A few years ago : Philadelphia
clergymsn discovered an antidote for
flies, or at least he said he did. He
had occasion to change his abode. We
do not know just what the occasion
was. Probably he could not pay the
rent, or perhaps his relatives out west
who were coming to see the Centen-
nial, found out. his old address, an d
wrote to him that they could not en-.
dure life any longer. without seeing
him, and would visit him all summer !;
at any rate he moved. He had in his
house number of house plants, and
sent them to the new house the day
before he moved. Immediately he
was beset with swarms of flies, al
though he had previously enjoyed
perfect. immunity from these pests.
And when he got moved, and settled
down among his window plants again
the flies ceased to trouble him. 1t 10
asimple and very pleasant experiment.
If it fails to drive away the flies, you
will 1t least succeed in filing your
house with plants, which 10 q pleasant
thing to do, ~ it will keep you em.
ployed sll the time In caring for them,
and you will have plenty of time for
vain regrets, when the plants all freeze
along about Christmas. But there
may be something in 1t. We have the
word of clergyman for it, and we
do not see Why even clergyman
should tell y fib about such little

lT is not an essy matter to make q
sensible speech about female educa'
ton, but Earl Granville succeeded in
doing it two weeks ago at the annual
distribution of prizes In . North Lon
don school for girls. He remarked
that objections were very often made
against giving high class education
to women. It was said that it might
turn young ladies into pedants aud
into blue stockings. He would cer-
tafnly admit ..that he, had met come
very dissgreeabls specimens of wo-
mankind, who readily deserved those
terms, bat they were ladies who had
some slight smatteriug of knowledge,
and who had not really received a
sound end first.rate education. Had
not young men, however, occasionally
been found to be pedantic and conceit-
ed in the extreme? Another objec-
ton was that women were being taken
out of their sphere; but was it per-
fectly clear that thorough moral, in
tellectual and religious education
must spoil women for their own pecu-
liar sphere, for their duties - daugh-
ters, wives, mothers and members of
the community? The times were past
when great literary character could
assert that 1t was easier for . coquette
to marry than highly Instructed
woman, and the time had come when
men would know how to appreciate
those members Of the opposite sex
who fitted Themselves by studying
and industry to become really useful
members Of the community to which
they belonged.
