Both the British house of commons
and the house of lords itself are hard
at work over the reformation of the
latter. The former want to IDEAL with
the situation strenuously, and the lat
hereditary and constitutional privileges.
Naturally, the lords may be trusted not
to hurt their own feelings, while the
people do not care how much noble
susceptibilities suffer. So the contest
for the honor of making reforms seems
rather unequal.

Way to Mans Heart.

Wise men and not few wise women
have given a great deal of brain fag-
ging thought in an endeavor to devise
ways and means for the promotion of
matrimony. In every community there
are a few persistent old bachelors who
refuse to be corraled. Here and there
is one who by common repute gets to
be classified as woman hater." But
Mrs. Adeline Gutsehaw, widow. of
Austin. Ill, has found out how to bring
even a woman hater from the error Of
his way and render him a. willing vic
tic to the ma trimonial halter. She has
captured the one woman ihater in her
district, and she thus tells how she
did it:
Add four eggs to quart of milk a
half cup of sugar and a little vanilla.
Bake half an hour until it sets. Serve
custard hot with cream and sugar.
Take one and a half cups of sugar,
one cup of sour milk or cream, two
eggs. one tea spoonful of soda. one cup
of butter and flour to mix soft. Add
vanilla flavoring and bake until cook
les are q delicious brown.
No woman hater, there is reason to
believe can resist this bait. Anyhow,
it decoyed into matrimony one man
who had a woman hating record run
ring back through twenty-five years.
Like most great cures, it is a compound
Of simples, though undoubtedly con-
siderable amount of skill on the part of
the compounder is necessary. The

Education and Vacation

The Boston school board has estab-
lished a Vocation Bureau" the pur-
pose of which is to ascertain the con-
dttfon. the needs the natural tastes,
the hopes and plans of the boys and
girls in the grades. in an effort to
assist them toward a life work with
the least waste Of time and effort.
Records are to be kept of pupils for
two or three years before they leave
school, showing to what extent their
vocational desires change and shift
and to what extent they are likely to
make a wise choice in their life work.
This is but a first step in a move
ment that is growing all over the
country for the purpose of bringing
education into direct alliance with
livelihood.
If it were absolutely known just
what future employment a pupil was
best suited and most cared for. 1t
would be possible to so direct his edu-
cation as to save waste, both to the
pupil and to the school.
In England the educational boards
are cooperating with labor exchanges
and boards of trade in an effort to
keep track of pupils after they leave
school, and to save then. from falling
into lines of employment in which the
money expended for their education by
the state will not be justided.-Chicago

er reports were also read at the meet
ing which were accepted as read Mr.
Beede's recommendation is in line
with a policy advocated not only by
him, but also by large percentage of
local taNpe yers to make the grammar
schools more practical than they are
a present. In this way the many pu-
pits who are forced to quit their
schooling when they have completed
the work in the grammar schools will
be better fitted to enter business. The
Iengthening of the sessions will be
necessary only about once a week and
will affect only the pupils in the upper
grades.
