Examining and Oramming.

Every teacher knows by experience that, when
he has to take his place in the examination eur
riculum, he has to submit to the system. and he
does his best to practice the examining .art"
And when, as every teacher nowadays must, he
tries to acquire the crammer's art-0Rnes
eOdem cOqiHlur. Teachers. examiners, cram
mers, and students, all have to take their place
in the vast examining machine which, like the
Prussian military system. grinds out a uniform
pattern. The huge examining mill grinds con
tinuaIly, and grinds very fast-unlike the mills
of the gods-but the grain it casts aside; it is
designed to grind out the husk.
| do not say that we can do without cXami-
nations; nor do | object to all examinations
under any co:idition. My complaint is confined
to the incessant frequency of examinations
the growth of the practice into a highly artf-
cial system, the creation of profession Of ex-
aminations and its correlative, the profession.
of cramming. the wholesale, mechanical and
hurried way in which the examinations are held
and the subjection of teaching to examining.
In sum, complain that the trick, the easily ac-
qured and cheaply purchasable trick of answer
ing printed questions, should now so largely
take the place of solid knowledge and be office
tally held out as the end of study. Frederic
Harrison, in the Popular Science Monthly.
When the King of Italy met the Emperor of
Germany, they were in a bad fix regarding ap
interchange of ideas in their own languages.
The King cannot speak German and the En-
peror cannot speak Italian, but both speak
French, and in that language they conversed.
This has given the Partisan wits a great deal of
solid satisfaction.

Fashion in House Painting.

An exchange says; In house painting there
has been revulson of taste against the differ
ent shades of olive. Stripping up with red is
also thing of the past. Other than the pure
white the colors most preferred now are the
different shades of yellow. The dark reds and
browns are also in favor, but the general ten
dency this year, is toward lighter colors. There
are very few now who care to repaint their
houses pure white. White is considered too
garing, reflects apparently more heat, and
shows very soon the effect of time. White
should rarely be used, except where the house
is situated in grove.

SUITABLE TO THE SEASON: STRAWBERRIES
AND WHIPPED CREAM.

Make some puff paste. Roll it out little
more than an inch thick; and with luted cut
ter stamp it to the desired shape, either round
or oval. Theu, with the point of a small knife
make a short incision i'll the paste all around
the top, about an inch from the edge, which,
when baked will form the lid. Put it into
brisk oven, and don't open the door for few
minutes. When nearly done brush the paste
over with the white of an egg, then sprinkle on
powdered sugar, put it back into the oven TO
''set'' the glaze. Remove the interior or soft
crumbs, and at the moment of serving fill it
with pint of straw berries, which should be
broken up with sufficient sugar to sweeten them
nicely. Spread over the top some spoonsful of
whipped cream and serve.
Even better than this the good old-fash-
ioned strawberry short-cakes of our grand
mothers days; and this is the way they We're
made: The very best and lightest biscuit
dough you can possibly make, either with bak-
ing-powders or sour cream and soda,-shoud
be rolled out about an inch thick; and baked

cake carefully with a heated knife, butter both
halves freely and spread fresh Strawberries
mashed with sugar between them. About four
layers, alternate cake and berries, is sufficient.

Teaching.



This term is unhappily applied to the pro
fessional work Of the school room, but home
influence carries with it far more character
forming power than the school can ever hone
to possess. 1t is commonly thought that lee
lures on teaching are Of no value to any one
unless he is engaged in that work. This is a
great mistake, for every one should be familiar
development of the mind not only for the plr-
pose of aiding others, but everyone needs this
knowledge to enable him to discharge the duty
lie owes to himself. We are all under certain
obligations to ourselves, to our God aud to our
feloWmen, and we ought to fit ourselves for
the discharge of those obligations. We all adj
mire healthy and vigorous looking plant or
animal, but how few ever think of mental viz
on or the conditions under which it il attained.
There is more information in Fitchs Lee
lures on Teaching than in any other work that
have seen on the subject. The champions of
the new methods are apt to 20 too far in their
zeal for some radical change in the Old meth
obs. The new methods are Just as apt to be-
come lleleS> as the Old, and in fact some of the
principles of the new methods when practced
by Inexperienced teachers cannot fail to retartl
the progress Of the pupils. Take for instance
Parkcr's statement that two years at least
should Ne spent with the average child in
learning to read First Reader reading. This is
a great waste of the valuable time of youth
when six months is ample time for the mastery
of this grade of work. In advocating the new
