PUBLIC sCHooL cRIsIs.
Average Term of Teachers' Service
 Only FoWr Yearh.

Average Term of Tenchers' Service ia
 Only Four Years.
 Boston Transcript.
 A, crisis in our public school system is coming before long. says one of our vetern educators. and. for this reason. Nobody stays in the public school service longer than to find some position with better assured future. The average term of senvice of the public school teachers in our cities in less than four years; in the rural dis- tricts less than three years: and no teacher becomes really valuable in a given service in less than five years These are the figures of an expert. In Chelsea. for example. the maximum of calary for women teachers is reach ed In seven years service; but the start Is made at $400 and the maximum is $T0o. Women of gumption prefer to seek some occupation where they may reach a higher salary with less than that number of years preparation. Thare. Is no estimating how much the schools lose by the frequent changing of teachers. which Is: the rule in city and country alike. The prime cause Of the rest1essness of the public school teaching force Is the absence of security of tenure, and of provision for the time of superannuation. The strongest teaching should be found in mot in the high schools alone, for the great mass of children do not reach the high school. The nation cannot afford to have anything less than the best teaching ability in the schools for the great. majority if 1t hopes to continue an enlightened self government.
 As the world has always done with regard to the poets, according to the proverb in the Latin grammar. we laud the teachers and allow them to starve in their old, age. The Teachers Annuity Guild of Massachusetts. an organization of teachers administering fund contributed by teachers for re- tiring teachers, has nobly endeavored to stand by the gap. It gives according to an agreed-on scheme annuities. that have been laid up in the course of their service by salf-imposed assess ment and put at interest. Whatever contributes to the permanence of the teaching body. as security of tenure and provision for retirement certainly do Is patriotic service of the highest and most far reaching benefeence. How much longer shall we wait in this land of mupihcept giving for some such foundation as MT. Carnegie has made for college professors applicable to the teachers of the public schools?

New York Medical Journal.
 W. C. Wood attributes carsickness to the nystagmus produced by looking out of the car window Look out of a car window and observe how rapidly the telegraph poles fit by; each one is seen and involuntarily followed by the eye until 1t is opposite, when the eye shifts to the one following. This Is true of near buildings: objects lar ther away seem to move slower. and those very far off seem to be almost stationary. until the whole landscape appears to be revolving round a com mon centre. The unconscious effort to take in everything produces a rapid la teral oscillation of the eyeballs. as any one can observe by watching the eyes o& his fellow passengers. The eye strain is enormous and is the chief factor In producing carsickness. This can be proved by asking patient wh 0 is subject to carslckness to look stead fly at a mirror which Is moved rapidly to and fro or tilted backward and for ward. He will immediately complain of nausea and vertigo The treatment consists of advising the patient to avoid looking out of the car windows and In giving him a grain of citrated caffeine shortly before he takes the cars. and repeating 1t every hour as long al there is any tendency to be sick. The author has been enabled by this procedure to relieve many suffer- CTS from CarsiCkneSs.

that the yacht represented sentiment to him.

She said that there only one thing she
should really like; but that she could not have
it. because it was not in the market He
asked what it was and it turned out to be the
ruby that Logotheti had given her. and had
taken to Pinney's to be cut, which had
been the cause of so many unexpected events
including her marriage Logotheti had it in
his possession she supposed; but he had
shown good taste in not trying to press it on
her wedding present. for she could not
have accepted it. Nevertheless, she wanted it
very much more remembrance than for
its beauty.
Van Torp said he thought he could fix that,
and he did. He went direct to Pinney, and
asked what had become of the stone Pinney
answered that it was now cut. and was in his
safe for sale. The good man had felt it would
not be tactful to offer it to Van Torp. Logo

Margaret looked at him wonderingly, and
then opened the small morocco case. oh

delight. Il never saw anything SO beautiful
in my life! It's never SO much more glorious
than when l last saw it

Torp.
1T ought to have name of its own. I'm
sure it's more beautiful than many of the
named crown jewels!" She felt half hypnotized
she gazed into the glorious depths of the
great stone. Thank you" she cried. thank
you SO very much! I'm gladder to have it

And thereupon she threw her magnificent
arms round Rufus Van Torps solid neck. and
kissed his cool fiat cheek several times.

Van Torp.

posts His utterances in favor OF this
plan, like those of Governor Hoch, of
Kansas, are being widely circulated in
the West. Where the guarantee of de.
posits is one of the most important and
popular issues in the campaign, it will
be of interest to many people to know
that Senator Nelson favored the guaran-
tee of bank deposits in n speech before
Congress on the Aldrich Nreeland bill.
Among other things he said:
To my mind if we want to deal
honestly with the American people-if
we want to deal honestly with the de-
postors in our national banks-we ought
to keep this fund that we call "a reserve
fund" for the protection Of the de
postors, in shape where it can at all
times be available for the protection of
the depositors.
1T is common thing to note-and |
call attention to it-that az soon rs the
State of Oklahoma adopted law to
protect the depositors IN its state banks
the national banks of that state applied
to the Comptroller of the Currency for
leave to participate with the state banks
Of Oklahoma in providing II fund to pro
tect their depositors. ! may say, incl
dentally, that | have in my committee
room upstairs, scores Of letters from
bankers and prominent business men
throughout the country, all favorlng
this plan of protecting depositors.
1T may seem an innovation to some
of you, but am satisfied that II men
can protect depositors by fund Gre
ated in this way and then repeal the
law IA to bank reserves, we shall have
solved the chief financial difficulties that
afflicted us so sadly in the recent panic,
and there will be no occasion for any
emergency currency.
ITO my mind in addition to repeating
the law relating to reserves, to which
| have called your attention, | think we
ought to do something to protect our de-
po-tors. To my mind, as a matter OF
principle, there Is nodistinction between
bill holder and depositor. Both are
creditors of the bank.
while good and sharp business men
are able, rs a rule, though not always,
to discriminate between banks, the or
binary depositors-the plain common
peoples not possessed of such dis
eliminating power. To him all ma
tional banks" are good because they are
government institutions and are labeled
AZ such. He cannot tell whether the
banks make proper use OF their deposits
and it is these common plain people
that are entitled to our care and pro-
lection
