WASHINGTON LETTER
Chatty Gossip About The New Secre.
tary of the Navy; Miss Alice
Roosevelt’s Trip,—-Senator
Lodge’s Horsemanship;
Freaks; etc.
: From our regular correspondent,
Washington, D. C., March 12.
The President will not find it
necessary to introduce his new!
Secretary of the Navy in Washing
ton, as Representative Moody, of
Massachusetts, who has been
chosen to succeed Secretary Long
has been a member of the House
for nearly eight years and has a
wide acquaintance in this city. Mr.
Moody is a handsome bachelor on
l the sunny side of fifty and has
; been on the eligible list of many
Washington match-makers for a
| longtime, but so far as known, Dan
Cupid has never been able to wound
him. He was a chum of Senator
Lodge at Harvard and the two
have been friends ever since, and
some think that fact played a part
in his being asked to enter the Cab
inet. Mr Moody and Representa
tive Gillett, of' the same state,
have jointly occupied a fine suite
of bachelor apartments at a Wash
ington hotel while Congress was
in session for several years, and it
is not probable that going into the
Cabinet will change his manner of
living
Miss Alice Roosevelt’s departure
for Havana, where she will spend
several weeks as the guest of Gen.
and Mrs. Leonard Wood, with a
small party of friends, including
Mrs. Harriet Blaine Belle, daugh
ter of the late James G.Blaine and
divorced wife of Truxton Belle,
and Capt. Phillip, of the navy, is
much regretted by the young set
in Washington society, who have
thereby been made to realize for the
first time that this is Lent.
The cartoonists and the para
graphers frequently lall down,
but they never fell down harder
than when they represented Sena
tor Lodge as awkwardly bobbing
up and down on the back of a
horse in his effort to keep along
side of his friend, the President.
This has been a source of no lit-
tie amusement to those who know
that Senator Lodge is one of the
best and most daring cross-country
riders in the U. S. and owns a
splendid chestnut mare, with a
pedigree a yard long, and is the
the holder of a whole bunch, of
prize blue ribbons, won at exhibi
tions of saddle horses. It was
this mare that Prince Henry rode
when he went riding with the
President and both of them got a
thoroughly plebeian wetting in a
storm. Senator Lodge was one
of the best riders of the famous
Myopia Hunt Club, and one of
the founders of the Chevy Chase
Hunt Club, of which he is still an
acting member, and. unless he
has lost it, he has a scarfpin re
ceived as a trophy, from the hand
of Mrs. Cleveland, when her hus
band was President, for getting in
fust in a long cross-country paper
chase on the Virginia side of the
Potomac. He has cause to remem
ber that ride, as he had a bad fall.
His horse in jumping a brook
sank both fore feet knees deep in
quick sand and threw Mr. Lodge
about twenty feet. He began rid
ing when he was nine years old
and has always kept in practice.
The Italian government, which
once had its Washington represen
tative quartered in two rooms over
a grocery store, at last to be
housed property. It has purchas
ed the house of Mrs. Phoebe
Hearst, long known as one of the
most elegant in Washington, and
considerable portion of its artis
tic furnishings, and as soon as the
title is passed the Italian Embas
sy will move in. It is understood
that the price is something like
$200,000. Mrs. Hearst is in Cali
fornia and her Washington friends
fear that this sale means that she
will never live here again.
More freaks can be found in
Washington at any time than any
museum manager has - ever been
able to get together, and it doesn’t
cost a cent to see and hear them.
What do you think, for instance,
iof a lawyer who has been practic
| ing in Chicago for twenty-five years
and who has made sufficient repu
tation to have a case in the U. S.
Supreme Court, who didn’t know
the name of the speaker of the
House nor which party was in
control? Representative Bell, of;
Colorado, discovered this freak,;
wandering around the hall of the
house the other morning. And,
again, what do you think of a
member of Congress, who says he
would like to have the small pox? j
This freak discovered himself. He

of Texas, known at home as “Thej
Black Eagle of Piney woods.” A
group of fellow members were ex
pressing their dread of the disease
and several of them were nursing

