Changes of a Century.

The nineteenth century has witnessed
many great discoveries
In 1909 Fulton took out the first patent
for the invention of the steamboat.
The first steamships which made regular
trips across the Atlantic Ocean were the
Sirius and the Great Western, in 1880.
In 1914 the streets of London were for
the FIRST time lighted with gas.
InslSl3 there was built in Waltham, Mass,
mill, believed to be the first in the world
which combined all the requirements for
making finished cloth from raw cotton.
In 1890 there were only twenty-five post
offices in this country. and up to 1887 the
rates of postage were twenty-five cents for a
letter sent over four hundred miles.
In 1907 wooden clocks commenced to be
made by machinery. This ushered in the
era of cheap clocks.
About the year 1888 the first railroad OF
any considerable length was built in tho
| United States.
In 1910 the first experiment of photo
graphy were made by Daguerre.
The anthracite coal business was begur
in 1920.
In 1886 the patent for the invention 0
matches was granted.

What is poverty? Not destitution, but
poverty? 1t has many shapes aspects al
most as various rs the minds and circumstan-
ces Of those whom it visits. To the savage
in the wiIds, it is fame to the laborer in
the cottage, it is hardship and priyation; to
the proud, it is disgrace and to the miser,
it is despair. 1t is u specter, haunting the
man who lives at ease, with dread of shame,
Such are its varied aspects but what is it in
reality? 1t is really deficiency present or to
come. 1t involves many other things; bat
this is what it is. Is it, then, worth all the
apprehensons and grief it occasions? Is ii
an adequate cause for the gloom of the mer-
chant, the discomfort Of the artisan, the
ioreboding signs of the mother, the ghastly
dreams which haunt the. he.ayaricious, the hu-
initiation of the proud? Those are severe
suiierings; are they authorized by the ma
ture of poverty? Certainly not; if poverty
induced no adventtious evils, involved
nothing but deficiency of the comforts Of
life, leaving life itself unimparcd. "IhC
life is more than food, and the body than raj
ment;" and the untimeiy extinction Of life
itself would net be worth the paugs which
apprchended poverty cxctes

The RIGHT OF SCHOOL DIRECTORS TO
SAY WHAT Books SHALL DE UsED.-On
the subject of the right of school directors
to say what books shall be used in the public
schools, the Pennsylvania School Journal
says:
Boards of directors Shall direct what
branches of learning shall be taught in each
school, and what books shall be used " SO
says the school law. This duty is imperative
and of course implies the possession of pow
er to enforce it. Suppose now board of di-
rectors agree upon "thc branches oflearning'
that they desire to have taught in their
schools, and parent insists upon his childs
taking up other branches, is the wish of the
parent to override the action of the board ?
II one parentbe allowed such a privilege can
| it be denied to all parents? And if allowed
to all parents and patrons q schools, would
| it not prevent all effective graduation and
classification of schools and introduce an
archy into the whole work of instruction.
Surely, our common school law does not
work its own defeat in this way.
But suppose, again, that a child in one of
our schools, backed by the commands of his
parents, refuses to study the branches of
study" the board of directors have directed
to be taught and for understanding which he
is found to be prepared and insts on study
ing other branches is not this kind of dis
obedience of refractory conduct" that will
after all other milder measures have failed to
secure compliance with the regulations iusti-
fy suspension or expulsion from school? Z?
There cannot be the slightest doubt of it,
and the Judges of courts have so decided. A
different decision would break up every or
ganization of graded schools in the state and
cripple the working of the whole system. So
obvious has this fact become that of late
years the question has seldom been raised
even by noyices.
To deprive the parent of child in one OF
our public school, of the right to control hi1
studies is not at all to take away from him
any privileges he ought TO enjoy under re-
publican form of government. lie has a voice
in the election of those who make schoo'
laws and who control the schools he car
keep his child at home if he desires To do so
bat If he sends him to public school hr
; must be prepared to allow him to compl,
4 with its regulations, including that in re
, spect to the election of branches of learning
4 Any requests he has to make will doubtles
a be respectfully listened to and so far as com
: patiblc with the general welfare of the schoo
2, complied with but to submit to outside die
i t0tion from parents is to subyert the author

y destroy all Legitimate school disiplne.

See that those about you are helped before
you commence eating yourself,
DO not eat soup from the tip, but from the
side of a spoon,
On passing your plate to be replenished,
retain the knife and fork.
Wipe the mouth before drinking.
Remove the teaspoon from the cup before
drinking tea or coffee,
Use the knife only in cutting food do
not raise il to your mouth.
Eat slowly, as eating rapidly is unhealthy,
If you find anything unpleasant in your
food, avoid calling the attention of Others to
it,
Close the lips when chewing your food,
Keep your elbows off the table always.
DO not speak with food in your mouth,
When asked to help your neghbor dc
not shove but hand the plate to him.
Do not turn your head and stare about
| the room.
IfanY one at the table makes a mistake
take the least possible notice it.

