The Civic Value of the Teacher.

Since the days of Aristotle and his
predecessor, Plato, there has, I think,
been no great ethical or political writer
who has ignored what l may perhaps
call the civic value of education. Soc
rates himself (if indeed the "Theages"
is good authority, in a passage which
is possibly familiar to you as it is quot
ed by Roger Aschamin "The Scholemas-
ter" enunciates the opinion that "noone
goeth about a more godlie purpose than
he that is mindful of the good bringing
up both Of hys owne and other mems chill
dren." "What greater or better serv-
ice" says Cicero, 'can we render to the
state than by teaching and educating the
young:"
st. Chrysostom, setting the seal Of
Christian authority to the judgment Of
the refined pagan world, exclaims,
''There is no greater art than this Of
education, for what is equal to the pow
er of disciplining the character and
molding the understand of a youth?"-

Icame to Edinburgh in 1861 and entered

realization that as a rule the drawing in

Such has been the rage for violets this
season that the wholesale dealers have
hardly been able to supply the retailers,
who have paid as high as 81. rs a hundred
for them through Lent and have paid
since at times a penny apiece. Just be-
fore Easter one florist sold 5000 punches
in a single day. 1t seems to me there is
a suggestion in these facts for some re-
fined, capable woman, who would like to
add to her income. Ask any gardener,
and he will tell you violets are easily
raised; that the forcing of them in frames
through the winter is not at all difficult.
and if one can carry the same direct to
the retailer during the busy season a big
profit is assured. What one can do an
other may attempt, and it is certain that
this season a certain clerk living in the
suburbs brought into the city every
morning freshly picked punches Of VIC
lets which greatly increased his income.

The Hidden Life of a Man.

The young mar who made an unhappy
marriage and was divorced was for years
a mystery to his creditors, because he
did not pay his debts, though he worked
hard day and night. His reputation in
that time suffered terribly, and he lost
caste with many people who had former
ly admired him. When the woman from
whom he had been divorced died some
time later from an excruciatingly pain
full disease, he began to pay his debts.
There are exceedingly few people who
know that all the money which he could
earn he gave to make her life less mis-
erable.-New York Tribune.

A Definition Of sonnambuIism.

In the earlier days it was the common
~ accepted idea that the somnambulist
was possessed. Anything and every
thing that could not be understood or
explained was of the supernatural. To
see an individual apparently asleep and
utterly oblivious to the greater number
Of surrounding objects and yet SO keen
ly awake to others as to be able to per-
form the most intricate actions without
the aid of the senses was so greatly at
variance with the common experience
of mankind as to call up feelings of as
constituent and awe, not alone to the
minds of the vulgar or laymen, but to
those accustomed to scientific investiga-
ton. Modern science has al least dis
PEELED this idea Of the supernatural,
though it has not yet been able to fur
nish a rational theory which will ac-
count for all Of the manifestations of the
affection. 1t has done much, however,
toward calculating the functions of diff
ferent parts of the nervous system and
in that way prepared the mind for a
fuller understanding.
Thus, in 1916, came o definition Of
somnambulism as "a condition in which
certain senses and faculties are sup
pressed or rendered thoroughly impas-
sive, while others prevail in most un-
wonted exaltation, in which an individ-
ual, though asleep, feels and acts most
energetically, holding an anomalous
species Of communication with the ex-
ternal world, awake to objects of atten-
ton and most profoundly torpid to
things at the time Indifferent, a condi-
ton respecting which most commonly
the patient on awakening retains no rec
objection, but on any relapse into which
a train Of thought and feeling related to
and associated with the antecedent par
oxysm will very often develop."-St.
Louis Globe-Democrat.
