Occult Superiority of English Schools.

Occult Superiority of English Schools.
Among the things which no American is
supposed to understand is the constitution
and government of an English public
school. Probably nothing short of being
educated at a public school will ever ex-
plain that mysterious substitution of pub
lie spirit for magisterial discipline which
is the essence Of the English system, and
even by those who have been SO educated it
is a thing rather to be felt than described.
1t depends, among other things, upon
hitting the golden mean with regard to
numbers. The perfect school will be
neither too large nor too small. At the
present moment there is no single room in
Elton which will contain the whole school,
and even now the unit to be considered ;s
the house and not the school. Indeed, will,
regard to the majority of English schools,
the question which an anxious parent now
asks is not whether the school is a good
one, but whether the house which is to re-
ceive his son bears a good or a bad reputa-
tion, nor do the school authorities always
recognize their responsibility to see that
the houses are good. Mall Gazette.

Effect of chloroform on Cinnamon.

It takes a much larger dose of chloro-
form to an@sthetize the Chinaman; he
passes under its influence more slowly and
rarely shows the excitement often charac-
teristic of the initial stage of anaesthesia.
Still more rarely does he suffer from sick
ness on his return to consciousness. This
greater apathy of nature helps to recovery

THE BLUE AND THE GRAY.

Very peacefully they rest
Who in life by Peace unblest,
Caught the war cry fierce and shrill.
Felt the Battles shock and thrill,
Heard the dreadful lannon's roar
Death behind and death before
Fighting on the sea and land,
Foot to foot and hand to hand!
Very peacefully they rest
North and south and east and west
While the heaven descending dew
Falls alike on Gray and Blue,
While the cheering light of day
Shines on Blue and shines on Gray;
Weary march and battle sore
Past for them forevernore!
Very peacefully they rest
And the babes whose cheeks they pressed
In a last goodby have stood
Ger their graves in proud manhood,
And in holy wedlock true
Plighted hearts of Gray and Blue
In the light Of hearthstone fires
Tell the deeds Of soldier sires!
