"The old-fashioned set course with
cultural aims has caused many fail-
ures, produced huudreds of misfits,
and driven innumerable boys and
girls to leave school as soon as the
law will permit," declares Edwin I.
Canine, superintendent of schools in
East Chicago, in a statement ad-
dressed to the United States Com-
missioner of Education.
Bast Chicago is a ptiy of cos-
mopolitan character and strong
democratic tendencies, according to
Superintendent Canine. There is no
wealthy nor especially cultured class
and extreme poverty is unknown.
Ills problem, therefore, was prob-
ably somewhat different from that
of other school men. In his efforts
1o solve . it he emphasizes certain
special features, among which
"semi-industrial work," a "maximum
minimum" plan of assigning school
lessons, and a method of reducing
the number of daily recitations, are
conspicuous.
Semi-industrial classes were form-
ed when it was found that some
children, especially in grades Ave,
six 'and seven, appeared unable to
carry the regular work, even after
repeated trials Special attention
was given to these pupils. One-third
or one-fourth of their time was
spent in the manual training or
domestic science department, where
the work was made as practical as
possible. Theri the special teacher
took them lor about the same
amount of time and coached them
in the subjects of the grade in
Avhich th^y failed. Under these con-
ditions, Superintendent Canine re-
ports, some of the boys passed not
only the gratle in which they had
failed bu the next grade as well.
These semi-industrial classes art-
open also to children over fourteen
years of age who have left school
and are unemployed, and to those
already at work who are permitted
by foresighted employers to attend
schoo} part of the time.
The "maximum-minimum" plan of
lesson assignment adopted in Super
intendent Canine's system is an in
genious application of the princi
pie "from each according to his
bilities." The pupils do not all
have the same amount to do. If ti.
average pupils of the class are as-
signed fifteen problems in arithme-
tic, for instance, the slower pupils
are assigned eight, ten, or twelve,
typical problems, while the brightest
asked to do twenty or more. Th«
same principle is applied to geo
graphy and history, and to some ex
tent to English
Believing that the energies of th
pupils are unnecessarily divided and
dissipated by the constantly increas-
ing number of school subjects, Su-
perintendent Canine has devised
plan of reducing the number
studies. In the four lower grades
literature, history ,and nature study
instead of forming separate subjects
in the curriculum, are combined iu
nguage work." Other similar
combinations are made throughout
the coarse.
As in many American cities, tli
school work in East Chicago is by
no means confined to the period ol
the conventional school term. The
principals and industrial teachers
are engaged for the full school year
so that they may carry on the sum
mer work. In the summer sefcsion
pupils may make up deficiencies; an
•xceptlonally bright student ma>
cain a grade, the industrial work is
ept going (especially the liom
garden); and playground activities,
under the supervision of trained di
rectors, are at their height.

