Beau RrummsI,s Dress.

Evidently we must not believe all
that we have read OF Beau Brummel
There were stories that he appeared In
"a dove colored coat and white satin
inexpressibles:" that 1t took two art
lists to make his gloves. a special ex-
pert being assigned to the thumbs. and
that he had three hairdressers who spe-
cialized. so to speak. on the different
parts Of his head. All these stories. Il
seems. are fiction. according to Leon IL.
Viucents "Dandies and Men OF Let
iers:"
Simplicity and unobtrusive elegance
we're his ideals. To attract notice by
conspicuOusness in dress was in his
opinion the most notifying expert
rnce that a Gentleman could have.
Byron told Id Hunt that there was
nothing remS8able In BrummePs
dress except a certain exquisite pro-
priety. From which it may be inferred
that his reforms were OF a sensible
sort"

"FaiIed In English"

It is recorded that of 8S5 boys who took the entrance examination for Harvard this year, 257 per cent fail ed, against 12.7 per cent in 1906, most of this years reactions being for deficiencies in English. No doubt it is becoming more and more the habit in this country to talk what is known as United States.
 Many of the young men who are appointed every year to West Point and Annapolis are rejected because of their failure to pass the required physical examinations. but more of them fail in the mental tests, par ticularly because of their deficiency ill English. Business men report their poor success ill finding High school graduates wbo can fill poos:- tions requiring a reasonable know l-tlee of English. the speaking and spelling of it.
 The question is one which shoul., challenge the attention of teachers and school officials. It will not do to attempt to substitute United States for English, at least until the United States language gets beyond the for native stage.

Patronizs Home Merchants.

The retailers Of Omaha have a Just grew
ance In the periodic invasion by so-caled ''itin-
Grant" representatives of out-of-town houses
seeking to sell goods here at the seasons Of
brisk business without maintaining any perma-
nent establishment Objection is made, and
rightly. that this is not fair competiton-not on
account Of the character OF the wares offered or
prices. but because OF the representation that
exclusive OF newer-style articles may be thus
obtained, when the latest styles In the same or
superior quality are constantly carried by our
home merchants at prices as low. II not lower.
Having grappled with this problem them
selves without satisfactory results the retailers
have put the solution up to the newspapers, but
all newspaper can do In the matter is TO point
out to the public what the condition is. and try
to make local buyers realize that It is not to
their interest to patronize the itinerant. Omaha
retailers, OF course appreciate the fact that
some trade in every town goes outside. usually
to larger city, which loss is counterbalanced
by trade from other towns coming In. But this
is distinctly different from the representa-
tive-wil- MISUNDERSTANDING" system.
These itinerants. however, will not continue to
come In unless they do n profitable business,
and there will be no profit to such business IL
our people will only look around and let them
selves be convinced that our own all-the-year-
around merchants, constantly accessible and al
ways responsible. meet all their demands
with up-to-date wares and as good, or better,
values for their money

Old School Problem AVain.

Mrs. Ella Fiagg Young. superintendent OF
Chicago's public schools has again raised the
alarm over the large percentage of children who
fail to complete the elementary course and turn
aside from school entirely as soon as they can
get from under the requirements of the law.
She reiterates what has often been said about
the misfit OF the school curriculum to the pupll.
The fault. she contends, is In attempting 10 III
the child TO the school. instead of the school 10
the child.
II has long been contended that right along
this line lay one OF the most serious problems
with which popular education has had TO deal.
1t is easy enough to fit the school work to the
unusually bright boy or girl. but not easy 10 az
IL to the dull one. Hence the effort has been
TO strike common level for the average, ana
this is q TASK that so far has taxed the most
skiilful and ingenius
But now comes another light on the subject
Chicago has In progress public exhibition, the
director Of which has made the rather startling
asserting that nine-tenths of that city's school
children have physical arflietions that interfere
with their work in the class rooms. The most
common ailments are adenoids. defective eyes
ears and teeth and enlarged tonsIls. He de-
clares that 1880 children repeated their grades
last year and that 81 per cent OF these were
physically unsound.
II Is certainly possible. and perhaps proba-
BILE, that there is a connection between the dis
covery Of Mrs. Young and that OF the health ex
hibition director. Perhaps. after all. the CHIEF
fault does not lie in the abnormaiity Of the
school course 50 much as that of the child, which
Is subject TO correction.
