thought is given to the insane, and most
people consider their whole duty done when
they have paid the tax required of them,
aad never interest themselves sufficiently to
imjuire whether lhat tax has been judicious
ly expended in providing proper accommo
dations, comfort and treatment to the most
helph-sH v fal! human beings. those depriv
ed at the tame time of the right use of their
reason, and with no estate. It may be safe
r j ly asserted tiiat not one person in fifty ever
tives any thought or expresses any anxiety
in rvfireiice to the condition of the insane
in their county alms houses, contenting
themselves with the reflection that they
have done t'ipir part in helping to elect the
Direc tors ot the Pot to whom the care of
theinsaneas weii us of tbe other poor is
: committed. The Directors elected Lave as
j little knowledge on the subject as their
I neiitr.lors and have never given any more
j thought or attention to tiie matter than the
i other members of the community, and it
'. cannot ise expected lhat the fact of election
as a Director will place an individual in pos- f
session of a greater interest in tbe insane o:
a greater knowledge of wh3t they may re
quire. The general expectation is that the
Directors will administer the trust reposed
iu them in the most economical manner,
saving as much for the county as possible.
While i: is greatly to the credit of all inter
ested that public funds sboull be expended
in the most judicious and economical man
ner, it is well to consider that there is a
point at which economy may become par
simony, or worse, it may become extrava-

Literature was taught with Heading, and
the eiemehts of Natural I'hilcsophy, Gener

regular lessons termed 'General Informa
tion,' always an interesting exercise. Thir
ty mere tiers in two classes studied C S. His

the study of local tocography, aad training

pupils fortht use cf tbe school are qnite
cmlitahle and accurate. They are not only
fine secimens of pen-drawing, but wiil also

LiUrnry Society. One of the ruost interest
ing features of the school was the literary
society organized at the beginning of the
term, conducted by thr pupils, and aided
and directed bv the teacher. The me. tinzs
were held every Friday afternoon, and
prove 1 interesting to pairons, as well as to
pupils. The willingness and earnestness
w.th which all performed the duties assign
ed them made the exercises, a means of lit
erary culture tbat could i.ot well be secured
in any other way. The la-t ejecting was
held on the evening of the IS h of March,
in tbe presence of a large and appreciative
audience.
The Loral Iiulkulr. The teachers of the
southwestern part of the county held an in
stitute at T'rsinaon January 2!t'u and SOib,
which was well attended by directors, pa
trons and pupils. Trof. Tbeoilore B. Noss.
of California, and Rev. J. n. Zinn. of Glade,
gave interesting evening lectures, while
Prof. J. C. Weller. A. S. Flannigan, and G.
W. Daniels, with other teachers, directors
citizens and scholars were present, and sid

the exercises interesting
Educational meetings of any kind, when
properly conducted, are alwsys a benefit to

Public Eentiment and syrnpathy is one of
the ruot potent fetors in the progress of

