All for a Scent,

People brought up on bottles may
know that a man in New York wis
was agent OF certain brand Of Eng
lish ale for many Years, and whose
bottling was preferred to that Of the
brewers, came near running his busi-
ness on one occasion by getting hold
OF lot Of bottles from u tenement dis
trict. Most Of the housewives in the
cheaper nei@hborhoods of the city use
bottles as Il substitute for cans when
they get in a supply of kerosene, and
it is well known that it is a practical
lmpOsslbl,ity to remove from q bottle
the odor OF the oil. McMullen bought
Il supply Of these bottles and filed
them with ale, and in course OF time
they reached his customers. The
consequence may be imagined. They
nearly ruined him. You may scrub
and you may boil the bottle as YOU
will, but the scent Of the oil will hang
round them still.

and so Is the education of her children
for the world progresses in direct ratio.
There were schools OF ancient Rome
and Greece. but they seem to have been
more polite and platonic gatherings Of
young men and maidens-of the Hypatia
order-than institutions OF real learning
for growing race. Instruction for
children was OF the briefest and was
largely oral. With the Hebrews, only
enough Chaldaic was taught 10 enable
young people to decipher a few verses
OF the law: unless. indeed. the boy was

generation after Christ. in the year "a.
when public schools were established in
Palestine. Then the High Priest Joshua
OF Gamaia made education obligatory.
A MODERN DISCOVERY.
But childhood. as we understand t. is
modern discovery. Never before in
Che worlds history has so much thought
been paid 10 children-their schools. their
books, their pictures. and even their toys.
This is well. Happy children are always
the more intelligent. In the school-room
dictatorial. aggressive discipline never yet
enlarged child's brain or improved its
mind.
There was a time back when school
going was really a torture; when the
tyranny OF the old-time schoolmaster was
not so much overdrawn in Wackford
Squsers, and when many a trembling
pupil entered upon his school-llfe some
