Something Should lc Doue.

M- Had a stranger been at the opera house last night to see "The White Slave," he would have thought the show was over at the close of the first act. About twenty gentlemen climbed over the railing which encloses the reserved seats and went out to "see a man." There was a larger number went from the back part of the house. This is very annoying to the respectable part of the audience, and the manager of the opera house should see that this getting up and running out between acts is stopped. If it continues the better class of people who attend theaters will stop going. A good plan would be to not iasu* return checks. This would put a atop to this nuisance.

They Are to toe Made Better Tliau Ever This Winter.

Great preparations have been made to make the Farmers Institutes of 1895-96 more successful than ever before. There are now about 150 lecturers, men and women, in this State, who will speak at the various institutes this winter. The committee who has charge of the institute work is: President J. H. Smart C. S. Plumb, Director of the Experimental Stations, and W. C. Latta, Professor of Agriculture and Superintendent of Institutes, all of Purdue University. There will be a two days' institute in each county, and the following are some of the subjects to be discussed:

These topics cover the whole field of agriculture and agricultural needs

for

"Drouth, its Causes and How to Ameliorate Its Effects," "Good Roads," "Bacteria and Daugerous Diseases," "Reformation in Farming," "Country Amusements," "How to Make Home Happy," "A Young Man's Views of Farming," "Cooperation," "Fruit Culture for Profit." These show the wide range

agriculture in a State like Indiana

der

the

stimulus

the

mixing

of a

successful

first-rate

quality and a large quantity of brains with

farming.

The trouble is not so much the lack of knowing what to do and how to do it, as putting the ideas in execution. This applies to not only farming, but all other kinds of business, Few people live and work up to their bast ideas and knowledge. From a knowledge of the magnificent resources and possibilities of Hancock county we assert that if every inhabitant would live and work up to the level of their best for the next five years, the results would be marvellous and eminently satisfactory.

The School Houses Disinfected Tertay.

The School Board had all the school rooms disinfected today. They were thoroughly scrubbed with water impregnated ,with corrosive sublimate and thtn 150 pounds of sulphur was burned. This will put the rooms iu fine condition. Carbolic acid is used daily being mixed with the water used in sprinkling the floors. Another disinfectant preparation ,is constantly kept in the rooms. No pains or expense are spared by the School Board to keep the rooms perfectly healthy and the children shielded from all possible danger of contagion and the teaehers are watchful and careful. We believe that if all the parents of the city were as careful to keep their houses and premises in as good a sanitary condition as the school houses and property are kept, there would be less sickness especially of a contagious or epidemic n.ture. The School Board and the Board of Health met together last night and consulted as to the best means of preventing the spread of diphtheria and any other diseases likely to be epidemic. The Health Board decided to look more closely after children 'affected with "sore throat." It is possible that some mild cases of diphtheria have been covered tip by being labeled "sore throat. Such cases are liable to give others cases of diptheria that may prove malignant and serious results may follow. Let all parents use every possibly precaution and make Greenfield a very healthy city.

The Chatelaine.

Tho .icbalelaine, with its cljl&tag, glittering silver trinkets, has a successor in the Trilby heart and chain, which promises to outdo it in popularity. But a woman is not,content to wear only the big heart containing a picture of the one she loves the best of all—sometimes it is the face of a dog and sometimes that of a man—dangling from her chain. She wears uczon gimcracks on her chain in the house that she wouldn't dream of wearing on the street, and to be happy she rnflbt have an equal number for the street that would be had indoors.

A matron and a maid met at the novelty counter in a jewelry store the other day. "And what are you doing out so early in the day?" asked the former of the latter. "Oh, I'm buying outdoor things for my Trilby chain 1 They are absolute necessities, you know. See, here is a wee powder box, with a dear little puff inside, and a cut glass vinaigrette and a bonbon box a case of court plaster, a knife, a tiny comb in a case, a stampbox and pencil, and of course here is a memorandum book that I've purchased. I won't buy anything else today because the clerk tells me that they will soon bring out some entirely new things for the chains and I'm going to wait." "Will you tell me what is left for the women to wear on these chains in the house?" the matron asked the clerk. "Oh, yes!" he replied glibly. "They wear scissors, emeries, bodkins, needlecases, tlireadholders, twist winders, eyelet punches, pincushions, thimble cases and a dozen other things used in sewing or making fancy work."—Chicago Post.

The Spotted Veil.

Anew count must be added to the indictment against the spotted veil. An up town woman has been ill for several weeks, and has narrowly escaped blood poisoning from one of them. She had a slight cut on the upper lip, and wearing her veil for several hours one day, at that time, Nhe noticed that it became moistened and adhered often to the cut. She thought nothing of it till in the evening, when she discovered that her lip was very much irritated, and began to pain her very perceptibly. By morning it was badly swollen, and a physician was oalled, who said at once that some foreign irritant h$d aggravated the slight sore, ana diq n&t hesitate to accuse the veil, vfaen !b© was told of its wearing the day befwd and the subsequent events. The oafld proved very obstinate, and the sore most diffioult to heal, the danger of blood poisoning at one time being very imminent. The veil was one of the ordinary black dotted sort.

It is some mitigation of the veil evil for the moment that fashion at present dictates that these face coverings should fly loose, after being pinned to the hat brim. The veil strapped close to the skin has been temporarily at least laid aside.—N«w York ffiinjgs.

Women and Coeducation.

France is interested in the question of coeducation, and a college professor from that country is looking into the matter over Here for the benefit of his nation. His researches have developed, according to his statistics, the interesting statement that wherever coeducation has been introduced the standard of the institution has fallen. It is not the women students personally who accomplish this result. They are excellent workers, stand high and take the lion's share of the honors, but indirectly their presence seems to have a deteriorating effect. The men relax, and this visiting observer finds that no college where women are admitted stands as high as one attended only by men. Which is one more obstacle that must be met by the ambitious woman. She will hardly be daunted by it, for if there is one thing the woman of today has become accustomed to—this, too, whether she be new, advanced, old fashioned or just plain "woman, "with no adjective or capitals—it is criticism.

A Woman's Wit.

The women of California are always doing something out of the ordinary. One day recently Mrs. Catherine Momm, janitress of a public school in the suburbs of San Francisco, went to the city to cash the pay orders of the teachers with whom she was employed. The money, $759, was placed inside of her corset. Then she made up a bundle, which she carried in her bands. She has long been fearful of an attack by robbers. When at a lonely spot, about two hundred yards from the schoolhouse, she was suddenly seized by two men, who had been lurking about the vicinity. She made a show of resistance. One of the men seized the bundle and both then jumped into a buggy which a confederate drove up with, and all three made their escape, while Mrs. Momm fled to \lbe schoolhouse. The worthless contents of the dummy bundle were afterward found by the roadside, where the iisgusted robbers had thrown them.

Miss Helen Thorburn.

The first woman to become an officer of the University of Tennessee is Miss Helen Thorburn of Virginia, a very successful student of the class of '96., She has been appointed assistant registrar. The women, who, since their admission to the university, have held their own and have won even more than their share of honors, are proud of this recognition and hope to win professorships in time. A woman who graduated last year has secured, through a civil service examination, a fine scientific position under the government.

Miss Harvey's Exhibit.

"Miss Margaret B. Harvey, author of "The National Flower, or Valley Forge Arbutus," the original"national flower poem," has a unique exhibit in the Pennsylvania department of the Woman's building at the Atlanta exposition. The exhibit consists of a pictorial sign, painted in oils and framed in gold. Attached is a decorated booklet giving the history of the national flower agitation.
