Education has TWO sdes--thc mate
rial and the inm3tcria and of these
the immateral is the nohler. But so
severe apparently is the contest among
individuals for wages and so keen
among nations the struggle for SUI
premacy in commercial and industrial
pursuits and operations that the al.
vantages of education in the intellect
ual and spiritua development of man
kind are often kept out of sight The
Danes in their peoples high schools
have, better than other nations, sue
cecded in combining the two sides of
continuation school work. Against the
danger involved in excessive utilitari-
anism Professor Sadler utters a timely
warning.
LET us not identify tho world for
which we seek TO train every child
solely with the world of material in

REDFIEID PROCTOR.
(From tho Hartford Courant)

There are two vacant chairs in tho
Senate this morning. Death has quick
lv knocked again at the Senatc's door.
The first summons was for Latimer Of
South Carolina, an honest up-country
farmer, of homespun mind, faithful
and diigcnt according to his lights
but relatively undistinguished. Yes
terday's summons was for Redneld
Proctor.
Nermont's dead senator was Vor-
monts own son by strok and by ma
tivitY. He was born not quite -
years ago in the family homestead
and the village that bore the family
name He was not the poor boy of
the improving biographies; he went
to college when the time came, and
to the law school arterward. He went
into the volunteer army in the sixties.
and rose TO the command of a Ner-
mont regiment. lie represented his
town in the Legislature; served his
district there: served his state as
MISUNDERSTANDING, and then as gov
ornor. He made hmself-or the Proc.
tor marble quarries made hm-one of
the richest men in Vermont. and al
together the most powerful! man in
Vermont politics. President Harrison
made him secretary OF war. George
r. Edmundss resignation made him a
senator of the United States. He did
not fill Edmunds's place-that. like
the place of Allen G. Thurman, Ed
munds's democratic chum, remains I'M
filled to tks day-but in time he won
n place of his own. For years he
was closely associated with Connecti-
cuts General Eawley on the military
affairs committee. Perhaps it would
be saying too much to say that his
visit to cuba and the speech he made
in the Senate after his return brought
on the war with SPAIN it may be tina,
the war was fatcd and Inevitable. We
remember very well how instantly and
potently that speech of Redfield Proc
tors affected congressional and public
opinion,
lie had long life in the world, full
of worldly interests, activities,
achievements and material rewards.
We have been told--and like now TO
recall it-that he had humane thoughts
and kindly care for the men who
toilod in his quarries and heaped his
wealth He died at the halfway mile
stone of his third full term and in tho
seventeenth year of his senatorship.

Precious Weeds.

Some woods are so precious that they
sell by the pound instead Of by board
measurement. French burl brings
from 10 cents pound up. and single
log was sold in New York for $1,000
1t Is curious to note that the value of
this wood depends upon the wart or
knot which forms on the tree when
young and that the protuberance is
supposed to be caused by the sting of
an insect. The twisted burl produces
in time strange combinations of lines
which take high polish. A more ex-
pensive wood than the French burl is
q rare wood that comes from the coast
Of Africa and is commonly known as
amboy. This frequently sells at 20 to
2S cents pound. 1t is n reddish brown
wood, irregularly veined, and is held in
high esteem for inlayng Even ebony
is sold by weight commanding some
thing like $40 ton.-Chicago Record
Herald.
