.the nQurly prayer OF every true
}teacbe i, g ord make Iae apt to teach."
Any tsachler that does not aspire to be q
better teacher day By day, is no teacher.
Again, those who DO strive to be better
teachers will reach the end they aim at.
iEs5 Here is 8 type of two.thirds of the
teachers at@work to-day on priceless
souls q agood scholar" familiar. with
the "higher branches" mot '.good in gov

lessons" A very common picture that,
is it not
This one is in earnest, you see. She
sees these defects and wants to remedy
them. There are many who see defects
but who do not try to remedy them
that is, very much. They usually lay
the faults on the pupils-they are
"thick.headed," they are ''low.bred," i"
they have s'no gumption," they have "no
interest; or 'parents are set against me, "
or they "don't help" me =; they don't care
about shaving their children educated" +"
etc.
This teacher is in earnest to improve; ;
she has made one step-she believes it is
possible to improve. Yes, she has made
two steps; abe believes that the fault lies
with herself; that is the frat aud great
step. Yes, the most encouraging feature
is the admission that the fault lies with
her and not with her pupils or patrons.
We believe from this fact, that P. NJ. L.
will, if she takes the right course, become
lust as successful as she wishes to be.
But what shall she do?
Now it cannot be said t!.at the S1ience
and Art of Education are easy to learn,
ard that thorough acquaintance can be
made with them in few days, months,
or even years, for it is the Science Of
Man that is meant, and the subject is a
very large one.
It is fact that right conception OF
what education means must be gained ;
most teachers think it means acquiring
knowledge--they identify it with the
acquisition of facts. But it means men.

ment of character and power. In carry
ing forward your work you must con-
stantly ask yourself, "Is this I am doing
education ?"
For example, you will have q class
before you that is studying arithmetic
Now you can handle the class from the
education standpoint, or the crammiDg
standpoint. In the former case You will
aim at increasing the power of the pupil,
you will try to lift him into q higher
stage Of thought. In the latter case, you
will be satisfied if he can recite the table
or the rule. As you conceive of educa'
ton you will shape your conduct. To
test your conception of education, you
will remember that education is pleas
ing act to the pupil; if he is not pleased
to come to school it is almost certain thai
you are substituting cramming for edu'
cation. Cramming is rarely pleasing il
may be if it has an objective point, how.

At the end of sixteen days after the
first royal egg was laid. the eldest princess
begins to eat her way out of her cell, and
about this time the old queen becomes
very uneasy, and wanders about distract-

can never be two queen bees in one hive,
and the queen knows that her daughter
will soon be coming out ofthe cradle and
will try to turn her off her throne. So,
not wishing to have to fight for her
kingdom, she makes up her mind to seek
a new home and take q number of her
subjects with her. Ifyou watch the hive
about this time, you will notice many of
the bees clustering together after they
have brought in their honey, and hanging
patiently, in order to have plenty of wax
ready to use when they start, while the
queen keeps sharp lookout for bright,
