A Painful Expression.

William G. Rockefeller is the
president of the National Beague
Club and an authority on dogs nc
less than on finance.
Discussing the training of dogs al
a recent club meeting, Mr.. Rookie
teller said:
Eyes, training is an art. The
simplest appearing canine perform
ance is, properly understood, q
difficult thing. 1t looks easy, but
it is hard; and thus"-Mr Rookie
Teller smiled-"thu it is like the
man at the photographers.

trait, said impatiently to the artist

Corporal Punishment.

The moral delinquency of the ris-
ing generation is attracting the earn
est attention of students of social
and moral questions throughout the
world.
To check this. many remedial and
disciplinary plans are being sug-
gested. The lack of parental in
strnction and discipline in one fruit
ful cause of moral deficiency. Many
feel that the school must assume
this duty which the parent neglects.
Every child must be taught obedi-
ence to law and a higher authority.
A return to corporal punishment in
the public schools is, therefore, be-
ing advocated by many teachers and
publicists.
President Hall of Clark University
has recently proposed some novel
remedies for the waywardness of
American youth. He says that "a
sound rebuke from parents and
teachers usually has salutary effect,
especially if the scolding, when ne
cessary, is followed up by punish
ment which has fallen still more in
to desuetude, 'flogging. "-Milwau-

A Knowledgeous Person.

An English marvel has come to
this country to answer any question
as to quantity or date that may be
asked him. 1t is said that know
ledge is power, and according to this,
that man must be a powerful man,
but on the other hand, it is very
likely he is nothing of the kind. A
man may know SO much that the
knowledge is in his way and inter-
feres with his thinking and doing.
knowledge is power only when 1t
is put to work, and to reach this
point there must be disposition or
resolution in this person to be some
thing. Always getting knowledge,
but never assimilating 1t or putting
it to some good use, is apt to make
the individual negative If not worth
less. So our educational institutions
should always weave purpose along
side of instruction. The person
who cannot or will not make the
fact he has learned vital is not edu-
Gated. Industrial training recognizes
this doctrine, and so does every 9TH
er true educational purpose Ohio

ease that science has been able to cure in all

Cure is the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being con-

treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken inter-

the patient strength by building up the con
stitution and assisting nature in dong its

Vegetable Compound has done for me
during this trying period. Complete
restoration to health means so much
to me that for the sake of other suffer-
ing women / am willing to make my
trouble public SO you may publish
this letter. - Mrs. CHAs. BARCLAY,
RID, Graniteville, VT.
Noother medicine for woman's ills
has received such widespread and UNI
qualified endorsement. No other med
icine we know of has such record
of cures of female ills as has Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
For more than so years it has been
curing female complaints such as
Inflammation, liberation, local weak
nesses, fibroid tumors, irregularities,
periodic pains, backache, indigestion
and nervous prostration, and it is
unequalled for carrying women safely
through the period of change of life.
1t costs but little to try Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and,
as Mrs Barclaysays, it is worth noun
tains of gold . to suffering women.

Mind Your P's And O's.

The most probable derivation of
this phrase is that it comes from the
printing office, and rose from the fact
that the p's and as in Roman type
very but slightly in form, and thaS
when reversed, as they necessarily
are in type, they are easily confound-
ed by young compositors. Another
derivation refers it to the scot
written up in the ale-house, where
p and Q were used to designate
pints and quarts. Still another dc
rivation refers it to the toupees and
queues of osden times.

suS recently showed that In the work
house on Blackwells Island there
were 1925 men and $40 women serv-
ing terms ranging from five days to
six months, all for trifing offenses.
In the Harris Island institution
there were 653 men and thfrty-seven
women, and at Riker's Island 262
males were housed. Besides. there
are scores of prisoners committed to
the workhouse who have been trans
ferred to the different detention
prisons scattered throughout the
greater city to do the cleaning. Ac-
cording to the figures of the Commits
sioner of Correction obtained recent
ly, there was grand total of 3014
prisoners at present regularly COM
mitted to the workhouse.
From all over the State the same
reports are received crowded pris-
ons, thickly tenanted warehouses; and
sion to almshouses.
The overerowded condition Of peni-
tentiaries and prisons in New York
State is not peculiar to this State.
Special dispatches subjoined indicate
that similar conditions prevail in
many other States. New York prison
officials attributed 1t to two circum-
stances-the hard times and the in
flux of undesirable aliens.
Courts Less Lenient-
Massachusetts County and
State reformatory and prison institu-
lions are crowded at the present time
as they have not been for years. The
authorities attribute this condition to
the establishment of juvenile courts,
leading to the arrest and conviction
of many petty lawbreakers who here
tofore have escaped with repri-
mand. Besides, they say, the courts
of late have in very many instances
imposed sentences where previously
they have put the accused on proba-
ton. The probation plan has not
worked out as satisfactorily as it was
hoped.
Hard Times Blamed.
Philadelphia. - For the last five
years the penal institutions of Penn
sylvania, both State and county. have
been inadequate. The crowded con-
ditions in the Eastern Penitentiary.
in this city, were relieved somewhat
few days ago when score OF Fed
eral prisoners were removed to the
new Government prison at Atlanta.
The hard times have been the cause
for an increase in petty crime, but 1t
is not believed that there is any
greater PROPORTION of alien criminals
than formerly.
Maryland Like New York.
4 Baltimore, Md.-All the penal in.
situations of the State and city are
more crowded than ever before with
minor offenders. 1t is attributed by
the officials largely to hard times and
the presence of foreign undesirables.
In report to the Governor recently
it was stated that while there are
fewer cases due to the enforcement OF
the anti7cocaine law, there is large
increase in police court cases. The
State penitentiary now has more in
mates than 1t has had at any time
within five years. One of the city po-
lice magistrates last week let on
number of petty offenders, saying he
did not want to add just now to the
number of prisoners who are crowd
ing the city Jail. The House OF Cor
rection is filled to overfowing with
Offenders committed from all parts of
the State. Bay View Asylum, the city
almshouse, Is so packed with pauperS,
sane and insane. that vigorous pro-
tests are being made against the con-
ditions prevailing there.

CHILD ATE cUrIcURA.
Spread Whole Box of 1t ON Crackers
Not the Least Injury Resulted
Thus Proven Pure and Sweet


Thus Proven Pure and Sweet.
A New York friend of Cuticura writes:
my three year old son and heir, after
being put to bed on a trip across the At
lantic, investigated the stateroom and To-
Gated a box of graham crackers and box
of Cnticura Ointment. When search was
made for the box, it was found empty and
the kid admitted that he had eaten the
contents of the entire box spread on the
crackers. 1t cured him of bad cold and
don't know what else."
No more conclusive evidence could be
offered that every ingredient of Cuticura
Ointment is ABSOLUTELY pure, sweet and
harmless. If it may be safely eaten by
young child, none but the. most beneficial
results can be expected to attend its appli-
cation to even the tenderest skin or
