Bamboo and the Chinese.

Without bamboo, the Chinaman
would be lost. 1t is of even greater
importance to him than rice, although
the latter is to the Chinaman what
wheat and corn are to the people of
other countries. The bamboo is more
to him than any other one article is or
can be to any other nation of people.
With bamboo he builds his house,
even to matching the roof, and around
it he puts bamboo fence. His carts
are made chiefly of bamboo, his cloth
ing'is often, for the greaterpart, made
of fine bamboo, and his hat is of bam-
boo. In hot weather he cools himself
with bamboo fan. His pencils are
of bamboo; if he smokes opium, his pipe
is of bamboo; if he smokes tobacco, his
pipe, all but the bowl, which is brass,
and perhaps q small amber mouth
piece, is of bamboo. In short, he uses
bamboo for almost every conceivable
thing, even to utilizing the young
shoots as an article of food, and very
palatable dish they make, too, when
fried in combination with other vege-
tables and meats.-Boston Globe.

Life of the Founder of the Kindergarten
School System.

Life of the Founder Of the Kindergarten
school System.
The founder of kinder .gartens,
Friedrich Froebel, was born in ODER
weisbach, Germany, in 1882. He
was not a happy child, for his mother
died when he was only months old,
leaving him to the care of a
harsh and unsympathetic father,
whose duties as pastor of a
church seemed to leave him no time
to attend to the motherless boy. Left
to his own resources, the naturally
thoughtful child dwelt much within
himself, and learned from his own
needs how to sympathize with child
ish thoughts and feelings.
When he was 10 years old he was
taken into his uncle's home, where he
remained for five years, enjoying the
first real happiness of his life. He de-
veloped a deeply religious spirit that
was yet in harmony with nature,
whose workings he delighted to study.
When a student in the University of
Jena he became dissatisfied with the
methods of teaching, feeling that they
did not produce those mental results
without which facts are of little use.
He decided to become an architect
and as a means of self support took a
few private pupils at Frankfort. II
was here that lie became acquainted
with Gruner, the director of the Model
Normal school, who quickly discover
ed in the young man remarkable tai,
ent for teaching. "Froebel, you must
be schoolmaster, he said, and offered
him position in his school. This was
accepted by Froebel. who soon realiz-
ed that in the school room he had
found his proper vocation. He wrote
to his brother that he felt as if he had
long been teacher and born to that
special employment; as if he had fin
ally found his native element; he was
like bird in the air or u fish in tthe
sea-"
But he was constantly seeking fol
better methods in his work. He felt
that they should follow the laws OF
mental development, and so studied
these with the suggestions of various
philosophic instructors. AS his idea:
unfolded he began to apply them in 6
little school at Keilhal, where hi:
brothers children were gathered with
o few other pupils. Ten years more
passed before he had completed hi!
system, which he called the kinder
garten," or child garden, term de
scriptive of the natural growth it wa:
meant to foster.
Although Froebel's system is rarely
mentioned except i'll connection will
elementary training it was elaborated
by him to include the entire schoo
life. 1t has not yet been widely
adopted for older pupils, but its infu
encc seems to be growing.-Chicagc
News.

He Killed Him.

Mr.. j. r. Gilmore relates that on
one occasion, during the civil war, he
was riding in a railway train, and had
fallen half asleep, when somebody
laid q hand an his shoulder and said
Don't want ter 'sturb yer, stranger,
but there amt nary mother sittin
place in the whole kear." The speaker
was q man of about 40 years, whose
strange clothing at once attracted Mr.
GilmOre's attention-the gray uniform
of Confederate officer, and in the
coat, just over the heart, q round hole
scorched at the edges and stained with
blood. He proved to be Union
, scout.
''How could you manage to live
with such a hole there?" asked Mr..
Gilmore.
ooh, 1 warn't inside of 'em just
then, though 1 warrant he war q
likely Teller, that war. orient ter "a
done hit, but he'd ter. This war he. y
He took out of his pocket a small
miniature. twas plain circlet of gold
attached to piece of blue ribbon. One
side of the rim was slightly clipped,
and the upper portion of the ivory
was stained with blood; but enough
of twas unobscured to show me the
features of q young man, with a full,
frank, manly face.
With feeling akin to horror, L was
handing the picture back to the scout,
when, in low, stammering tones, he
said: "'Tothcr side, sir. LUX at 'tother
side"
l turned it over and saw the portrait
of q young woman, scarcely more than
seventeen, a most beautiful and en-
gazing face.
With intense loathing I turned upon
the scout, and exclaimed: "And you
killed that man2"
Eyes, sir, God forgive mel I done
hit But couldn't holp hit. He had
me down; he'd cut me thar" turning
up his sleeve and showing q deep
wound in his arm, "an' thar" remov-
ing the bandage and displaying q long
cash back of his ear.
'His arm wus riz ter strike agin; in
another minute he'd hev cluv my
brain. l seed hit, sir. an / fired. God
forgive me, | fired! | wouldn't "a
done hit ef I'd knowed thet," and he
looked down upon the face of the
sweet young girl, and the moisture
came into his eyes. I'D hev shot i'm
somewhar but ycre, somewhat bat
yerev' and laying his hand over the
rent in his coat, he groaned as if he
felt the wound.
With that blood stained miniature
in my hand, and listening to the brok-
en- words of that ignorant scout, Ireal-
lied tho horrible barbarity of war;
