TOMMY As GOOD As A CHART.
Nurse Had No Trouble Remembering
Time for HE Medicine.

A Boston physician tells story OF q
.youngster OF his own that an over
strenuous vacation had put on the sick
list. The father had an appropriate
prescription filled. and left the bottle
with the child's mother. As she. how.
ever. is very forgetful. he gave her
chart. and suggested that she set down
the hours when the medicine should
be given. checking or each dose ~
taken. Upon returning from his even
ing calls. however. he found the chart
blank.
Good gracious. Mary" he exclaimed:
surely you haven't failed to give Tom
his medicine?"
"Oh, no. I did not miss q single
Time" his wife assured him.
How in the world did you remem-
Der II without the chart?" he asked.
She smiled.
THAT was easy. Just told Tom this
morning at what hours he was to have
II. and half an hour before each time
he would begin hallooing that he
wouldn't take It,"

The Educated viii.

All classes Of thinkers. realizing that
education is the nations first problem.
have contributed to the discussion OF
the school question. The physician
has made his plea for the child's
health, the clergyman has put In his
word for religious instruction, the en-
ployer has asked the schools to send
him graduates trained In the rudi-
ments OF business. All this interest In
education stimulates teachers and
keeps the schools abundantly equipped
and progressive. But under all the
varied questions, the fundamental pur-
pose Of education is sometimes buried
from sight. Prof. Friedrich Paulssn.
German teacher and philosopher.
has recently summoned his country
men to remember the old moral roots
Of education. His article, translated
In the Educational Review, bids us
hold fast TO the principles that educa-
ton means training in obedience, ap-
plication, and the subsection Of the
young will to the older disciplined will.
This philosopher and teacher OF ethics
knows that the civilized human being
Is he who can drive controlled mind
to definite goal, and that schools and
parental discipline and churches have
as their object the making OF civilized
men and women out Of raw material.
So that when a devotee Of "child-psy-
chology" advocates study of the child
bent and adaptation of educational
methods to the young individual soul,
the old-fashioned teacher agrees, pro-
vided the teacher and not the child
Is to do the adapting. When the
preacher Of health and nature shows
the beautiful development OF free
childhood running wild in the open
fields, the old.fashioned teacher admits
the poetry Of the idea, but insists that
the child will never enjoy freedom un-
til he has learned methodically to do
as he is told, indoors and out. And
when the pedagogical expert devises
course in manual training. French,
music and nature study. the same old
fashioned teacher accepts the combl-
nation, provided the pupil be required
to do his work thoroughly in each sub.
ject, whether he likes It or not.

HERE'S REAL SAFETY ENVELOPE.
Ingenious Device for Double Locking .

A new envelope made In Paris Il

who opens a letter to extract or to

The new envelope is really two en-.

The letter is first placed In the blue

reaches down to good'sized star

to the inner envelope. SO that when
the outer flap is sealed II sticks not
only to the outer envelope but also
through this opening to the inner one.
The letter is thus practically locked

German Manufacturers Put u to
Good Advantage.

In Germany not only Is the cotton
waste from all its own mills manufac-
tured into useful articles. but waste is
imported from all sections Of the globe,
the amount purchased from the United
States alone being valued at $1,000. 900
or more yearly.
This waste Is worked over into .
large variety of articles. and consti-
tutes an important feature Of German
industry. Some Of 1t goes into coarse
towels, dishrags, scrubbing cloths.
blankets, quilts. fiannelettes. cloth to
be printed, twine, rope, bagging. etc..
which are then exported back to the
United States or sold to the Philip
pines.
Germany also utilizes vast amounts
Of wool waste. which 1t mixes with
cotton waste in proportions all the way
from 2 to 20 per cent Of wool to IS
and 20 of cotton. In the production Of
cheap hosiery. blankets, yigogne yarn.

The Benevolent Parasite.

The part that parasites play in
checking and preventing the ravages
of insects which injure and destroy
shade trees, grain, fruit and other
vegetable products Is now 80 well rec
ognized that 1t seems the matter OF
getting RID VI an? particular sort OF
pest Is merely n question Of finding
the right kind of parasite. The fruit
growers OF Australia have just had a
convincing object-lesson. A noted en-.
tomologist found in India the parasite
which would do the trick, but the diff
Guilty was to overcome the difference
In seasons and climates between In.
tia and Australia. The problem was
solved finally by putting the parasites
to sleep and then transporting them TO
Australia, where they went to work
in the good old summer time quite as
II on their native heath. Il seems like
q mean trick to play on the little
creatures, but doubtless this was a
case where the end justified the
means. If the pests would not come
to the parasites, the parasites, Ma.
homet-like, could be made to conform
10 circumstances and 90 to the pests.
Anyway, science scores another tri-
umph and indicates another way Of
escape from the ills to which the vege-
table kingdom Is heir.
