it--and yet it stood as firm as ada

temple was no more its high walls
lay scattered in ruins; moss and
wild grass grew there. The young
and gay that had reveIed there had
passed away
saw child rejoicing in his youth
The idol of his mother, the pride
of his father. / returned and the
child had become old trembling
with the weight of years, he stood
the last Of his generation-a strang-

| saw an old oak standing in all
its pride on the mountains-the
birds were caroling on its boughs. |

sapless, the winds were playing al
their pastime through its branches.

Ialnage.


There are children turned out
from the schools who once were full
of romping and laughter, and had
cheeks crimson with health, who
are now turned out in the after
noon pale-iaced, irritated, asth-
matte old before their time. 1t
is one of the saddest sights ON earth
IAN old manish boy, or an old wo-
manish girl. Girls ten years of age
studying algebra! Boys twelve
years of age racking their brain
over trigOnOmetry Children I'M
acquainted with their mother tongue
crying over their Latin, French
and German lessons! All the vi
vacity of their nature beaten out of
them by the heavy beetle of a Greek
lexicon! And you doctor them for
this, and you give them little
medicine for that, and you wonder
what is the matter with them. |
will tell you what is the matter
with them. They are finishing their
education! In my parish in Phila-
delphia little child Wasso pushed at
school that she was thrown into a
lever, and in her dying delirium, all
night long she was trying to recite
the multiplication-table. In my boy
hood | remember that in our class
at school there was one lad who
knew more than all of us put to-
gether. If we were fast in our
arithmetic he extricated us. When
we stood up for the spelling-class he
was almost always the head of the
class. Visitors came to his fathers
