LIFE'S ASPIRATION.
Arts Proper Place in the Education OF a
People.

The intellectual aspiration of peo-
PIE cannot in truth be held to be en-
bodied in its literature, whether il be
the prose or poetry OF imagination or
the recorded vestigatiOn of its philos-
ophers or its scientists, says Il writer in
Scribner's Magazine. No matter how
widespread may be the diffusion of
knowledge. no matter how multiplied
may be the means of instruction. so
@hnt the printed book may be in the
hands of every citizen, there yet re-
mains the fundamental need Of the in
tuitive absorption of an Intelligence
through the eyes.
Nor is this by any means confined to
him who. having opportunities of edu-
cation placed before him. neglccts to
avail himself of his privileges; the
student lifts his study-dimmed eyes
from the printed page and receives
through another sense a vision which
uplifts him in another. but no less
greater, manner above the momentary
and material accidents of life.
The world has long recognized this
truth, and throughout political vicissi-
tudes, through social aud economic
changes, it had held it to be a part of
civilized life, without which it would
retrograde toward the save who, once
his stomach filled, sleeps. France,
where many things are managed bet
ter" has always managed this particu-
larly well.
AT least from the Gascon king who,
practical spirit, not only wished every
Frenchman to have his poule au pot,
but who made his Paris. his France.

The Palmetto of tn. South.

The graceful palmetto, that grows so
profusely in the lower tier OF the south
ern states, has recently become a factor
inv the industries of the south, for its
wood is hard enough to carve and its
fiber is strong enough to make excellent
cordage anu a useful substitute for
spongcs Ii jacksonville u factory has
becn started for The purpose Of making
brushes and hrooms Of the fiber, and
elsewhere sink brushes are being made
Of the wood, half of whose thickness is
being converted into bristling points.
The young leaves of the tree make
salad that the people are beginning to
appreciate, and the taste of il is ikeucd
to that of chestnutS. Bears knew about
it long before the people did, and it is Il
favorite article OF diet among them. the
black bears climbing the trees and
browsing on the fresh shoots as eagerly
as they browse on watcrmeions.

Men OF university training are almost
without exception capable only Of in
