Granite Hall yesterday afternoon, when an
other boy took up revolver that was loaded
with powder, designed for use in the play at
the Catholic levee, and discharged it into the
little boys face, placing the pistol at the dis
lance only of about foot from his face. The
face was lacerated in a horrible manner. The
little fellow was placed under the influence of
ether while the powder was extracted.

saw two beautiful children
Stammering.

Stammering is due to unbalanced
action of the muscles concerned in ar
ticulation. This is why many persons
who stutter badly in speaking can sing
without difficulty. Singing compared
with speaking, is as walking compared
to running. Some persons whose mus
cular system is not equally developed,
as the case of many sedentary females,
can walk very well, but cannot run
without staggering. The athlete can
run with the same grace and symmetry
of motion that he can walk. In sing
ing the motions of the articulating
muscles are slow, deliberate and meas
ured. In speaking they are rapid, and
if all do not contract in harmony, some
will be thrown into spasmOdic action.
And this is stammering.
In some cases the tongue, and IN
other cases the lips act spasmOtically,
producing the varieties of stammering
known as llngual and labial. 1t is very
easy to understand that, if these de-
fects are not corrected in childhood,
they become, by long habit, very in
veterate in adult life. Yet nearly all
cases are durable by judicious training.
out uoutuSO vi pdtlcut anu peiScNcilHS
effort are usually required.
The remedial plan consists essential
ly in ascertaining what words or letters
occasion spasrlOtic action, and practi-
cling on them by pronouncing very
slowly and distinctly, as in singing,
until the habit of spasmodic action is
overcome. The patient must, on no
account, utter sound hurriedly, nor
until the mind has, by a deliberate ex-
ercise of will-power, got control of the
muscles A good .elOcutionist may be
of great service to the patient; but he
must study the peculiarities of each
case, and not undertake to manage all
cases by routine-.Science Of Health.

Girls, Learn Trades.

Would that this advice could reach
every girl in the land. The great curse
of woman is her dependence and help
lessness. And these are caused MAIN
ly by her having no trade or profession
by which she may earn O livelihood
aud be independent. And not only
girls need this advice, but their
mothers also. Mothers should impress
upon the minds of their daughters, as
we'll as upon the minds of their sons,
that it is their duty to be self-support-
ing members of the Commonwealth.
But this is far from being the prevalent
opinion to-day. The common idea is
that it is not woman's place to do any
kind of work except unremunerative
household drudgery. Girls are taught
that marriage is the end and aim of
their existence, and that it is the duty
of their husbands to support them.
This might be all very well-althnugh
it is founded upon an unSOund princi-
ple-if husbands did really support
their wives. But they do not, in the
great majority of cases. And the con-
sequence is that many, and many,
women with high aspirations and
noble longings-who, if they were un-
fettered from the thraldom of the
kitchen, would rise high in the ranks
of their profession or avocation--are
tied down to an unremunerative life of
toll and drudgery. We do not say
that women should not cook or do no
housework, but we do say that they
should be allowed the same latitude of
choice of the diversified labor of our
country that en.have. If a husband
really cherishes and loves his wife as
he should, would he not rather behold
her in her chosen profession or avoca-
ton receiving remunerative employ
ment than confined in the kitchen all
her days?

The Beauty OF Early Morning.

If one wants vacation to the full, he
must learn the value of the morning.
From four o'clock in the morning till
seven there is period as distinct from
day as is the time from six in the
evening until ten. Most persons un-
derstand the meaning of evening but
morning means no more than point
a mere time to get up and dress for the
day. But decidedly the richest. most
marked part of the day-the flu lest of
unique joys, songs, and suggestions-is
the morning. Thomas Fuller (is it p

TONS" That is it exactly-the quint-
eseence. About four of an August
morning the great wave of bird-song
reaches you. Where it starts 1 don't
know. Probably on the shores of the
Atlantic, with the reed birds; but it
always comes, with the sun, from the
East. At first you hear just one in
quiring note. away down the valley;
taf litaer tie another sleepy twill, then
another. and another, keener, fuller,
wide-awake joyful; until the valley
is rocking and rolling with tide of
song. And all the while it is drawing
nearer and nearer. A robin shouts in
the elm over the roof; the tide dashes
and flows over you-On, on to the
Pacific. For half an hour every bird
in all your world is half-crazed with in
spiration; pouring forth the exquisite
rhy thm of his being in a hallelujah
chorus. An then the perfume and
purity of the air. 1t has an Odor

The Business Of Children.

Children aswell as adults should have
occupation. Idleness is an abomination
at any perid Of life, from the cradle to
the grave. "For Satan finds some mis-.
chief fstill for idle bands to do.u Nature
knows nothing of id!ers. If children
are natural why should they be idlers.
Now the business of children is to
g''oaO. This may be new theory,
startling innovation, revolutionary
sentiment, but we think it is tue. AS
we look over the wCrld we find that
children generally are put to other
businesses except growing. They are
permitted to grow if they can, but
compelled to everything else. The
growing is secondary and Incidental,
when it should be primary and funda-
mental. Children are confined six
hours day in a school room under the
delusion that they are being educated.
They may indeed learn to repeat words
and talk phrases. But all the leas
they get at the expense of body devel-
Opment are useless or worse. They may
recite all the books, from Alpha to
Omega, and yet be know-nothings for
all practical purposes. Cultivating the
mind at the expense of the hody was
never done and never will be. All at
attempts in that direction only dwarf
and enfeeb.e bOih.-Scie1lce of Health.
