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 i3 Representative De Graffenried, 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 sore arms, where they had been THE BARNESVILLE NEWS-GAZETTE, THURSDAY, MARCH 20, 1902. 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. Repairing' Neatly Done 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. This picture represents the Trade Mark of Scott’* Emulsion and is on the wrapper of every bottle. Send for free sample- SCOTT & BOWNE, 409 Pearl St,. New York. 50c. and sl. all druggists. 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, lIAn Empty PH ~ X —always the same—always crisp, 1 tender and delicious.

(^scjanW 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.

The impurities or sediments which collect in the system because 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 scribable itching and burning, and “ I can cheerfully endorse your S. 8.

It encourages to accept boldly and without prevariation or reserva tion each truth as it becomes re vealed to us, no matter how it af fects preconceived notions. Hon esty in its very essence, facts its basis, development its. object, and nature its nursing mother. Thus no part of the whole man must he neglected. Our bodies must he improved and strengthened by ex ercises and wholesome habits, our prescriptions widened and purified by sound knowledge, our moral nature elevated by the cul tivation of loving kindness and subordinations of desire to duty. In this way and this only can education become a lever to raise the world and to afford mankind an escape from the entanglements of error and the oppression of misery by which it is still borne down in the struggle of advance ment. 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.
