and keep it before the school through
out the quarter that on review day, the
"NNho?" classes will be asked to give
the names of persons about whom the
lessons told The 'Where?' classes
will be asked to come up and point out
upon the school-map the places, etc,
and give some particulars regarding
them. Each of the other classes will
perform its part, as indicated by it's
distinctive title. The "Wherefore?"
class, as distinguished arbitrarily
from the "Why?' class (Which has to
DO with the motives and reasons and
actions shown in the lessons), is eX-
pected to draw conclusions from each
lesson that is, to give the practical
teaching and moral lesson to be gath
cred therefrom-this portion it would
probably be well to assign to the Bible
class.
A variety of other plans for reviews
occur to the writer, which, though
never actually tried, he thinks would
work satisfactorily. He can do no
more, however, in this article than to
give the names he would call them by,
and leave you to guess at what he
means.

ways in which review day can be en-
iovably and proftably spent that

ing dreaded as day of mere drudgery
PRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS.
/. There are two paths open before
all. in one or the other of which al
of us must go.
2. The choice as to which path we
will take lies within our own power.
3. One path leads to ruin, the othel
to everlasting blessedness.
4. Trusting God in the dark leads L
the light.
). Wisdom warns us from the evi
path, and invites us most earnestly in
to the ways of pleasantness and peace
G. The experience of those who hav
tested all ways and all sources of hap
piness shows us the same path.

the number of immigrants to this coun-

Good.
Especially Arranged from Peloubet's Notes
SUBJECE-The Quest After the Highest Good.
GOLDEN TEXr-In ali thy ways acknowledge
Him, and He shall direct thy paths.
The old line:
"Quis, quii, ubi, quibus auxiliis, cur, Quomodo,
quando:
Who: what' whore' with what helps' whyi
how wheIE"
has sometimes been quoted as sum
ming up the topics which are most
necessary by way of introduction to
the sacred books The summary is not
guided by it to some extent. 1t will
be well to ask these questions in refer
ence to the four books of the Bible we
have been studying the last quarter
Especially should we review carefully
| the three books which belong to the
wisdom literature.
The search is made in every way and
from every point of view. We hear
three voices speaking to us as one
truth. in varied forms, as to what is
the highest good.
I. Through the Discipline of Attic
tion-The Book of Job. The historical
foundation, the story of Job, his char
Gcter, losses, his friends, the argument.
The conclusion reached, and how it was
reached.
II. Through the Teachings of Wis
dom-The Book of Proverbs. The
character and composition of the book.
Wisdom, who or what is meant by the
term. The value of wisdom. How OBJ
tanned. Her warnings. Her invita-
tons. Note especially the two oppos-
ing pictm es-intemperance and the
true home.
III. Through the Experience of Life
-Ecclesiastes. The meaning of Eccle-
siastes. The object and plan of the
book. The search. Solomons eXpe-
rience and its lessons. The result OF
the scarch-how and where the CHIEF
good of life may be obtained.
". The Power by which the Best
Life may be Reached-Malachi. The
Saviour comes, purifying away the
evil, and bringing the means of saliva
ton and the conditions by which il
may be attained. He controls Divine
Providence. He is wisdom's own self
He knows all things.

Origin of ssGringo.c

The following explanation of the
origin of the word s.gringo" (which it
is perhaps unnecessary to also explain
is Mexican for foreigner) has at least
the merit of ingenuity. Sundry Eng
lish vessels, it is said, did long time
ago cast anchor off Mazatlan, and
Jack, as is his time-honored custom,
took an early opportunity of going
ashore and getting drunk. Several of
them were parading the streets and
singing, and the song among others
that particularly caught the Mexican
ear was that old friend of most Eng
lishmen commencing Screen grow the
rushes, ohl'' After that, whenever
Jack hove in sight, it was customary
to remark, "Aqui vienen los green
growsr' and Hgreen grow very soon
got to be written and pronounced
ssgringo" and has stuck to the for
eigner ever since. The explanation will
do for want of better. Two Repub-
lies of the City of Mexico.

Later in his classes, and owes it to the
early suggestion of his college friend
that he began to write for publication.
Hawthorne, Cheever and Sargent Prem

Holmes is another great friend of his.
After his college days Mr.. Mcclellan
was associate editor of the Boston Daily
Patriot, subsequently incorporated with
The Advertiser, and for time published
q monthly known as The Pearl. He con-
tributed to Willis Monthly, The New
England and the old Knickerbocker.
Poetry and prose were equally at his
command, though he best loved to en-
balm in verse the scenes and incidents of
the sports afield of which he was so
fond. His little gem, 1.-The Trout Brook"
attracted the attention of the editor of
Blackwood's Magazine, who printed and
commended 1t.

finds what sport he can in those health

of a mile or so does him good. He does
not care for anything not pleasant to the