A TRUE MAN-Show us the young man
who can quit the society Of the young, and
take pleasure in listening to the kindly
voice Of age; show us the man who is ever
ready to pity and help the deiormed; show
lis man who covers faults Of Others with a
charity; show lis a man who bows rs polite
~ and gives the street ~ freely to the poor

values virtue, not clothes; who shuns the
company of such as gather at public
places to gaze at the fair sex, or make un-
kind remarks Of the passing girl; show us u

TIE MONEyLESS MAN.

tThis beautiful poem was composed years ago by
Henry stanton, Maysville, KY such gems OF poetry
are not often met with, written by authors whose
names are never known in hlstOryl
Is there no place on the face Of the earth,
Wherc charity dwellcth where virtue has birth?
Where bosoms in mercy and Kindness will heave,
Where the poor and the wretched shall ask and re-
Ceiye?
Is there no place on earth where knock from the
poor
VIII brInga kind angel to open the door?
An search the wide world wherever you can,
There Is no open door for the mOneylcss man!
GO look In the hall, where the chandelier light
Drives of with It's splcndor she darkness OF night;
Where the rich hanging velvet In shadOwy fold,
sweeps graceful, down with It's trimmings Of gold
And the mirrors OF silver take upa and anew
InlOng lighted vstas tsc wllderng view:
Go theYc In your patches and find II you can
A welcoming smile for tho moneycss man
look in your church Of the coud-reachln ng spirc,
Which gives back to the sun Its same look OF red
fire;
Where { e arches and columns are gorgeous within,
And the walls seem pure as the soul without sin
Go down the long alse-sec the rich and the great,
In the pomp and the pride OF thclrworldly estate;
Walk down In your patches ana md III you can,
Who opens the door to the moneylcss man.
Go look to your judge IN dark flowing gown,
with the scales wherein law wclshcth quietly down;
where he frovns on the weak and smiles on the
strong,
And puniShcs right while he justiie5 wrong;
Where jurors their lips on the Bible have laid,
TO render a verdict they've already made;
Go there IN the court room, and find II you can,
Any law for the cause OF she moneyess man.
Go look In the bank where MsmmOn has told
His hundreds and thousands OF silver and gold;
Where safe from the hands of the starvn and poor
Iiss pile upon pile Of the gttering orc
Walk up to the cOunter-ah, there yOu may stay
TIL your limbs grow old and your hair turns gray
And you'll iind at the bank not one Of the clan
WITH money to lend to none! less man.
| Then 60 to your hovel-no raven has fed
| The wife who has suffered so long for her bread
Kneel down by her pallet and kiss the death frost
| From the lips of the angel your poverty lost
| Then turn In your agony upward to God
And bless while lie smltes you with the Christening
| rod,
And youll find At the end Of ydur lfc's lit,c span,
| There's welcome above for the moneylCss man.

Professor Wilder gives these short rules
for action in case of accident: For dust in
the eyes, avoid rubbing, dash water into
them; remove cinders, etc, with the round
point of lead pencil. Remove insects from
the ear by tepid water; never put a hard in
strument into the ear, IL an artery is cut,
compress below. II choked, get upon all
fours and cough. For light burns, dip the
part in cold water, if the skin is destroyed, ,
cover with Varnish. Smother r fire with
carpets, etc., water will often spread burn
ing oil, and increase the danger. Before
passing through smoke, take Il full breath
and then stoop low. but if carbon is suspect
ed then walk erect. Suck poison wounds,
unless your mouth is sore Enlarge the
wound, or better, cut out the part without
delay Hold the wounded part as long a.
aan be borne to Il hot coal, or end o
a cigar, In case of poisoning, excite vomit
ing by tickling the throat, or by water o
mustard, For acid poisons, give acids; il
case of opium poisoning give strong cofie
aud keep moving. If in water, float on tn
back, with the nose and mouth projecting
For apoplexy, raise the head shd body 10
fainting, lay the perse- nat,

CONCLUSION.

This paper concludes an argument which,
without il, would be incomplete. For it is to
be observed that Mr.. Elwell's Essay upon
the construction Of the sixth section of the
Second Article Of the Constitution, even
with the matter added in its publication in
slip form, did not extend to discussion OF
the qualification clause of the Federal Con-
stitution, although that clause invites to de-
bate and cannot be overlooked in any thor
ough examination of the general question OF
Senatorial qualification.
BY !the authorizes and arguments hereto
fore set forth and by those now added to the
number, the position that a member of the
General Assembly is ineligible to the Sena
toral office, seems to be vindicstcd and es
tablished. BuC digputant in honorable de-
bate would be rash in asserting the falschooC
or insinccrity Of all opinions opposed to hi
own. And upon Il question fitted for pro
found study, and requiring true insight in
to our dual system of government, some
shing Of modest caution in forming opinions
and decorum Of language in expressing then
will always be required, A discussion begut
too late carried on amid disturbing influ
ences and unfortunately open to the imputa
tion of selfish interest in the disputantS, is b
no means sure to result in correct con1truC
ton of the Constitution. But whatever th
event, it i, but right, and it is demanded b
sclfrespect, that sincere convictions shall +,
ceive full yindicaton by debate, and ths
partial or mistaken opinions shall be resis
ed and exposed,
