of Society in the Next Century"
AS usual, he takes a very pessimis-
tic view and especially of the inhabi-
tants OF the United States, who. he de-
clares to be all suffering from neu-
rasthenia. He calculates that mad
ness increases in the States with
three times the rapidity of the in
crease Of population. and that this
malady will increase for divers rea-
sons.
He considers that the human brain
will become larger. but that the abuse
of alcohol will become worse and that
this in turn will be abandoned for
stimulants of greater power. He pre-
diets a time when all will be under
the influence of ether or morphia.

the first and only one.
What dothey teach?
The first year the pupils learn
to take scientific care of very little
babies, both well and, sick, and to
make their tiny garments. They
also learn story telling. Thinko of
that! They become familiar with
games and other simple amuse-
ments.
The second year they take up
hygiene with special reference to
the kindergarten age, child study,
the work of the trained nurse, the
principles of heredity and the
routine of day nursery work.
The third year they get deeper
into the study of hygiene with
eminent physicians to lecture to
them, and then venture into. the
field of mental life from infancy
to adolescence.
This is learning "mothercraft."
Probably it will be a good thing
for the fortunate kids who get
the trained mothers, though there
have been some very good, moth
ers in this world who didn't have
such advantages. 1t is. to be fear

A PERTINENT QUESTION.

III any candidate in the campaign
In Sumter county had upon his repu-
tation one-tenth Of the suspicion that
rests upon the Governors how many
votes would he receive? Would not
the almost uni, ersal comment be to
the effect that. while nothing definite
has been proved. no one who offers
himself for public honors has a right
TO have a reputation besmirched by
30 many damaging charges? Even
IL one had already served as an Off
cial he would stand very little chance
OF reelection in his own county, If.
not from one source but from many
sources. there should come charges
OF indecency and dishonesty. Citizens
would say that they would have no
right TO jeopardize the honor attach
ing to one of their Offices by placing
In IL a man who was under so much
suspicion. IL one questions the ac-
euracy OF this statement. let him place
in nomination before the people of
his county a man whose reputation
for integrity and decency Is not what
II should be. The result would re-
move any doubts which he may now
entertain. This is not only just, but
entirely becoming; for true con-
ception leads to the belief that ones
ballot belongs not to oneself hut to
ones county. State or country. One
has right to use II only that the
state may receive from ones ballot
pront nd honor. The same conccp-
ton leads o. the bclicf that public
effice was nevei intended 70 be used
as a means cf making a living; bit
an opportunity to serve ones State
and her interests.
IL these are the considerations
that govern one I'm declining to vote
for any candidate In his county for a
public etfice. why should not at least
SIZE same care be exercised in voting
for one who Is to occupy the highest
office In the gift OF the State? IL II Is
right. and II is altogether right. to
demand of candidate for county
office reputation of unsullied honor.
why Is u not right to demand in tones
no less imperious a similar reputation
