Schools aud Seh-Improvements.
BY ?. N. sLYE.

Schools are organized institutions
to train and educate those attending
them, and why need educate! Why
not pass orr days in blissful igno-
ranccl lille that imereaseih knowl-
edge increasrtb pain but We believe
not in proportion to the increase of
pleasure, for he who knows little
enjoys little.' This brings us to- con-
slider, which is the better way to go
through the world. All wish to have
the greatest possible amount of pleas
ure and profit. How to obtain this
has been the study of the ages and is
yet an unsettled question. School
days form large part of our allotted
time, therefore how to spend them in
the right way, is of Importance to
those attending school.
Scholars who mispend their time
at school seldom amount to much in
after life. 1t should ever be borne
in mind by the student that a per-
sons usefulness and position in life
depend upon what he really is. He
must have real sterling manhood or
womanhood to successfully contend
with the breakers of life's ocean.
How we are to obtain OF increase our
share is life's immediate problem.
One means open to us all is self-im-
provement.
By self-improvement, we mean
that self culture Of mind and body
which developes and enlarges the
real worth of the individual. All
culture is not improving in its effects.
Cultivating the baser faculties of
human nature degrades and weakens
it. He who is of no use to others
is worthless to himself and there are
many persons in the world who are
not only useless, but detriment to
society. Couture is not the great
moulder of character" Human
powers may be divided into three
classes: physical, intellectual and
moral. They are mutually dependent
and require equal cultivation to pro-
duce a symmetrical being.
The disappointment development
of these powers produces the worth
less and even dangerous classes of
society. To illustrate, suppose the
physical powers DE highly developed
and either the intellectual, or moral
powers neglected, though an almost
perfect specimen of physical man.
hood results, it is of little use, for
there is lack of intelligence or NOR
atty to direct into useful channels.
The acrobats, pugilists and prize
Fighters are samples Of such cultiva-
ton. If the physical powers be ne
elected we have as a result another
extreme example, which can be found
in our colleges, they much resemble
the comic pictures often seen of men
with great heads and small bodies.
They lack physical ability to put into
effect the conceptions of their minds.
If intellect and body be developed
and morality dwarfed, the result is
such bold daring men as Aaron Burr
and Benedict Arnold. From this we
conclude that true improvement
requires the harmonious, symmetrical
development of the physical, mental
and moral faculties. The motive for
self-improvement should not be to
gain fame or renown, but to reach the
highest possible degree in the scale of
humanity. To attain to this degree
OF perfection should be the great
over-mastering desire and the business
OF life.

JUsT previous to his return home
Hon. II. B. Warner was interviewed by
a Milwaukee Republican reporter. In
speaking of the position from which
he had recently retired, and the SUBJ
ordinates in the State Department dur

is reported as saying:
81 think l have held the most re-
sponsible position at the capitol, and
myself and associates have left it in a
condition to better which | am sure |

spared neither labor nor pains to keep
the office in excellent trim. The i'm
provements that have been made there
show for themselves. We have spent
our spare time during the past two
years in re-arranging and re-sorting
the papers that had accumulated there
from the beginning of the State gev-
eminent. All the old war claims, leg
islative papers and other documents
have been pigeon-holed, and for the
first time since the establishment of
that office, order reigns in the vault
connected with the Secretary rooms.
Before closing this
talk with you, | would like to say that,

In case of Guitteau's conviction of
the murder of President Garfield, SEN
tence cannot be pronounced until the

auires that in case of conviction for
murder, sentence cannot be pronounc-
ed until thirty days after the begin
ming of the next term of court in

of course, is to give the convicted per-