of securing that public interest and co-op- i

i earnestly deire. If we would have onr

Capitol to the National Ob-
servatory, ol permanent exposition. In
this the exhibits of the arts, industries and
resource of toe Kepublic could be gathered,
and the States and Territories should have
pirmission to erect permanent buildings in
which their contributions could be placed.
Space would also be granted to the govern
ments of Central and South America to do
likewise, thus presenting in Washington a
miniature view of the greatness and resour
ces of the western hemisphere. The plan is
to prefiare for such a celebration in lssfi, to
be subsequently enlarged to a more com ore
hensive exhibition in Isi.2.
At a meet hi ' for the discussion of this
subject a committeeman wanted to know,
tirst, what the District of Columbia would
do. Another replied that it is not proposed
that the disfranchised citizens ol the District
should contribute a cent to the proposed
Exposition. They were like children who
were permitted to play in the government's
back yard.
Auolher thought that the best exhibition
the District could make would be to show
its own helplessness. It was needed as a
bad example. Washington was simply a
resting place for the government, being ue
yoted to department work and .social excite
ment. There is no industry or commerce,
and it is needed, lie had observed that all
the tine statues in the city were of army and!
navy officers. There is just cue that of
Uobert Fulton and bis model, in the Capi
tolrepresenting men whohavedone some-;
thing to advance the industrial interests of
the country. He thought that if an exhi
bition such as the one propoed was held,
it would stimalate energy and trade through
the country. If the pe-.iple could come to
Washington and there see the resources of
the various states and territories, it would i
help them. !
Dr. Loring indorsed the project of the per
manent Exposition, because he believed in
industry as a stimulant to enterprise. The
District is the place where a man can
come to learn the most. It is true that
there are no milis, no strikes, no prospect
of them, unless members of Congress strike,
and no industrial controversies. The in
dustries of the country are represented in
Congress. Nownere can the diverse indus
tries of trade and industry be studied so ad
vantageously as in Washington.
Senator Frye, of Maine, expreeses himstif
warmly in favor of a permanent exposition
in Washington. The city, he says, is in
itself a permanent exposition for the educa
tion and edification of the people of the
United States, and of the world. Every in
telligent move for its improvement and em
bellishment has tbis in view.
j The proposition to change inauguration

will, i. ia hojnsd, soon receive attentive con
sideration at the hands of our law-makers.
It is becoming luore and more evident with
every year tbat the present limit of the al
ternate or "short "' session ot each Congress
leaves insullicieiit time for the transaction cf
necessary public business. Congress assem
bles early iu December, and, aiiuo. t before
it begins any work, there comes the Chri-t-raas
vacation. Then it is the middle of
January before work is iairiy resumed, tlias

mination ot tiie session, le result is nasty
and i!!.consiiered legislation, appropriation
bills rushed through without inquiry, or de
feated without due examination, and gener
al and unsatisfactory and unsafe disposition
of ttie jieopie' aiTairs.
It would be a very great improvement in
every way if the tiofiog day of Congress
were set back to April 30, thus giving some
sixty days more to the session, and alfcrd
ing opportunity for material improvement
in the volume and quality of legislation.
That would be a much better time in
which to celebrate the inauguration of our
Pr.-sidcnts. also. Tbe -ith of March comes,
ss a rule, at tue most disagreeable period cf
the year. Every inauguration day attracts
greater crowds to tbe capital, and there is
every reason why the occasion should be
transferred from the inclement month of
March to the last of April, when gracious
and balmy weather may be reasonably ex
pected. Thre will not be many changes of resi
dence on the 1st.

And everyone needs to put
their system in good condition,
to suard against disease thaf
'may give you serious trouble
during the Spiing and Summer
months. Simple remedies are
generally what ' is needed. We
carry a very superior stock of
Drugs and Medicines,
and guarantee the strictest pu
rity. We make a specialty of
filling physicians' prescriptions
and family receipts. None but
the Purest Drugs dispensed.
We endeavor to keep in stock
everything that is usually wan
ted by our many customers,
but anything we may not have
will be ordered in at once, on
short notice.
But to change the subject.
You may be ruptured, and if
so, we can supply you with
Trusses and Support-
Ct'S at prices much below those
in the city, or, as we do all of
our own fitting, can safely say
that a perfect fit will be guar
anteed. Three-fourths of the
Trusses sold do not give satis
faction, because they are im
properly fitted to the body.
14 We have a private apartment
in connection with our store,
for the proper fitting of these
goods.
Trusses for men, children and
ladies always in stock. If you
have had trouble heretofore in
getting fitted give us a trial
i ianii wo veil, eniamntpp a fit. or
! money refunded. Do not for-
u i get that we have a most com-
lplete stock of Spectacles
" and Eye-glasses. Eyes that
i others have failed to tit, are the
, ,
i ones we want to try. Always
j
f call at my store when in town.
-You will be welcome, whether
il ; you buy or not,
If we do not
ii keep what you want, it will be
is a pleasure to tell you where
" ; vou can get it.
