nrNrs TO rDroAroRs.

Many scientists are now engaged in
the study Of children, and it begins to
look as if they might be able to learn
as much that is valuable from such
study as from the study of cats and
dogs. They have already learned some
thing that is valuable to those who have
the education of children in charge
For instance, experiment has shown
that 364-1, 900 of a second is required for
a child to recognize the letter C, 1851 900
to recognize the letter a, and 1891 900
to recognize the letter t, while the whole
word, cat, is recognized in 1901 900 Of
a second. Hence the Importance, not
alone in time-saving, but as an aid to
the child, of teaching words, not letters,
at the outset. But the words must be
small, as it has been ascertained that
in numbers four is the limit of an ordi-
nary child's comprehension at sight.
These and other little details should 70
ceive attention, says DR.. Krohn, who
has charge of the Illinois State labora-
tory of psychology. Even the size of
the letters in a textbook is important.
child reads by the upper half of the
letters more than by the lower. Too
large q. size is as bad as too
small. The letters should not be more
than one-twelfth of an inch high and
line should not be more than four inch
es long. All these matters affect deveI-
opment. The most prominent influence
OR hindrance, rather-in that line. &C.

When Johnny came marching home
there was great enthusiasm, but not
more than when the Foot Guards came
marching home Saturday evening, But
though Johnny sreception whenhe came
marching home may fairly be compared
with the reception of the Foot Guards
he did not have half as good a time
while he was away as the Foot Guards
did during their absence. A more pleas
ed and satisfied body of men never
came marching home to New Haven.
They found the new South all and
more than it was cracked up to be and
they found southern hospitality so
warm, so considerate and so ample that
they feel that it will take a long time
to discharge the pleasant debt it put
upon them.
When New Haven troop comes into
town with cotton sticking out Of the
muzzles of their guns, "the rebel yell'
coming out of their mouths, and Dixie
coming out of the Instruments of the

changed. Thank God that they have
and that the North and South are so
