Tillman's View of It.

; ''R. M. L." writing from Washing
ton says: cit is great day in the
history Of Grover Cleveland, for even
Senator Tillman confessed that the
message breathed the truest spirit of
patriotism. This was quite an admis-
sion from the junior Senator from
South Carolina, in view of the fact
that he now has at his apartments in
this city pitchfork. sent to him by
one of his admiring constituents, who
expects him to carry out his threat,
made on tho stump, and use the fork
on some of his political enemies.
Senator Tillman said further that q
serious question is presented by the
President in his message, and while it
appeals to national pride and prestige,
he would hate to see this country go to
war over a small South American coun-
try. Ho says it would be cheaper for
the United States to acquire Venezuela
by purchase than to go to war with
England He added that he hoped
some way will be found to adjust tho
difficulty without bloodshed, for war
with England means Scent cotton and
further depression in South Carolina.

Hints 10 the Teacher.

Your duty to your pupils IS not meas
ured by the size of your salary.
Keep your voice down to the CONVEX
sational key. A quiet voice is music
in the school room.
Seldom repeat a question. Train your
pupils to a habit of close attention, so
that they can understand what you say
the first time you say it.
Give your slow pupils time to think
and speak The highest praise given
by an English inspector to a teacher
was that be allowed his slow boys time
to wriggle out an answer.
Train your pupils to recite In good
English, but do not worry them by in
terruptions, while they are speaking.
Make note Of incorrect or inelegant
expressions and have them corrected
afterwards.
To have the pupil sit erect and look
at the teacher is not always to secure
attention. He may do all this and still
his mind be engaged in something else,
or perhaps not engaged at all. You must
secure the genuine article and not the
bogus, and in order to do this you must
test the attention by proper question
ing. The tactful teacher will find vari-
Gus ways Of applying proper tests.
1t is to be feared that in the teachers
profession there are more hard work
ers than hard thinkers. In these days
when cut-and-dried methods are SO
abundant, and ready made model les
sons can be had for the asking, the
teacher who is so inclined can work
very earnestly and diligently and tire
himself very thoroughly without much
thinking, just as the horse in the tread
mill. Teachers, put brains into your
work - zs4z 'T.--4-

Bench. Ear. and Beard.

The regulations for shaving OBJ
served in the bench and bar probably
came down from Roman times, and
the history of the custom among that
people is a curious one Pliny saws
that boards were universally cultivat-
300 B. c., when Sicilian BARRIERS, who
probably acquired their art from
Greece, first came to Rome, and Scipio
Africanus set the fashion of shaving
every day. Thenceforward it became
so much the vogue in good society
that the term barbarous, outlandish,
was long supposed to mean bearded,
in allusion to the unkempt hair of I'M
civilized nations. Increased accuracy
in etymology has shown the real mean
ing to be akin to balbus, stammering,
in aIIusion to their uncouth speech.
For three centuries BARRIERS had it
all their own way in Roman circles.
Then came the Emperor Hatrian, who,
as Plutarch affirms, grew his beard
to hide some ugly scars, and forthwith
it became the mode. Lawyers and
priests, even more conservative in
their observances than other folks,
continued to shave; hence, it is sup
posed, came the traditional practice
of the English bar, through the law
courts of Italy and France.-Good

Reverencing His Mother.

A Chinaman, be he king or coolie, is
devoted to his father and mother
When either parent dies, custom or
dams that the sons shall resign all
honors and employments to repair to
the ancestral tomb, and mourn there
for a long period.
Our former Minister to China, John
Russell Young, tells in the Review of
Reviews how the Chinese Premier, Ii
Hung Chang, was prevented from
punctiliously observing the custom by
an imperial decree.
The aged mother of the great Chinese
statesman died, and he hurried to eel
citrate the rites at her grave, accom-
panied by his brother, the viceroy at
Wuchang. Every one was expecting
the Premier's resignation, and his en-
forced retirement from all official po-
sitions. His enemies thought hat Ii
had gone finally; his place would be
dlled by another, and his power be-
came a memory.
Suddenly there came a decree from
the throne, commanding Ii to lay
aside mourning, and at the end of
three months resume Office. His broth
er was permitted to remain at the
tomb, and do the tilial reverence. The
decree was without precedent; but the
Emperor was sacred, and his com
mand supreme. Ii Hung Chang re-
turned to Tientsin, his home.

Drew the Line at Style.

A kind-hearted young lady in Rox-
bury, who is always doing good in one
way or another, and is a tireless work
er in the charities, had hat which she
was planning to trim over and make
do for everyday wear this season, when
a woman called at her home and, with
tears streaming from her eyes, told
how Door she was, and what a hard
time she had to get along. The young
lady had nothing else to give her, and
offered to make the hat over for her, if
she would accept it, thinking she her
self might manage to do without it.
The poverty stricken woman took Il,
tried it on her head before a glass, and
then returned it to the young lady
who, by the way, is one of the prettiest
and most tastefully, though not richly,
attired girls at the Highlands, even
though she is largely her own dress
maker-with the remark: mo, miss,
I will not take it, thank you. They are
wearing small crowns this year. Dos

yacht anchored in the harbor of Che
foo he went on board to pay his re-
spects. The Premier looked like q
starving beggar. He wore the coarsest
raiment. His beard and forehead had
not been shaved, and his queue hung
down from a clotted mass of hair.
Lines of sorrow streaked his face, and
his hands were grimy.
The first man in the empire, noted
for his carefulness in raiment and
cleanliness of person, appeared as the
meanest subject that he might, by
privation and penance, do reverence
to his mothers memory, according to
the creed of his ancestors. A few days
later, when Mr. Young met Ii at Tient-
sin, the beggar's mien had vanished

Tea-Houses in China.

The restaurant or tea-house in China
takes the place of the Western club
room. All the current news and gossip
their eating and gambling. One of
their games Of chance, which we have
frequently noticed, seems to consist in
throwing their fingers at each other,
and shouting at the top of their voices.
1t is really a matching of numbers, for
which the Cinnamon make signs on
their fingers up to the mineral ten.
The Chinese of all nations seem to
live in order to eat, and from this race
of epicures developed a nation of ex-
cel1ent cooks. Our fare in China, out
side the Cobb district, was far better
than in Turkey or Persia. A plate Of
sliced meat stewed with vegetables
and served with a piquant sauce, sliced
radishes and onions with vinegar, two
Ioaves of Chinese mono, or steamed
bread, and a pot of tea, would usually
cost US about three and a quarter
cents apiece.
Everything in China is sliced, so that
it can be eaten with the chop-sticks.
These we at length learned to manip-
uIate with sufficient dexterity to pick
up a doves egg-the highest attain
ment in the chop-stick art. The Chi
nese have rather a sour than q sweet
tooth. Sugar is rarely used in any
thing, and never in tea. The STEPPED
tea-fowers, which the higher classes
use, are really more tasty without it.
