Four Centuries Ago,

Since the common school question came
up for comment in Massachusetts, 1t has
had an airing in all quarters, from the pull
pit to the comic papers. In defence Of the
schools, one ingenious writer has cited the
following extracts from the Oxford Cate
chism, which WAS taught, by authority, in
the reign of Henry ", of England
Q.-say me now. where was God when he made
Heaven and Earth?
Al say In the further end OF the wind.
Q.-Whereof was formed the name of AdamP
A A-Of four stars; this he their names Arcax,
Derx, Arostolym and Momfumbres.
Q-Of what state was Adam, when made?
A--A man Of XXX winters OF age.
Q OF what length was Adam?
A.--Four score and seven inches.
Q-How long lived Adam?
Anime hundred and thirty winters In this
world and afterwards In hell until the passion Of
our Lord God.
Q-what be the best herbs that God loveth?
A.--The rose and the lily
Q-Wherefore IL the sun red at even?
A.-For he goeth towards hell.
One cannot help wondering how such har-
lequinade would fare if an attempt was
made to promulgate it among the people
who had received secular education in
public schools like ours. At the time when
it was taught and accepted there was no
public school system in existence, though
the agencies of spiritual instruction were as
numerous and effective as now. It is, fur
thermore, worth while to note that during
the period when the above was forced upon
the intelects of the young, John Huss and
Joan of Arc were burned at the stake.

Variety in Reading.

Variety creates interest a variety of good
reading-matter will make all reading better.
It would be well to give class another
reading-book, a newspaper or magazine
for an occasional exercise. These, passed
from class to class of the same grade, would
do more to elevate our standard in this par
ticular than months of stale reiteration Of
threadbare tales. The practice OF reading
from textbooks of other studies is good
one where practicable. History may alter
nate with geography, while the reader is hid
aside; or something from the outside world,
as fresh as breath of pure air in an over
heated school-room, may reanimate the read
ing powers. Monotony in reading-matter
begets poor reading. Monotony in school
exercises produces dull, listlsss scholars.
Our school hours are long. They should be
interrupted by brief exercises. A song, a
march, gymmastic exercise, spelling
match, is no waste of time. On the con-
trary, the class will bend to its oars with
new vigor after such an interruption.

real teaching, are becoming less and less
necessary Hardness has been greatly re-
duced during the past year. and the trnan'
cies are confined TO few trivial cases, most
Of which are due to changes in teachers.
There have been only two truants who
seemed incorrigible, aud they have been
cured by kind treatment. There have been
few punishments Of any kind, and they,
like the truancies, are generally caused by
changes in teachers. The results seem to
prove that the attractive influence OF real
teaching will render punishment and COM
pulsion in attendance unnecessary. There
is in this direction far higher result than
this--to be seen by those who follow the
children from step to step, and grade to
grade. 1t is the steady growth in good char
acter Of the boys and girls in our public
schools. The moral effect of filling chill
dren's heads full Of good thoughts and their
hands full Of pleasant, absorbing work is
the formation Of good habits Of thought
and action.

George Whitefleld's Reminder.

George Whitefeld stopped at one time in
certain town in the house of general who
treated him very kindly. White6eld, as his
custom was, intended to speak to the family
individually about the gospel Of Christ, but
Satan said, snow George, don't say a word
to these good people, it will grieve them !;
they have been SO kind to you Why, you
cannot tell the general except man be

God;' they would be too harsh words to ad
dress to such man as that And you can

they have been to you the warning will not

Il 'sh little aided the temptation, so that
when Whitefield retired to rest thai night
ne had not spoken to any of the persons OF
he house according to his usual wont. This
troubled him. The Lord visited him by
night, and said to him, "Thou art my serv
ant, and yet thou hast not done my work,
aud conscience whispered, " These people
have been kind to you; is it not great uu'
kindness not to warn them of the wrath to
come 2" Aud then the Spirit said, You
dare not leave this place until you have ad
dressed to them word that might be blessed
TO their souls" But still the flesh was

Little Unremembered Acts.

