BRYAN'S ADDRESS Mr. bri nn's .aper. the Lincoln Com moner, in its issues for last week contains in full Mr. Bryan's Thanksgiving address at Lmdon at the benquet given by Am hassador Ornate. The press reports at the time gave extract from the address Upon a careful reading of tha address in its co.ipleie and authentic form, w are hound to say th t it is even a mora credit able performance than the public sum mary transmitted by jable indicated, and the latter ha been universally favorably commented on. The English auditors noted the good taste of Mr. Bryan's re marks. They were both appropriate to the occasion and eloquent, there was in mem little suggestion ot partisan or the provincial ami much of philosophical and cosmopolitan conception, J- Not merely Mr. Bryan's nei ;'hhnr and personal friends, but also Americana will be k ratified by his dmplay of tact and (adaptability and the favorable impression he made on that notable occasion.

Beys and Clgexrettae. The tffcts of cigarette using bv young boys would be a startlirg reve lation to many of their mother if they understood the alarming proportions to which it hut grown ia this country. A magistrate in Harlem court, New York, iua.de the following significant d.Tli. ration the other day: Yesterday I had before ma thirtHve boy prisoners. Thirty -three of them are confirmed cigarette smokers. Today. from a reliable source. I have made the grewaome discovery that two of the largest cigarette manalacturers in this country soak their product in a weak solution of opium. The fact that out of thirty-five pris oner tnirly-lhree smoked cigarettes might seem tn indicate soma direct con paction between cigarettes and crime. And when it is announced on author ity that most cigarettes are doptd with opium, this connection is not hard to understand. The cigarette is to young boys vary mui-h like what whiskey is to grown man. If it does Dot directly causa crime j it at least accompanies it in nioa cases out of ten. It must be universally admitted that tha majority of young boys addicted to tha use of cigarettes are generally re garded as lawl boys. It is addiction that disss not ally itself with tha high virtues of manly youth. It leads to bad associa tfona and bad environment.

Teachers' ActaiMteau. A recant editorial on card playing and dancing on the part of teachers has pro voked considerable discussion as to whether teachers should refrain from at lending social functions of that character A few believe that they should not give up these innocent amusements simply because a portion of the community ha prejudices against tliem. They consider that it is really no on's business how they spend their eveniags. It may be that there is an unwarranted prejudice against these innocent amuse ments. It is highly improper, however, to say that it is no one's business how the teacher spends her evenings. It would, on the other hand, be most im proper for a board of education to take no notice of a teacher's outside conduct. The Union Pacific railroad, in making a rule against employees entering saloons in Cheyenne showed a disposition to interfere with the way in which theae men used their evenings. Many of these men do not drink to excess. Many do, The cases are mora nearly parallel than many girls are aware of. Tha superin tendent often sees the effect on the. work of the school. This excessive interest in these things does no'- in the least pro mote sweet tampers and pleasant waya during school hours There are a great many teachers who impair their ability Ui do the quality of work the board ha a right to expect. Where there is a strong sentiment in a community against these practices, a teacher practically destroys her influence for good by particiwting. In that case the hoard would seem to be justified in not reelecting the teacher. Nebraska Teacher. . Wer Bonnet Topics. Merry Christmas to vou all!
