Influence Of Newspapers.

A school teacher who has enjoyed the bene-
lit of a long practice in his profession, and
watched closely the influence Of newspapers
upon family Of children, states, as the re-
suit OF his observation, that, without excep.
ton, those scholars of both sexes who have
access to newspapers at home, when COM
pared to those who have not, are:
/. Better readers, excellent in pronunca-
ton, and consequently read more under
standingly.
2. They are better spoilers, and define
words with ease and accuracy.
.. lhey obtain o partial KNOWLEDGE of
geography in almost half the time it requires
others, as the newspaper has made them
familiar with the location of most important
places and nations, governments, etc,
q. They are better grammarians, for the
newspaper has made them familiar with
every variety Of style, from the common
place advertisement to the finished and clas
seal oratory OF the statesman they more
readily apprehend the text, and consequent.
~ analyze its construction with more alac.
rity
8. They write better compositions, using
better language, containing more thought,
and more clearly expressed
From these important facts three impprt.
ant things can be deducted:
|. The responsibility of the press in nro.
vldlng literature which is both healthfui in
tone and Understandings expressed.
2. The absolute necessity of personal SUI
pervision of the childs reading by the pa.
rents.
3. Having once got good, able paper,
no matter what the price, don't begrudge it
hearty support.

10 Preserve Furs.-As the season has ar.
rived when 1t becomes necessary to lay furs
aside, and preserve them from their rayish-
ers, the moths, the following hints may be
useful to our lady readers: One ounce of
gum camphor and one ounce of powdered
shell OF red pepper, are macerated in eight
ounces of strong alcohol for several DAYS,
and then strained. With this tincture the
iurs and cloths are sprinkled over and rolled
up IN sheets. This remedy is in constant
use in Russia, under the name of "Chineso
| Iincture for Moths" and is found very CT
fectve.
