The Rod in the School
The New York Ereninq Mai Saw

The New York Erening Mail says:
An attempt is now being made TO set
aside the regulation of the Board of
Education, prohibiting the use of the
rod. The majority of superintendents
and teachers claim that they find the
pupils more ungovernable than former
ly. A return to corporal punishment
will meet with very strong opposition
on the part Of few radical humanitari-
ans who carry their ideas of the dignity
Of human nature and the power of
moral suasion to lengths not at all war
ranted by general experience in either.
But we incline to think that a school
well ruled in fear of the rod is better
than one i'll ruled without it, and that
is what too many of the schools are
now. With the elements that make up
the majority of the public schools in
our city, it is sheer nonsense to talk
about teachers being unfit for their po-
sitions who cannot rule without the
ferule. 1t is always true, however, that
the teacher who cannot govern himself
is unfit to govern others, and the teacher
who does rule his own spirit will not
use the rod when called to do so unmer
cifully nor unwisely. We had much
rather for the dignity Of human nature
that it was never needed to use physical
force Of any sort, but as long as human
nature partakes 80 largely of the phys
ical as it does, we rather suspect that
mind alone without physical force will
not triumph over matter, particularly
when matter is upheld by a stubborn
ness that has more of mulish instinct in
it than nationality.

Don't Be Discouraged.

Don't be discouraged, if, in the out
set OF life things do not go on smoothly.
1t seldom happens the hopes we
cherish Uf the future are realized. The
path Of life in the prospect appears
smooth and level enough, but when we
beginfo travel it we find it all up hills,
and generally rough enough. The jour
ney Is a laborious one, and, whether
poor or wealthy, high or low, we shall
hnd 1t so to our disappointment, if we
have built on any other calculation. To
endure what is to be endured, with as
much cheerfulness as possible, and to
elbow our way as easily as we can
through the great crowd. hoping for
little, yet striving for much, is perhaps
the true plan. Don't be discouraged If
occasionally you slip down by the way,
and your neighbors tread over you q
little; accidents happen, miscalculations
will sometimes be made, things will
turn out differently from our expecta-
hons, and We may be sufferers. It is
worth while to remember that prospects
are like the skies in April, sometimes
clouded, and sometimes clear and favor
able; and, as it would be folly to despair
of again seeing the sun because to-day
is stormy, so it is unwise to sink into
dependency when fortune frowns, since,
In the common course of things she
may be surely expected to smile again.
Don't be discouraged under any circum-
stances. Go steadily forward. Rather
consult your own conscience than the
opinions of men, though the last are
not to be disreOardad Re- indusfrioua
be frugal, be honest; deal in perfect
kindness with all who come in your
way, exercising a neighborly and oblig-
ing spirit in your intercourse; and If
you do not prosper as rapidly as any of
your neighbors, depend upon it, you
will be happy.

THE NEW THEoRY.-Mr. Corvin, of
London, in his valuable pamphlet on
hydrophobia, indorses the theory of DR..
Thompson, according to which it is a
vulgar error that patients in hydropho-
bia are mad. They are not mad; there
is no such thing as madness connected
with the disease. The Duke of Rich
mond, who, while Governor General of
Canada, was bitten by a rabid fox, and
suffered from the most violent par
oxysms, which ended in death, had suf-
fcient fortitude and self-control in the
intervals to give all necessary directions
for the conduct of public business, and
the settlement Of his own private affairs.

In THE OLDEN TmE.-In the mem
ory of people now living, it was the GUS
tom of the country that housewives
should card, spin and weave their own
wool and fax. The children and the
grown folks were dressed in home-spun
cloth. The bride went to her joyful
husband with great store of linen, pre-
pared while she was "spinster in her
mothers house; she hired out in the
families of the neighbors to earn money
to add to her dowery, and her stalwart
spouse wrought. out his time at the
plow, loom, anvil or bench of some sub
stantial citizen. He served seven years,
asJacob served for Rachel, and Thought
the years not long for the love he had
for her,"
The hired men and maids sat at the
table with their masters and mistresses.
The matrons wrought in the midst of
their hand-maidens, just as Penelope
did in the midst Of her women. The
sturdy children waded through the
snow two or three miles to the district
school. They were soundly whipped
with o birchen rod when they were
stupid or unruly, and the boys followed
the plow as soon as they were out OF
pinafores. In city and in country the
greatest wealth procured no such lux
ury and convenience as that enjoyed by
the middle class to-day. The finest
acquisitions, compared with what is
now needful for common comfort,
would seem poor and mean.