Washington, D. C., Feb. 17.—To
demonstrate to the interstate com-
merce commission the effect of the
duced rates it proposes, the ex-
press companiep have reported that
had the proposed rates been in ef-
fect October 23, a test day selected,
he reduction in their revenue would
have ranged from 4.96 to 30.6 per
nt.
Tho day's receipts fotr the Adams
ould have been reduced#'$18,-91, or
6 per cent; the American, |l!',28i
24.2 per cent; tlie Southern. $9,-
or 30.6 p^r1 cent; *1|< lulled
ates, $10,419 or 22.3 cent,
and the Wells-Fargo, $16,832 or 25.2
per cent.
Millions Last to Kite Companies.
These five companies assert that
the application of the reductions
ould have resulted in a total loss
of $24,996,047.25 in their business for
the year ended June 30, 3912,
equivalent to an operating deficit
of 5.42 cents for every dollar of
oss transportation revenue col-
ted."
The Great Northern Express com-
ny shows a reduction of 16.01 per
lit which would have produced a
fifcit based on the business of the
ist fiscal year, of $3,320. The
Northern Express company figures a
duction of 17.3 per cent, which
ould leave its earning power "less
than 1.4 per cent on the capital
tock." The Western Express com-
pany's estimated loss of revenue
ould be 4.96 per cent. This is ex
plained by the fact that it operates
under rates fixed by some state leg-
islatures at a comparatively low
figure. The Globe Express company,
another Western corporation, also
operating under rates fixed by
many states.
May Make Order Soon.
No intimation is given by the
commission as to when it will enter
order in the express investiga
tion, but it is expected some time
in the spring and probably will be
made effective two or three months
later.
UnreaMOHubleuess of Woman.
The Kansas City Star tells of the
following conversation: "Women ar<
unreasonable creatures, aren't they?'
The case of McMannus, a friend
of mine. McMannus has recently
made! a lot of money in the con-
tracting business. Oh, I guess h
did it legitimately. As far as I
know he is absolutely square. A
fine chap, too. I like him. lies
just as genial since he became
millionaire as he was before.
"But he got in bad with his wife
hot long ago When they moved
into their new mansion she sent
aown east somewhere for an old
spinning-wheel that had been used
by her grandmother and had it put
in a conspicuous place, so that their
friends would be sure to see it.
Well, Mac evidently felt that it was
1 fine sentiment which had prompt-
ed his wife to exhibit the spinning
wheel, so he hunted up the hod
that had been carried by his grand
father. He said nothing about it
intending to surprise his wife with
it. So, on the eventful evening, he
smuggled the hod In and had
placed beside the wheel."
"What happened?"
"Well, I understand that most
the guests went home early, feeling
that the party was a frost."

Fried Potatoes
"Cottolene" style
Did you ever eat French Fried
Potatoes made with Cottolene?
If not, you've never eaten French
Fried Potatoes at their best.
Cottolene makes them rich and
crisp and appetizing, but never
greasy.
If you have been frying and
shortening your food with butter,
try Cottolene. It is every bit as
good, at less than ^pe-third the
price.
If you are using lard for short-
ening and frying, we \rould sim-
ply suggest that Cottolene is
recognized and recommended by
leading physicians, domestic
science authorities, and culi-
nary experts generally, as be-
ing more whole-
some, digestible
and producing
better food.
Cottolene is a
vegetable pro-
duct—pure in
source and
making—and is
bound to be bet-
ter and safer
than lard.

HOW TWINS AKE ALIKE.
Physical Likeness Extends Mac
Deeper Than Ihc Shin.
Thoer is a case on record in
which two twins had at the age of
23 their first experience of tooth
ache. The pain came to both
the same day and the same tooth
had to be extracted in each case
says the New York Press. These
twins were remarkably alike and
very fond of each other.
That the physical likeness
ins extends much deeper than th
skin Is shown by a curious casd
that the medical papers were dis
cussing some time ago. A Paris
hospital doctor had under his charg
patient suffering from an attack
of rheumatic ophthalmia. One day
the patient remarked:
My twin brother must be having
opththalmia just now."
The doctor smiled at the Idea, but
next morning the patient banded
him a letter from the other twin
then at Vienna, ti began with th
words. "I am down with ophthalmia
1 suppose you have it ,too."
Twins, researches show, are near
ly always either so alike that it Is
;.!inost impossible to tell the dlffe

nee between them or else very
like one another indeed. Cases
in which they are moderately alike
are comparatively rare.
When they are very unlike each
other (and when one is a boy and
the other a girl this is practically
lways the case) the physical un-
keness is accompanied by a sim-
ilar mental one.
When the characters of twins are
not exactly the same they are ex-
actly the opposite of one another.
One will be quick, self-confident and
uick-lempered. but quick to for-
give; the other is slow, shy and
ood-tempered. but slow to forgive
lien roused.
Many pairs of twins, as everyone
knows, are difficult or almost im-
possible to tell apart. In the case
of these striking resemblances the
similarity of character which ac-
ompanies it breaks out in curious
ways. A newspaper recently drew
ttention to a cople of twins named
vans, who bewilder the stranger
v making the same remarks simul-
meously and begin humming the
une song at the same moment.
There are lots of similar cases on
record.
The theory that a curious tele-
ithy exists between twins, or, as
dentists put it, that their minds
in duplicate, is borne out by
he number of twins who are in the
ablt of finishing one another's sen-
tences.
ne of the most curious instances
this similarity of ideas among
wins—one inquired into and authen-
icated by Sir Francis Galton of
Ongland—iff that of a man who,
raveling in Scotland, bought a set
of Champagne glasses which caught
his attention as a surprise for his
twin brother, while at the same
time his brother was buying an ex-
actly similar set as a surprise for
the first twin.
However startling alike they may
■ in face, ways and mind, the man
ho knows a pair of twins can
iadily verify the curious fact that
n one point the likeness never
holds. oN two twins, for some in-
xplicable reason, ever writes
alike.

