Our Schools.

Another school year is in pro-

sand teachers and educational
officers are again striving to in
stuct eighteen million boys and
girls and men and women attend
ing our various schools. Anoth-
er budget of nearly five hundred
million dollars is being expended
for another years maintenance
OF our institutions of learning.
A few comparisons may aid TO
ward a clearer conception of the
enormlty of this amount of mon
ey that we are annually expend-
ing for our educational system
Exclusive Of the cost of material
additions in land, buildings. re-
pairs and general equipment.
this direct cost Of operating our
intellect-producing plant is equal
to one and one-fourrh times the
amount We spend annually for
sugar and coffee. or twice our
yearly expenditure for the sun
port of our War and Navy de-
partments.
The equipment which we have
established for the generating of
mental illumination is valued at
one per cent, of the entire ma
tonal wealth, or twice the value
OF our telephone systems, or ten
tunes the value of all our Pull |

tenth the total value of all our
railroads. The number of teach I

The Illinois Farmers Institute
Bulletin is carrying on an energetic
campaign for the awakening of the
farmers to the need of vocational edu-
cation and for the use of more intel
ligent methods of farming for the CON
servation of the soil qualities. One
fault of Illinois farming, as tersely
stated by the bulletin, is that I'VE
have exercised our brains too little
because of our fertile, tractable SOIL
Negiecting the saving of the soil is
like killing the goose that lays the
golden egg. Every farmers son ought
to have a thorough education in the
scientific methods of treating land for
the increase of its producing qualities
and the conservation of its fertility
There is real merit in the suggestion
that some of the money that is being
spent to make doctors and lawyers
should be spent on the making oil
more scientific farmers.

ELEcTRoLYsls OF WATER MAINS

In a suit by water company
against an electric street railway com
pany to enjoin the latter from injur-
ing its mains and service pipes by
electrolysis, the evidence showed that,
while the escape of electricity from
the rails to the water pipes and con
seauent injury to the latter by cleo.
trolysis could not be entirely prevent
ed In the system used by the railway
company, it could be so lessened by
means suggested and used elsewhere
as to practically prevent serious in
jury. The United States circuit court
in passing on the case holds that 1t is
the legal duty of defendant to prevent
such injury by all reasonable and
practical means; that 1t would be en-
Joined from continuing such injury
but would be free to adopt within a
reasonable time such means to that
end as it should think proper, court
of equity having no power to prescribe
by injunction the use of any particu
lar system, even though the system
in use results in the destruction Of
the pipes of water company. In the
| course of its opinion the court sets ou
methods to prevent electrolysis uset
by different street railway companies
and also those advised by experts
Numerous definitions of electrical
terms are given.

Why LAWYERS DON'T CO.

There has been all along considerable
doubt, in the minds of laymen at least,
as to the future condition of members
of the legal profession. 1t may be that
the following lines throw some light
on the subject. They were written
forty years ago by Michigan gen,
tleman at the time of his admission
to the bar:
The devil came to the earth one day
And into courtroom took his way,
Just as a lawyer, with very grave face
Was proceeding to argue the points In
case.
Now a lawyer his majesty never had
seen,
For to his dominion none ever had
been;
" tbs the fault of my agents" his
majesty thought,
THAT none of these lawyers have ever
been caught"
And for his own pleasure he had fel,
a desire
To come to the earth and the reason
inquire.
Now, when the nfsl lawyer nap colns
to close,
The counsel opposing him fearlessls
rose,
And heaped such abuse on the head
of the first,
That he made him a villain, OF al
men the worst.
Each claimed he was right and ths
other was wrong
They spared and contended ant
argued so long,
That, concluding he'd heard enough o
the fuss,
"old Nick turned away, and sclilo
quized thus: +.
"They have puzzled the court VIII
their yillainous cavil,
And l am free to confess they hav'
puzzled the devil
My agents were right; let lawyer
| alone.
If had them. they'd euchre me out 0
my throne"

A short time ago it was impossible
to see many people without hearing
the question: do you think it ever
will rain AGAIN." And now it is:
aWell, it just seems to rain all the
time, but suppose it is good for the
country; It's making the pastures
grow. isn't it? When it's hot, we
want it cold, when it's wet we want
1t dry. Nothing ever satisfies"
We see The Gate City Is anxious
to see the frost on the pumpkin now
that the fodder is in the shock. but
He who rules the frost knows that
there are more green pumpkins than
ripe and that another week is neees-
sary to save the sanashes, and to let
us get a little good from the tomato
vines that are doing so well since II
began raining

NOW, AS TO "DoPE.p
How the Word Slipped Into General
Use Through Variant Guises.

Chicago Tribune: One man says to
another. Il think so and SO gave me
the right dope.'' He means that he
has been given accurate information.
The person to~whom he is talking SO
understands him if he has kept UP
with the progressive English language
Not so many years ago dope was
an obscure word, seldom heard, it had
only few meanings. 1t could be used
Of any thick. semiliquid pastry thing
for eating thick sauce or cruel. a
mixture of pitch, tallow, ETC., put on
the scles of shoes to keep the wearers
from slipping on moist snow was also
known as dope" So, too, was an alb
sorbent material such as cotton waste
suitable for holding thick liquids
There the dictionaries stop. They
have refused to record or have been
unaware of the rich development Of
the word in recent years.
The first sep was in calling opium
when prepared for smoking dope
That was not an illegitimate use, fol
the smokers opium is pasty, viscous
substance. Then, where it had beer
customary to call a man IAN habitua
user of opium" it seemed shorter tt
call him dope fiend." Next came
the verb ito dope"-to put drugs II
q persons drink to stnpefy him ant
make robbery easy. Then FOLLOWED
easily enough the metaphorical use
What kind Of dope are you giyins

an attempt was being made to deceive
that false information had been i'm
