Education.

Always remember that to edu-
cate rightly is not a simple and
easy thing, but complex and ex-
tremely difficult thing the hard
est task which devolves upon the
adult life. The rough and ready
style of domestic government is
indeed practicable by the meanest
and most uncultivated intelects.
Slap and sharp words are penalties
that suggest themselves like to the
least reclaimed barbarian and the
most stolid peasent. Even brutes
can use this method of dicipline;
as Won may see in the growl and
half-bite with which q bitch will
check a too exigent puppy. But
if you would carry out with success
rational and civilized system, you
must be prepared for considerable
mental exertion-for some study,
some ingenuity, some patience, and
self control. Not only will you
have constantly to analyze the mo-
tives of your children, but you
will have to analyze your own mo-
tives-to discriminate between
those internal suggestions spring
ing from the true parental solicit
tudc, and those which spring from
your own selfshness, from your
love of ease, from your lust of do
minion, And then, more trying
still, you will have not only to de-
tect but to curb these base impulses.
In brief, you will have to carry on
your higher education at the same
time that your are educating your
children. Intellectually you must
cultivate to good purpose and most
complex of subjects-human ma
ture and its laws, as exhibited in
your children, in yourself, and in
the world. Morally, you must
keep in constant exercise your high
err feelings and restrain your lower.
1t is a truth yet remaining to be
organized, that the last stage in
mental development of each man
and woman is to be reached
only through the proper discharge
of the parental duties. And when
this truth is recognized, it will be
seen how admirable is the ordina-
ton in virtue of which human be-
ings are led by their strongest
affections to subject themselves to
a dicipline which they wonld else
elude.

As the cars were moving away from
the Terre Haute depot, a pretty
woman came from the ladies' car,
and rushing into the smoking-car
frantically appealed to everybody
to stop the train. Catching sight
of the conductor, she exclaimed
piteously, "Mr. Conductor do
please stop the train! I've left my
baby ~ The train was stopped,
and baby recovered, amidst the
hearty cheers Of the people on the
platform and the passengers ; and
while the young mother laughed
and cried and Rugged her little one,
she tried to explain how the baby
was such a new one she hadn't got
used to it yet.

HOW 10 Keep Canary Birds.

Place the cage so that no draft
of air can strike the bird; give
nothing to healthy birds but canary
and rape seed, mixed with water,
cuttleGsh bone and gravel on the
floor of the cage; also occasional
ly, little water for bathing; the
room should not be overheated
when moulting shedding feathers),
avoid drafts of air; give plenty OF
rape seed slightly moistened;
hard boiled egg and cracker grateds
fine are excellent; by observing
these simple directions, birds may
be kept in fine condition for years.
Bad seed kills most of the birds
that die; to which might have
been added, that canary birds are
not only very fond of, but benefit
ed by often having leaf of cab
bage, peices of apple, or other
green food, which serves to keep
down the tendency to fever and
prevent constipation. Our birds
battle each day as regularly as any
one washes the face, and with ap-
parent benefit too. When birds
are sick, and inclined not to eat
well, remove all the food for a day,
and then only give soaked bread,
from which most of the moisture
has been squeezed.

"COnsider Me Smith,"

A good story is told of old DR..
Caldwell, formerly of the university
of North Carolina: The doctor
was a small man, and lean, but as
hard and angular as the most irreg-
Mar of pine knots. He looked as
though he might be tough, but he
did not seem strong. Nevertheless
he was among the knowing ones,
reputed to be agile as cat, and,
in addition was by no means de-
ficient in knowledge of the "man-
ly art" Well, in the freshman
class Of a certain year was burly
beef mountaineer of Is or 10. This
genius conceived a great contempt
for old Bolus' physical dimentions,
and his soul was Mortified that one
so deficient in muscle should be so
potential in his rule. Poor Jones,
this is what well call him, had no
idea of moral force. At any rate
he was not inclined to knock under
and be controlled despotically by
man he imagined he could tie or
whip. At length he determined
to give the old gentleman a genteel,
private thrashing, some night, in
the college campus, pretending to
mistake him for fellow student.
Shortly after, on dark and rainy
night, Jones met the doctor cross
ing the campns. Walking up to
him, abruptly
"Hello Smith! you rascal-is
this you y and with that he struck
the old gentleman a blow on the
side of the face that nearly felled
him. Old Bolus said nothing, but
squared himself and at it they went
Jones' youth, weight, and muscle
made him an "ugly customer" bu
after n round or two the doctor
! science began to tell, and in a shor
time he had knocked his antagon
: ist down, and was astride of hi
chest, with one hand on his throa
D and the other dealing vigorous cuff
! on the side of the head. "Ah stop
I / beg pardon, DR.. CALDWELL mil
: take-for heavens sake, doctor
} he groaned. 81 really thought
was Smith I" The doctor replye
with a word and blow alternately
r at makes no difference; for a
: present purposes consider m
Smith," And it is said that oil
Q Bolus gave Jones such a poundin
r that'he never made another mistaIz
t as to personal identity.
