 ^^ Jl.T.^ The Standard. MAEKDALE. JUNE 28th, 1888, SirE WALKS. Otirstatnte labor OYerseers have complet- ed the siJewslk ta the Lailway crossing, makin.; a first class substantial six feet walk, with cedar scantling and sleepers. It now remains for the E'y Co. to continue it to the Btatiju, which is veiy badly needed, and we siacertly hoi^e they wiU do so forthwith. It is ouly about ten rods, would not cost much, and TT.juld be very highly appreciated by our citizeT? and the travelling pubhc. Our sta- tioii has recently been sending out from 20 to 2-5 cars of freight per day and a large pas- senger traffic bojiJes, and we think the least tlie C ' can do is to make a respectable way of getting from the station to the village '"ilew.-iik, I'HEENOLOOY. Tlio cpj (.-i- ci ya; tio;:^ ID S;i •If. science ot Phrenologj- lias very little ;ion from intelligent and leamt-u r.nd yet few fully appreciate its full The various pi'ofessions and avoea- r lile aie being tilled, nud we venture in liiac- casts out of ton the young r.i.-.n si.'irtiiig cut, or even his parents, have but a very remote idea of what particular i u-ino-s he is best suited for, and at wh"t l;e will best succeed. We believe parents should endeavor to have a phrenolof,ical cx- I'.niiuaiioii of their children before deciding wlia; I'esiucss in life they fit them for, and tl;i-= Fv.e in mnuy irstanccs years time to- gfthtr witli needless expense. Experience is valuable, yet when many 3"cars, and per- \i-\y~ tiif iiiimc of life is spent in cxperement- irj.u' :\- to \w.iU lino CI business we are best u.l;ili:i';, it becomes a very costly tcr.chcr.
