phatic. If not elephantic cough you

Somebody is always asking us 10 pre-
scribe for cough. in spite of our rules
and regulations, and Notwithstanding
the fact that a cough is only Il symp
tom which comes from one cause in one
case and from Il very different cause
in another.
However. in order 10 appease the de-
mand and save the country. we here
present what we believe to he the most
efficient all-round cough medicine for
domestic use.
This Is the formula: citrate of soda.
one ounce: powdered lcorice, one alf
ounce; naNseed meal, two ounces; gly-
GERM. four ounces; chlorofornl. one
eighth ounce; water enough to make
one quart.
First boil the haxseed in the water,
gradually stirring ii in. After half an
hour let IT cool then add the lcorice.
the glycerin and the chloroform. Shake
the mixture thoroughly several times
in the course OF the day. The follow
ing day, strain through fine muslin and
keep tightly corked. The dose is a
teaspoonful every hour or two for Il
child over three years; for an adult a
tablespoonful every hour or two.
by the way. this cough medicine
never cures. II only helps to soothc
and relieve irritation.

$75c, Coo,oCO Spent
For Education.

In round numbers there were b.
100000 persons enrolled in educa-
tional institutions in the United
States in 1914, according to the annual
report of the commissioner of .edu-
cation just issued. OF these over 49,
100000 were in elementary schools;
1 ,374,000 in secondary schools, both
public and private; and 216,0O0 in
colleges and universities. Close to
another hundred thousand were in
normal schools preparing to be teach
ers, $1,000 were in professional
schools, and the remainder were scat
tered through other types of institu-
tons. The teachers for this educa-
tional army number zoe, 900, of whom
SCI, 900 were in public schools. In
point Of rapid growth the public high
school still presents the most impress
sive figures; the enrolment for 1914
is greater by over $4,000 than for the
year before.
The cost of education for the year,
as estimated by the bureau, was $780,
100000. "This three-quarters of q
billion is a relatively small amount
when compared with other items in
the public expense" declares the re-
port. at is less BY $SOO,O00,0OO than
the cost of running the federal gov
eminent; it is less than one-third the
nations expenditure for alcoholic
liquors; it is only a little over three
times the estimated, cost of admis-
sions to moving picture theatres in
the United States for the same year.
Measured in terms of products of the
soil, the United States spent some
what more for education in 1914 than
the value of its cotton crop, some
what less than the value Of its wheat
crop, and less than half the value of
the annual harvest of corn; while the
nations bill for education was less by
nearly hundred millions than the
value of the exports from the harbor
Of New York in the calendar year just
passed"
Very little increase is yet to be
noted in the average term for public
schools. Between 1910 and 1918 the
increase was from 1878 days a year
to 15s.1--a growth of only six-tenths
of day in three years. Attendance
has improved, however. The average
number of days attended by each per-
son enrolled increased from 113 in
1910 to 1855 in 1913.
Special subjects treated in this
years annual report of the commits
sioner of education include: The jun
ior high school; Monies sori schools
in the United States; denominations
schools; vocational education for child
nurture and hone-malxing; school
survey; and education for special
