University regent, teachers, students and graduates are all Interested now In "university beautiful" for which the first shot was fired last Wednesday night when Architect Rutin, who draw the plans for the medical college, waa the guest of the faculty at the regular monthly dinner. The building on the university grounds hav been thrown together In the past with little regard for systematic beauty with the result that today the campus looks exactly like what It Is, a patchwork, the various buildings Indicating the gen erosity or the parsimony of legislatures. At the dinner when the matter of a more beautiful university was discussed Mr. Bryan suggested that the university should be moved further out of the city limits, where mor land could be secured at reasonable rates, and all started over again. Governor Phnllenberger was of the opinion the university buildings and grounds could be sold for a sufficient sum to make a good start on a new institu tion throughout. The regents know now that the grounds are entirely Inadequate for the growing needs of the state and that further growth Is 'almost Impossible In the present loca tion because of the exorbitant prices oharged for adjoining grounds. So It Is very likely that an agitation will be started to secure new grounds either at tho state farm or In some other location and movo the institution. NEWS FROM K E4HXBT XOItMAI,.

An Innovation in American educational rrethods Is contemplated by the Chicago Board- of Education by the establishment In the public achools of a course of lectures to teach children In a scientific manner what now they usually learn only by ex perience, with resulting Injury to their moral and physical beings and detriment to the communities In which' they liv. Social hygiene, as the new study 1 to be termed, is now a prominent feature of the curriculum of the schools of Germany, ac cording to Dr. Alfred D. Kohn, a member of the Board of Education, at whose sug gestion, together with that of Mrs. Ella I'Hagg Young, superintendent of schools, th school management committee took up the question. Every member of th committee favor th introduction of th subject, report th Record-Herald, but they hav not deter mined how to establish It In th achools and how to teach It. To aolv this prob' lem Theodore W. Robinson, chairman, ap pointed a subcommittee, composed of Dr. Kohn, chairman; Dr. John Guerln, Chester M Dawes, Dean Walter T. Summer, Mn. Ella Flagg Young and two women and tvo men district auperintendents to b selecttd by Mr. Young. The subject ia discussed in an article o "Boclal Hygiene In th School," prepared by Dr. Kohn for th December issue of the Educational Bimonthly, a school board pub lication. In his article he say: "For over a century th question of whether w should Instruct our children on this all-important toplo lay dormant, but of lat a number of circumstances hav again brought it prominently to th front. These are. In short:.. ' "Th constant flocking from the country and small towns to the great cities, and the great increase in tile of these cities. "The spread of scientific knowledge in wider and wider circles. "The strengthening of th social con science through the medium of the presa, women's clubs, social settlements and pub lic medical lectures. "The widespread knowledge of the social evil and the realization of th dire conse quence thereof. The time for concealment, hypocrisy and false modesty Is past, and It has become the duty of the whole com munity to stamp out the evil that Is sap ping our body politic and social to the roots." Mr. Young declared that a committee of district auperintendents had found a woe ful lack of knowledge among children, aha said, and It wa her opinion that ignorance la th direct cause for th downfall of the majority of girls who go astray. "I believe Dr. Kohn'a suggestion would strike a body blow at the white slave traf fic," she said. "Tho fact that th whole educational sys tem of America has Ignored tills thing up to now doesn't mean that w shouldn't touch It," said Mr. Koblnson, "but It means that we should be careful." "I desire to be careful," answered Dr. Kohn. "It Is a deliberate subject. I be lieve th time to begin the instruction of social hygiene should be In the last two years of high school. Th boy and girls' classes should be separate. Th lectures should be cltar, concise and to the point. There should be no attempt to wax too scientific, but hard facta should be driven hwme plainly that they may sink deep.' DEFIAXC'IS OF AVTIIOHITV. Manifestation of Lark of Pnrental Discipline. Commenting on the 'strike" of pupils of a local -high school, th Cleveland Plain-Dealer say: Tlii unpleasantness In one of Cleve land's high schools may be considered as a local manifestation of a more or less general rebellion of childhood against authority. Th old fashioned discipline of the home and th school ha passed away. That doctrln of absolute obed lence may have been unduly harsh, but it waa far better than the spirit of rebel lion that ha succeeded it in so many places. Allowed unreasonable freedom at home, nothing la mora natural than that children should demand the same liberty from their teacher. "Strikes" fol low. Cleveland' I not th first, nor perhaps the worst. Every few day on reada of some school rebellion, boys and sometime girl "walking out" rather than submit to this or that condition. If th public achool fall to teach obedience to authority they fall In a very large part of their duty. But they can. not teach It w ithout the assistance of the horn. It la well for th public to bear these thing in mind when such Incidents a this Wast High school "strike" arise. ILLINOIS WOMAN'S COLLEOB. Observance of Third Anniversary of Fonndluaj.

