Methods in Teaching to Read.
BY ARTHUR BoeeEss, cATLIN, ILL.
IN SCHOOL NEWS.

BIZ ARTHUR bor0ESos tAAL1ey ILL,
IN SCHOOL NEWS.
Teaching to read is by no means
confined to what is termed in
schools the reading class" Let
us first consider some methods
that may be used in this class, and
then what may be done outside
this class to cultivate taste for
good reading.
An exercise that is at once very
effective in training the imagina-
ton and interesting for the pupils
is the use of word pictures. / re-
member how infinitely and how
we'll my pupils described the home
of the Jolly Old Pedagogue."
Some thought his house to be one
story, some of two stories, some a
frame house, others one of brick,
and still others one of log. The
boys might locate pig sly near
the house where the girls located
a flower garden; in like manner
when studying the "Song of the
Brook" the boys might think of
the brook as a. fine place to fish,
while the girls most admired the
wild flowers on its banks.
What matter so the imagination
is active and pure? Don't attempt
to make your pupils ideas of how
a thing described would appear to
correspond to any other persons
ideas.
Try to cultivate an acquaintance
with and an admiration for good
authors. In using supplementary
reading the study of the author
should be made as interesting as
possible. Avoid dry biographies,
Use such we'll written sketches as
Sarah X. Bottoms, if possible. If
pupils have not the suitable books
from which to compile sketches
write a suitable sketch yourself
adapting it to the age of your pu-
pills. Glasses using a reader should
read in succession all the selec-
lions from one certain author.
Have pupils write in prose the
thoughts of the poems studied
the reverse of this will very rarely
Iif ever, succeed in a common
school.
All allusions-geographical, his
torical, biographical to naturaI
history, legendary, NEUROLOGICAL
should be studied.
Many pupils have native abil.
ity for drawing. Let them make
pictures of persons and places Of
which they read.
SO much for the reading class
proper. Much can be done in
other classes, particularly in the
geography and history work
When studying Europe tell YOU
pupils enough about "Views Afoot
to create, if possible, desire tc
read it. Connect Robinson Cru
soe's island with Robinson Cru
soe," Hudson river with ''The Cul-
prit Fay" or Legend of Sleepy
Hollow" Paris with "Jean Val
jean," Palestine with 'Ben Hur.
Do the same work in history
The new course of study suggests a
large list. Boys and girls taught
to read wholesome literature with
the spirit and with the understand
ing also" will care little for the alb
surd, extravagant unrealities por-
! trayed in pernicious literature.

A man may be dressed in an elegant

Morgantown man has no excuse for
this. Adam Bower is the agent for

STORY OF A MODERN JONAH.
DIR. Harsha Got 1t From a French
man who Wrote 1t Out of "an
English Paper"
From the New York Sun.


From the New York Sun.
The Rev William Justin Harsha, D. D.,
pastor Of the Second Collegiate Reformed
church in Harlem, preached a sermon on
Moody on Sunday night In the course
of his sermon he said:
"Certain of our daily papers are troubled
because Mr.. Moody believes in the story
of Jonah. Yet 1 may call your attention
to the Investigations of M Courbet, the
eminent French scientist. and of the
Prince of Monaco. They have shown that
the sperm whale is able to swallow ceph-
alopods much larger and much heavier
than man. 1t is also upon record that
ley was swallowed by a whale, and, after
a day and a night, his companions in the
ship Star of the East cut him out and
found him unconscious, but alive. He is
living to-day"
A sun reporter asked DIR. Harsha yes
terday for his authority for the story of
James BARLEY. DR.. Harsha said he found
it in the Literary Digest in a transla-
ton of an article of M. Courbet's in the
Paris Cosmos" of March z. NJ Courbet
says he found the story in an English
newspaper. This is the translation:
I'm 1891 the whaler Star of the East pur-
sued a superb whale observed at some
distance from the ship. The huge Great
ure was harpooned and wounded to death
While 1t was writing in its last agonies
one of the whaleboats was struck by it's
tail and shattered to pieces. The sailors
who were in it were thrown out into the
water. All but two were saved by the
boats. The bodyAof the one was recovered
but the other a man named James Bart
ley, could not be found.
when the monster had ceased to move
and rs death was quite certain, it was
hoisted alongside the ship and the work
of cutting it up began. A day and a
night were devoted to this task When the
stomach was opened what was the sur
prise of the whalemen TO find their lost
eomrade. He was unconscious but alive
They had much trouble in reviving him.
For several days he was delirous, and it
was not until three weeks had elapsed that
he was able to narrate his Impressions
He said he remembered very well when
the whale threw him into the air. Then
he said he was swallowed and found him
self enclosed in a firm. slippery channel
whose contractions forced him continually
downward.s By feeling about he realized
that he had been swallowed by the whale
and was in its stomach. He had much diff ..
hculty in breathing and had a feeling
of insufferable heat. 1t was not long be-
fore he lost consciousness.
The article went on to say that Bart
lett had to be treated in a hospital and
that his skin was found to have been per-
manentiy tanned
NJ. Courbet's article also had an account
of voyage of the Prince Of Monaco on
which he captured a sperm whale with
a cephaolped in it's stomach over 80. feet
long and Weighing over $50 pounds.
M. Courbet has escaped the biographical
dictionaries thus far.
