Mr.. Warner Tries Il.


Mr.. Warner, respectable and law
bidIng citizen of Baker street, rode
home in an express wagon the other day,
having hand fire extlnguishcr and the
driver for company.
"What's that thing?" Asked his
wife in contemptous tones as she opened
the hall door.
whats that? Why that's fire ex-
tinguishcs-best thing you ever saw
meant TO have got one year ago"
"Jacob, you are always making fool
of your self" she continued as she shut
the door. every patent right man
gets around you as u eat lays for q
mouse"
"Docs, Ell? IF you know anything
at all you d know thai every store and
office in Detroit has one o these.
They've saved lots OF buildings, and may
save ours"
"You throw it at the fire, don't you?"
she ashed in sarcastic tones.
He carried it up stairs into n closet
without replying, and she followed on
and asked:
"Don't il shoot fire Out?'
"If you dent know anything, III
learn you something, 1t is full ofchcm-
icals you strike on this knob on top
and she's all ready 20 open this faucet
and play on the fire."
She CRIME as she walked around il,
and finally asked;
"Do you get a horse TO draw it
around %
"No, | don't get horse to draw it
around. Gou see these straps? Well,
! back Up, pat my arms through them,
and here il is on my back"
al see it is, she sneered.
"And can't run TO any part Of the
house with it: ?" he demanded. "Sec-
sce-?"
And he cantcrcd along the hall, into
the head OF the stairs when his foot
caught in the carpet. lie threw up his
arms and she grabbed at him, and both
rolled down stairs. He yelled and she
yelled. Sometimes be was ahead, and
then size took the lead, and neither Of
them had passed under the String
when the cxtinguisher, humping and
janlmIng, began to shoot of It's charge
Of chemicals.
"You old she started 10 say, I

up stars by turns, and she gasped
OH have you sent to fool asylum"
"Who's a fool 2" he roarcd, dancing
around with his eyes full Of chemicals.
"l'm fainting" she squeakcd.
"And I've broken my back he shout

1t was sad house when those two
highly respectable old people got so
that they could use their eyes and dis
cuss matters calmly. And she doubled

Mental niSclpiine.

Upon the subject Of mental discipline
A. & Merwin says:
Again, mental discipline is mental
habit. How DO we form habits that are
disirab'c Not by seeking some coarse
Of activity that shall create the habit,
but by trying to do something that is
desirable. Useful habits arc incidental
results of doing useful work. The me
chanic does not use extra care that he
may form habits of accuracy, but that
he may produce better work. The as
tronomcr does not make his obscrva-
ions with the view Of forming habits,
but to learn the pcnomena of the heav-
ems; and If he be called upon to observe
some phenomenon that OCCURS but once
in lifetime, be will hardly think OF
seeking that special discipline which the
observation may require by studying the
coniugation of the Greek verb.
| think we meet this fact everywhere
out of the SCHOOLS, that discipline is not
sake was asceticism in religion. Men
sought moral excellence by retiring
from the world, and contemplating the
things within them. The same idea of
discipline led men 10 look for knowledge
within themselves, instead of seeking it
by observing things around them. But
the system failed IN religion and morals,
as it failed in discovering truth and cdu
eating the intellect. We see why it
must fail; il wastes the energies of the
individual IN acting upon his own
powers. What is progress in its last
analysis? Is it not change of relation
We are superior TO our savage ancestors,
because our relations TO society and the
forces of nature differ from theirs. What
is the knowledge but mental accmula-
ton Of true relations? What is the rca-
son but the power to compare relations,
and what is wisdom but the ability 10
perceive true relations, and direct our
actions in accordance with them? Dis
cipline, habit, and character appear TO
be actively crystalliZcd in seeking
to our environments. What
is the truth that stands out in relief?
Clearly that character, habit, and dlsci-
plinc are the reflex upon ourselves of
activity, moral, mental, or physical.
Whence il seems to follow that useless
or vicious activity will appear as useless
or vicious character and discipline. On
the other hand VIC may be sure that the
study of those things which it Is most
important we should know, and the ac-
tivities which it is most important we
should pursue, will give the best disci-
pine, the most valuable habits, and the
most excellent character.
