Spanking does not cure children of bedwetting. There is a constitutional cause for this trouble. Mrs. M.

Don't blame the child. the chances are it can't help it. This treatment also cures adults and aged people troubled with urine difficulties by day or night.

spanish administration. With the open ing of American schools, encouraging both rich and poor, men and women to share in the advantages of educa- ton, the people entered upon a new age. After some initial opposition the girls were allowed to attend schools in practically all parts of the islands Education and observation of the GUS toms of American women soon brought the Filipino girls to a realization of the narrowness and injustice of the lives that they had been compelled to iead and it was only a short time be- fore their. habits and characters were showing the broadening influence of American ideals The employment of Filipino girls teachers clerks, sten- ographers, nurses and for other posi- tions as soon as they had received @ sufficient amount of educa ton served to instil in them a desire for freedom and for intellectual and political equal ity with men.
 Participation in debates with male students in high schools, in games of basketball, and in other forms of ath- letics all contributed their share to- ward the emancipation of Filipino women from the thraldom of unjust medieval masculine tyranny. A short time before left the Philippines the women formed an equal suffrage asso- citation. It has since gained consid- erable headway and the womens chances for ultimately gaining the vote are bright.
 Savages Being Reached
 Among the savage tribes of the Philippines. totalling about 500 900 peo- pie, the woman's condition is still very pitiable. I have travelled through sec tions inhabited by wild mountain peo- pie where women are little more than beasts of burden. Often I have seen those women compelled to bear heavy burdens while their husbands rode in front of them on horses. doing noth- ing to relieve them from their labor. The wealth of a Filipino savage is gauged by the number of wives he has, the presumption being that each addf- tional wife will be one more laborer to work his land The savage who has only one wife Is indeed poor, while the owner of eight or ten is a man of wealth and influence in the commun- ity. American schools, however, are making their influence felt in even those isolated sections of the islands and if political meddlers will give the American colonial government a falr showing the civilization of even these savage races of the Philippines will eventually be achieved.

schools in bamboo shacks 10 years ago, fine modern elementary and high school buildings of reinforced concrete have developed and are in all parts of the islands. Fully 30 per cent of the people can speak English, whereas during the 400 years of Spanish occu- patton only per cent learned to speak Spanish. The Philippine bureau of ed- ucation has proven itself one of the greatest educational institutions in the world.

 "Of course, American clothes cost a great deal more than the simple native costume, and in order to obtain them the Filipinos had to give up to large ex- tent their habits of laziness and thrift lessness, and to set to work in order to buy the clothes they coveted.
 The introduction of many other cus- toms and oonvenienees of the occident served to stimulate the industry of the people by adding to their wants and fore ing them to work harder in order to sat isfy their increased desires.
 Women of the Philippines
 "In the ma tier of dress the women of the Philippines have changed very little and the Filipino senorita Is never worried about changes in style. When the Spanish colonized the islands 400 years ago the Filipino women adapted the dress worn by the Spanish ladies of the time and they have been wear ing the same style of costume ever since.

It is to be hoped that the results of IT years Of remarkable progress will not be an- nulled by prematurely granting the Filipinos their independence.

Attitude Toward American Occupancy

Attitude Toward American Occupancy 'SIaniards and priests had so poisoned the minds of the Eilpinos against Amer jeans that it was at first difficult to con vince them that the new arrivals upon their forces were not vertable demons in human form. Few Fiipinos knew more about Americans than we did about them prior to the Spanish-American war and l think we shall all admit that that was very little. An amusing story told me by q Filipino illustrates the absurdly vague conception the people had of Amer jeans.
 This man told me that when-t the news Of the defeat of the Spanish fleet and the fall of Manila reached the town in which he lived the priest called the people to- gethor and told them that they must flee to the rouniitins as soon as the Amer jeans appeared. as they were cloven- hoofed cannibals, and would devour the inhabitants without compunction Tt was only few weeks before the American troops occupied the island on which lived the Filipino who related this story and as soon the people heard of their arrival they began to flee in ter TOT to the rugged mountain interior
 Curiosity overcoming his fear of the strangers, my informant decided to hide by the roadside and watch the Americans as they entered the town As he watched from the shelter of dense wood, the first living object that the Filipino saw round- ing q bend in the road was a large Amer 1can army mule. As he had never seen mule, he immediately jumped at the conclusion that it was an American He was so terrified that he started running precpitately toward the mountains and did not stop until he was completely out of breath.
 'His story so frightened the people hid ing in the mountains that it was scme weeks before the Americans could capture some of them and prove to them that they were not ferocious animals and that they did not wish to harm anyone.
 Changes Wrought by Schools
 After the establishing of American schools, wonderful changes began to take place in the social and economic life of the people. A knowledge of the broader lives of people in other countries and their gl eater opportunities for intellectual im- provement inspired in the younger Filipi- nos a desire to emulate the examples of their American instructors.
 'Substitution of American clothes for the meagre native dress was one of the first signs of the Americanization of the Philippines. In Spanish times very few F'ilipinos wore shoes or coats or collars or neckties. the native costume consisting

