It is proposed to inaugurate a preâ€"vocational course, to conmsist of a modified course _ of the regular subjects on the school commercial or domestic training with a view to the aid of the pupils‘ fuâ€" An experienced director has been engaged to direct this department of the school board‘s wortk and ‘he bas already issued forms to all pupils in grades six and seven, asking for inâ€" fjormation as to the life plans . af wach. When answers have been _ tcâ€" ceived and classified the work of deâ€" ciding on the subjects to be taught will be taken up. t ‘That the curriculum of the present day school bas become overloaded is the contention of Robert _ Massey, who will have charge of the new deâ€" partment of educational effort. . ‘‘The aim in the old days was _ culture first, then utility. Later educationâ€" alists tried to bring utility to the front, at the same time preserving the culture subjects. We maintain that as much culture and _ perhaps more can be gained in learning woodwork or the art of printing than can be obtained from committing to memory the names of the wives of Hlenry the Eighth. *‘Give the young people . training for choice, and as they see . what wocation they like best they _ autoâ€" mmatically choose one for aiter life. They are literally watching â€" unconâ€" sciously for their own vocation and as they will see many branches _ of industry in operation will ultimately find where they best fit in." The conductors and motormen _ on the Berlin and Waterloo street railâ€" way have a reputation for courtesy that is well deserved. â€" Fortunately these cities have not yet reachad that stage of growth and traffic conges tion where a conductor has not the time to give a helping hand to the aged and feeble or to assist the motber and her children safely from the car to the street, a common ocâ€" currence on Berlin‘s municipal road. From Columbus, O., however, comes the news to show that no one city has a monopoly of street car courâ€" To 660 motor men and conductors were presented lately _ an artisticl bronze medallion on _ a black leather strap to serve as a watch fob _ and also a motto. On the face of the medallion are the words, ‘"Safety first;" _ on the back, ‘‘Be _ patient, courteous and attentive." It is re-1 marked in connection with the story, of this gift to employees that there: has been carried on arcampaign _ of education in Columbus, to induce the public to see the railway service men rightly as well as to make the men to understand their own position. To scold one conductor because another bas given one the wrong transier is unreasonable. The man who gives it mav bave becn rushed and he is alâ€" wa\s responsible for many things. Ceitatuly the man to wkom it is preâ€" scnted is guiltless, and must _ obey his ordets, which, of course, are to accept only the proper check. lt is astonishing how seldom one gets the wrong change on the street cars, and the mistake is quite as likely to be in favor of the passenger as of the conductor. ‘Therefore, the passonger may well occupy himself _ with the motto of the Columbus street tailway meon i( by chance he does find the handful of silver something short. His manner need not take on the same quality, for while two shortnesses may be longer than one, two migâ€" takes can never be added _ together aright.

It is also . a great year for Berlin, a city which caters largely to western trade. At the mecting of the Conference of | Veterimary Inspectors at the Exeter | Congress of the HRoyal Sanitaty Inâ€"| stitute of Great Britain, an interestâ€" ing discussion was held as to the relative advantages of public _ and . private slaughterâ€"houses. As a bill ' is about to be introduced into the House of Commons providing _ for more sanitary slaughterâ€"houses _ and more efficient slaughterâ€"house inspecâ€" tion, the conference felt it an‘especiâ€"| ally opportune time to point out the advantages of the public slaughterâ€" house. Among these are accessibility, cleanliness, facility of inspection and economy. The last mentioned is of the greatest importance. The waste in small slaughterâ€"houses is _ very great at certain times of the year, while in a public abattoir, provided with a cold storage plant, a great deal of meat can be kept which would otherwise have to be destroyâ€" ed. Then, large quantities of â€" offal can be dealt with at a profit, while small quantitics â€" are worth nothâ€" ing. Fresh hides collected from a large abattoir are worth more than if _ collected several _ days after slaughtering. The fat in public abatâ€" woirs is taken from the animal hot;, it is then washed and treated in bulk to be used in the manufacture _ of: margarine. In small private slaughâ€" terâ€"houses the fat can not be â€" so treated, _ consequently â€" the larger part is onlv useful for tallow. _ Fat is worth at least 1} cents more a pound for edible purposes than . for {tallow, and, taking the average | weight per dnimal at 43 pounds, this gives an advantage of about 66 cents | per head. Taking into consideration \ tho additional sum teceived for: ?c % offal from a steer costing, sav $105, § it has been estimated that _ the ‘| butcher would gain $1.89 it he made | use of a public slaughterâ€"house. Considered to have the most luxâ€" uriant and beautiful hair in New York Miss Rector says: "I find a certain pleasure in recommending _ Sageine as I know Sageine to be: a real beneâ€" lit to women. I bad a very hard time trying to dress my hair nice before I used Sageine. It didn‘t matâ€" tet what stvle the hair was being worn my hair was always too dry and lifelsss to dress properly. 1 sufâ€" fered with dandruf more or less and my hair fell out until it was thin and ragged.
