To be a good woman is better than to
be fine lady.
He who is most slow in making a
promise is the most faithful in its per-
formance.-R0uSsedu.
A mans virtue must be measured, not
by his extraordinary efforts, but by his
usual course of action.
We may attain all the excellence of
which humanity is capable while doing
the simplest daily duties.
Beauty enchants and grace captivates
for season, but a WEI informed mind
and cultured heart win make a home
beautiful when the bloom of beauty has
faded and gone.-Handford.
Worrying is one of the greatest draw
backs to happiness. Most of it can be
avoided if we only determine not to let
trifles annoy us: for the largest amount of
worrying is caused by the smallest trifes.

Duty puts blue sky over every man
up in his heart it may be-into which
the skylark Happiness always goes sing

The true order of earning should be,
first, what is necessary; second, what
is useful; and third, what is ornamental.
To reverse this arrangement is like be-
ginning to build at the top of the edffice.

gender.

Questions for the Teacher.

Do your pupils throw ink on the floor?
Do they keep their books and desks in
good order?
Do they say 81 done it, ~ seen it"
etc?
When your pupils speak to you, do
they start off with SAY?
Do they pass to and from class
in quiet, prompt, orderly manner?
Are you sure there is no swearing or
unclean talk ON the play aground?
Do they steal crayon and mark on
fences and buildings on the way home?
Make the School-room Attractive.
/ once remarked, in the hearing of one
of my directors, that l was going to pol
ish the stove. | noticed a smile on his
face, and asked him whathe was laugh
ing at. He replied "That stove has
stood there for fifteen years, and has
never seen a bit of polish" The appear
ance of the stove corroborated his state
ment. This instance illustrates a COM
mon mistake of teachers and school
boards. Some people think that if the
roof keeps out the rain and the stove
gives sufficient heat, that is all that is re-
quired. School-houses may be
made very attractive or very tiresome to
the little folks. 1t is in their young
er years that their tastes as well as their
habits of study are formed. If the
school-house walls are bare, if the floor
remains unswept, if they find their seats
covered with dust in the morning, and
the stove looks more like storm-beaten
bake oven than modern heating appli-
ance, it is not surprising that they do
not take to their books kindly" School
rooms should be swept and busted. The
walls should be beautified by bright-col-
ored picture cards. There is nothing so
attractive to the eye of child as bright
colors When a child notices that a room
is neat he is more apt to be careful of his
personal appearance, and to clean his
boots upon entering the room. Teachers
who attend to such matters are the sue
cessful ones. And as it is our duty as
teachers to attend to everything within
our power that molds the child's mind
for good in after life, it is necessary that
we pay particular attention to the condi-
ton of our school-rooms.-.Ed. Gazette.
