cause of Jacobs weeping was the refusal
of Rachael to allow him To kiss her a.

setting SIN Oi THIS country IS
It's the root Of all evil, vice,
I'd immoralily are the sure fruits
.aness. The industrious man or wo-
an has not time to concoct and carry out
schemes of viIliany and crime. They are
alien to the thoughts, and inclination and
pleasure of the industrious. As sure as
the rising sun gives light TO the world,
Just so sure is idIeness to bring in It's train
vice, crime and immortality. Why does
the gambler resort 10 the games OF chance!
Because he is idle. Why does the drunk
and visit the grog shop ! Because he Is
idle. True it is that all idle head Is the
devils workshop.
In passing through the country we are
often amazed al the idleness Of the people.
We see great big children mopPing away
their time in idleness instead of going To
school. The parents are not at work, II
they are not al the grog.shops. 1t would
seem that the chief object of life is to be
IDLE as much as possible that the great
pleasure and charms Of our country Is
ldleness We are taught in Holy Writ
that man is to live by the sweat Of bis
brow. SIX days are we commanded to
labor. This command is as imperative as
it is 10 keep holy the seventh day. OF
the two il is the more important TO our
existence on this earth, beyond all doubt !;
and we have much more confidence in the
genuine goodness and plely Of the man
who Iabors all the week, than we have in
him who simply observes the Sabbath
day.
Every one who has tried it must know
how much pain and uneasiness there = in
mere iIIeness. Hence Il is that the idle
are driven from IdIsness TO vice and crime
for occupation. The dlunkard resorts to
the bottle and the cempanionship Of the
vicious To Kill 'ine. The gambler goes
TO the card table and the wine glass for
the same purpose. The idle boy seeks
vice and crime in which 10 kill his idle.

Our School Houses.

One need not make great Journey to
satisfy himself thai a majority Of the CON-
mon school houses in the country are un-
fit for the purposes intended. In rural
districts especially there is niggardiness
abou. them that does no credit TO those
interested in the matter. II would seem
that the people have become thoroughly
imbued with the opinion that the great
mass of children should be educated as
cheaply as possible hence, houses are
used that are manliestly unfit for human
habi,ation.
We have seen children shivering with
cold as they vainly tried to "do sums.
and have seen them almost sutiOcatlng in
badly ventilated houses while they nod
ded over nouns and verbs. Another great
error constantly occurring, and one that
calls loudly lor reform, is in the conslruc-
ton of seats. Who has not seen long
bench fuI! Of little children with their feet
swinging and dangling between bench and
floor, and their shoulders stopped as they
sigh over their we'll thumbed primers !
Who has not observed their restlessness
from their cramped position and restraint
from seeking comioE by the threatening
eve of ser,ile master The bones OF
cIi'd are not iron neither are their mus
cIes made of brass, and the necessary con-
sequence of their young DAYS being spent
upon high benches without backs or foot
rests, their bones bend, the shoulders
sioop. the chest contracts and the child
goes forth a marked victim for a prema-
iure grave with the Death Worm rioling
in the lungs. few years of medical eX-
perience and observation warrants US IN
saying that large proportion of lung dis
eases are taken into the system in compa'
ny with Webster's Spelling Book, Emcr-
sons Arithmetic and Mitchel's Geogra-
Iphy.
Let school committee men, parents and
guardians look TO this matter. Let them
( improve the school-hOuses, so that they
may be rendered comfortable in winter
and summer. Let them furnish then
with seats adapted TO the size and cond
don Of the scholars. Let them rest thelI
