Work.
"To have spent one's youth at college
and be unable yto acent human efccllnc
unltM labeled 'or ticketed U a shipwreck
of the higher education," declare Prof.
E. J. Jame of the Illinois university, au
thor of "Pragmatism," in tha February
MeClure's. H continues:
"The narrowest trade or professional
training does something more for a man
than to make a skillful, practical tool vf
him It makes him also a judge of other
men's skill. Whether his trade be plead
ing at the bar or surgery or plastering
or plumbing, it develop a critical serine
In, him for that sort of occupation; . . .
aad setting to know this in his own line,
ha gets a faint sense of what good work
may mean anyhow. Bound work, clean
work, finished work; feeble work, slack
work, sham work these words express
an Identical contrast In many different
departments of activity. In so far forth,
then, even the humblest manual trade
r may beget In on a certain small degreo
of power to Judge of good work gen
erally.
"Now, what Is supposed to be the line
of us who have the higher college train
ing? Is there any broader line since
our education claims primarily not to
be "narrow' In which we also ar made
good judges between what Is first-rat
and what is second-rate only? What la
especially taught In the colleges has long
been known by the name of the 'humani
ties.' ... Tou are made Into an
efficient instrument ror doing a aeiinue
thing, you hear, at the Schools; but, apart
from that, ydu may remain a crude and
, smoky kind of petroleum. Incapable of
diffusing light Th universities and
colleges, on the other hand, although tbey
may leave you less efficient for this or
that practical task, auffuse your whol
mentality with something more important
than skill. Thoy redeem you, make you
well-bred; they make. 'good company' of
vou mentally. If they find you with a
naturally boorish or caddish mind, they
cannot leave you so, as a technical school
may leave. Su."

In the treasury report of Tale university
there Is a significant table showing the
cost per student in eaoh department of the
university and the amount received from
each student toward defraying the expense
of his education, says an educational
journal. The report shows In the divinity
achool n expenditure of 1699 per student,
with no receipts; In the graduate school.
IM.75 per student, wllh $44:99 receipts. Cor
responding figures In the other departments
oe: Academio department, $338.7J and
1162.89: scientific school. $274.29 and I166.M;
law. School. $216.47 and $126.28; medical
ichool, $247 and $122.14; art school, C57.M
and $71.97; muslo sohool, $240.88 and $123.34;
ind 'forest school, (477 and $109. It Is evl
lent from this that In no department does
the cost of th education offered by the
university come within the amount paid by
th student in the form of tuition.
Hardla College Theatrical.
- One of the most Interesting . entertain
mtmts ever given at Hardin college, and
the. first of Jts kind, was the Latltwcom
edy, "The Menanchml" Of Plautusv recently
presented by members of Mrs. , Million's
senior and junior classes in Latin, It will
be recalled that this comedy wss th source
of Inspiration for Bhakespeare'g . "Comedy
of Errors,"
Tho young women found themselves after
a little effort capable of committing their
lines lu Latin with much more sase than
they at first thought. Borne of them gave
evidence of real histrionic ability. Of
course suitable costume were provided.

A Model flrhool.
The school for observation and practlo
a part of the publlo school system of Phila
delphia, Is a rare and unique educational
Institution. It I designed to give to young
women who are studying to be teachers
actual practice In teaching, and the chance
to observe how pupils behave under such
strain. This I done by having the young
woman present In the classroom to wit
ness such teaching as conducted by an ex
perienced Instructor, and also by having
her actually do some of the teaching her
self. This school becomes naturally a part
of the Philadelphia Normal school at Thir
teenth and Spring Garden streets, where It
I held. It wa started about 1878 In what
waa then the high and normal school, at
Seventeenth and Spring Garden streets,
and when the normal sohool wss organ
ised as a separate school at Its present
location It went there.
Th children now going to this school
number 535, of which only 130 ar boys,
on th model principle, doubtless, of
"ladle first," even when they are only
prospective Indies. These children come
not necessarily from the district In which
the school happen to be located, but from
all over th city, and any child can go
who can get In.
If there happens to be a vacancy the
child who knowa about it soon enough to
ask fdr It first may have It; but there is
no waiting list, because anyone applying
on year would not want the same place
th next year or later, when the name
might be reached on the list. Such Is the
reputation of the school, Indeed, that many
who were on the waiting list would be old
men and women before It was reached.
Any child who begins In. the kindergarten
goe through the .entire eight grades, so
the only sure way to get tn Is' to begin at
the bottom. All who do get in except by
thi beginning have to stand an examina
tion, whether they are transferred from
other schools or not. v

