GIQdneSS Comes

\NIith better understanding of the
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efforts-pleasante efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge that so many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrupof Figs, prompt
" removes That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness, without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. It's therefore
all important, in order to get its bene'
fetal effects, to note when you pur.
chase, that you have the genuine article,
which is manufactured by the California
Fig Syrup Co. only, ana sold by all rep.
utable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, then Taxa
tives or other remedies are not needed.
If afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most slSillful
physicians, but if in need of laxative,
then one should have the best, and with
the well-informed everywhere, Syrup OF
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.

Lead Pencils.

Very often we hear complaints re
garding the use of lead pencils in prim-
airy classes. The children are con
stantly losing them, and much time Is
wasted in discovering who are without
and distributing to them. This is the
case only when the children are allow
ed to have charge Of their own pencils.
A better plan is to have them collected
at the end Of the day and given gu in
the morning before nine O'Clock. OF
course, the pencil should be marked, SO
that every child receives his own. A
good method Of marking consists in
pasting securely toward the end of the
pencil a small piece of paper on which
the name may be written. A special set
Of pencils should be kept for the draw
ing lesson. Once a week the points
should be examined and sharpened
where necessary. If there are no pupils
in the room old enough to do this, two
or three boys from one of the higher
classes will be delighted to attend to it.

The Teacher Taught.

Sir Edwin Arnold, In the volume Of
autobiography which ne has just pub
lished. tells the unique story Of how,
as master OF the Birmingham grammar
school, he was caued by one Of the
boys.
The class was engaged on Cicero.
Some disordedr occurred near the mas
ter's chair, and Selling the cane he
"a a nasty GU upon the too tempt
Ing back Of one youth, who seemed to
DC the offender" ''If you please, sir"
said Il boy, sGuirmins, II did moth
Ing. 1t was Scudmore that kicked me
IN the stomach underneath the desk"
The statement was true. ScudmOre
had demanded from his neighbor, quite
illegitlmately, the explanation Of an
obscure passage, and not being attend
ed to had taken this much too emphatic
means OF enforcing attention. Having
called the class up, Arnold said to the
doubly wronged boy, who vas still rub
bling the place: 1T is l who am most to
blame for having dealt you an unde-
served blow. Take that cane and give
1t back to me as hard as you got it,"
mo, SIR the lad answered, II can't do
that" The whole schoolroom was now
listening, master and all. Arnold in
sisted: ZONES, you must obey me, and
IT you disobey l am sorry to say l shall
make you write out that page Of Cicero
three times, staying to do it,"
Whether 1t was desperation at this
dreadful alternative or the sparkling
eyes Of his class fellows evidently
longing to have the good luck them
selves Of clicking a master that sud
denly inspired Jones, l know not. What
/ do know is that he reached forth his
hand, took the cane, and dealt me no
sham stroke, but the severest and most
telling cut over my shoulder. I had no
idea that the ridiculous instrument
could sting as 1t did-like a scorpion.

managed to thank Jones for his oblig.
Ing compliance and then said to him:

your knee and throw it out Of the win.
dow. Never will w, have anything to
do with such methods here"
Sir Edwin Arnold adds that corpora
punishment is. in his view, a cowardly
and clumsy eXpedient, and that 'he
who can not teach without the stick
had better get some other business"

A curious story is told of the name
in which the R~othschilds aided a ia.
nous composer. The latter was far
fro. rich, and his principal income was
derived from a snuffboX. And this is
the way Of it: The snffbox was given
to the composer by Baron James De
Rothschild as a token of esteem. The
impecunious man Of music sold 1t TWEEN
ty-four hours later for ESQ to the same
jeweler from whom 1t had been bought.
This became known to Rothschild, who
gave 1t again to the musician in the fol-

to the jewelers.. The traffic continued
till the death of the banker, and longer
still. for his sons kept up the tradition
to the great satisfaction Of the COM

Legend OF the Strawberry.

Did you ever, being hungry, try to
satisfy your appetite with strawber-
ries alone. unaccompanied by sugar,
cream or any of the usual adjuncts. II
SO, you discovered that it WIS impossi.
BILE, for there is no nourishment in the

The Germans explain this by a pious
legend which we will give in substance:
A little child had strayed OF into the
fields. He came upon a place where
natures floor was enameled with
bright. scarlet berries.
He sat down on the ground and be-
gan eating greedily.
The berries were large and Juicy and
sweet. The child was eating thus when
the Virgin Mary called to him.
He ate on and would not stop to
make answer. The virgin called out
to him again and again, but the greedy
child Toasted en- and answered never
a word. .
Then the virgin emerged from her
hiding place and confronted him.
What are you doing" she asked.
Eating he answered CURLY.
"What are you eating?"
Nothing" he answered, to make the
story short.
80 let it be then" replied the irate
virgin. Strawberries shall h%enceforth
be as nothing to him who seeks to sat.
!sfy the cravings of his stomach.
That is why you may eat and eat, and
strawberries will never satisfy your
hunger. Through the greed of a child
the luscious strawberry was cursed
