on the Joy OF being useful, the exquisite pleasure to be secured
from helping the less fortunate of our own sex, the old moral OF bread
cast upon the waters. What happens? Mrs. Jones whispers to Mrs.
Brown that her new hat is most becoming, the young matron murmurs
to her elderly neighbor all the details OF little Binys attack OF tonsiltis,
and as soon as possible the president or chairman of the meeting dams
the flow OF gentle eloquence and gives some more practical member
the floor.
The practical member gets right down to facts. She tells the audi
ence, now all attention, what salary must be paid to an experienced
teacher of dressnaknng, what the material. for a shirt waist will cost,
and how long it will take each pupil to master the art of making a
salable shirt waist. She does not waste a second on pretty phrases.
but she drives fact after fact straight home, and when she is through
the club knows what the maintenance of a class will cost or what its
assessment for the training school will represent in practical returns.
And there you have the keynote to modern methods OF practical
philanthropy. Its motto is, provide the means for selfhelp," and its
object is to prepare women, girls and even BOYS, to meet the indus
trial and economic problems of to-day.
Club life for women OF to-day is almost Synonymous with phnan-
thropy. A club has not reached its highest development until it has
added to its roster some practical form of philanthropy. The social
meetings are merely the cement which holds together the organization
and arouSes strength and interest afterward applied to benefting
