Maxwell, Superintendent ‘of the Public Schools of New York, from the elementary courses, TEMBER, The Board of Education has undermined the Maxwell ideas by a vote ‘Of 22 to 12, and in September, when the next school term begins, tho 85,000 fnew clilldron who will begin their schooling will not be taught sewing, drawing, organized games, physiology and such fads as have taken up their time, keeping them in the close echool rooms for five hours every day. But more attention will be pald to ill be kept in the school rooms three as the teaching of sewing to boys, that half-time classes, because of the over<rowded oonditon of the schools, would not be necessary, The blow to his ‘frills and fads" was ‘one that came unexpected to Superin- tendent Maxwell.

A Close Relation Has Been Established Between These Two Diseases. “Catarrh is clearly the cause of de- bility,” said Mr, A, H, Cosden, Gen- eral Manager of Riker’s Drug Stores, “No person free of catarrh, in my opinion, was ever troubled with de-' bility, So you will readily under- stand that the cure of debility de- pends entirely on the cluaning out of the eatarrhal parasites, No debility cure will ever cure yon as long as you have catarrh, Cxtarrh is the cause, Debility {8 the result. Then you get rid of the cause. No remedy will ever cure you but a catarrh rem- edy, and no other remedy will do it but Rexall Mucu-Tone, I mace this statement because we know what Mucu-Tone js and what it will do— and doesn’t it stand to reason that a remedy designed for one particular purpose—as Mucu-Tone for catarrh only—is going to give results a hun- dred times better than a cure-all that | aims at every disease in the diction- ary? Read what Ald, Robert K. Sloan, of the Sth Ward of Chicayo, writes us," “T cheerfully add my tndorseiment to those who have words of praise for Mucu-Tone. I consider ft the world’s greatest remedy for all ail- ments of the mucous membrane sys-| teva, & have taken the remedy for debility with the most sat!sfactory results, J know of one of wy constit- uents who was cured of an aggra- yated case of catarrh of the siouach through {ts use. ! inaorse it most heartily.” Mucu-Tone acts frely different from any other remey we know of, and we think we know them all.

Maxwell predicted on the ove of the struggle that those oppesed to him would not have more The preliminary teat showed that the poard was a little timid In the presence of the Superintendent, On ayproposition | to substitute the minority the ma- jority or Maxwoll report om the "fad" question, the vote was 19 to 16. Then when It was found that Maxwell had at last really lost control of the board, there was a rush to turn his aefeat Into a Waterloo by the vote already re- lated. ‘The fight Insted three hours. It was opened by Commissioner Jonas, who said that three and a half hours’ study {n school was sufficient im the first two years, Need Air and Slow Teaching. Commissioner Lummis ald; “To keep such young children at @tudy in the class-rooms five hours a day Is to affect thelr development, They need alr, free- dom and slow teaching, There !s no longer individual teaching in our pub- Mo schools, ‘The children are pushed en masse from one course into the next. Under the present system 10 per cent. of the pupils are reported ‘backward,’ ‘There was never a time when there was #0 much complaint against our school svstem, Only one hour a day now goes to teaching the essentials, “So far as moral teaching 18 con- the elementary schools nag been IL1.

Too much time is Bivén to fads.’ Maxwell's Plea, Superintendent Maxwell made a lon speech In favor of keeping the tue children in school five hours a day.
