Old-focrylsm and stagnation aio mental death. Nations, cities and individuals thnt progress are not "N alrnld to get out of the beaten path. The aggressive, earnest, intelligent man or woman is not bound by codes or dogmas. They think for them selves, and humanity benefits there by. As a class, the medical profes sion is clannish. The old school smacks of decny. Bleeding and blisteiing died hard, but died never theless, while homeopathy continues ., to pi ogress. The great Pasteur was not a physician, yet he blazed a pathway which thousands now glad ly follow. A few blight, active, pio gresslve physicians, who will not be bound by precedent, and who have the courage of their convictions, at a doing a gieat woik for theprofession as a whole. They believe that no man or school has absorbed all the medical knowledge obtainable, and when a scientific discovery is made that levolutlonizei a pet theory for the tieatment of disease, are willing to give It a fair tilal and abide by the lesults if favorable. Such a physician is Dr. L. M. Lander, of Chicago. Read and weigh the hon- est woids of this noted specialist: 'Several times during the past few years I have observed tho effects of Warner's Safe Cure in cases of Kidney Trouble. I found that tho action of the medicine was highly curative in effect, and that most desirable effects followed its faithful use. "I believe it to be a very fine romeily for Kidney disorders."

Teacheis' Local Institute Held in the High School Auditorium. Funeral of Sir. Edmonds Per sonal nnd Other News of Intel est. Satin day aftet noun, Mai eh lO.brought with It the second local Institute preg nant with good things. It was with out question the spiciest and best local Institute held for mam a j'eur, as the following pi ogt amine will corroborate this statement. The Institute wns called to older by Hon. F. It. Coyne, principal of Old Fot go High school nnd chad man ot tho etliclent local Insti tute committee. Ptof. Lloyd, pilnclpal of tho Dickson City schools, cave a verj practical talk on gtannnar, stat ing that tho inductive method should be norted to largely with beelnnots. Atithmetle. he said, was alwajs spoken of as the branch to develop the rea soning facultj'. AVhj should atith metle take all the honors when skillful teaching In grammar will elicit thu same amount of teasonlng, llpen the same amount of judgment as ailth metlc, ulgebia, geometiy or any othei blanch of mathematics. Grammar is the science of language. Mathematics we use sometimes, language wo use alwajs. After the talk a discussion followed In which Prof. Folej-, prin cipal of Tavlor schools, asked Plot. Llojd when the parts of speech should be taught. The professor replied that pupils at nine or ten had successfully begun the woik In this science. The county supeilntendent btated thnt the proper time to launch anj pupil into any btaneh Is when the branch Isl of lnteiest to him. Miss Getttude Slmmons.of Old Fotgo High .school, lead a papei on "Neat ness," a paper that would adorn the piogtnmmoof any countj institute. In pait, she said: "Neatness In the school loom begins with the appeatance ot the teachet. If she Is slovenly und dls oidetly in her appeatance, ull the en eigy spent by her In tiylng to convert her school room Into one of neatness is as good as wasted. I have in mind a teacher who was verj brtsht nnd endowed with many talents, i was veiv much sin prised upon heating that this piepossessing gill was not a successful teacher; in fact, petitions had been sent Into the school boaid demanding hot lemoval The veiling lailv Iniptessed me very much, she be ing amiable and seemingly possessed of strength of chatactei. A few months after I had lie.nel the complaints con cerning lui, I had occasion to listen to her loelte. As soon as she mounted tho platform and adtliessed the audi ence the mjsteiv concerning hei fail ure in tho school room unraveled Itself, for tho binding of her dtess was hang ing in tattets and a thiee-coineied lent could also be peicelved. If she neglected such un lmpottant thing us hei attire, what would she neclect in the school loom. Neatness Is piac lleed In eveiy phase of school work. Miss Black, of Wllkes-Barre, a noted elocutionist and n specialist in putnaiy leading, spoke at length on that lino of woik as it is ndvoeateJ by the Pol Until sjhtem. The woid aio divided Into families, theteby enabling tho child to lemembor classified things bet ter than to commit a lot of llfcles, unconnected things. pr0f. Lloyd btated in the discussion that followed that ha was not in tnvor of tho system because it did not tend to good c:Drosslon. Miss Sallle Pi Ice, of tho Dunmore schools, who, ever since her ilrst ap peal anc as a spoakei, has been very successful, fiaxo one of the choicest bits of llteintuio now extant, entitled "My Ships," given by request. Miss Cosgiove. ot Old Fotge High school, men followed with a paper bilmful of points to the ptlmary teach eis. In pan she said that she had compaied many woiks on the subject of lending, but the one which pleased her most was Colonel Patkei's, who stated that lending is getting thought from the minted page. We get thought by language In two ways, first by speken '.anguace: secondly I v tho pilnt"d page. I'sually the child has gained a knowledge of the former ho lm,, entetlng school. He has gained It by long and continued practice, and ho has in most eases learned to tnlk well. It is this power of language that wo should snivel to pieserve lather than obllteiate. We aio all acquainted witli bojs who know the lesson ve--batlm, who can stand up nnd ledf It with the book tinned upside down or closed. They lend the woids with out expression, consequently getting no thought. My only hopn with them Is supplementary reading and skillful questioning to elicit what they know about the lesson. Miss Louisa Nicholas, a talented lit tles taut of about 10 j'eais, delighted the, audience with "Mv Big Slstei's Beau." Dr. 'McConnon talked nt length on the all-ubsoiblng topic, "Vertlcul Wilt ing," claiming that It Is the only natuial way of wilting and produced pupeis to show thut a tpepd of twenty ono words a minute had been leachej by a 10-yeoi-old girl.
