TABLE PHILOSOPHY.

Uneasy fits the coat the stomach pays for
A sick palate is beyond the reach of physic
When dinner and appetite fall out it is time
for arbitration
The first lesson in dyspepsia is a surprise to
him who thinks he knows everything
Mix your remembrance of a good dinner
with gratitude to heaven and the host.
One man may be sentimental, another hun
CRY; no man can be both at the same time.
There is little choice between dinner with
no appetite and an appetite with no dinner
The life of the dinner lieth in elaboration;
the death of the diner may Turk in the lack
of it,
True charity warns the heart of him that
gives and him that takes the other sort is
more chilling than cold soup.
The appetite is a tool of natures tempering
if you will listen to her and reason you may
learn the best way to sharpen it.
Man prayeth for a long life; let him study
how to use short one and his prayers may
be answered.-Joseph Wilton in Town Talk.

PRINCIPLES OF EDUCATION.

The best physical delopment results in
health, strength, skill and graceful action.
The order and method of presentation de-
termne the order and method of representa-
ton.
The knowledge of general relations must be
preceded by the knowledge of special rela.
tons.
Motives are high in proportion to the alb
sence of selfshness and the presence of benev-
olence.
Physical skill requires repeated voluntary
action of those muscles which are to act
sklllfully.
The conditions under which presentation
takes place determine the probability of req
resentaton.
The purpose of education is determined by
the civil institutions of the country in which
the child lives.
The development of the moral character
depends upon the nature of the motives which
influence the will.
The power of demonstrative reasoning is
developed later than the power of moral or
probable reasoning.
The action of the representative faculties
is conditioned by the previous action of the
preventative faculties.
The highest type of moral character is
md in the man who performs right actions
from the highest motives.
That man is best educated who best knows
his duty. is best able to do his duty, and is
always influenced in his actions by the high
est motives
That mind is best developed whose capac-
4
est, and whose intellectual faculties are
controlled 10y firm will which is always
influenced 10y right motives. Journal OF

GEMS OF THOUGHT.

The only faith that wears well and holds its
c,,lor in all weather is that which is woven Of
conviction.
1t is true wisdom to speak but little of the
injuries you have received, or the good deeds
you have done.
If you would hit the mark, you must aim a
little above it; every arrow that flies feels
the attraction of the earth.
The first ingredient in conversation is
TRUTH the next good sense, the third good
humor, and the fourth wit.
Bad habits are the thistles of the heart, and
every indulgence of them is a seed from
which will spring new crop of weeds
Keep doing, always doing. Wishing, dream
ing, intending, mourning, talking, signing and
pining are idle and proftless employments.
There is no real growth of character ex-
cept by conquest over opposing difficulties
the doing right when It is against our in
clinations and prejudices.
Sufficient to each day are the duties to be
done and the trials to be endured. No man
is strong enough to successfully carry today's
duties and to-morrow's anxieties piled on top
1t is a high solemn almost awful thought
for every individual that his earthly influ-
ence, which had commencement here, will
never, through all ages, were he the very
meanest of all, have an end.
Almost all of us live more in the future
than in the present. Those who live mostly
in the past are on the high road to worse sor-
row than they know. To the healthy minded
the future has always the treasure to which
the present holds the keys.
That every day has its pains and sorrows is
universally experienced, and almost univers-
ally confessed, but let us not attend only to
mournful truths. If we look impartially
about us we shall find that every day has
likewise its pleasures and its joys.
The young should be taught to trust in
Providence and themselves, and to fight adj
verse circumstances to the last gasp In a
large ma lrity of such gladatorial combats
he who thus champions fate to the uttermost
wins the day; and at the worst it is consola
ton to defeat to feel that nothing man could
do to secure victory was left undone-Mon