Superintendent Maxwell of the public
schools of greater New1, Tdrk.1 strongly
urge th creation of a health department
In connection with the eohbbl. and his
recommendation have been favorably re
ceived. "The condition of modern city
life and of modern school life," he saya.
"tend to produce physical defect and dis
ease In children, which, unless remedied
at' the start, retard their progress in
school and diminish their usefulness and
happiness In after life.
"The condltiona of modern - city life
which tend to produce physical defects In
children are: Lack of exercise, city chil
dren seldom having to walk more than two
or three blocka to achool, and having lit
tle work to perform about th horn that
wow Id develop the muscles and breathing
capacity; crowding. In poorly lighted and
poorly ventilated apartment,, -which, re
sults In various forma of tuberculosis: lack
of space for free play lack; of Interesting
occupation outside of schoql hours; exces
slve noise (New Tork In Its crowded parts
being probably the noisiest city on the
glohejjj laSR of sufficient' steep, pwlog. to
noise ana excitement; insufficient or un
wise feeding, tea or .coffee, and bread be
Ing the principal articles of,, diet , in the
tenement house; uncleanly, habit of nr
son. owlKg td lack of bathing lacllltlea and
to lack of knowledge of th need ot soap
ana water.
"These condltlonstend to produce va.
rlous forms of nervousness',' lowered vi
tality, defective eyesight, v defective teeth
and probably' those growths in the nose
and throat which restrict respiration and
drive the child into reckless mischief and
defiance of authority.
"Though the school Is doing what It may
with lta present resources by physical
training, by games, by athletic sports, by
the maintenance of recreation center to
neutralise th vll effects of urban life
upon children; yet these resources are In
adequate because they do little or nothing
ior mose cnuaren who are suffering from
some physical defect.
"They are admirable and necessary for
those children rwho' are naturally healthy
ana vigorous; but what a fare It Is to
urge the boy who is weak through, tha
msumcioncy or unfitness of his food, or
who cannot breathe pflbperly because of
ournuiu frowmi in nis tnroat, to go In
for relay racing br cross-country runnlna
Th conclusion Is Inevitable; the urban
school can do but tlttlo for the child suf
fering1 from physical defects or weakness
engendered by modern cltyllfe until the
defects are removed or the weakness
strengthened; therefore Its resources should
be augmented by th establishment of
department of school hygiene."

they are here for a while and see the na
tural location, for a home, the beautiful
slope to the southeast, mgn and dry
overlooking tho Missouri river and the
west portion of Iowa, a good many change
their minds about high prices. This spring

the new Royal park on tne south city lim
its will insure a street-cur service as good
as any lines in Omaha, and raster service.

You Would Not Accept Coontorfoit
Money, Why Accept Counterfeit Goods
GOOD money Is made by the Govern
ment in which you have implicit faith
end confidence. Good goods are made by
manufacturer! who are willing to stake their
reputations on the quality of the material of
fered to you through the medium of their
advertisements in this paper. Counter
feit goods are not advertised. The reason
for it is, they will not bear the close scrutiny
to which genuine advertised goods are sub
jected. Counterfeit money pays more profit
to the counterfeiter. Counterfeit goods are
offered to you for the same reason.
