ANCIENT HISTORY.

We are pleased to recognize the
fact that more attention is given to
general history and general litera-
ture in our schools and colleges
than ever before. This is a healthy
growth because demanded both by
the age in which we live. and the
faculties of the human mind. This
is an age of books. History furn-
ishes the material out of which
books are made. If it is an epic po-
EN- as the Had or Gneid or play
of Shakespeare or Sophocles; or
any literary or scientific work, his
tory furnishes the warp and wool
of which they are woven.
For brevity in this article we can
only speak of the value of ancient
history. five glance atlas means
of intellectual development we find
it holds a very exalted sphere. II
may be used not merely to play up
on the memory but upon every fac
ulty of the mind. Late years, we
have laughed too much about mem
orizing, because il was abused, but
we must not forget that it is the
memory that furnishes all the va
ried concepts that can ever play on
any or all of the other faculties.
As we furnish material for the
memory we must remember here
must be used all the laws of asso-
citation, and where is such a rich
field as ia found in history! We
find that all the facts we gather
from the cradle to the grave are
never called back singly, but they
come in clusters. A single stanza
of Holmes zone Hoss Shay" when
read by fertile mind must neces-
sarily call up six historical events
On every page of ancient history
YOU find a wide field for your pow
ers of reflection, and Judgment No
works of fiction can furnish such a
healthy play for the imagination ne
a single page from ancient Rome or
ancient Athens. As you paint with
your imagination old Egypt with
her vast chain of cities extending
from the mouth of the Nile up that
once mysterious river for more than
seven hundred miles, cities as large
as New York or Chicago and some
of them with institutions OF learn
ing as renowned as Oxford and
Cambridge, England, are today
where such MINDS as Plato and
Aristotle from Greece gathered to
spend from three to ten years IN
completing their education, what
a sublime picture yop may create
upon your mental canvas. What
