THE HIGH SCHOOL.
The trouble with certain men is
that nothing is real' to them unless
they can see it or have absolute proof
of its existence, says the Salt Lake
Tribune. Sir Waller Scott, when in
the height of his fame, wrote a jeer
ing letter borne to bcotland from
London, telling of a crank that was
trying to impose upon people by say
ing that he could light the great city
by burning something like water,
He did not believe in the possibility
of illuminating gas. When Prof.
Morse stretched a wire around the
, capitol at Washington and actually
demonstrated that he could transmit
messages with the quickness of
thought, an incredulous congress
turned its back upon him and refused
an appropriation to enable him to
make a demonstration over a longer
distance.- And congress in those
days hart among its members some of
the brightest intellects.
In the same way there are men in
this citj , men . who have attained
their present honorable position by
their own exertions, who cannot see
any especial benefit to come from
maintaining in its efficiency our pub
lie schools, the apex of which is the
high school. That was the way men
talked of the magnetic telegraph.
"Suppose it can, do what the vision
ary inventor says it can, what of it?'
When, through the enlightenment of
the then postmaster general, the line
"was finally stretched from Washing
ton to Baltimore, and when a little
later the passengers on the first train
from Baltimore, after a certain can
didate had been nominated for presi
dent, congratulated themselves that
they would carry the news to the
capital, found on their arrival that
the news had been fully distributed
through the city hours before their
arrival, the first flash of the possibili
ties of the new invention swept over
them. In the same way the public
schools supply the lines over which
the mind begins to send its messages.
Their province is to teach young
minds to begin to think and to sup
ply the first rude lines over which
those gathering thoughts can find
expression. They are the only as
surance of which this country has of
a future. When the first leaves of
the book of knowledge are committed
to memory, when by the light which
comes through them the possibilities
of what there is beyond, and what
may be gained by the patient worker,
are made clear a transformation
comes to the soul of the child. His
self respect is awakened, his ambi
tion aroused.
Again, it is the nature of man to
struggle toward some ideal goal.
The goal in the thought of the poor
child in the lower grades is a diploma
from the high school. Take that
from him, or degrade its glory in his
eyes, and half the incentive to siudy
and to honorably strive will be taken
away. On the other hand, exalt the
high schcol still more and his strug
gle will be still greater, and that
struggle will make him a stronger
and better man all his life. Degrade
the high school, and not,, only will the
child ren lose, their incentives, but at
the same time the city will be dis
graced and earnest men with families
will cease to come here to make
homes.
All a fellow has to do to run a
newspaper, says an exchange, 4s to
bo ab'e to write a poem, discuss the
tariff and money question, umpire a
baseball game, report a wedding,
beat a lawyer, saw wood, describe a
fire so that the people will shed their
wraps, make one dollar do the work
of ten, shine at a circus, address hor
ticultural societies, test whiskey,
abuse the liquor habit, measure cal
ico, subscribe to charity, go without
meals, attack politicians, defend the
national platforms, sneer at snobbery,
wear diamonds, invent advertise
ments overlook scandals, praise
babies, delight pumpkin raisers, heal
the disgruntled, fight to a finish, pub
lish doctor's resolutions, denounce
a !awj-er, set type, mould opinions
sweep me omce, speaK at prayer
meeting and stand in with everybody
and everything.
PETTY ECONOMY.
The Cielcmneai of Storing: Up Bome-
bold Odd! and KndH.
It requires an exceptionally wise, ju
dicious person to know where to econ
omize and where to spend. It is fre
quently the way of thrift to spend with
a lavish hand because the return justi
fies the expenditure. The woman who
laboriously darns a ging-ham apron
when she can make a new one in half
the time and when the material costs
less than ten cents is decidedly wasting
her efforts or estimating- her time at
the same standard as the work of the
Chinese coolie. The mended' apron will
not wear one-quarter as long as a new
one, and it had better be devoted) to
dust cloths or to some of the purposes
of cleaning where an old rag is required
The picking up of pins is certainly a
doubtful economy. No one can tell
what infection may be conveyed in a
pin, which is quite likely to be rusty.
A pin is certainly worth less than the
time taken to pick it up. Where ii is
in the house or in a place where it may
become a small instrument of torture,
it is wise for humanity's sake to pick it
up, but not for the sake of its value.
Almost all of us have some pet econ
omy. Some people will hoard old
dresses of wool which they have no
time to clean, and which would not
be fit for wear if they were cleaned.
The result of this hoarding is an in
teresting collection of moths, which in
vade the house and destroy much furni
ture and valuable clothing, together
with the worthless. It would be diffi
cult, however, to convince the person
who was devoted to such economy that
it was in fact an extravagant whim that
she was gratifying. 7
The hoarding of newspapers may be
classed among the same extravagant
fancies. The newspaper is the thing
of an hour, and is succeeded'in a day by
another. While there is frequently val
uable reading matter for a scrapbook
in them, the entire papers take up too
much room to be kept by the ordinary
reader for anything but waste paper.
They merely collect dust. -J
Of all absurd things that may be
hoarded the saving of fruit and vegeta
ble cans, except to paint and use for
flower-pots, is he most absurd. An j
old tin can is usually a menace to the i
health. It is not fit to cook in, though
it is sometimes employed for that pur
pose, nor is it fit to keep food in after
the inner surface is exposed to the air.
It is never fit to be used a second time
for canning. After opening a can its
contents should be poured out at once
into an earthen dish, and never left to
stand in the opened can. It is a fool
hardy practice to leave such tin cans out
doors, because they are liable to rust,
and a cut from a rusty piece of tin is the
common cause of that dreaded disease,
lockjaw. There is the same danger in
using unpainted tin cans for keeping
plants. Their sharp rusty edges may
cut the hands when the cans are moved.
A hundred such petty economies are
indulged in by thoughtless women, who
imagine that thrift can come from such
foolish hoarding. N. Y. Tribune.
Jelly Roll. '
Six eggs, one cupful of powdered
sugar, one cupful of flour, sifted1 three
times; the grated! juice and rind of half
a lenion. Stir the six yolks with half
the sugar 15 minutes, then add- the
lemon. Beat the whites to a very stiE
froth and! adidi slowly the remaining
sugar while beating constantly. Then
add. the yolk mixture to the whites.
Beat three minutes and add. the flour,
stirring it in lightly. Line a large shal
low tin pan with brown paper, but do
not butter it. Pour in the mixture,
spreading it evenly, and) bake in a quick
oven. When done lay a- piece of paper
on a board, dust with sugar and turn
out the cake into the paper. Remove
the paper from the bottom of the cake.
Then spreadover quickly some jelly and
roll it up in paper and.' let it lie till-cold..
To dee jelly rolls mix one cupful of
sifted! powdered sugar with one tea
spoonful of lemon juice and two table
spoonfuls of boiling water. Spread
this over the roll. I have never seen
it Iced with cream. Brooklyn Eagle. .
