cure the disease the cause must be removed and in
no other way can cure ever be effected WAR

It is a significant sign of the improve

to-day is against fogging as means OF
reformation or punishment 1t has been
abandoned, In great measure, all over
the world In the armies, and 1t no longer
forms a part of the discipline OF our
prisons. In the schools 1t IS last gong
out of favor, in fact, has almost dlsap-
peared.
And as regards parents and their chll-
dren, hogging is fast becoming obsolete.
In spite of all attempts to palhate Paren-
tai brutality, the factremains that 1t Is bet
ter to rule by love than fear and that the
person who cannot succeed through love
is not fit to rule. There is no sentiment
alism in this conclusion, for the accuracy
of the principle has been proved count
less times by experience, with beings
of far lower grade than children ever are
and of meaner quality of affection.
One phase of love explains the regard
of the masses for political leader, a
feeling somewhat similar attaches SOL
dier to his fayorite general, and the same
sentiment, though of far coarser qualty.

pirate chief.
To say that the child, which Is the
only animal except the dog that wall KISS
the hand which strikes it, cannot be con-
trolled through the feeling that Keeps
turbulent men in order is worse thaI
untrue-it is ididic. The parent wnc
confesses to inability to control ch!ic
without recourse 70 force merely admits
lack of Affection enough to enable
patience to have its perfect work, To-

The outgrowth of the land agitation in

These organizations, formed upon the
principle of the Band of Hope, exist in
quite number of parishes The follow
ing dogged is committed to memory by
each member:
A is the army that covers the ground,
B is the buekshot we're getting all round;
G is the crowbar OF cruelest fame,
D is our DaYitt, a right glorious name;
E is the English who've robbed us Of bread,
F il ror famine they've left us instead;
G is for Gladstone, whose life is lie,
81 is the harvest Wen hold or we'll die;
is the inspector, who when drunk is bold,
J is the jarvey, who'll not drive him for gold ;
Z is Kilmainhsm, where our true men abide,
/ is the Land League, our hope and our pride;
NJ is the Magistrate, who makes black of white,
n is for no rent, which viii make our wrongs
right
o is Old Ireland, that yet shall be freed,
p is the peelers, who've sold her for greed
Q is the Queen, whose use is not known,
f is the rifles, who keep up her throne;
is the Sheriff, with woe in his train,
7 is the toll that others may gain;
u is the Union that works bitter harm,
v is the villain that grabs up farm;
w is the warrant for death or for chains,
X is the Express all lies and no brains;
is Young ireland, spreading the light,
z is the zeal that win win the great fight.
