Flow Of Artesian Well.

To calculate the rate Of flow of an
artesian well a simple plan is TO lower
a bottle of aniline fluid to a depth of
say 500 feet and then electrically ex.
plode a cap to burst the bottle. The
time required for the fluid to appear
at the surface gives an accurate gauge
as to the velocity of flow. 1t is claimed
that this method gives results as ac-
curate as weir. The diameter of
the pipe being known, the rate of flow
readily follows.

THERE is A REASON.
The Medical Times Explains Why
Doctors Oppose Patent Medicines.

The Medical Times for April in a
moment of frankness explains the
whole opposition of physicians to pat
ent' medicines which are taken with
out prescription, in the following
words:
I'VE will hardly repeat here the
specific statement to the effect that
In one year 62,OO0,O00 has been ex.
pended on patent medicines in the
United States. Enough to give every
practitioner in the country yearly
Income OF $1,000. In the face Of such
facts as these. all talk of love of hu.
manity. altruism, self.abnegation and
the like becomes cheaD and nauseat.
Ing. 1t appears to us that such bun.
combe should give place to homely
common sense"
Reliable authority states that the
gross amount OF the patent" mcdi-
cine business is about $4,000, 900 in.
stead OF S62 100000 but taking the
Medical Times figures as correct they
represent an outlay of considerably
less than 81 per capita for home medi.
cation. The cost OF doctors fees ex-
elusive of medicines except such as
are dispensed for the same period.
probably was approximately s23O.0OO..
900. This is reached by allowing an
average income OF $4,000 to each of

The extraordinary popularity of fine
white goods this summer makes the
choice of Starch a matter of great i'm.
portance. Defiance Starch, being free
from all injurious chemicals, is the
only one which is safe to use on fine
fabrics. Its great strength as stiffener
makes half the usual quantity of Starch
necessary. with the result of perfect
finish, equal to that when the goods

Superficial School Training.

Sneering at Oxford is not a proper
response to DR.. William Osler's re-
gretful announcement that many Of
the Rhodes scholars from this coun-
try will not attain their degrees be-
cause their training In American
schools and colleges has been made
quate, remarks the New York Mail.
The present regius professor OF Ok.
ford is not the first American to rec
ognize the defects of our system Of
tuition as a basis for true scholar
ship. Learning made easy" tricky
textbooks that simplify" studies Of
real difficulties into a mere matter Of
memory; smatterings Of science" Of
every description plastered upon
small brains unframed to work any
way but parrotlike or monkeylike-
these are the too frequent errors in
American schools that make for
"mushy" minds. The fault, we be-
lieve, lies less with teachers than Dr..
Osler believes. 1t is due rather to
the Impotence of parents and chill
dren alike with studies that promise
no prompt and practical returns.

The English Cabinet.

:, In England the cabinet is an extra
legal creation. Nominally It is one Of
the committees of the privy council,
whose functions are to advise the
sovereign. but this is simply a surviv-
al Of mediaevalism. The cabinet Is
vnder the sole control Of the premier,
hhampered by royal or other inter-
ference; but-another survival-no
member of the cabinet may make pub
lie any matter discussed by the cabi-
net without the express sanction Of
the sovereign; and when the premier
issues a summons to q cabinet coun-

The Educated NEGRO.

Dr.. Booker Washington has contrib
uted to the Montgomery Journal a
long statement regarding the gradu-
ates Of Tuskegee. In which he again
declares that he is unable to find a
single one who has been convicted Of
crime in either a state or a United
States court OF such a record any
Iinstitution might be proud; it is the
nest answer TO the unenllghtened
ihites In the south who still believe
nat education harms" the negro. II
he had reported rs per cent. of Grim
inality, there would still be reason
for his carrying on his work, says the
New York Post; that he has been
able to show so clean q record is more
than ever reason why his hands
should be strengthened, north and
south. DR.. Washington is confident
that what is true of Tuskegee. is
practically true Of the other indus
trial schools for his race in the
south. Certainly, Hampton has as
fine a. record. To his statement, the
principal of Tuskegee has appended a
list Of his graduates and ex-s,udents
who are now residing in Montgomery
city or county. OF ITO such graduates
,or students who can be traced. all are
engaged, in respectable and profitable
enterprises. They represent % pro-
fessions and trades, there being 22
carpenters, 6 blacksmiths, 8 teachers,
IL farmers, clerks. masons and
bricklayers. etc, Most Of these 10
own their homes and other property.