vacciuated, nut Mr. De Graffen
riedsaid: “There is nothing in
it that will hurt you. I would
like to have it. After the disease
has run its course you will feel
better ever thereafter.”
There is another class of freaks
in Washington who are nauseating
to those properly constituted, and
they have been very much in evi
dence since Prince Henry’s visit.
One them offered to give $5,000
for a little diamond pin that the
Prince gave the head waiter of the
hotel at which he stopped, and
the fool-waiter refused the offer,
although the actual value of the
pin does not exceed SIOO. The
waiters and chambermaids of this
hotel and of the German Embassy
have made a lot of good money
selling these freaks what pur
ported to be souvenirs of Prince
Henry’s visit. And such souven
irs! Even the towels he used, or
that the servants say he used, have
been cut up and sold to these
crack-brained freaks. The Menu
cards for the White House dinner
have sold as high as SSOO.
There is some curiosity express
ed as to how Lt. Powell Clayton,
Jr., U. S. A., son of the Ambas
sador to Mexico, who has been
detached from that Embassy and
assigned to the calvary stationed
at Fort Myer, just across the Po
tomac, will be received by his
brother officers and by Washing
ton society. He got into a wran
gle with a Mexican several months
ago and was challenged to fight a
duel. He declined, on the ground
that it was against the U. S. army
regulations; was expelled from all
the clubs in the city of Mexico
and generally sent to Coventy.
His father had to have him trans
ferred. The officers at Fort Myer
figure pretty extensively in Wash
ington society, but whether Lt.
Clayton will remian is to be seen.
Duelling is, of course, very wick
ed, but the average man or woman
would rather have their friends
wicked than —something worse.
Getting Ready For Faster.
The time is fast approaching
when the season of rest and quiet
and Christian reflection and with
drawal from the world —called the
season of Lent —will be over, Eas
ter comes early this year —March
80th.
Already there’s a stirring in
trade circles making ready for the
spring, because Easter ealls for
new hats and bonnets, new gowns
and dresses, and an “Easter suit”
Sackcloth and ashes are soon to
give away to gay clothes, and re
joicing—fasting to feasting.
Lenten observers are becoming
more and more general each year,
which is a good sign. There ought
to be a time for everything, and
there is no one who will truly ob
serve Lent but who will receive
moral and physical benefits. In the
short time that remains these ob
servances ought not to be forgot
ten. —Augusta Herald.

Never thought of such a
sign for a medicine did you ?
Well, it’s a good sign for
Scott’s Emulsion. The body
has to be repaired like other
things and Scott’s Emulsion is
the medicine that does it.
These poor bodies wear out
from worry, from over-work,
from .disease. They get thin
and weak. Some of the new
ones are not well made —and
all of the old ones are racked
from long usage.
Scott’s Emulsion fixes all
kinds. It does the work both
inside and out. It makes soft
bones hard, thin blood red,
weak lungs strong, hollow
places full. Only the best ma
terials are used in the patching
and the patches don’t show
through the new glow of health.
No one has to wait his turn.
You can do it yourself—you
and the bottle.

EDUCATION
(BY I.AIIY COOK, nee TKNEBBKK CHAFI.IN.)
To educate is to lead or draw
forth, to train and exercise applied
especially to powers of the mind,
the passions, affections, disposi
tions, habits and manners. Thus
every one is by the nature of tilings
and of necessity educated for good
or evil, and the faculties and feel
ings are led forth in one direction
or another according to the in
fluence brought to bear upon them.
A right cultivation is, therefore,
requisite to avoid weediness of
character. Mind and body must
be exercised from the earliest j
youth in virtuous and wise discip
line, or injurious tendencies will
obtain paramont sway. And this
discipline, like that military dis
cipline from which the notion is
derived, must be constantly ap
plied, must never be lost sight of
or relaxed until the whole is ma
tured and permanently formed.
Consequently a sound and com
plete education requires a long
course of such mental, moral and
physical culture as conduces to
the highest well-being and im
provement of the individual.
Unfortunately the circumstances
of the majority preclude them
from giving their children any
thing like an ideal course of edu
cation, even if they had the will.
These have to be content with the
merest rudiments. But there is
a large section of society who
have the means to provide fully
for their offspring, but neglect
this most important parental duty
through ignorance or apathy. The
former is to be pitied, the latter
probated. To bring a.child into
the world is a small matter, since
it lies within the easy reach of the
worst and the most foolish of
mankind. But to educate a child
aright requires much discretion in
the parents and profound wisdom
in the educators. Education has
j been more or hiss practised during
the whole life of humanity, yet it
is certain that the best system
lias never yet been devised. Re
stricted knowledge, religious and
social prejudices, and indifference
to progress, have stunted moral
and mental growth, even when
physical excellency was much ad
mired. In addition to which,
every system, ancient and modern,
has been mere or less conventional
instead of being based upon the
laws of nature and truth.
If we go back about 000 B. C.,
we find one of Solon’s laws for the
Athenians gave general direction
for their education as follows:
“The first institution of youth is
to be in swimming and the rudi
ments of literature; as for those
whose abilities in the work are but
mean, let them learn husbandry,
manufactures, and trades; but
they who can afford a gentile
education, shall learn to play on
musical instruments, to ride, shall
study philosophy, learn to hunt,
and be instructed in gymnastical
exercises. We’liave here a picture
by one of the Seven Sages of
Greece —a most intelligent, hard
headed old Pagan of the mental
and bodily education requisite for
the Athenian youth of his time.
The reciprocal and sacred duty of
children to parents was strongly
insisted on by the legislator. The
son who beat his parents or did
not provide for them waß to be
disfranchised and incapable of
holding any office, and to be im
peached before the magistrate.
So far back as the time of Homer,
his contemporary Hesiod, when
enumerating the evils of the Iron
age, mentions and disobedience
and disrespectful behavior of
children to their parents as one
of the greatest impieties, and;
which called to Heaven for ven-:
geance. No crimes were believed !
to be followed with more certain
and inevitable judgments than
filial misconduct, and other infer
nal deities were believed to be
always ready to execute the curses
of parents injured by their child
ren.
The laws of Moses were equally
severe. Thus in this and other
ways in those remote times, super
stition was invoked in the cause
of morality, and no grown-up son
or daughter could be disrespectful
to a parent with impunity. Tem
pora mutuntin: respect for age is
seldom seen; gratitude and obe
dience of children are by no means
common, and an English father
fears to chastise a youthful but
vicious son lest some Poke-your
nose-into-other-people’s business
Society should hale him before a
magistrate for cruelty or assault.
Is it any wonder, then, when
morals have no systematic place
in the home or the school, and are
barely recognized by the law, that
our hearts are unhappy; that our
streets reek with foul language;
that coarse louts lounge at the
corners to insult passing women,

