EDUCATION OF GIRLS
Glance at the Methods Of Sixty Years

OF Present.

When one realizes the state of fe-
male education sixty years ago, its
progress as evinced today is marve-
lous indeed.
In the first half of the Nineteenth
Century, the policy of seeming
rather than of being. was followed
throughout Languages and society
manners were considered all import
ant-there were no games and the
only form of exercise was that of
walking, with riding for the wealthy
girls.
The schools were small and suffered
from bad classification In consequence,
rs classes had to be made up from
girls of widely differing ages, while
teaching" consisted Of hearing les,
sons got by heart often without
any explanation.
When one reads the report of an
examiner OF a girls school only 80
years ago, that many girls showed a
great aptitude for mathematics, but
parents discouraged continuance of
sound education after the age of IL
or 10 in order to keep the girl femi.

HOPE ALWAYS THE BEST FOOD
What tie Doctor Suggests, Not What
He Gives. Has Greatest Effect
on PatIens.

Doctor" :...a ene of those self-cen-
tered ladies who are always extract
ing opinions gratis from the medical
profession, what do you consider the
best food as a constancy?'
Hope, madam" returned the doc
tor, promptly, lat all times and in all
places. Net senseless optimism, but
a self-respecting hope. Heaven and
Nature int~s ed it to be the chief
pabulum of the race The table
dared not smile, and the doctor, hav-
ing secured few minutes immunity,
declined Wholesome" prefaces. and
fell upon robust breakfast Of bacon
and eggs, waffles and hot rolls. The
lady regarded him wistfully, for the
doctor ate with appetizing gusto. A.
stomach long trained on other peo-
pies theories concerning edibles was
not to be trifled with, so she was fain
to satisfy herself upon tasteless
cereal, and then nibbled a little dry
toast and slipped woeful substitute
for coffee But the doctor is nothing
Ii not humane so, between his Waf-
f1es he looked across at her pleasantly
and began: Il said that because what
a doctor actually does or gives is in
finitely less in its effect than what
he suggests This is truth old as
Hippocrates and Galen, though, per-
haps only in this age are we begin
ming definitely and intelligently to
utilize it. Happiness is the substance
and aim of life and living, and hope
is nine tenths, say of happiness; its
greatest factor; therefore beware OF
unconscicusly dispensing with hope

[Special TO The Cate CITY I

Especial to The Gate City.]
SPRINGFIELD. ILL.,, Dec. 2O-Owing
to numerous accidents which have oc-
railways, in the state. board of rail-
road and warehouse commissioners
called i'll the officials of the various
roads today to confer with the board
as to means to prevent such acct
dents in the future. The questions
taken up were the standardizing of the
methods Of train dispatching. one
road having one system and another
different one, and system of rules
for the operation of cars and for the
government of the motormen and
| conductors. which will include a uni
form system of instructions, the in
| stitution of block signals and other
matters of great Importance to the
safety of the travelling public. One
of these questions is the matter of the
qualification of the motormen and
conductors General Manager Club
buck of the Illinois Traction system
which operates large majority of the
track of interurban roads in the
state, made the statement to the com
mission that he would not employ
steam railroad men because they are
careless and Indifferent and do not
make good electric road men. Gen
eral Manager A. ID. Ayres of Keokuk
disagrees with the general managers
of other roads regarding the employ
ment of steam car railroad men.

THREAD USED BY SURGEONS
Time Has Proven That catsut Is
Only Material for Buried
Suture.

When Lister first advocated the en-
ployment of catgut as material for
ligatures, numerous writer's pointed
out the objections, both theoretical
and practical, to the use of this sub
stance. But time has seen change
and many surgeons at the present
time maintain that the only suitable
material for buried suture is cat
gut, and that silk should never be
employed except for skin sutures.
In this, as in SO many other points,
the surgeon is greater than the detail.
It is certain that millions of silk SUI
lures have been inserted in the deep
tissue, and have not cut their way
out for II suture does make it's way
to the surface it is probably always
because 1t was septic.
The attempt to find ligature or
suture perfect in every way has
caused surgeons to employ many diff
ferent substances. Metallic sutures
Cor time received much support,
though they are rarely seen now.
Animal fibres of various kinds, such
as kangaroo tendons and threads of
the aorta of the OK, have been praised
by some surgeons, and one surgeon
claimed that perfection was to be
found In flbres obtained from the liga.
mentumnuchae of the narwhal. 1t is
fortunate that the medical world has
not fallen in with this latter recon.
nendation, for it is to be feared that
the supply would fall far short of INC
demand