Once in one of the thousand streets of
busy London, a man was walking whose
limbs seemed nearly paralyzed. Old, poor,
paralytic, he crept along SO slowly that
though after meeting him the narrator went
several blocks on aud made purchase, yet
as he returned, the poor man seemed to have
got but a few steps on his way. Just before
he reached him on his return, he saw him
stop at a crossing, crowded with teams and
carriages, many of them moving swiftly-a
dangerous crossing for one like him. At
this moment mar just entering middle
life, with an honest English face, strong
hearty, in workngman's dress, was seen
coming down the cross street fro.p the left.
As he came up he saw the dilemn of the
poor paralytic, and without wore being
said, put one strong arm around him and
bore him swiftly through the throny of
carriages TO the safe side, and then without
waiting for a word of thanks, went on his
way as If nothing had happened. A very
commonplace incident, but there was les
son in it. Much of our service in this world
may be as purely Incidental, as trifling, COM
pared with many other things, as little
marked, with as little knowledge even to
whom it is rendered it is a service all the
same and if there be recording angel and
book OF remembrance, we may some day
see records of these humber deeds standing
far higher on the page than many more
pretentious one.

A Laugable Incident,

The Philadelphia Inquirer tells good
story illustrating some OF the pulpit scholar
ship of the day. A preacher who had been
on trial in a country church in northern
Pennsylvania was told that it would please
the congregation greatly if he would quote
little Latin, Greek aud Hebrew in his SER
mons, taking it for granted that his hearers
understood it, when in reality none OF them
knew anything about those languages. The
preacher was puzzled. He didnt know
anything of either Hebrew, Greek or Latin
himself, but he was a native Of Wales, and
thought they wouldn't know the difference
if he gave them a little Welsh every time.
So he made a Scripture quotation in his
first sermon to them, and said This pas
sage, brethren, has been slightly altered in
the translation. 1t is only in the original
Hebrew that you can grasp its full meaning.
will read it to you in Hebrew, so that you
NAV comprehend it more exactly" and he
gave them the passage in good Welsh. They
liked it, and presently he gave them some
Welsh as Greek, aud then some more as
Latin. Then he was going to give them the
Chaldaic version in Welsh, when he saw
Welshman sitting by the door, almost burst
ing with suppressed laughter. The preacher
didn't lose his self-possession, but, instead
OF the Welsh quotation he was going to give,
said in Welsh, For goodness sake, my
friend, don't say word about this till
have a chance to talk with you" The
Welshman never betrayed the secret, and
the congregation, completely deceived, called
the preacher TO be their pastor.

Treatment Of Stammering.

An occasional instance of stammering is
to be found in the schools, and since the af
ficted scholars spend nearly as much time
in school as at home, and as it is also true
that the difficulty is mainly due to embar-
rassment arising from the patients conscious
inability to articulate readily, especially in
the presence of others, the school-room is a
good place for experiment, and 1t is desir-
able that teachers be familiar with some Of
the methods of treatment of this so-called
disease. To effect cure is certainly worthy
an earnest and patient effort. Stammerers
can usually sing without hesitation, because
the mind is occupied with the tones pro-
duced rather than with the effort made in
their production, and in this fact, accord
ing to most writers, lies the secret of sue
cessful treatment. DIR. w. B. Hammond, in
the British Medical Journal, gives the fol-
lowing practical hints on this subject "lf
the attention of the stammerer can be di-
verted from himself and his articulation, he
will often speak to others as calmly and as
UtIItCllN Ms he uOtS W iiiuotii Whch hiohV'
Now, there are various ways of accomplish.
ing this object, but the one that found
most effectual was the performance of slight
muscular action together with the articula-
ton of the difficult syllables. The words
that troubled me most were those that be-
gan with the explosive consonants-those
that require the sudden opening of the lips
for their enunciation-6, p, and I. could
no more have repeated the alliterative lines,
Peter Piper picked peck of picked pep
pers,' ETC., to other persons without STAN
mering than l could have walked to the
moon, though perfectly able to say the whole
piece through without fl iiw when speaking
alone With each troublesome word, es-
pecially with one beginning sentence, ]
made some slight motion with the hand or
foot, or even with single finger, and !
found that this plan enabled me to get the
word out without stammering With the
enuuciation of Peter for instance, would
tap the side of my body with the hand just
as opened my lips, and the word was artic-
ulated without the least halting In the
procedure, the attention is diverted from the
effort to speak to the performance of the
muscular action mentioned, and hence the
speech becomes more automatic than it is
with stammering. 1t consists in efforts to
render the speech automatic. No orator
thinks OF his articulation when he is max
ing a speech; no one in ordinary conversa-
tion thinks whether or not he will be able
to pronounce certain word, or to acquit
himself well in the manage of his
tongue and lips. His mind is concerned
with his thoughts, with what he is going to
say, not with the manner in which he will
articulate, and the more thoroughly we can
succeed in bringing stammerers into the
same way of procedure the more successful
shall we be in our efforts to cure them"
