The Fall Opening of Schools.

The American School Board Journal:
The fall opening of schools for the year
1901 was not remarkable for any one
particular or striking educational fact
or event. 1t was the normal opening of
schools with the return of teachers and
pupils, with the change or return of
superintendent of schools, and the re-
awakened interest of school board
members.
Of course, this is as it should be. If
every fall opening of school were mark
ed by some revolutionary or striking
change, the best interests of the schools
might not at all be conserved. The
wheels of education, like the wheels of
justice, grind slowly but surely, and it
might be added, best while they are 60
ing slowly.
Nevertheless, there are few striking
facts about the present fall opening of
schools which deserve a moment s
thought and comment. To begin with,
the physical conditions of schools were
better than ever before. By physical
conditions are meant school buildings,
new and old. Never before in the his
tory of this country have pupils been so
uniformly accommodated in every state
in the Union.

Setting Her RIGHT.

On one Of the corners of a busy
thoroughfare sat an old man blind and
minus one leg. A sympathetic lady
who was passing stopped and gazed
at him in pity.
Finally she approached him and be-
gan asking him questions. She asked
him if he were married. how many
children he had, where he had worked
last, how he had met with the accident
that had incapacitated him for work
and q thousand other questions.
Finally the unfortunate one became
peevish. Madam" he exclaimed harsh
ly, you may think this is an infor-
nation bureau. 1t is not. 1t is a
collecting agency" - Cincinnati Com

WHY HESITATE?
An Offer That Involves No Risk
For Those Who Accept it.


We are so positive that our remedy
will completely relieve constipation, no
matter how chronic it may be, that we
offer to furnish it free of all cost if it
fails.
Constipation is caused by weakness of
the nerves and muscles of the large
intestines or descending colon. To
expect cure you must therefore tone
up and strengthen those organs and
restore them to healthier activity.
We want you to try Rexan Orderlles
on our guarantee. They are eaten like
candy, and are particularly ideal for
children. They act directly on the
nerves and muscles of the bowels.
They have neutral action on the other
organs or glands. They do not purge
or cause any inconvenience whatever.
They will positively overcome chronic
or habitual constipation and the myriads
of associate or dependent chronic all
ments. Try Rexall Orderlies at our
risk. Two sizes, 10c and 25c. Sold
only at our store-The Rexall Store.

His Hilarious Outburst.

There is doleful looking but sub
stantial Scot living in London whose
business ability is above the average,
but everything he does is done with
the glum and melancholy air Of a man
constantly wrestling with some prob
lem of the soul. He rarely speaks un-
less spoken to. He never smiles. and
his eyes have a fixed but intense ex-
preston. One day he was returning
to London with several companions.
The whole party were Scotch. but the
glum mans companions were Of genial
type. One Of them told a humorous
tale. over which the rest laughed up

Debating Societies Aided by State
UniVerSitV.

In an effort to aid debaters and debat-
ing societies throughout the state, the
University of Wisconsin extension divi-
sion has just prepared a series of TWEEN
ty-fve debating bulletins. These ex-
plain the organization and procedure of
debating societies, state the principles
of effective debating and include brief
summaries of the affirmative and mega
tive points of many debating topics of
current interest.
Live subjects, such as the postal saw
ings bank, the parcels post, woman
suffrage commission plan of city gov
eminent, simplifed spelling, closed VS..
open shop, income tax, the recall, in
crease of the navy, ship subsidies, an
nexation of Cuba, independence of the
Philippines, free text books for schools,
restriction of immigration, popular cleo
ton of United States senators, tariff on
trust made steel articles, federal char
tiers for interstate business, the initia
tive and referendum, proportional rep
resentation, and the inheritance tax are
included in the list.
Each bulletin opens with a definition
and explanation of the topic treated
followed by short history of the de-
velopment of the movement, and its
present status. A synopsis of argu
ments for both the affirmative and neg
ative sides, arranged with sub topics
and full lists of references follows

