Here is something to cut out
and paste in your hat: Every
little while we read in the paper
that someone has run a rusty nail
in his foot or other portion of his
body and lockjaw resulted there
from and the patient died. If
every person was aware of a per
fect remedy for such wounds uid
would apply it, then such reports
would cease. The remedy is
simple, always at hand, can be
upphed by anyone what is bet
ter, it is infallible. It is simply
to smoke the wound that is
brniaed or inflanod with a wool
en cloth. Twenty iniuutes in the
smoke will take in.- pain out of
the worst case of Inflammation
arising from such wounds. Peo
ple may sneer at this remedy as
much as they please; but when

Origin of Our Free Public Schools.
When the socialist! are charg
ed with pursuing an agitatiou
that would destroy every institu
tion, human and divine, that man
holds sacred, how many people
know that the proposal to estab
lish free public schools in this
country rirst met with the aame
sort of reception? And yet that
is a fact. The public school sys
tem caino into existence through
tho agitation of a group of (weav
ers, tailors, and mechanics iu
Philadelphia, Now York, aud Bos
ton. These workingmeu organ
ized a pa' ty iu 1m59 with "free
public schools, where the chil
dren of rich and poor alike can at
tend on an qual foot tig, " as its
chief demand. A public meetti g
culled to discuss this proposition
in Philadelphia at the old city
hall was broken up by the police
aud the speaker arrested aud
taken to j ul. And the New York
"KveuitTg Post' of that day called
on "tho bankers, tie preachers,
the merchants, and otho" respec
table members of society," to
Organise V) pot. down "this per
nicious agitatiou which threatens
to undermine tiie very founda
tions ot society " That must
sound very familiar to the readers
of certain metropolitan newspa
pers which habitually thrust for
ward the Socialist Hugaboo.
