We do not know why
SCOTS Emulsion of cod-liver
oil is so useful in those simple
but varied conditions which
you know as {" having a
cough" We cannot explain
it: we only know the fact
from experience.
1t may be due to the COM
bination of tonic effects of
cod-liver. oil and the hypo-
Phosphites it may be partly
due to the glycerine. There
are many effects in medical
practice the causes of which
appear to be plain, but how
those causes produce those
effects we do not know at all.

How art should be taught in the public
schools is a problem of never-ceasing in
terest. There is no unanimity Of opinion on
the subject, but on the contrary a distract
ing diversity of practice. with, in the main.
very poor results. In mechanical drawing
rules must be followed very precisely. One
general conclusion may be affirmed of teach
ing the pupil from co Iies-the teaching
is absolutely useless in developing faculties
OF observation OF training the hand to work
from nature. Anybody may copy. and
pupil may produce very beautiful examples
from copies, and possibly feel pride in
them, hut first work from nature after
long experience of copies is bitterly disap-
pointing. The practice in San Francisco.
and probably in every other town in the
State, has been to set copies before the
pupils and let them do their best
without further aid. There cannot be en-
thuSasm in this stereotyped method; out
lines or flourishing designs, to show graces
OF curve or principles of balance and radia-
ton, soon cease 10 interest the mind and
monotony engenders care'essness- For a
considerable time a departure has been
made from this method in one of the schools
of San Francisco, and the results afford
conclusive proof that the change Is in the
right direction. Any one who chooses to
visit that school will be astonished that so
much has been done in the limited time at
diSposal--two hours a week.
The school in question is the Broadway
Grammar. OF which Miss Jean Parker, most
energetic and highly practical educationist, is
principal. There are fifteen classes, with
from fifty to sixty rupils in each. None of
the teachers has had any special training In
art, and of course the Education Depart
ment Is too economical to sanction the en-
ployment of art masters. Pupils and teach
ers arc left to themselves. and on the volun-
hQi AN
materials in charcoal, paper. pigments and
brushes. The two hours per week allotted
to drawing are apportioned variously. the
periods being shorter for the younger chill
dren and longer for the seniors. some If
whom are 16 years of age. Two or three

How to Wash Trousers.
From the Boston Gazette

Anybody can wash trousers, either
white or colored, said tailor the other
day to one of his customers. "The process
is perfectly simple if certain plain directions
are carefully followed. First, wash them
thoroughly in warm soapsuds, onlY rubbing
the soap on very had spots when we'll
washed rinse in cold water twice, taking
care that no soap is left in the goods.
Then hang out to dry in the shade, never
in the sun. Let the water drip of, but
do not wiring them. They should be hung
by the waist and the moisture that collects
at the end Of each leg pressed off from time
to time with towel, When nearly dry
but still damp, they should be turned on
the wrong side and ironed dry; and finally
turned on tie right side and creased If
these directions are followed there viii be
no material shrinkage, and the wooden viii
be as soft and bright-looking as ever

'Mother of Mosesl' gasped Juan
ers made another rush.

''Knife him r
The robbers made another rush.
"Ah ah y yelled Pedro. "Where are
you, juan This hog of an American has
me by the throat, and have lost my
knife.
aHe is ademon p groaned Juan. "He
is pounding my head against the wall !!
A volley of yells followed and then a
chorus of groans. Through it all | heard
an ominous dull thud At length silence
prevailed, and knew that all was over.
My last match was gone, but to my great
delight it was nearly morning. With the
first rays of daylight | peered through
the hole in the floor 1t was a CHASTITY
sight that met my gaze. The two Mexi-
cans lay on the floor quite dead. Their
heads had been smashed to jelly against
the walls and their throats bore dark blue
marks
Sitting in the corner was the monkey.
He was bleeding profusely and was evi-
IDENTITY seriously hurt. At first | thought
would spare him. He saved my life and
| was grateful. But when | fixed the lad
der and descended the untamable beast
prepared for a spring, and there was such
evident malice in his eyes that | aimed at
his eye and fired. One shot did the work.
He rolled over dead.
1t was no place for me after such an ad-
venture, and at once went in search of
my mustang. To my great JOY he was all
right, and was soon in the saddle and on
my way TO Aspinwall.
Depositing Jackson 5 money in the bank
when arrived, Immediately boarded the
steamer. | knew that it would not be
prudent to speak of the two Mexicans, and
I had suspicion that statement of the
part the monkey had borne in the tragedy
would be regarded by the authorities as
cock -and-bu story, So | wisely kept my
mouth shut until | was again among
friends.
OF course, have never wasted any re-
gret on Pedro and Juan, but | still hold
my horrible friend, the monkey, in great
esteem

Bananas Instead of Meat.

South Americans say baked bananas are
an excellent substitute for meat. They
travel, fish and hunt solely upon banana
diet. For those weary of meat, OF unable
to eat it during warm weather nearly all
or so would gladly do without it, it would
be well to try the baked banana. 1t is
easily procured, being far cheaper than
meat and requiring no work to prepare It
for the table Each end should be cut off,
the jackets being left on, after the fruit is
washed. From 20 to 90 IN inutes are need,
ed for baking. They are placed upon the
table in their jackets, and one served to
each person instead of his usual piece of
roast or fowl. They should be then split
lengthwise and buttered; the butter greatly
improves the favor.

AN OLD MANS DREAM.
BY OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES.

oh for one hour of youthful joy
Give back my twentieth spring.
I'd rather laugh bright-haired boy
Than reign gray haired king
of with the wrinkled spoils of age!
Away with learning's crown
Tear out life's wisdom written page,
And dash Its trophies down.
One moment let my life-blood stream
From boyhood's fount of flame!
Give me one giddy. reeling dream
OF life all love and fame
My listening angel heard the prayer.
And calmly smiling said.
IF but touch thy silvered hair
Thy hasty wish had sped"
But is there nothing in thy track
To bid thee fondly stay,
While the swift seasons hurry back
To find the wished for day?"
All, truest soul of womankind
Without thee, what were life
One bliss cannot leave behind
I'll take-my-precious-w
The angel took a sapphire pen
And wrote in rainbow dew;
1.-The man would be boy again,
And be husband toor'
''And is there nothing yet unsaid
Before the change appears?
Remember, all their gifts have fed
With those dissolying years"
Why, yes; for memory would recall
My fond paternal joys;
could not bear to leave them all,
I'll y-girl-and-boys
The smiling angel dropped his pen,
why, this will never do;
The man would be boy again,
And be father, tooI'
And so Iaughed-my laughter woke
The household with its noise
And wrote my dream, when morning broke
To please the gray haired boys.
