iÂ¥ oz "There is littleâ€"freeplay in teaching. There is but little opportunity given a teacher to study the capabilitics or character of pupils. A cartain number of facts and dates and cut and dried information must be crammed into the _heads of pupils within a given time. Owing to the urgency of the parents to _have thoir children advanced and to have them pass the proscribed examinâ€" ations, in order that they may finish their course in as short a time as possiâ€" ble, the teacher, in self defence, is comâ€" polied to the decidedly pernicious coursoe of overâ€"crowding, in which case the child is notb given time to digest the instructions imparted to him. The universal complaint of parents is not that the teachers advancs their pupils too. rapidly, but that they are not advanced quickly enough, and the teacher who cannot or will not comply with this demand must step down and oub.

There is a lack of these refinements andâ€"courtesies here which you see in other lands. There is a great deal in style and & great deal in manner, and they ought to be cultivated.. Our tone and our emoâ€" tional nature should be watched. There is everything in a person‘s tone. What is wanted is kind and loving hearts. A vast amount of this world‘s trouble comes from lack of thought. Another requirement was volition, the cultivation of the will of the active parts, determination. This, the lecturâ€" er said, was an important thing and should be carefully attended to. Man was created after a special type, for a special service and was here for a purpose, and everyone had the possiâ€" bilities of & hero, We should study ourselves how best to impress, how to uplift our fellow men and whatever we did, do it with ail our might, all our mind, and all our heart. Find out what our idiosyncrasies lead to, and then be ap and doing, knowing that all our bighest and best gifts were tvruly educative and came from God. The desire for prohibition having been weighed in the balances and found wanting in & majority sufficient to enâ€" able the Government to offer a proâ€" hibitory law, the temperance party might, with advantage, devote a genâ€" erous portion of its platform to an enâ€" deavor to secure the emancipation of the human stomach from the oppression and disabilities under which it labors. We have long ago recognizad the evile of intempsrance in drinking, but fow amongst us seem to realize the deadlier results of intemperance in eating. The social glass is not so deadly as the knife and fork, for the majority of men dig their graves with their teeth. Ninotyâ€" nine men ous of a hundred eat more atb each meal than is good for them, and tbe hbhuedredth fellow takes big chances. Scores of soâ€"called temperance men reproach the liquor drinker for the dangers he courts, yet flirt daily, themâ€" selves, with apoplectic fits and many other evils born of overâ€"eating. The evil of overâ€"drinking is more apparent, the evil ofoverâ€"eating ismore real. Rest is as necessary to the proper discharge of its function, by the stomach, as sleep is to the weary brain, A large waistband is Nature‘s penalty for laziâ€" ness and gluttony, and the larger proâ€" portion of our race form a great army of unconscious gluttons. _ By all means let us have a society pledged to secure the emancipation of the human stomach. And when we have learned the lesson that moderation in all things is the keyâ€" note of human hsppiness, we shall see average years of man run considerably higher than obtains at present. Ho condemned our educational sysâ€" tem in regard to the multiplicity of its studies. It did not allow time for thoroughness and got to be almost slavery. We must not be anxious but work to get the best results, he said Work calmly, regularly, and thoroughâ€": ly and stick to it until it is done. A great many spoke against studying classics, but if he had to choose beâ€" tween classics and mathematics he would take the former.

Wherever there is classic language there is classic thought ; you catch the subtlety of thought as well as the fine classical distinction. The first consideration in fall educaâ€" bional plans was attention to the body and how to treat it, The groat features of general living, according to that famous phy sician, Sir Aadrew Clarke, were to sponge with tepid water every morning, rub one‘s self well with a rough towel, clothe warmly but loosely, eat threa meals a day and not five or six, and bhave about 5 1â€"2 or 6 ‘hours between meals. The first and third meal should be much alike and the middlse meal should be the best one. The food used should be eggs, lamb, beef, fow), venison, brown bread and farinacious dessorts, a cup of tea afcer the morning and evening meal and 2 tumbler of water %34535195_‘3[;_' Pickles and’pi‘ej_ QDFL".’J-L' efforvescent drinks "*a bo be avorued and an hour‘s walk is to be taken every day.

We see certain tendencies in our day, social, political and particularly indastrial that need watching. This was an ago of keen competition, and might be said to be & good thing and a bad thing. Like oxyâ€" gen in the air, if surcharged with itb is dangerous ; if less in quantity it deâ€" presses life ; if larger we live too fast.

Moderation in All Things A Narrow Escape. Chronicle, Thursday, Noyember 10, 1898â€"Page 2 Some people don‘t know the differâ€" ence between meekness and weakness. There is a good deal. A moek man is not an ass that lets everybody saddle and ride him, nor a door mat that lets every clod hopper wipe his boots on him. The creeping wobbling creature that adapts his locomotion to every new surrounding is not a meek man, but a weak man. A meek man has backâ€" bone stiff enough to keep his hoead straigkt and pliant encugh to allow him to gebt through sn ordinary doorâ€" way. N3 one admires the aggressive nuisance who disturbs and demors] zos everybody and everytling with which he comes in contbact, bubt we have no patience with the simpleton who has no opinion or conviction of his own and who basn‘s enough confidence in bimself to wipe his own nose without being lebt.

Well might Solomon say, "the borrower is bondâ€" servant to the lender." Many a man toâ€"day knows the bitterness ef debt, and this is an ago of all ages when you can owe money and be respectable and even religious. People can be pillars of the church and preside av missionary meetings, and the butcher and baker not be able to get a penny out of them There are psople that roll down in their carriages to church that have not paid their charwoman for six weeks. What a tale might be unfolded in a city like this were an investigation of debos made in connection with those who coms and go to the Saturday afternoon matinees or are announced at official levees. A glance at the society news of the local papers often affords food for thought for the retailer.
