only uniform faded and old,
Folded away with a weary pain;
only the tale of II young life told
The hope and light of a household slain
Only grave where the boy was laid,
Out on II hillside cold and bare
Only sword with rusted blade,
Hanging over the mantle there.
Only memory, pure and clear,
Assun of summer in cloudlcss skies;
Only the need of IA tender tear.
Stealing down from womans eyes.

Clark who is in a very precarious

How To Teach Children.

Mr.. Aspinwall calls our attention
to an extract from an article in the
st. Paul Globe the Sth inst, treating
of the public schools and klndergar.
ten work in that city,-which may
be of interest to our readers:
To-day little children are taught the
principle that happiness comes first,
and that a child cannot learn intelll.
gently unless he is happy. Flogging
went out of use in city schools some
years ago. and among the little child
rem even seedlings are forbidden.
The kindergarten system prevails
among children from three to six
years of age, and kindergarten is IL
most charming place. The room is
almost invariably large and sunny.
Around a long table marked off into
small squares are little chairs. The
walls are covered with bright and
artistic pictures, notices and the gay
colored Work of the little kindergart-
ners--chains of paper links. woven
paper, mats, cards with animals
worked in with gay zephyrs, and
other articles of childish manufac-
ture innumerable. There is piano
and to a chance visitor it seems as if
the children were always playing
games. There is one game that is
always a favorite. A half dozen or
more children are chosen to be little
leaves. and stand to one side, while
the others join hands in circle and
sing a song about the coming winter,
and the winds invitation to the little
leaves to come and have a frolic.
The little leaves hear, and with a |
rush dance Into the circle, skipping |
and hopping and laughing till, as the |
verse of the song relates, Jack Frost |
nips them all, and down on the floor
huddle the bright-eyed. giggling little
leaves.
That sentimental game. known to
US of old as "Drop the Handkerchief
is modernized, and becomes the "Cat |
and mousie." 1t is wonderful to see |
how prettily the little ones initiate |
the stealthy step OF pussie stealing
along after mousie. and how delight
full they all seem when mousie hears
the pursuer and runs away around
the ring and back to place. The
games have all the interest of the
old-time favorites, but each is calcu-
lated to teach some fact in life, and
the words always mean something.
The kindergarten work is really Just |
play for the children, but uncon- !
sciously they learn the numbers, and |
the elements Of form. size and COM
parison. The multiplication table,
that ancient bug-bear, Is taught, or
at least the simplest part Of it is
taught, before the child IS aware that |
he is learning ut all. Fractions are
made most alluring, so deeply are
they sugar-coated, and the ideas of
things III general the infant mind |
absords are innumerable.
