that all other plants were named low

Swat the Practices.

Under the above caption the North
East Star makes the following timely
remarks on the swattiug business. that
will apply to other places than just North
East:
.'We hear much about swatting the Ay
and screening against the mosquito; but
more efficient methods to get rid of these
pests are to be found in swatting the
practices, and the people, if need be,
that are directly responsible for the in
crease and multiplication of these pesti.
ferrous purveyors of disease. Foul and
filthy conditions, stagnant water. decay.
ing vegetation, when permitted about
ones premises, serve but as breeding
places for the pests that are not merely
annoyances and nuisances, but are seri-
Gus menaces to health. Clean up and
keep clean. And those who can clean
up. aud will not clean up. ought to be
made to clean up"

Tho star Arcturus.

It Is probable that the star Arcturus
is one of the six greatest Of all the
stars in the. sky. Notwithstanding its
brightness. it is so far away from us
that it Is not displaced In position in
the slightest measurable degree, as we
change our position 1S6.000,000 miles
in our annual journey around the sun
Could we be placed midway between
Arcturus and our sun we would re-
ceive thousands of times more light
and heat from the star than from our
sun and this Notwithstanding that the
stars radiation is smothered by a
dense blanket Of metallic vapors. In
spite of its immense distance the star
is drifting slowly in a southwestward
direction over the face of the sky, its
motion changing its apparent position
by an amount equal to the diameter
of the moon in the course of about
1000 years. So great an apparent mo-
ton must indicate an enormous veloci-
ty in space.

The Campaign To DlscredIt Mr..
BRYAN.

Harper's Weekly has done good
thing in printing Mr.. Lowry's article on
wilson's Right Hand Man" and its
own editorial on Bryan.
If there is one piece of meauness
which the enemies of the present Adj
ministration have been guilty, of more
despicable than another it is the attempt
to make Mr. Bryan uncomfortable in the
Cabinet by persistent reports of antagon-
ism between himself aud the President,
and general efforts to discredit the Sec
rotary Of State.
The object of these reports, Of course,
is to injure the Administration. They
come from men and sources hostile to
the President. II Bryan and the Presi-
dent were really at odds with each other,
these individuals would be greatly
pleased. They would probably prefer
Mr.. Bryan to be in the Cabinet rather
than ont of it, III those circumstances,
because he would be more of disturbing
element in than out But the reason they
spread these reports is chiefly because
Mr.. Bryan and the President are working
so we'll aud so effectively together; Mr..
Bryan has been such strong and force
full aid to the Administration that these
people want to get rid of him.
All this talk of his ignorance of state
affairs; this harping upon his Chautauqua
engagements, as if every administration
has not had some Cabinet member who
was confessedly its spokesman before the
people; all the talk of his alleged gauch
cries and bluaders, spring originally from
those interested in making Wilson's adj
ADMINISTRATION failure. 1t is thing mag
nifcently to Mr.. Bryan's credit that he
has not allowed these most shrewd
manipulators to turn him from his atti-
tude of sincere devotion to his chief.
Mr.. Bryan is said to be unpopular in
Washington. Maybe he is. But he is
popular with the country. 1t was Presi-
dent Wilson himself who called attention
to the fact that Washington public opin.
ion is an erring and injurious thing, and
who said that the only way he could
keep his administration straight was by
getting public opinion to come from the
outside into Washington and not by
sending the Washington opinion out into
the country. Perhaps that was one OF
the thugs he had in mind in choosing
Mr.. Bryan for his right-hand map. and
IF so it has worked admirably. BALTIC.

sleepwaIkers.

Many years ago an archbishop OF
Bordeaux attested the case OF a young
ecclesiastic who was in the habit OF
getting up during the night in state
Of somnambulism. and. taking pen, ink
and paper, composing and writing bis
sermons. When he finished one page
he would read and correct it. In order
to ascertain whether the somnambulist
made use Of his eyes the archbishop
held piece of pasteboard under his
chin to prevent bis seeing the paper
upon which he was writing. but he
continued to write on without being in
the least Inconvenience.
1t is related Of Negretti, sleepwalk-
er, that he would sometimes carry a
lighted candle, as if to give him light
in his employment but on bottle be
ing substituted he took it and carried
it without apparently noticing the diff
ference.

Moral Education In public Schools

The question of moral education in the
public schools is becoming vital one in
many sections Of this country and Of
other countries That the American
school can exert greater influence in
promoting highsr ethical standards than
it does at present is the opinion of many
of the thinking men and women of the
nation. Speaking on this subject. the
Milwaukee News says:
Recently, gentleman from London
has been giving series of lectures on
this subject in our city. Indeed. he has
been covering the entire United States
during the past several months, coming
as the representative of the Moral Edn-
cation League of London.
He maintains that moral education,
the education of the heart, has been neg
lected in our schools, and that the mind
has been made the subj sct of improve.
ment and that character has been almost
wholly lost sight of In democratic
state, especially, he maintains that this is
national calamity.
"Of course, moral instruction should
be nonsectarfan. 1t should maintain a
strict neutrality toward all religious faiths
This, of all things, would be absolutely
required by the very genius of our insti.
tutions.
1T might not be necessary to redirect
education away from mere business and
Intelligence, but greater emphasis should
be given to moral instruction.
INSTRUCTION in abstract notions of right
and wrong, regard for the feelings OF
others, for the feelings of dumb animals,
for reverence to age, these are few Of
the many subjects which might properly
engage the attention of our teachers.
The Institutional body is now required to
be of good moral character. Would the
teaching of some of The fundamentals Of
that requirement be incompatible wit h
the spirit of our institutions? The belief
is strong. and is surely growing. that it
would not.
"The subject has its dangers But they
are not considerable. The instruction
can be properly safeguarded. The reli-
gions rights and beliefs of no one need
be invaded. And this. perhaps, is the
greatest fear to be met.
"The absence and the need of charact-
er in our public education is SO apparent,
that the proposition to give.some of the
fundamentals of moral instruction comes
to US with peculiar force and a strong
appeal"