A WOhaM AND A CHECK.
Mrs. Black Was Not Absolutely Help

Mrs. Black Was Not Absolutely Help
less In Money Matters.
Some few persons still cherish the
idea that all women are absolutely
helpless in business matters and that
they are so lacking in financial ability
that they cannot safely be trusted to
handle money
Mr.. Black belonged to this class. He
had been in the habit OF paying all the
household bills at the end of each
month, and his wife, though allowed
unlimited credit, had never had an al
lowance. One day the Blacks hap
pened to be passing the comparatively
new building in which the bank was
situated.
do you know. john" remarked
Mrs. Black. 81 have actually never
been inside the bank since it was built
more than two years ago"
"You haven'tw exclaimed John. "If
that's the case l guess I'd better give
you check this month and let you
pay the bills. Do you think you'd
know how to cash it,"
Mrs Black received the check.
which, by the way, happened to be an
unusually large one that month.
That evening Mr. Black asked, not
without sarcasm, If she had succeeded
in indorsing it properly.
ooh. yes" returned Mrs. Black
cheerfully.
"How many bills did you pay?"
"None. 1t seemed a pity to waste all
that money paying bills"
'Then what in the world did you do
with it?'
"Oh," returned the little woman Sc
renely. II just deposited it in my name
and opened an account of my own with
it,"

Big Gain in Attendance in College
i'm Agriculture.

III ASI ISuIIuL ~
Over 430 students are enrolled in the
College of Agriculture Of the University
of Wisconsin for the four year courses.
The growing interest seems to be pro
nounced in the four year course ana
increase in this course is more RAPID
than in the two year middle course.
The increase in freshmen in agriculture
is about 60 per cent as compared with
last year, and there are comparatively
few students who attended last year
who have not returned to continue their
work this fall A large number have
entered with advanced credit from
other colleges.
It is noteworthy that the students is
expected to provide adequately for the
increased attendance.
Among the up to date machines now
being installed is new homOgenlzer
for the commercial preparation OF mod
flied milk and other products. Expert
ments will be conducted with this new
machine and students given practical
training in it's operation.
Several new instructors will soon be
appointed by the regents to assist in the
dairy laboratories.

prizes won by members at the leading
state poultry shows. The secretary
was instructed to write to the several
show secretaries and solicit from them
inducements to the Orpington club to
make large displays The matter OF
judging brought forth a spirited dis
cussion, one member favoring the
"score card" system, but though the
others were a comparison body, 1t
was not considered up to the club to
dictate to any show association which
they thought best. 1t was optional
with exhibitors, and show associations
knew which was best for their organ
izations All the club could do was TO
ask special inducements in the way OF
specials, and ask the show manage
mont to appoint capable judges to pass
on Orpington classes
Then the matter of club stationery
and an emblem were taken up, but al
ter some discussion the matter was
left in the hands of the publication

FEEDING IN LITTER

Wherever practical, hens and pullets
should be kept in separate houses
Pullets will stand much heavier gram
ration and keep in fine laying condl~
ton than will the hens. If the two
are housed together and fed enough to
keen the pullets in fine laying condi-
tion, the hens will become too fat, some
of them will die of apopleXy, others
will "gO light" and by the time warm
weather comes the older portions OF
the flock will be decimated by dls-
eases of one sort or another, but all
caused by overlooking. On the other
hand, if the flock is fed to Keep the
older hens in laying condition the pulc
let's will not lay until the advent OF
spring. -.
Deep litter in the poultry house or
scratching shed has come to be regard
ed as an essential requisite Tor the
flock of winter layers. But deep litter
loses it's value unless the caretakeh
stirs it up from day to day and Keeps
it loose and in condition for the mems TO
work over If this is not done the
litter becomes packed and heaVy anu
the chickens will work 1t o lly IN Il
half-hearted way, deriving little or no
advantage. Two or three lncheS Oh
fresh straw. changed two or three
times a week, is much better IN the
poultry house than a foot OF strdW
that is left lie and only shaken up ana
moved as the hens move it. we are
persuaded that if the farmer mao IL
his practice to bed down his chickens
every two or three days with fresh NJ
fer. as he makes it his practice TO
nightly bed down his cows and horses,
the light litter on the poultry noors
would equal the deep litter. we want
the hen to scratch in the little, not to
pack it down.-Wallace's Farmer.