Teachers In the Philippine School

@Ciosely following the army and the doctors were the teachers Men and women, with no knowledge of Spanish nor Of the native languages. and absolutely ignorant of tropical conditions, went fear lessly into the jungle and distant islands to teach potentially hostile people the rndiments of an English education. The full extent of the trials and hardships of those first American teachers will never be known. Many of them went into sections never before visited by Americans, and upon them devolved the task O. establishing temporary sys- rem of government. This was in addition to their far from easy task of teaching people cf whose language and customs they were absolutely ignorant. They had the spirit of missionaries and the Amer ican faculty of adaptability, however and they soon became indispensable though hitherto unknown, adiuncts of the communities over which they had juris- diction.
 Not the least of the difficulties the teachers had to overcome was the oppo- sition of the church. The policy of the Spanish government and also of the church had always been to keep the masses in ignorance, the idea being that education would bring about opposition to the established order The defeat of Spain during the Spanish American war practically destroyed Spanish influence in the Philippines but the church remained the dominating factor in every commun- ity There were many so-called parochial schools in the islands. but they confined thenieelves almost entirely to teaching theological doctrines and theories to the children of the richer Spanish and Fill pino families. The education of the poor CT classes was almost entirely neglected, and it was considered a sin to educate girls beyond parrot-llSe knowledge of the catechism.
 ''Fducation progressed in spite of oppo- sition of the priests, for the minds or the people were gradually awakening to the knowledge that there was something broader in life than the intolerable. su- pey.stitions Of medieval religious sys- tenn.

{; }: t]
 From the period when Man first emerged from the dripping caves of pre- historic times when his only implements of peace and war were the bones from which he gnawed the raw and bleeding flesh when he was beast of battle and his female beast of burden; from these times when the star of human destiny hung quivering in the murk and plasin of primeval world; down through the enbattled centuries, when might was right, and the millions were ruled by the sword and lash even to the glorious years of our own era, when right is might when the few are the servants and not the masters of the many-and Man is com ing into his own Kingdom.
 Through all these changing cycles and centuries Larneds History of the World carries the spellbound reader, stir ring him, as 1t were, with gripping mem ories of pre-existence.
 Seventy centuries unroll themselves before his eyes. The hoary Pyramids yield up their royal secrets; Babylon and Asshur become again the hustling marts of trade; we behold the Children of Israel forsake their altars and cross, dry-shod, the Red Seas unveiled sands to the Promised Land.
 The glory that was Greece and the grandeur that was Rome dazzle us once again with their inefablc splendor Our hearts thrill to the solemn chant of the Crusaders as they stagger amidst the hush and silence of an endless dessert-on and on-to Jerusalem the Golden. *
 We view the mighty sea-rovers of the far North as they sail unrharted seas to lands unknown to man. We hear their battle shouts mingled with the shril screams of the cloud-rding Valkyrles-as Celt and Teuton go down in defeat
 The legends of Ancestral Europe arc enacted again before our very eyes. Charle- nagne and his paadins, King Arthur and his knights, Siegfried and the heroes of the Nibelung march before us in immortal pageantry.
 Powder is invented, and the classes begin to crumble before the masses. Print ing is vouchsafed from Heaven and the masses begin to achieve democracy.
 The dazzling star of Napoleon arises through the smokewreaths that encloud his cannon in the streets of Paris, blazes across the heavens with meteoric splendor and sinks forever beneath the desolate marshes at Waterloo.
 We fight anew the battles of our own Revolution we pass through the bloody baptism of the Civil War. Spain yields her priceless possessions to the Stars and Stripes. The birth of liberty in our neigh boring Republic of Mexico, guided and guarded by her elder sister of the North, is here described for the first time. From the Fall of Babylon to the fall of Vera Cruz, these matchless pages of our century's greatest historian, Josephus Nell son Larned, hold us breathless with the annals of all recorded history-and yester- days seven thousand years are imbreathed with the life of humanity TODAY.
