The curriculum of the rural school, it is alleged, is planned to send the pupil as ‘rapidly as possible to a High School. This end is attained in con- tradiction to the malfunction of the country school, which is to furnish its pupils with as thorough and com- plete an education as possible, fitting them to understand and deal with the conditions by which they are sur- rounded An editorial in a recent issue of The Farmer’s Advocate. dis- cussing the character of the rural school. says that even advanced pu- pils display inability to apply their knowledge to practical affairs. Pro- ceeding. The Advocate says: “Beyond any question the Public School influ- ence drives the country youth direct- ly in large numbers to the town. It fails to give them any appreciation of the advantages of rural life and nature or to fit them to be more successful in rural pursuits. Such a statement. from a source so well-in- formed on the subject. is strong evi- dence that the general trend of instruction in the rural school cannot be in the right direction. Fifty-eight per cent. of the Whole school population of Ontario. accord- ing to the Report of the Provincial Department of Education. attend its country schools. Only five per cent reach a High School. Consequently an exceedingly small proportion of the scholars attending rural schools receive any other school instructien. This condition of affairs 18 not in it. self unsatisfactory. On the contrary country schools should give the best possible education to children who live in the country. The point em- phasized beyond all controversy is the importance of the rural school. It is not to be supposed that there are not trustees. inspectors and teachers connected with the rural schools of Ontario who appreciate and aid in carrying out the preper work of a country school. The main difli culty seems to be that the country school has not been regarded as an end in itself, but on the contrary has been treated as preparatory to a High School. It is not urged that rural education should be placed on alower level than it is at present. It should be made a better education inspired by other ideals. which, to be effective. must be felt by trustees and inSpectors' as well as teachers. The country Public School, as it ought to be, is one of the most power- ful training insuuments. if n0t the mom powerful training instrument, in the educational policies of a na- tion.â€"Toronto News.

Some starling charges have been made in connection with the manage- ment of the Grey County House of Refuge at Markdale. The Grand Jury at the Owen Sound Assizes, made a presentment to Mr. Justice Magee last week, which has been for. warded to the Provincial Secretary’s Department in which they state that in their opinion, the real object of tire institution has been lost sight of in the desire to make a good financial showing. 9 “To particularize,’ says the pre- sentment, we find the inmates have not been supplied with either butter or sugar, which, we consider, two of the necessaries of life, and which, naturally, would be much missed by these aged people We a1!) find that. instead of receiving good, fresh milk for their porridge, skim milk only is furnished them, although several cows are kept on the prem- ises, and butter and cream are being otherwise disposed of We find, also, that vegetables grown on the premises are being sold, insread of being used in the house for the in- mates, as they should be. These, we think, are the principal causes of general dissatisfaction prevalent among the inmates, which might be easily remedied.” "We find there is a dark hole or room in the basement without proper ventilation, light or heat, into which the manager forcibly places any of the inmates who disobey orders, or who show the leasn sign of insubor dination. This practice, we submit, should be discontinued.” ' The presentment concludes by re- commending "that the manager in charge of this institution should in all cases use good human judgment and tact, and at all times temper justice with mercy.” THE COUNCIL TO BLAME. The presentment concludes as fol- lows zâ€"“Injustice to Mr. Harness, the manager, we wish to State that he is practising much of the unwise economy complained of under in- struction of a committee of the County Council.“ “The practise of enforcing the at- tendance of every inmate to worship in the chapel at the dictation of the manager (who has his own peculiar creed to maintain, and who is often the only preacher available) should be abolished by the manager. Greatest Female Strengthener on Earth. Shocking Treatment of Inm Grey House of Refuge. “The bedrooms are locked early in the morning so that: the inmates have no access to them. and have no other accommodation than to lounge around on hard board benches, or on a few hard-seated kitchen chairs. This we think should be remedied by procur- ing a suitable number of cushioned rocking-chairs and a few inexpensive couches. The attention of the Inspector of IIOSpitals and Publi : Charties will be caiied to the matter. Thou-sands of women are wan, pallid, run down and dispirited. What they need is that nourishing tonic, Ferrozone. Soon they regain those laughing eyes, bright spirits and rosy cheeks. Ferrozone does this and more as Mrs. L. F Adrian- son of Whitney Pier. 0. B., testifies. "My daughter was very much run down and had considerable trouble at times. Often I was at a loss to know what to do. I was advised to give her Ferrozone and I did so. Ferrozone cleared up all the trouble, made my daughter healthy and Well. Ferrozune gives good appetite, , regu- lates, strengthens. I consider it a medicine every woman should use regularly if she wants to feel her best.” Price 500 por bex at all deal- ers. Frequently you pick up one of the local papers and after glancing at the headlines wearily thrust it aside, remarking, “Nothing in the paper to-day.” Did you ever stop to think what that phraseâ€"“nothing in the paper to day”â€"-means? It means that in that day or week just past passed no misfortune has befallen anyone in our town ; that no fire has wiped out a neighbor’s worldly goods, that the grim angel of death has crossed no threshold of a friend ; that no man driven by liquor, hatred, or fear has taken the life of a fellow human ; that no poor devil haunted by the past or the misdeeds of some other has crossed the great divide by his own hand. So the next time you pick up a paper that doesn’t announce a tragedy give a little thanks instead of grumbling because there is no news. The question of how to cure a cold without unnecessary loss of time in which we are all more or less inter- ested, ior the quicker a cold is gotten rid of the less the danger of pneu- mania and other serious diseases.

News.) THE DURHAM OHRUN lCLE of There is so much Rheumatism here in our neighborhood now, that the following advice by an eminent au- thority. who writes for readers of a large Eastern daily paper. will be highly appreciated by those who sufi- er : . Get from any good pharmacy one- half ounce Fluid Extract Dandelion, one ounce Compound Kargon, three ounces of Compound Sarsapanlla. Shake these well in a bottle and take in teaspoonful loses af er each meal and at, bedtime; also drink plenty 0f good water. It is claimed that there are few victims of this dread and torturous disease who will fail to find ready relief in this simple home-made mix- ture, and in most cases a permanent cure is the result. This simple receipe is said to strengthen and cleanse the elimina- tive tissues of the Kidneys so that they can filter and strain from the blood and syszem the poisons, acids and waste matter, which cause not only Rheumatism, but numerous other diseases. Every man or wo- man here who feels that their kid- neys are now: healthy and active, or who suffers from any urinary trou- ble whatever, should not hesitate to make up this mixture, as it is certain to do much good, and may save you from much misery and suEering after a while.
