We do not teach book keeping with
dry text books because all they con-
tain is unlike real business. All the
transactions are unreal, fictitious and
wholly imaginary. The text boz k
student does not make a record of
any real transaction; he gets no
practice Mt doing the real work that
is done in business.
BY our system Of actual business
practice we can give a student ten
times more actual business know
ledge in three monthsthan any text
book school can give in ten months.

The Wilmington daily Republican. (Wilmington, Del.) 1890-1902, 1894-12-03

Nearly all of the ancient nations called
lightning by names signifying "cloud
fire, " and the major portion of them en-
ployed some symbol to represent the flash
of the "forked fury" dnrting from tho
thunderclouds Tho early Chaldeans
symbolizod it with trident, and tho
Babylonians, learned in mystic lore, en-
ployed n human hand for the same pur-
pose. Tho bas-reliofs of the towers Of
Nimrud and Malthia, which arc the work
of the later and more refined Assyrian art
lists, show the trident doubled or trans.
formed into what is known as q "trilld
fascicle." This triumph of tho classic art
secured for the ancient Mesopotamian sym
Dol tho advantage over all other rcprcsen-
thtions of the thunderbolt. The Greeks
represented the "sGorm fire. with the fcath-
ers of n bird of prey. Later on, when they
had begun to incorporate tho Asiatic form
OF the symbol with their own, they put it
in tho claws of an eagle and made it the
scepter Of Ieus. Gaul received tho symbol
from Italy, but soon altered 1t to tho IA
miliar two headed hammer SO common on
Gallo-Roman monuments. The Same SYM
Dol is seon on amulets found in Germany,
Scandinavia, England and France.-St.

And sacrifice to love ct thy dear feet.
Hove myself because thou art my lover.
My name seems dear since uttered by thy

The more give the more remains for giving.
The more receive, tho more remains to win.
All, only in eternites Of living
Will life DO long enough TO lovo theo ini
Ella Wheeler Wilcox.
