A DECISION Of the criminal section OF
tho Snpreme Tribunal of Germany given
on June IA, 1877, has Just been published
with respect to the question whether in in
the Bishopric of Munster Catholic school
masters and schoolmistresses are legally
bound either by the laws Of the state, or in in
virtue of ordinances legally issued by co COM 4
setent authority, to give religious lnstrqe-
ton in the national schools, even in cases
where they may not be provided with the
Missio Canonica, or approval of the eccle-
siastical superiors. The Court has decided
,Nirma,ively thet they are SO bound. This
decision will place the teachers ln a posl'

The bracing air that auickens the Ian
guild blood and brings premonitions OF ap'
preaching winter, comes as timely remlnd>
er that the holiday season is over and that
the time for active work has arrived. Our
churches have already headed the warn
ing. and their executive committees are
even now at work planning new methods
Of usefulness for the coming season and
deyising new schemes for extending the
hold Of the churches upon the people
Our temperance friends are Doubtless
equally jealous in concerning proj eeti for
weaving the youth from the dansefoos
pleasures that surround them and bring
ing them under more salnrtay indnerces.
1t is wholesome sign of our tins that
no MANY of our citizens devote Their lels-
ure time to work for the elevation ard sal
ystion of the masses. At the SANE time
it is to be regretted that so much we'll
meant labor is rendered practically value
less through lack Of proper organization
There are hundred directions in which
the philanthropic ardor Of our people
might be proftably directed, and in whiel
results of palpable benefit might t'
achieved if there was ouly proper un
derstanding and concert of action amon
well-meaning people. If the zeal that
now in many instances frittered away i
individual or sectarian effort could b
united in action for common good
would achieve far more than is possibl
at present.

A Difficult Drill.

At the West Point military school the ca
diets are taught to ride bareback, to ride with
out stirrups, to jump hurdles, to use the pis-
tol and saber while riding, to '@cut heads to
the right and left," and other feats. The
''heads" are leather balls about four or five
inches in diameter, which are placed on posts
of various heights. The trooper moving at
a rapid gallop must cut these heads riding to
the right and left, and also cut heads resting
on the ground, the last a rather difficult feat
when done to the left, compelling the rider
to swing his saber over his bride hand and
reach down from horse sixteen hands high.
They also cut heads with the right and left
cut at the instant Of jumping hurdle. The
most skillful maneuver is the cutting OF
head upon the ground between two hurdles
placed about forty feet apart, the trooper
riding at full speed and cutting to the right
and left in the interval between leaping the
hurdles. The trooper is also taught to turn
his horse at a full gallop in circle four
yards in diameter. Most of the feats are per-
formed in the riding hall, a room 100 feet
long and by 68 feet wide, with tan-bark
floor. The parade ground is about $50 yards
long by $50 in width. Seventy-five horses
are kept in use, the stables accommodating
about 100 The animals are cared for by a
detachment of regular soldiers provided for
such service, the cadets being too busy to
perform this duty.

Saving Hateful Things.

What a strange disposition is that which
leads people to say ''hateful'' things for the
mere pleasure of saying them! You are never
safe with such person. When you haze
done your best to please, and are feeling very
kindly and pleasantly, out will come some
underhand stab which you alone can compre-
hend, sneer which is masked, but which is
too we'll aimed to be misunderstood. 1t may
be at your person, your mental failings, your
foolish habits of thought, or some little secret
opinions confessed in moment of genuine
confidence. 1t matters not how sacred it may
be to you, he will have his fling at it; and,
since the wish is to make you suffer, he is all
the happier the nearer he touches you heart.
Just half dozen words, only for the pleasure
of seeing q cheek flush, and an eye lose its
brightness; only spoken because he is afraid
you are too happy or too conceited. Yet they
are worse thar so many blows. How many
sleepless nights have such mean attacks caused
tender-hearted mcrta]s! How after them one
awakens with aching eyes and head, to re-
member that speech before everything-that
bright, sharp, well-aimed needle OF a speech
that probed the very centre of your soul!

Medical Uses Of Glycer1ne

Among the various uses for which gly-
cerine has been found specially valuable as
medicinal agent, is that of food tor infants !;
when raised by hand they can be kept com
paratively free, it is said, from many OF the
ills to which they are liable, by the substitu-
ton of from four to six drains of glycerine
for the amount of sugar usually aided te the
cream, milk, or water constituting their diet.
In cases of deafness, too, of adults, from de-
ficiencv, accumulation, or hardness OF the
cerumen, glycerine is alleged to be one OF the
best remedial agents introduced into the ca
nal by means of raw cotton saturated with it.
It is also claimed to be the only known agent
which will preserve vaccine lymph for any
considerable time without deterioration7 it
has been found extremely useful in nuraer-
Gus skin diseases, and its serviceableness has
been satisfactorily proved in connection with
all the various substances used locally in dis
eases of the eyes, except nitrate of silver,
which latter it decomposes.

der my notice for several years. but more
particularly during the last two years, kind

heavy pain in the chest walls. The disease,
in large majority of cases, is confined to
the left side. The pain is circumscribed, and
limited to space of not more than two inches
in diameter, just below and little to the left
of the left nipple. At times the pain is very

Nary the Woman

Some men marry dimples, some eyes, afew
ears; the mouth, too, is occasionally married;
the CHA, not so often. A young man once
fell head over heels and ears in love with
braid. He was so far gone that he became
engaged to his braid, bnt new mode of hair
dressing having been adopted by his fisrce,
the charm was dissolved and was never re-
newed. What do young men marry? Why
they marry these, and many other bits OF
scraps of wife, instead of the true thing.
And then, after the wedding, they are sur
prised to find that. although married, they
have 20 wives. He that would have wife
must marry woman.

She Couldn't Find 1t.
From the Detroit Free Press !

An old woman sat in the depot and her
carpet-bag and baize umbrella rested against
the next seat. The folds of her old-fashioned
dress were neatly smoothed down, her spec
tacles were set on precisely on her nose, and
she looked very much like an old lady who
reads the Bible all day Sunday and knits dur
ing the week, and tells little boys long stories
about Moses and Nebuchadnezzar. She sat
with her hands folded with prim nicely in her
lap, when newsboy rushed into the waiting
room and yelled ''Here's yer Publican, full
account OF the Bashi-Berzooks."
'What did you say, boy?' asked the old
lady smiling like maiden aunt.
''Want paper, mann? Ezoroun is busted,
and old Hidaddly Popoloup has lighted out
of lower Turkey with ten thousand Erzoro-
mans"
'You don't say?' squeaked the old lady,
becoming interested, and hunting through her
pocket for two cents.
'.Mister Ali Sahib went to board with d
flush and Busca Patrowich, ESQ.,, shook up
four aces and hauled in the tim"
'sMy sakes J" screamed the old lady.
The boy took a fresh chew of tobacco and
started in again.
'sThere was no use for Mukhtar Pasha to

The old lady took the paper. Half an hour
afterward she was hunting all over the depot
for that boy. She stopped policeman and
had him look over the paper.

good man, but he is not my choice. "Wel,
he said, "there is a chance to make some
money, and when man has no preferece be-
tween the candidates, and he can get some
none, for his vote, don't think there is
anything wrong IN taking it." l answered
him that some people regarded it in that light.

and hey have SO. 600 to pay for it" TO the
question of who offered it, witness said, ''you
