MR EpsoN,s ADpREss.

MT. Adrew w. Edson, associate su- perintendent of the Department or Ed ucation of the City of New York, took for his topic "The Problem of the Backward Pupil. MT. Edson said in part:
 Tt goes without saying that it is the right of every child to receive an edu- cation, and the duty of every parent and citizen to provide it.And every child is entitled to all the education which he is capable of recesiYing. It is the business of teachers and school authorities to see that all the bright, the dull, even those who at the time little appreciate an education alike re- ceive as much of a training as is pos- sib1e, physical, intellectual and moral.
 Backward pupils, those below the grade to which their age entities them, may be behind in all subjects or, as 1t often happens, behind in certain sub jects for which they have little taste. A pupil may be said to be over-age for the graces if he has not completed the first years work by the time he at- tains his eighth birthday, the second years work by tEe time he is nine years of age, and so on. A critical examination of the roll-books in most schools will show remarkably large proportion of pupils behind the grade to which their age entities them. Backwardness in grade work is due to five causes-pupils are irregular in at tendance, are of foreign percentage, mentally slow, physically defective or poorly classified and poorly taught.
 "The truant is no criminal but he may be; in fact he has entered upon the way, and heroic measures are of ten necessary to set him alright and to parental neglect, bad environment, evil companions, physical or mental de- fleets, desire to work, or to poor teach | ing and poor management The rem edy lies to large extent in the teach- CTS hands-better management and better teaching
 "As to mental detectives, it is assert cd by competent authority that at least one-half of one per cent. of the Ipupils in our schools are sub-normal, with all possible varieties of grades, from those who are merely somewhat slow to imbeciles and idiots. From the standpoint of the school, only those who are susceptible of intellec- tual improvement should be consid- cred. For all such there should be a place in the public schools. Special classes should be formed and the chill dren should be given the education
 that will best meet their needs.

heredity, disease, accident, poor nutri- ton or fatigue. The treatment should be such as to arouse dormant energies, to increase the intellectual powers, to cultivate self-control, to train to self dependence and to some useful oecupa- tion.
 Under the head of physical defec- tives, are cripples, those having physi- cal deformities, those hard of hearing, those having poor eyesight, and those in anemie condition. Granted that it will be somewhat more expensive to educate this class than to educate nor mai children in good physical condi- ton, the classes must be small, special equipment and specially trained teach CTS must be secured, and often trans portation and medical service provi- ded, but the education should be of Tered. These children have even a greater claim upon the state for an ed- ucation than have children in perfect physical condition; as they are so nearly helpless, and are sure to be burden upon their family and the state later on if their education is withheld. Some of the leading cities have already provided special schools for these children as part of the pub lie school system.
 Rigid classification and poor teach ing are responsible for mre backward ness on the part of pupils than all oth- CT causes combined.

The disadvantages are a loss of indi- viduality-all pupils of class treated alike, as on a dead-level, in 8 lock-step system; a loss of time to many who are obliged to keep pace with the slow CT ones; and an unfayorable effect upon dull pupils who are discouraged in trying to advance with their more gifted mates. The essentials to be kept in view in any scheme of classif- cation and promotion are 8 broad and i flexible course of study, short inter- vals, and individual promotion.

vogue for so many years has grown into an abuse. The appropriation Tor newspaper reporters will be aban- doned Twice in recent years the House has refused to make this appro- priation by decided majorltles' me Senate on the other hand has been friendly to the idea. Some years ago Ia bill was passed and approved pro- hibiting appropriations for newspaper men. It was repealed by the succeed ing general assembly. The governors signature approving the measure was not dry before the reporters m each house were granted the old time gra- tuity. But there will be something stronger than statute law against the system next winter. Public sentiment will prevent the gratuity The grant ing of public money by the legislature in recognizing the services of reporters dates back third of a tcentury. was not regarded with disfavor at the start by the Senate or the House. The principle, however, was the same at the beginning as it is now The Hartford Courant, under the manage ment of Charles Hopkins Clark, was the first newspaper in the state that
 took a decided stand against the GUS tom. It has fought it for years. Since the days of Major "Jack" Kin ney the Courant has required its re- porters not to receive the legislative appropriation. The effect of that rule has been felt more and more each year since it was made. There is nothing to be said in favor of the appropriation, and it's extinction will be a reform

TWO KINGS.

Ulsually there was one child in the ward who reigned over the other chil- dren and in the hearts of the grown ups" through some natural superiority over the other little patients. But ,once upon time, there were two kings reigned with equal popurarity over this litle whitecribbed kingdom,
 Victors could never decide which was the more attractive. Both were extremely friendly ,and equally spoiled Both were typical boys much freckled, and at the age when the falling of the first tooth sets one far above his fel- lows. Both made equally amusings naive remarks. And no real kings sit ting on thrones could hay ebeen more envious.
 When doctor would stop to chaff with John, Paul would soon sidle up and display all his charms. When a visitor gave John an orange, he would wait for hours if need be, until he could eat it with much gusto before Paul. And you may be sure that peo- | pie who came into the ward did much to kindle this rivalry. Both happily were still below the age when childhood learns to be conscious, and their lit- tie arts were very innocent and funny
 happened to be lettering in the ward one day when the two were eating their luncheon. They were sitting in their red chairs at the same low table devouring oorned beef hash.
 John stared at Paul for second, and then announced, T know how hash is made"
 "Poohl So do ]" retorted Paul My mother puts it in a bowl and then she chops it and chops it and chops it."
 And then what does she do?" de- manded John, who was evidently well up on the various stages of hashmak- ing.
 Paul had thought this was all, but suddenly a happy thought struck him.
 Then she puts in pepper and salt" he returned, triumphantly. l "And the what2" persisted John.
 Paut had told all he knew, so John slowly and distinctly concluded. "she puts 1t in bug"

HOW TO CLEAN RUGS.


 MT. George leland Hunter gves the following the instructions of interest to all good housekeepers in an article en- titled "The Truth Abous Doctored' Rugs in Country Life in America for July!
 The care of q fine rug is every thing. Just as thoroughbred racers have luxury and affection lavished upon them so thoroughbred rugs should be treated getntly and tenderly, The broom should be used daily on them and they should be swept with the nap. Every third day, after the sweeping, sawdust that has been slightly moistened should be sprinkled over the rug, which should then be gone over with carpet sweeper. Be careful to have the sweeping proceeds the application of sawdust as other wise the moisture will turn some of the dust into mud that caking itself in the threads vii ravel the fibers. ] Once a week rugs should be taken out on the lawn, spead outface down and then gently tapped gently mind-with flat rattan beater.
 Fine rugs, like razors-and people, too-require rest. By no means leave rugs in use during the summer. When the warm weather approaches have them taken up, carefully cleaned, and sent to cold storage The process of i cleaning as practiced by experts is as follows Frst all the dust is re- moved by the vacuum system; then the rug is spread, on it's face, liquid olive | oil soap is poured over the back, and it is gently rubbed with brush until a fine lather forms.
