TEACHING-THE EMPLOYMENT OF
POWER.

Any teacher who desires real success
must know what true teaching is and
must be willing to work for it.
Teachers who would possess true teach
ing power must earnestly desire 1t. ,Aspi.
ration must precede inspiration; and he
who truly aspires to be teacher of power
will never be satisfied with the simple
ability TO perform from day to day q
hundrum routine that will eventually
prove his pedagogical shroud. The
teacher with natural gifts for the
work, is often envied by those who might
surpass the object of their envy if they
were willing to make the necessary effort.
To the teacher who has such slight love
for her work that the hands of the clock
always move too slowly toward the hour
of dismissal, when class rooms and pupils
are left with sigh of relief to such a
teacher the work of teaching is the
most unpleasant drudgery, and the
results achieved are usually in keeping
with the teachers conception of her po-
sition. Such teachers are, as rule, joined
to such idols as text books, and teach no
more than the 'book says" if indeed, the
book is thoroughly and properly taught.
Vain it is to talk to such teachers
of aspiring toward the power of the true
teacher. 1fthey aucceed in keeping their
classes in good order, in preparing the
pupils to answer the questions of the off.
cial examination, and in retaining their
positions, all is 6ell. 1t matters not
whether they develop mental power for
future requirement or not The Car of
educational progress is. evidently getting
into motion, and the sooner or later the
teachers refuse to walk in the light will
be left far behind. Our we'll qualified
teachers must be willing to relinquish old
ideas, which have been proven erroneous.
Only the valuable old is worth preserving
if we would keep pace with the progress
of the present.
Wheu aspiration is fully awakened IN.
spiration will be the sure result; the desire
for cultivation cannot be repressed, and
education crowns all.
"When an acorn falls upon an unfa.
vorable spot and decays, we know the
exact loss; but when the intellect of
rational being for want of culture is lost
to the great ends for which it was created,
it is q loss which no man can measure"
These words of Edward Everett should be
indelibly impressed upon the minds of all
teachers. By thinking of them we con-
clude that the hours of chilhood are of
incalculable value; We have no right to
put the helpless child under the guidance
of one who does not know how to teach 3;
no one who does not know how to teach
should undertake it.-W. E. BisseN, in
the Teachers Institute.

How Far Can You See?

How far can we see from any given
height? This is question that occurs
to the inquisitiye mind frequently. From
the Eiffel tower, the highest artificial
structure in the world, say 1000 feet, we
would enjoy circle of vision bounded
by a horizon SO miles distant. From
Mount Everset, the highest peak in the
Himalayas $4,000 feet) one should see,
if the air was clear enough, nearly 200
miles.
Though the horizon is restricted, the
business or professional men, housewife
or social queen particularly, suffering
from loss of appetite, general debility,
dyspepsia or from threatened attack of
malarial fever, should see their own

fight is harder than in 1876 because We
have waited too long. But it is never

affiliated under very different leaders and
on sound principles if the men whom we
