of us endeavor to strike an occasional note
for the improvement of our neighbors, bu
neglect to crafty ourselves in the least, No
matter what paths our feet may mark.
straight ones must be drawn for those who
travel with US. We can see very clearly ou
brothers frailties and are always extremely
anxious to prescribe remedy, but how Otter
we overlook our own faults, ignorant that a
remedy is needed. Our own failings do not
trouble us much. but we are deeply grieved
at his sinnings.
Are we striving to build a good structure
the foundation should be firm and good.
Before we should strive to bring good gifts
to others and make them better, we should
as far as in us lies, make ourselves good.
Neither should we do good because it is our
duty, alone. but should have purer motive
love of doing good
ferhaps we have plucked rosebud and
tried to unfold its leaves, not waiting for ma.
lure to perform its work but how imperfect,
lacking richness of fragrance and soon fading
away To this action may be compared one
performed from mere duty, while an action
prompted bypure love is perfect, lacking moth
ing, and causing in the breast ofth receiver
heartfelt emotions of thankfulness.
Let there be determination to discovex
on what grounds we should act, to see iftbere
is not duty lying unperformed at our door
TO see whether it shall be urmounted merely
because lis our duty to do so, or whether
done from love of doing what we believe
to be right. Then can we step outside OF
self and say~oehold how grieyous are thy
faults-correct them.

Letters to Teachers.


1t cannot be justly said that Americans old
or young, are indolent or lacking in ambition
to excel; yet with all our industry and ability,
energy and application, we rarely find one
whose life is useful. Bright spots shine out
in the life of nearly every one which compen-
safes, in measure, we usually think, for the
many dull, useless points in his character
But ought we to make our lives one continued,
counterbalancing struggle between plumbers
and successes?
To whom is This painstaking, unsuccessful
way of life more due than TO the teacher? II
is true that there are exceptional natures,
vagabonds by birth, who, under all ordinary
influences, viii fail to be useful, save to point
an example; but the great average heart OF
humanity is ever ready to be moulded by the
teacher, and with him rests the responsibility,
ifafter years spent by him in training the
child for life's work, many are still left in
ignorance of the first principles of we'll
trained self reliance, to float as humanity Is
rubbish ON the great current of the worlds
activity.
Many teachers of noble aspirations second
these with but poorly directed efforts. Feeling
in blind way, that given time spent in Wig
orous exertion must be industry, and seeing
much accomplished even in this rude way
they push on in methodless course, as Otter
wrong as right, live their brief day, and trans
nit their example to the succeeding genera
ton.
1t is true that wisdom must at some time
be gained by stern and slow experience, but
thisi is no proof that it must be won a thou
sand times over by the same stumbling pro-
cess. What is the object of schools and teach
ers, if not to show an easier and far better
path to knowledge than the tedious rounda-
bout method used by the experimental discov-
erers of those gems now become the property
of every schoolboy? Then is it enough that a
teacher is well acquainted with truths already
gained, or must he also be so familiar with the
principles underlying our nature, and thus
adapt his method to the necessities of the oc-
casion? And is even this enough, must he
not familiarize himself with the plans, sugges-
tions and processes by which others have
shown themselves eminently fitted to prepare
boys and girls for the high duties of true men
and women?
In other words we believe every teacher I'M
worthy place in the profession who does not
read regularly some educational periodical, OF
some good work DaetnoaS OF lmpartlng in
struction, as well as the mere matter to be
impaired. Then when it has been thoroughly
studied, and well pondered, see to it that you
put in practice what seems to you good and
practicable. You cannot read page of an
educational work without having some good
opinion strengthened, some error exposed, or
some doubtful point made plain; to say moth
ing of the many new ideas appearing to you
everywhere. To each and every teacher
whether old or young, we would say study
methods more, talk of them more whenever
you meet each other, and let no other subject
so much engross your thoughts. S.

The Grover and Baker Elastic Stitch Sewing
Machines are Superior to all others for the
following reasons:

l, They sew direct from the spooIs, and require
reminding of thread.
2. TIL more easily understood and used. and
less liable to arrangement than other MAJ chimes.
3. rhey are capable of executing perfectly, without
change of adjustment, much greater variety
work than other machines.
4. The stitch made by these machines is much more
hrn, elastic and durable especially upon articles
which require to be washed and ironed than any 9TH
er machine
O. This stitch. owing to the manner in which the
der thread is inwrought, is much the most plump
and beautiful in use, and retains its plumpness and
beauty even upon articles frequently washed and
irobed until they out.
% The stru ciure of the is such that though 1t
be cut or broken at intervals of only few stitches.
1t VIII neither open, ravel, but remains firm
and durable.
Unlike other machines, these fasten both ends of
the seam by their own operation.
5. with these machines, while silk is used upon the
nigh or face side of the sea cotton may be used up
on the other side without lessening the strength OF
durability of the seam. This can be done on no 9TH

made up with silk.
