Educate Ch,Idren 70 H,eb ideals,

We are too ready to impart instruc-
ton to children from low moods and on
low plane, because we do not ourselves
habitually dwell in the latitude of the
uplands. Motives of policy, of vanity,
of seeming instead Of being right, enter
into our own lives and, alasi poison the
lives of the little ones at the fountain.
A grand life, brave example, splen-
did instance of fortitude, of self abnega-
ton, of courage against odds is never in
vain. II is an object lesson that flames
out from the sky as the planet amid the
host of lesser stars. Whether it be an
arctic or an African explorer, the leader
of forlorn hope. the missionary living
among the island lepers, or the army
nurse, leaving home and luxury to min
lister to the wounded and soothe the
dying, the noble ideal is uplifted before
the eyes of those who are yet in the in
itial stages, and whose characters are
not yet in the mold of destiny.
This thought of the lofty ideal gives
the. chief.value of our annual Decoration
Day, giving us pause amid the pomp and
ease of peace, that we may think not of
the pageantry of war, but of its suffer
ings, its fever and thirst, its rigors of
cold and furnace heats, its weary
marches, fierce battles and the patriot
ism which alone condones its bitter woe
and the mourning that follows in its
track.-Harper's Bazaar.

A COSMOPOLITAN SCHOOL.


A Queer Mixture of Children in One Of
New York's Big School Buildings.
Until about year ago the principal
OF ward school No. 20, New York, did
not realize what queer lot of pupils he
had, although he had sometimes laughed
over the strange collection Of names
upon the rolls. A year ago he took
census and carefully traced out the
exact part of the earth from which tho
parents of each of his pupils had come.
He found that there were in his school
no less than twenty-seven different ma
tionalities, speaking about twenty-five
langur ges other than English and its
dialects. He found that of these sixteen
were in the primary department alone.
SO not long afterward he arranged a
novel feature to one of the school enter
tainments. At certain place in the
programme each child arose, holding
in his or her hands two flags. One was
the American flag, the other the flag of
the nation from which the father had
come. The visitors to the school were
astonished. They recognized half a
dozen flags well known as the banners
of European nations-Italian, German,
Spanish, French, Swiss and the like.
Then they saw nearly dozen others,
recognizable from their shapes and colors
and designs as the banners of barbaric
or semibarbaric countries, known to us
In vague way as heather.
When these children, none being I'M
der five years of age, first come to this
school they are foreigners to the very
core. They speak the language Of their
fathers, and perhaps have never even
heard the sonnd Of an English word.
They are of the country from which
their parents came both in customs and
ideas. Their clothing alone bears the
stamp Of America, and that so out of ac-
cord with their faces and expressions
that they seem i'll at ease, and even more
poorly clad than they really are. They
enter the primary department. And
here it may be said that, although the
youngest are five years old, the ages of
many extend upward toward eighteen
and twenty years.
Il is the business of Miss Rose O'Neill
and her seven assistants to teach these
children the English language, and then
to make American children out Of them.
Go into the school at the beginning OF
the school year, and you will think the
task hopeless, impossible. Come back
at the end of six months, and il you
close your eyes and listen to the reading
exercises you will not be able to dis
tinguish Chinese child or Arab child or
Tunisian child from the few pure blood
ed Americans who form the curiosities
of the school. Then you will wonder
how the miracle has been performed

How the wonda Dance.

The serska reja is q pantomimic dance.
Each couple has its own turn Of leading.
The cavalier places his partner in front
of him, facing her. and while the band
keeps playing and the company singing
one of those peculiarly stirring Wendish
dance tunes he sets about adjuring her
to grant him his desire and dance with
him. She stands stock still, her arms
hanging down flop by her side. The
cavalier capers about, shouts, strikes
his hands against his thighs, kneels,
touches his heart-with the more dra-
matte force the better. At length the
lady gives way, and IN token Of consent
raises her hand.
Briskly do the two spin around now
for the space of eight bars, after which
for eight more they perform something
like cross between chassez croisez
and Jig, and so on for little while,
after which the whole company joins in
the same performance. As finish the
cavalier islands" the band and his part
ner some liquor, and merry round
dance concludes his turn of leading to
the accompaniment Of tune and song.