year in the person of Major Gen.

Rnid, Ok la., Feb. 18 —Friends of
Rev. Edward Charles Hussell, rec-
tor of St. Matthews Episcopal
church, who left Enid hurriedly
Saturday night when warned that
his presence in the town was not
wanted, believe implicity in the in
nocence of the pastor and maintain
that he will return and vindicate his
Kood name, ti is said the feeling
which caused -the crowd of cltizeiiB
to wait on the rector was a state-
ment nmde in the sermon of Kvnnge-
list McConnell, who is holding, a
tlng here, charging Rev. Mr.
Russell with corrupting the youth
of the city.
It is held by the members of Mr.
Russell's congregation that the ser-
mon of Dr. McConnell was inspired
by statements made by another min-
ister of the city, who had heard
barges from boys who had taken
>art in Rev Russell's boy welfare
vork. They further claim that,
though Mr Russell left the city on
account of threats, that he will re-
turn and not only vindicate himself
but also bring charges of criminal
libel against his brother minister.
They believe the charges made by
the boys are not trustworthy and
that their allegations amount to
nothing.
They stated that Mr. Russell left,
not. through fear, but on account of
his belief that it was the best policy
at the time. They say he has not
far and when the time is op-
portune he will return and main-
tain his innocence before a court of
justice.
Mi4 Russell, though he has in-
curred the enmity of many of the
riinifters of the city because he
would not indorse the methods pur-
sued in the enforcement of the pro-
hibitory law, Is highly thought of
by the laity of the city and his
men's meetings have never failed
to bring out large audiences. It is
alleged that enmity caused by this
lack of sympathy towards the fight
the sale of intoxicants may b«*
due to the strained relations alleged
xist between the ministers of the
against Mr. Russell.
THREE
Eats Freely But
Has No Dyspepsia
Takes a Mild Laxathe With Good
I'epsin and Insures Comfort
and Pleasure.
Fortunate is the one who can eat
"anything" without suffering the tor-
tures of dyspepsia, but as few are
so fortunate care should be taken in
the matter of diet. Fating slowly,
masticating the food thoroughly and
taking a short walk after tbo heav>
meal of the day will do much to-
wards assisting digestion Any
grown-up person ought to know the
peculiar foods that do not agree,
and these should be avoided.
When these common-sense aids
fail, the next thing :o "do is to tak*
a mild digestive tonic with laxatlv*
properties, and there is none better
than Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin.
It contains the greatest cf all aids to
digestion, good pepsin. It has otlur
ingredients that act mildly- 011 the
bowels, which together form a com-
bination for tin relief ot dyspepsia
Indigestion that is unsurpassed.
Ms action is to tone and strong!li-
the stomach ami bowel muscles
so that they can again do their work
naturally without outside jvkl,« and
when that happy moment comes all
medicine can be dispensed with. It
is the best remedy obtainable for
any disorder of the stomach, liver
and bowels, for dvspcpsla, constipa-
tion, biliousness, headaches, drowsi-
ness after eating, gas on the stom-
ach, etc. Thousands of users will
testify to this, among them Mrs.
Oliver Young, Merrill, Wis. ph

work seems easy, my brepth Is no
longer bad and I eat what I want
without distress."
Syrup Pepsin is sure in its results,
and a vast improvement, over" chew-
ing or swallowing tablets and mints,
or taking cathartics, salts, etc., all
of which are harsh and nauseous and
at best do but temporary good. You

anteed or money will be refunded.
