Democracy Of Science-No. 8.
BY JOSIAH HoLBRooK.


Reading hearing seeing, handling, and max
ing, are five modes of instruction. All are good,
and each better when aided by the rest For
Young minds and hands making has the strong
est affinity 1t is both productive and instruc-
tive, and hence attractive; while bl, BILE, bio
reading is neither and is hence repulsive. By
strong elective affinity, the one certainly draws
children to school; by inherent repulsion the other
very often drives children from school. The one
changes truants into the most punctual schol-
ars, the other changes the most active spirits
into truants.
A single specimen of making instruction will
illustrate thousands of Others The Cube Eve
ry boy and girl upon the face of the globe
would be happy in making cube. 1t would
draw any pupi! from the street to the school,
room for the simple reason that it gives pro-
ductire employment in getting practical know
ledge of one of the most fundamental and far
reaching principles in the whole range of sci
ence. N .~e.,g aoout cube, by beginner, Is
repulsive giving neither produciop nor 10
struc,on. it hence tends to drive pupil FROM
The s.h.n. room 90 the street, especially il
sprightly and active.
Making cube not only shows practically a
great principle, but gives manual slil--the Sci
ence and practice OF MECHANISM. No exercise
can perhaps unite in one act more of instruction
and production, or lay broader and stronger
foundation not fer house burning, but house
building. No principle so deep, no instrument
ia so constant use by the builder as tho "''A-

Mail announcement

Speaking of the mails, the Jonesvlle Demo
Graf says:
aThe irregularity of the mails at this season
| of the wear. when the routes are not obstructet
! bv snow or ice, is matter of serious lnconve
| nience to all classes, but to none perhaps more
than to the publishers of this city. The miser
able Encouragement must be in the Post Othce
Department, and it becomes the high function
aries who direct and control this important branch
of government to make it more efficient and re-
liable. If the elements conspired against them
and rain and hail and snow clogged up the high
ways, we should not complain; but on the con
trary. the roads are clear, and the heat OF the
sun cannot overcome the iron horse. Then why
these repeated failures--these constant disaP.
continents! We shall be glad when the mail
service of this country passes into other hands
for then we may expect change at least-ano
il cannot be for the worse.