and that young hoys and girls
learn the worst vices of adults?
I have no desire to depreciate
the great advance in education in
elementary public schools during
the last sixty years. But much
has been done during this period,
and especially during its latter
half, much more remains to be
accomplished. School Boards
and managers must not inagine
that anything like a perfect sys
tem has been reached. The Mar
quis of Londonderry in his excel
lent address to the London School
Board, said of the present range
of education;—“lts scope was
now no longer to endeavour to
instill into a small portion of the
children a rudimentary knowledge
of reading, writing, and arithme
tic, but to afford to all an efficient
teaching which would train the
mind, expiand the intelligence,
and improve the manners of the
rising generation. The question
naturally arose to what extent had
these results been achieved?”
This question, however, Lord
Londonderry felt unable to an
swer. But possibly the numerous
employer of the children who
have been educated in these schools
would not generally be able to
give a llattering reply, and nota
bly us to their manners. Nor is
this surprising if we remember
that the number of pupils hears
too great a ratio to that of the
teachers, and that the latter are
afraid to correct the unruly, ac
cording to their judgment. Con
sequently a mechanical system of
instruction has to be adopted, and
teachers and taught rarely ap
proach each other sufficiently to
have much moral effect on the lat
ter. Besides ,which clerical in
fluences are still strong to the de
triment of all. One of the Mar
quis’s colleagues, himself a cler
gyman, said: “The Board was
supposed to be doing a moral and
reforming work —they had intro
duced the sectarian parson as soon
as the sectarian parson came on
the scene the members of the
Board began tomahawking each
other over the souls of the child
ren. It made one ashamed of the
human race.”
Herein lies the crucial difficulty.
Clerical is jealous of its waning
power and struggles furiously to
maintain its old influence. But
the gulf between secular and cler
ical teaching widens daily.
True education demands early
and constant self-culture, indepen
dent thought, deep searching into
truth, with an everpresent reason
for the faith that is in us. It re

Belong to that class of inflammatory and disfiguring skin eruptions that

of poor digestion, inactive Kidneys and other organs of elimination are
taken up by the blood, saturating the system with acid poisons and fluids
that ooze out through the glands and pores of the skin, producing an inde

HAVING A RUN ON CHAMBEIi-
LAJN’S COUGH REMEDY.
Between the hours of eleven o’clock
a. in. and closing time at night on Jan.
25th, 1901, A. F. Clark, druggist, Glade
Springs, Va., sold twelve bottles of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. He
says, “I never handled a medicine that
sold better or gave better satisfaction
to my customers.” This Remedy has
been in general use in Virginia for
many years, and the people are well ac
quainted with its excellent qualities.
Many of them have testified to the re
markable cures which it lias effected.
When you need a good, reliable medi
cine for a cough or cold, or attack of
the grip, use Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy and you are certain to be more
than pleased with the quick cure which
it affords. For sale by
