THE ANTECEDENTs OF DISEASE

IHE ANTECEDENTs OF DISEASE.
Among the antecedents Of disease are
inertness in the circulation of the blood.
an unnaturally attenuated condition of
the physique. indicating that the life cur
rent is deficient in nulritive properties.
a wan haggard look, inability to digest
the food, loss of appetite, sleep and
and a sen alton of unnatural
languor. All these may be regarded as
among the indicIa OF approaching disease,
which will eventually attack the system
and overwhelm it, if it is net built up and
fortified in advance. Iuvigorate. then,
without loss of time making choice Of the
greatest vitalizing agent extant Hostel
t+r,s Stomach Bitters, an elixir which has
given health and vigor to my riads of the
sick and debilitated, which il avouched
by physicians and ANALYSTS to be pure ass
well as effective, which is immensely
popular iii this country, and extensively
used abroad, and which has been for
years past one Of the leading medicinal
staples of America.

ne opening of q school where all,

the opening of school where all,
parents and scholars, are strangers, is
the most trying time in teachers
life. If he or she passes the first dag
safely, he is safe for the whole term.
He did not deem either lax or stern
beginning to be right, bat at all times
to have decided authority. Mischief
is the best part Of a child. Outlines q
teachers failure is owing to the dis
position of q pupil. A teacher should
DE an autocrat as much as Gar, on
" the teacher is republican autocrat.
The teacher must be the absolute gov
ernor. but the children should take an
interest in that government. What is
a teacher to do with the great moral
questionss He mast deal with them
or he is not discharging his duty, NOR
al training must come in somewhere.
To put simply demerit mark for an
oath, or theft is lowering the great
sin to common standpoint. A teach
or should visit parents. Teaching is
stepping-stone to greatness, some Of
the greatest men and women Of our
country were teachers. The poor
teacher is, the veriest slave that ever
lived. He spoke of text books. Some
times the poorest text book makes the
best teacher, for it leads him 10 study
out a plan Of his own. These and
many other ideas we're advanced by