The entire board of regent of the Uni versity of West Virginia will spend a fortnight next January in- studying the organisation, equipment and educational methods of the University of Wisconsin.

Efficiency of ' Vscssm Cleaning; Planta In School Rooms. A grammar school principal writing In a recent number of the Elementary School Teacher makes th following statements regarding the efficiency of vacuum alr cleanlng plants In schoolroom sanitation. School boards will b Interested In them: The vacuum cleaner sweeps th school house mor rapidly than brushes can do It. It sweep cleaner than brush or broom. It doe away with any dusting necessi tated by sweeping, for it raises no dust. It suck the dirt and fine dust of the school room through hoso and pipe Into a closed receptacle In the basement, where they are destroyed by fire. It auoka dust and dirt from place Inac cessible to brush or broom. It enables th Janitor to sweep at any hour of the day when corridor or certain room are not In use. It ia the ideal method for cleaning a school Building after the dismissal of the pupils. The government Is committed to the pol icy of educating our children. If it pays for it to educate the ohlld. It is certainly worth Its while to protect his health to make that education useful later In life. In every large school building now being erected or to be erected in th future pip ing for vacuum cleaning should be in stalled tho same as for water and lighting service. School buildings already in use could be equipped In th same way a If TIKfam or hot water heat were to be In stalled.

Flnlajr hid-., iwiti aud Ir.dtaua ave., Kansas Cay, ivr r 1 - A BOLD To overcome the well-grounded and reasonable objections of the more intelligent to the use of 6ecret, medicinal compounds, Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., some time ago, decided to make a bold departure from the usual course pursued by the makers of put-up medicines for domestic use, and so has pub lished hroad-cast and onenlv to the whole world, a full and complete list of all the ingredients entering into the composition of his widely celebrated medicines. Thus Dr. Pierce has taken his numerous patrons and patients into his full confidence. Thus too he has removed his med Icincs from amonji secret nostrums of doubtful merits and placed them In a class all by themselves by making them remedies OF KXOWJV COMPOSITION. By this bold step Dr. Pierce has shown that his formulas are of such excellence that he Is not afraid to subject them to the fullest scrutiny. Not only does the wrapper of every bottle of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, the famous medicine for weak stomach, torpid liver or bilious ness and all catarrhal diseases wherever located, have printed upon it in plain English, a full and complete list of all the ingredients composing it, but a small book has been compiled from numer ous standard medical works, of all the different schools of practice, containing very numerous ex tracts from the writings of leading practitioners of medicine, endorsing in the strongest possible terms, each and every ingredient contained in Dr. Pierce's medicines. One of these little books will be mailed free to any one sending address on postal card or by letter, to Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y., and requesting the same. As made up by improved and exact processes, the "Favorite Prescription" is a most efficient remedy for regulating all the womanly functions, correcting displacements, as prolapsus, anteverston and retroversion, overcoming painful periods, toning up the nerves and bringing about a perfect state of health.

Governor Probes Liquor Charges Will Carefully Consider Charees Against Omaha Officials Before Giving- Answer, "Befor I make reply to the charge filed with m against the mayor, th chief of polioe and member of th Fir and Police board of Omaha by the Anti-Saloon league I shall give th matter careful consideration," said Governor Shallen- bersrer durinir his visit In the cltv.

The complaint against th city official waa filed under the Sackett law by E. E. Thomas, Senator W. H. Patrick and L. D. Holme. They allege that the liquor law ha been violated In many places and that the city officials, although notified of con ditions, have made no effort to enforce the statutes. "Th charge were only filed Friday," continued th governor, "so I have had little time to Investigate. It would not be right for me to bring quo warranto pro ceeding against th men until the matter has been thoroughly sifted. I shall prob ably answer the petition of th league next week." Mra.
