Factor IN Int Growth.

r. p. Ryder. in the May number OF
"Music" published at Chicago, has
the following to say in regard to
music as q factor in intellectual
growth. "The study OF music is equal
to the study otliterature and language,
as a means of intellectual growth,
superior to the study ofmathematics,
and IN no way inferior to the study
OF natural sciences. 1t is moro avail
able and adaptable than the study of
PSYCHOLOGY, because, while calling
forth the intellectual powers, it en-
cages the emotions and assures that
condition necessary to the best de.
velopement of thought. viz. genuine
enjoyment nf the means Ell ployed. 1t
strengthens the memory; calls reason
into lively play; favors habits OF ex-
act thought; inspires the eimagination;
enhances the perceptive faculty; faci.
ltates phys expression: arouses
emotional nature; cultivates the
aesthetic principle; gives breadth OF
mental comprehension. In all these
things, music stands in the front rank
of the sciences, If indeed, it does 10 t
lead them all. Can any science do
more rs q factorm intellectual growth
to develop the many sided nature of
the man intellectual?

Love and Learning,

There is great satisfaction in believ-
Ing that tine educated girl is more af-
fectionate than the uneducated. Start
ing from that proposition, how easily
could we imagine one of our severe
bluestockings, some lady of uncertain
age who teaches the young idea, dis
playing, the opportunity Offering, all
the great affection which had been
throbbing in her bosom during the
years that she had been struggling with
logarithms and methods of teaching.
If affection increases in direct proper
ton with education, surely the young
men who 60 out on moonlight nights
seven decades hence will live in ely
stun.
That presupposes that education will
continue to become more widespread.
In the years to come there may be
classes in emotion, demonstrators of
affection and instructors in the divine
art of making love. Able professors
will tell how and why the passage of
the pons asinorum will raise in each
maiden's breast a longing, yearning
for she knows not what. Then she
will reach the next class, and soon as
she writes Q. E. d. after her first dem
onstration in solid geometry she will
heave sigh, stretch forth her beauCi-
full arms and cry for the sympathetic
soul which signs and figures have
shown her awaits her.
And when, with all the education
and refinement her instructors can give
her, she leaves her alma mater, she
will know more about the proper dis
play of affection and lovemaking as q
fine art than the girls of our day dream
Of In my next incarnation I hope to
be an instructor in a young ladies' SEM
mary. y.-San Francisco News Letter.

Boil the Water.

So much rain has fallen this seas on
that wells are filled with surface
water. Many wells are at present
unfit for use. 1t Is recommended that
water used as beverage should first
be boiled and then allowed to cool.
The boiling process will remove all
all animal matter and leave the water
pure and wholesome to the taste and
obviate any danger ofinjurious effects
which might occur If used without
boiling.

Take notice that South Dakots is
going to be in it this year, with all her
might. First of all she il going to

cast big republican majority, and
do other acts that will reflect credit
upon the good sense OF her people. .---

A gentleman who has returned frorA
Mexico, and who brought with him a
parrot which he purchased in Vera
Cruz, has been very much astonished
at some tricks which that bird has
learned during the few days he has been
In the house. The birds owner, Colo
mel Howard Johnson, occupies a beauti-
full residence in the suburbs, and Jocko
has from the first shown the liveIiest
interest in all his surroundings. It was
very soon found that he could not be
allowed his liberty in Mrs. Johnsons
room, as he at once formed terrible
antipathy to a beautiful panther skin
rug, in which the head is remarkably,
lifelike, and the moment he was re-
leased he would make for the rug and
begin biting savagely at its eyes and
nose. He escaped from his cage one
day and almost demolished the nose of
the rug, and after that he was chained
to his perch. -..
1t happened that for several days in
succession the perch stood by the wall, !
close beside the electric bell. When
Mrs. Johnson touched the button,
Jocko took notes, with his head on
one side and a most 'inquiring air, and
when the servant appeared immediate
ly afterward Jocko gave faint croak
of astonishment After witnessing this
performance several times it was evil
dent that Jocko began to see some con-
nection between the button and the
servant.
He spent great deal of time study
ing the button, running his beak softly
around it, and apparently communing
with himself, his mistress watching him
meanwhile, highly amused at his clever
ness At last, whether accidentally or
otherwise, Jocko discovered the con-
nection and pressed the button. The
next moment servant appeared, and
the little schemer Strengthened up and
said with great gravity, "Jocko's hun
gry." His mistress shouts of laughter
and the servants astonishment did not

rung for what he wanted, and he in
sisted on having it.
The scheme worked well, to Jocko's
manifest delight He rang the bell
again before half an hour, and re-
marked to the servant who answered
the call: 'Well, you are a daisya Jocko
wants waterm 5,. ~,
Colonel johnson is so delighted with
his birds accomplishment that he i'm
vited some friends in to witness it last
night. Jocko was inclined to sulk at
first, but finally frightened up, and was
soon working at the button. When the
servant entered Jocko poised himself
on one foot, swung his body to and fro
in a most affected way, and exclaimed:
''Hello, Tom, is that you? Bring in
another bottle of wine, will youP'
Colonel johnson, be it understood,
is a church member, and his minister
was present, and the colonel insists that
Jocko caught this trick before he came
