Notwithstanding the increase in the price
OF ofsubscription last Fall, when THkALDLNE
assumed Its present noble proportions and
representative character, the edition tCdS
more than doubled during the past year; prov
ing that the American public appreciate, and
will support, a sincere effort In the cause OF
Art. The publishers, anxious to justify the
ready confidence thus demonstrated, have
exerted themselves to the utmost to develop
and improve the work and the plans for the
coming year, as unfolded by the monthly Is
sues, will astonish and delight even the most
sanguine friends of THE ALDLNE.
The publishers are authorized to announce
designs from many OF the most eminent ar
fists of America.
In addition, THE ALDINE will reproduce
examples of the best foreign masters. selected
with a view to the highest artistic success, and
greatest general interest; avoiding such as
have become familiar, through photographs
or copies OF any kind.
The quarterly tinted plates, for 1873, repro
duce four of John 3. Davis inimitable child
sketches, appearing In reissues for January,
April, July and October, would alone be
worth the price of years subscription
The popular feature OF a copiously illustra-
ted"Christmas" number will be continued.
To possess such a valuable epitome OF the
art world at cost so trifiing, will command
the subscriptions OF thousands In every sec
tIon of the country; but, as the usefulness and
attractions of THE ALDLNE can be enhanc-
ed. in proportion 10 the numerical increase OF
its supporters, the publishers propose to make

Praise Children.

There j. al Old superstition Thai
praise is toO good thing u be : Ven
to children; that it is too rich for their
moral and mental digestion. Some
parents are 30 afraid that child will
grow proud, that they never praise
him, and this course is often di,as.
trous. 1t is apt to produce too much
self assertion-for self assertion is a
legitimate outgrowth of the with
holding OF commendatiOn to which
one il entitled-or to engender q sell
distrust or melancholy hopelessness OF
disposition. Praise is sunshine to a
child, and there is no child that does
not need it. 1t is the high reward
Of ones struggle to do right. Thomas
Hughes says that you can never get
mans best out of him without
prsise. You certsialy can never get
a child's best out OF him without
praise. Many sensitive child, We
believe, is starving to death f,r kind
commentator. Many child, starry
ing for the praise that a parent should
give, runs of eagerly after the de |
signing fsttery of others. To with
hold praise, where it is due, is dishon>
est, and, in the case Of child, such a
course often leaves singing sense of
injustice. Motives Of common jus
tice, as well as regard for the future
of the child, should influence the
parent to give generous praise for all
that it deserves. OF course there is a
difference in the constitution of chill
dren. Some cannot bear SO much
praise as others, and some need a great
deal. 1t should never be indiscrim-
mate. We remember a wonderful
woman who taught school in village
until she had educated part of three
generations. She was one Of the most
successful of teachers. But her sue
cess lay in her gift of praising with
discrimination. A bad boy, wLo was
q good scholar got praises for his
brilliancy, ssndwiched between her
aSomination for his bad behavior, and
50 was won to a better life; and we
recall good girl who had no gift of
earning rapidly, but was saved from :,
liter despair by the praise she got for
ler untiring industry. Into the dis J
,ouraged hearts OF the children the
praise OF the teacher came like sun
light. And The virtues, like other .
ruits. can only ripen in the sunshine. +

Sheep After ShearIng-

After sheep has lost its fleece, the
skin of the animal becomes very sen
sitive TO the heat of a scorching sun,
or the chill of cold storm. To be
convinced of this, and the importance
of making some extra exertion for the
comfort of the animals, it is only ne.
cessary to visit the fed where the
flock is kept, when the day is hot or
immoderately cold, and witness the
discomfort manifested. In either case
the sheep will be found seeking shell
ter, painting or shivering, ard of
course suffering severely.
Probably the most economical mode
of protecting the flock is to turn them
into the woods, or into field part
of which is covered by forest trees.
Here, in hot day,they are shielded
IRON the sun, and in cold storm get
some protection. It is better, how
ever' when cold storm approaches,
to drive the flock up, and keep them
in the barn until the weather is sui,-
able for them to go out again.
1t will be remembered that. but q
few years ago, thousands of sheen
were killed in Northern Ohio. by a
cold storm some time in June. Farm.
ers at that time, who were thoughtful
enough to care for their fiocks, saved
them, and the lesson learned then
should be remembered. 1t is not
frequent that we have summer storms
severe enough to kill sheep outright
unless: perhaps, it be few old ''pelt-
ers,'' yet that is no argument agains,
giving them protection, for when ar
animal suffers from any cause, it de
clines in flesh, health and strength.
At this season it is particularly i'm
portant that ewes with lambs be giyer
all the advantage possible, for the,
have two lives to support, and tht
draft upon their system is heay,
enough without being subjected t.
endurances which night, with care

The ARCTIC DESPAIR.

So, ano.her. Arctic expedition has
proven practical and costly failure,
and it is only by accident that we
have learned its tate, and have any
Left to tell the history OF its endur-
snce and catastrophe Other expe-
ditions are threading their perilous
way through ice foes, If not already
lost. The Prussisn expedition. or
ganized by DR.. Peterman, and en-
barked ia the Gefnisnis, was heard
from not long ago. Then there are
the Swedish expedition, commanded
ny N. Nordens Kield the Austrian
expedition, directed by Payer and
Weyprecht the Norwegian expedi-
tiou. under Captzin Msek and the
French expedition of Hector Psvy,
which started from San Francisco
last year. Whist viii become OF these?
And even if they sre fortunate enough
to return, and each Of them brings
back an in6nitesimsl speek of infor-
nation, Hrested with such incredible
risk and effort from the Arctic ice
grip, what will the gain in knowl-
edge pay for the exposure and exer-
tiou and sacrifice required 20 obtsin
it? Will commerce be benefited by
breaking the ice-bsrriers that protect
the Polar Sea, and dissipating the
Arctic despair? How are mankind
to get any good by any discovery
that can possibly be made in that
realm of ice snd night? Admit the
fascination that invests these upper |
regions and lures advensurers to MIR
acles of effort and endurance. But
is not the yielding to it a waste of
force that could be spent with q |
thousand times larger return of prac-
teal benefit in other fields? II the
earth has changed its center OF grav-
ity, as has been ingeniously main
tanned, so that what Is now one vast
ice field Was q temperate zone, COW
cred with verdure and teemiDg with
valuable products, we can afford TO
wait until another chsnge shall un-
lock its ice-yaults and give US buried !
treasures back to mankind. But, un-
til the vast open regions of the earth
are explored and civilized, and the
practical schemes which invite and /
will repay human effort in human ben
eff have been carried to successful
issue, whoever proposes another ex-
Dedition to explore these barren Arc
tic ice-feids should be treated as q
visionary, if not as an enemy of
mankind
