BERLITz SCHOOL FAMOUS.
Reputation Established by It's Lam
EunEe study Methods.

The Berlitz School of Languages, at 50l
Fourteenth street northwest. is a branch
of the famous European school estab-
lished by NJ. d. BerlItz. chevaher de Le-
gion d'Honor 1t is presided over by
Prof A. Gonard. sole concessionaire for
the District fof Columbia.
The Berlitz School was established in
May, 1878. and was founded upon the
natural method Of language study, as
distinguished from the academic system.
The student is inducted into the myster-
les OF the new language, much as the
child Is taught his vernacular. He learns
the foreign tongue by its use daily and
constantly, until it becomes to him a
natural vehicle Of expression. whether in
thought. speech, OF writing. The method
of the Berlitz School Is peculiar TO It,
and with apt pupils remarkable success
has been achieved in learning the COM
plete use of a foreign language in few
months.
The languages taught in the Berlitz
School are: English, Irish, German,
French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Rus
sian, Swedish Norwegian Dutch Hun
garian, Bohemian. Arabic, Japanese, Chi
nese. and Hindustani Each instructor
teaches in his mother tongue. and the
student learns to speak by hearing the
language correctly pronounced by a
scholar Of the country represented. Teach
ing is by concrete object lessons, by as
sociation Of ideas, and grammar by ex-
amples.
There is no study Of the lessons In ad-
vance, instruction being given in the class
room and errors avoided. Careless and
defective pronunciation Is not tolerated.
and the study OF the pupil IS in the re-
view Of the lessons after being given as
an aid 20 the memory. It is instruction
first and constant practice afterward.
Special instruction is given IN the ad-
vanced study Of any language. and con-
versation circles are a feature of the
methods OF instruction. Written exer-
cises are corrected outside Of the class
without extra charge. Arrangements are
also offered for private lessons.

Rapid Transits, 8, Infantry, T. That

crowd of soldiers, sailors and civilians
watched the game. Considering the
fact that nothing else was doing in

prising that the crowd was small

against him.
The Infantry took the field first and
made the first inning a goose, not
one reaching first base.
Fern of the Transit team reached
second but was put out on third. When
Evers reached for his bat it looked
like safe run but Carey. by a bit of
slxilful pitching, put him out on third.
The second inning was a repetition
of the first for both sides. The third,
the part Of the fare-takers, for they
succeeded in ringing up five runs to
their opponents O.
The Infantry turned the tables on
their opponents in the fourth inning
as they made three runs to the Rap

The fifth inning saw the last OF the
Rapids runs, for after the four which
they made in that inning, the others
were filled with gooses.
The soldiers made two runs apiece
in the sixth and eighth innings.
Considering the fact that they have
no place to practise. some surprising
teamwork was shown by the Rapid
Transit team.

Hartman and the Public.

Hartman seems to have unlearned
the lesson which w. K. Vanderbilt
taught railroads that the public should
be treated with profane contempt. Re.
ports of Investigations of railroads ac-
cidents on his lines are to be made pub
lie, and outsiders will be admitted to
the sessions of the board making in
q~uiries.
From a business point of view this
new departure of Hartman is wise.
Heretofore it has been assumed, with
out stopping to inquire, that the ma
jority of accidents are due to faulty
equipment, for which the railroads
management is responsible. Rigid in
quiry should disclose the truth, and it
has been urged in favor of the plan of
publicity that it is certain to transpire
that individual carelessncss plays an
important part in piling up railroads
casualties. In possession of the tr, tn,

belongs, whether the culpit be man or

One Economy.

AS land inceases in value zone of the
things that will have to receive closer
attention is that of preventing wastes
that have heretofore existed. In no
better way can a move be made along
this line than in the starting of a flock
of sheep They will not only pick up
the bulk of their living from April to
December from vegetable growth that
usually goes to waste, but the farm will
be better and the work of tilling the
crops will be simplified because Of the
consumption of such waste. There is not
a farm but ought to have it's quota of
from thirty to fifty sheep. If one wishes
to get a start with a herd, no way is
better probably than to purchase a few
we'll bred ewes five or six years old of
a neighbor or at>some stock centre
where at certain seasons of the year
they are drug on the market and may
be got at q very low price. The extra
price should be put into the ram, which
is generally considered better than half
the flock. Gradually the old ewes can
be disposed of and younger ewes used
to fill their places. AS experience is
gained the flock may be enlarged

comet:
Anew comet was discovered by Mr..
Daniel at Princeton observatory on
June 8 and confirmed by Prof. w. r.
Brooks on June IL at Smith observa-
tory. 1t promises to be an interesting
object, and is now quite rapidly increas-
ing in brightness. An observation
made on the morning of July 8 showed
it to be three times brighter than at
discovery. Its position was right as

leg of Aries, from which place the
comet is moving in a northwesterly
course. On August / it vii be in the
head of Taurus, and from these two
positions the our of the comet for
the present can be easily marked out.
The comet is now visible in a small tel.
escope or field glass, and will soon be
visible to the naked eye in the eastern
morning sky.
On July, at 2 o'clock, the sky being
very clear. the comet was detected
with the naked eye as a misty star of

half degrees in length was easily seer

also visible in the 3-inch finder.

New Remedy for Snake Bites.

The Rural World prints an article by
DIR. j. H. Phelps prescribing iodine for
snake bites. DR.. Phelps cure is sim
pie and he declares it to be absolutely
effective. 1t is nothing more thar
tincture of iodine injected into the veins
near the wound.
"This is an absolute cure" a y Dir.
Phelps. 81 have tried iodine on man
and animal, and it never has failed
me. Even without 'hypo' the use of
iodine is simple. If the skin is AFRAID
ed a short distance above the bite,
scratch, say, with a knife or any
sharp instrument so that the blood
comes, and iodine is poured on freely,
so it will get into the circulation, no
trouble will ever be experienced from
the bite.

horses. A rattlesnake once bit one of
the finest of them on the nose, and my
brother promptly started to fill the an
imal up with whiskey, thinking that
might cure it. | was visiting him, and
asked him to let me try my remedy.
He scoffed at the idea, but consented.
| stuck the small blade of a knife in
above the wound, interfering the TO-
dine, using a goosequil as a syringe,
and the horse never felt the slightest
i'll effects, although the bite was a Sc
we're one. This has been the case in
many bites | have treated.
Another case was that of a child
that had been bitten by a water mecca
sin, the bite which is considered almost
fatal. But the iodine injected into the
veins promptly put a stop to the spread
of the poison, and the baby's life was
saved after the parents had given up
hope.
The same rule applies to the bites
of tarantulas, scorpions and their kind.