No Mother.

The other day, when n stern and dig
nified judge ordered prisoner to stand
up and offer objections, if he had any,
10 being sentenced to prison for a long
term Of years, the prisoner rose and
said:
II never had n mother to shed tears
over me-"
His words entered every heart in the
courtroom. He was a rough, bad man,
in the middle age Of life, and he had
been convicted Of burglary, but every
heart softened toward him as his lips
uttered the words. He felt what he
a. he continued:
"If had had a mothers love and
mothers tears-some one to plead with
me and pray with mel should not now
be what am"
Ali That's it, There is q power in
a mothers love, in her tears, pleadings
and prayers, whose influence is hardly
10 be realized. God pity the lad who
has no home to go to; no mother to
whom he can tell all his troubles and
his griefs; no mother to put her arms
around his neck, and beseech Heaven to
keep him in the right paths. There is
no heart like a mother'R Her child
may wound it again and sgain, yea,
pierce it with a sword, and its last pulsa-
tions will beat for the migrate. It is the
first TO excuse his faults, the last to con-
denim. There is no love like a moth
er's-none 80 enduring, 80 tender, SO
far-reaching. 1t is lavished upon the
child In the cradle, and it follows the
boy over the ocean. 1t calls up the
wanderer the first thing in themorning,
and it remains with him until sleep
closes the eyes. When a mothers love
for her offspring dies out, it is certain
sign that he has become a being too
atrocious to longer live among men.
There are no tears like q mothers.
Nothing can 30 tighten the sorrow of
child-nothing to restrain a mind
from wandering into evil paths. The
man who looks back over childhood and
youth, regrets nothing so much as that
he has brought tears Of sorrow and sad
ness to fond mothers eyes. Every
tear a mother sheds over q wayward
child is recorded in the Great Book, and
he shall answer for it.
There are no prayers like mothers
none that reach SO far, and none so ear
nest. The wanderer on foreign shores
feels this in his heart, and he is thank
full to Heaven that he can feel it.
Kneeling at her bedside, and asking the
angel to guide the feet of her children
in the right paths, who can doubt that a
mothers prayers are heard in Heaven
90 nnuar ha1 a r,,Okba, 20 a1.al &aara
over me-"
The sorrowful words of that burglar
might be the words of many evil-doers.
"No motherP means aching hearts,
burdened minds, deadly woes, and
paths which lead down to ruin. Heaven
be kind to the lad who must battle
through the world without a mothers
tears, mothers prayers, and a moth
er's boundless love to give him hope,
strength and courage.

A MAN whose morning dram was too
much for him, in saddling his horse got
the saddle on wrong end foremost. Just
as he was about to mount, a neighbor
came up and called his attention to the
mistake. The horsemAn gazed for a
moment at the intruder, as If he was in
deep thought, and then said "You
let that saddle alone. How do YOU know
which way am going?" And he looked
daggers at the oficious neighbor.

UNJUsTLY CoNDn1EKD.-"We know

of politics and get in too much. The

IT TAXES A FElfALE.-Of course, any
great slummux of man can push a
lawn-mower up and down and around,
and he can nibble off the grass after q
fashion, but when it comes down to ar
tistic work pass the mower over to q
young lady. Atnoen yesterday lassie
of eighteen put mower at work on q
strip of grass on Ledyard street, and
before she was half through over thirty
menand boys were leaning against the
fence and applauding. The first few
feet were cut on the bias, leaving strip
along the curbstone as fringe. On
the other side Of the walk she started
out to tuck and rufie, but finally cut
most of the grass on the gore and fin
ished up with deep hounce along the
street. Over by the fence she hemmed
up narrow strip, bound it taround with
a clean cut, and then performed some
of the incest plating ever seen, leaving
enough tall grass along the fence board
to'serve as an overskirt to the lawn. The
boys thought there ought to be more
padding around the horse-block, but
she was busy falling over the handle of
the mower Just then and hmped into
the house without taking any of their
advice.-Detrost Free Press.
