81 Am Head Of the Family"

Sir John Swinburne tells with much
gusto how, whenever be is introduced
to anyone, he is asked: "Are you re-
lated to the poet Algernon Swim
burne?" to which he invariably re-
plies, "Bless your soul I am head Of
the Swinburne family, and he is re-
lated to me-" Sir John has just here
happily bit off the relationship Of
Westmoreland's Calisaya Tonic. It is
the head of the family it ranks first,
and the superlative merits of tonic
are embodied in it. 1t is pre-eminently
the favorite with practising physicians
and they generously prescribe it. The
formula combines the powerful virtues
of the Calisaya or Cinchona bark and
other valuable tonics and alternatives.
For indigestion, general debility, dys.
pepsia, torpid liver, impure blood or
malarial poisoning, is an invaluable
remedy. For sale by Robertson q

TEACHERS COLUMN.

The teachers who missed our last
convention missed an instructive treat.
Miss Garlilgton's class drill in pho
netics was quite lesson to such old
.tOgy teachers as the writer We have
recently felt more interest in the new
methods of teaching than we once
thought we could. Why is it? Be-
cause the new methods are the best,
and We believe that the teachers who
try them will agree with US.
1t is surely the duty of the teacher to
prove all things, and lay hold of that
which will impart the most and the
best in the least time. The new system
of teaching reading is certainly an i'm
provement, and we do wish that all
teachers would treat it with respect
enough to try it. If we expect to hold
our positions as teachers, we must Law
aside prejudices and falling into line,
march on. We cannot afford to be OBJ
stinate or we will simply be told that
we are out of date and that there is
another better qualified to take our
place.
But some will say, have not the
time, or the proper pupils. or -.
Away with excuses. In every recog-
niZed school there are at least six small
children. If they know the alphabet
and can even read little this does not
differ. Give them class recitation
in sounds each day, just as if they had
never seen a letter. You will be awk-
ward at first, but perseverance will
conquer" and the ignorant must learn
before they can communicate. A chart
like Miss Garlington's would be desira-
bic, but not many of us can have it.
Our chance is to print the words on the
board. This, too, is difficult; but with
a little practice your letters will soon
be legible. The children enjoy the
lesson greatly, and it will break the
monotony for you.
We are sure that in primary teaching
we have laid too much stress on spell
ing, and we have paid the penalty.
How we have ld60red to teach children
the letters, never being able to think
what vague instruments their names
were for building words. When we
first considered phonetic reading we
saw it only Through glass darkly,"
but now We prefer it to 1.-The good old
way.n
Another reason for our teaching pho
netic reading is that some of our pupils
will one day be teachers, and it is our
duty to thoroughly equip them for
their work. 1t is in the common schools
that We must prepare teachers for the
common schools. Remember, our pu-
pills will reflect our light. Without
every ray is given we cannot reflect the
pure white. Let US, then, be up and
doing lest our efforts be obscure. There
is a supineness about many of our
teachers which we are sorry to see.
Is it because they do not feel interested
in their work? Why don't they attend
our school conventions? If they would
come few times, they would become
interested. Try it. Surely in your
schools you have patron kind enough
to furnish way and a youth gallant
enough to drive you to town. This one
thing you can do; you can test the mat
ter and if you cannot succeed you will
certainly be excused. jail.
