Making the Hand SklIaI.

1t is pity that the advocates of man.
ual training cannot help quarreling
over what manual training means and
what is proposed by it, writes contrib
,utor to the Globe Democrat. Plainly,
1t is not teaching trade, nor doing
subsidiary to brain work: but it is
making the hand skilful. 1t is training
the hand precisely on the same princi-
ple that the brain was, and is, trained.
The hand is not TO he considered as a
mere limb of the body, as we consider
a foot, but it is limb evolved from a
low service to high one; it is an or
gan exalted, and capable of greater
exaltation, exactly as the old brain of
Dinosaurs was capable of being made
into the new cerebral brain Of man. OF
course, a trained hand cannot work
without n trained brsin. and so our ed
ncators get puzzled, and wonder if,
after all, manual training is not brain
training.
The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1889-03-06

Mr.. lincoln was an early settler in
Sprinfeld, H., and used to tell some
spicy stories about pioneer life in that
locality. He said there were at first
in that fourishing town three regular
orthodox churches: Methodist, a
Baptist, and Presbyterian. and all
were getting along swimmingly, when
suddenly Universalist preacher made
his appearance upon the scene. and
held his meetings in the Court House.
He was young man of talent an |
soon made such progress in winning
people over to his views as to alarm
the regular ministers, who, in view Of
the danger, held q consultation and
agreed to'take turns in preaching the
Universalist fellow down. 1t fell to
the lot of the Methodist brother to
open the war, and large congregation
assembled to hear what he had to say.
He began his discourse in the usual
off-hand way by announcing that the
moral condition of Springfield was
good and that religion was prospecting
there; but of late there had come
among them, in the guise OF n preacher
of the gospel, one who openly taught
that there is no hell and that all men
are to be saved. But, my brethren, =

4 Chinese CObbler.

A Chinese cobbler is something of q
rarity in this part of the world, but one
has opened shop on Market street,
and is attending TO business with all
the assiduous attention characteriZing
soiled linen, says the st. Louis Globe
Democrat He sits on his little box
and hammers away at new half-soles
and heels as briskly as though born
and brought up in a New England shoe
shop. He came not long ago from San
Francisco, where, he says, there are
about seventy-five Chinese boot and
shoe factories. Some of them, he tells,
are ext ansive, employing over 100
hands. Machinery is used good deal,
but il is run by foot power. The wages
paid are much better than genera ly
represented. There is no such thing
as piece work-all are hired by the
week, month, or year. In some shops
they have a regular force, employ
some by the year, and hire extras as
they are wanted during the busy sea-
son. Steady men who understand
their business get from ten TO eighteen
dollars a week, thirty-fve to seventy
dollars a month, and five hundred to
eight hundre dollars year. Those
employed by the year are the most
skiiliul and industrious. Unless the
figures given by the manufacturers are
false, the wages paid average higher
than in most Eastern shoe factories
where a similar grade of shoes is made.
In fact, the Chinese manufacturers
complain that their business is great
injured by the ch ap labor of the East
tern States.

The B,Own-Up Mountain.

The great earthquake at Ban-dai-
San, japan, was undoubtedly produced
10y the sudden explosion of super
heated pent-up steam, either alone or
in conjunction with volatile gases. A
late sitor to the spot, Mr.. V. Harley,
describes the changes presented as
truly awe-insp.ring. The whole side of q
mountain three miles in circumference
had been completely blown away, and
hurled, as il it had been the mere out
side of a house, into the valley below,
CONF letely burying beneath it four
villages and their surrounding farms,
along with all their inhabitants. So
stupendous was the force of the explo-
sion that the mere wind-shock knocked
down like nine-pins the whole of the
trees growing on the opposite mount
nin-side. A small lake has been
formed over once cultivated lands by
the damming of the river in the val
