IL W-OmderfssI microscope

Rev. Daniel Wise, D. D., editor
of the lew York Sunday Schoo.
Advocate, thus speaks of the eel.
ehrated Craig Microscope
Its simplicity, cheapness and
great magnifying power struck
me with surprise. Then 1 was
examining a fy's eye by it's aid.
and was struck with wonder
at the skill and power of the Gre.
ator which is displayed in its
structure. When 7 saw a state
ment in an advertisement that
the Craig Microscope magnified
one hundred d~iameters, and could
be bought for $2.75, 1 thought ii
was one of the humbugs of the
hour, for I had paid $50 for a
microscope not long before. But
now I find it to be a really valu-
able instrument, which 1 should
like to e. introduced into the
families of our readers in the
place of manifold useless toys
which pleas for an hour, and is
then destroyed. This microscope
would both amusc and instruct
them and 1 advise every boy and
girl who wishes to know the
wonders which lie in little things
to save his money until he has
$2.75, which W II pay for the mic
roscope and the postage when
sent by mail"
As a holiday gift this micro
scope is unsurpassed, being orna-
mental, instructive, amusing anu
cheap, and never losses its inter>
est. Agents and dealers suppli-
ed on liberal terms. A sample
will be mailed, post paid, to any
address for 50 rs, by E. II. Ross,

WHIPPING CHIBpREN.-Why
do you whip your childrenf OF
course you say it is to enforce
wholesome discipline, and obedi-
ence to just commands. I'M.
doubtedly you are Influenced by
your highest perceptions of right.
We we're similarly influenced
when we used to switch" the
little rebels in the family and
in the school. Had we closed
our eyes to the innovating pro-
gress ofthe age, we might still be
the little desperadoes,
and thereby teach them the law
of punishment which Is so deeply
engrafted into our system of ma
tional and social Government
Every blow you infict upon the
person OF the child, makes a scar
upon the spirit that may require
eternity to efface. A change
must become universal in the
treatment of children. You
may preach moral reform and re-
ligious truths to stumps aud to-
old trees till the crack and ernsh
of doomsday and you will have
but little progress in The worlds
redemption, until you regard the
of children in q more lib
eral view. Parents and teachers
Of to day ire mouldir G the char

is moulded in the crucible of
passion, of fear, or selfish rule,
the character of our country will
be the same. The tender vine
and the fexile ,wig may be trains
ed into any form or shape that
may be desired, according to the
taste or skill of the cnltivator.-I
Nature is true to itself in every
department.. Ignorant, fand un
skillful teachers of children in
families and in schools, combined
to hold the car of progress and

tutions of the past. We should
never crush the nature of a chill
It rhould be led, just as you train
the vine upon yonr trellis work.
You would think it unwise to
to train o vine without
something that would

be no less unwise, howev-
eSer, to attempt to train the the

Parents who enforce dis

we associate as well. Ev-
