Craft.Schools Wanted.

To remedy this aimlessness and unfitness for
life with which our education leaves our
youth, we need more craft schools, where
boys can become practical engineers, chemists,
printers, machinists, and even farmers. The
machnist would be none the worse il he
should spend his evenings over Euclid instead
Of lager the blacksmith if be knew how to
drive home and cinch an argument in meta
physics as skillfally as horseshoe nail or
the dentist if he could extract hidden Greek
roots with the same facility as grumbling mo-
lars. Educated men would dignity any Of
these employments, and make them sought
and not Stunned by those worthy to fill them.
A man who wants to run an engine ought to
be educated for his business, just as much as
lawyer for his profession. We are patient
long-sudering people, or we would never per.
nit ourselves to be blown up by hundreds by
ignorant engineers, who know nothing more
Of the monsters which they control than
enough to feed them with wood aud water,
and oil up their creakiug joints or suffer
ourselves to be sent to our graves by strip
lings in short jackets, who gives arsenic fer
paregoric, and strychnine for the elixir Of
life. The time is coming, and we trust is not
far distant, when all these positions Of re-
sponsbility will be filled by men of education,
and can be filled by none others when igno-
ramuses will be obliged either to 6t themselves
for their proposed labors, or seek some other
cmployments. Seribner's for May.

Ohentimes my patience is severely tried but
one thought Of that horrible death to which
Harry came so near, drives the demon away.
Mothers, bear patiently with those little
innocent ones. Are there not many whose
eyes, resting upon this simple story, are filed
with tears at the recollection Of the unkind
words, and even blows, TO little children laid
away forever, who would give all their
worldly possessions, yes, years Of their lives,
to recall those hasty words which made their
lips quiyer piiiGully, and the clear eyes dim
with tears2 Ah you cannot have them
back. They are gone, aud your sin remains.

The Wholly Regular Man.

That terrible human, the wholly regular
person, is thus overhauled by the GALAXY
Nebuln mau
The man who day after day rises at Eve
O'Clock in the summer aud six O'Clock in the
winter, kindles the fire, puts on the tea-ket-
tie, steps out and takes walk Of an hour,
and comes back to his breakfast, dimes at
twelve, has supper at FIVE in winter and six
in summer, and sends the family TO bed when
the clock strikes nine---whose existence is .
dull round Of unvarying incidents--whose
history is the journal Of one day multiplied
by the number of days in his life, may ac-
cumulate money, may deluge the world with
prosy and well.meaning books, may also
wear out the hearts and bodies Of those who
are compelled to conform their steps TO his,
but can we call him child Of Nature1 True,
Nature sends the unwearied sun from day to
day, but why does she make each day longer
or shorter than the one preceding, except to
SOW her horror Of monotony7 The years in
single file move by, but 10 what helter-skel-
ter way the seasons come, treading on each
others heels and changing places in a manner
utterly at variance with the discipline Of tho
regulars If Nature loves regular habits one
would think she would reform her servants,
Wind. Rain, Cold and Heat, 80 that they
would distribute their blessings with more
uniformity. To such stickler for regular
habits in Others as she is represented, one g
inclined to suggest q little more promptness
in bringing around our winter supplies.
A more even distribution, too. might not be
amiss, for when she does come marching along
from State to State with her basket of provis-
ions Ohio gets no apples, Illinois more than
her share Of corn. while poor Kansas is most
neglected. A straight avenue between two
rows Of trees leading through a square lawn
to square two-story house is the front view
OF a residence be6tting the victim of regular
habits. How different the example which
Nature sets in this respect Her lawns are
filled with trees Of all shapes aud sizes, whose
arrangement is in bold defiance Of the square
and yardstick. None Of the animals observe
one day in seven as day of rest, and few
have regular hours for eating Fancy the
robins sitting down to their grub at precisely
SIX o'clock each morning, or the cat saying
to her kittens, "Put away your work now,
my little dears, the clock has struck nine--it
is bedtime" The dog, when offered piece
Of meat, never refuses from fear that eating
between meals will disturb his digestion, nor
is he prevented from carrying bone to a
sick companion by unwillingness to divert
his charities from their regular channels"
When we reflect that Nature makes no two
leaves even, or blades Of grass exactly alike
we must believe that she labors to introduce
variety.

An alarming large number Of the sons Of
