Discipline for Children.

In an address delivered by that emil
nent phiIanthropist, Morris Goodhart,
recently, there is a part which will re-
ceive hearty appreciation from those
who believe in the doctrine of love and
not of fear in the education of child
hood.
He has given the matter profound
study and from his official position in
many charities and philanthropies has
been enabled to see the effects of va
rious systems tried upon a large scale.
The conclusion he draws is that the
best good is obtained by the abolition
of all corporal punishment and the en-
piOyment of moral suasion alone in the
development of a child's nature. He
has applied this rule more particularly
to the Hebrew Sheltering Guardian So
ciety, 13Oth street, this city, which is
one of the leading orphan asylums of
the country, and of which he is Presi-
dent.
He says that it is no easy task to in
culcate in the minds of refractory chill
dren either fear of punishment or love
for those in whose care they are placed
Nevertheless, as with a grown person.
so with a child kind word goes much
further in most if not all instances than
the brutalizing effect of blow or a
threat to strike one.

A Culinary PhiloIogist.

Ella Hicks Johnson, one of the new
generation of writer's, has developed a
speciality of general interest to the
etymologist ard philologist and Of spe-
cial interest to all lovers of good living.
1t is the origin of words employed
in the dining room and kitchen. Nearly
every one has a long and honorable
history. and many indicate the changes
which have been brought about in the
process of civilization. The sandwich,
she says, is called for the Earl of Sand
wich Force meat was derived from
farce, the first syllable being the
French word farcie, meaning stuffed or
stuffing; gumbo is the African name
for okra, waffle comes from wafel, an
ancient word meaning honeycomb, or
any spongy substance.
This field is a very wide one. Profess
sor Russell showed many years ago
that the fish known as porgy in New
York and soup in New England was
originally called scuphaug by the In
dams, the thrifty Yankee taking the
first syllable and the slower Knicker-
booker the second, which he made into
a disSyllable. Tomato and potato are
the original Indian names, which have
supplanted those given by the early
English discoveries of the esculents
mentioned. The old English names
were earth-apple and love-apple.
Fritters came from the Italian or
Spanish fritas, meaning fried things
curry is taken from the Tamil kari, or
the Malabar 'kurri," which means a
stone used for grating. Where we en-
ploy a metal crater the Hindus use a
strong sandstone for the same purpose
on this they rub their spices, such as
nutmeg, turmeric, cardamon seeds, Gin
namon, cloves and ginger which are
the chief ingredients of the so-called
curry powder, and which are the main
characteristics of all dishes belonging
to the curried class. Tamale comes
from Mexico and is claimed to be of
Aztec and also of Maya origin Grill
is derived from the old Celtic grid,
which reappears in our familiar term.
grid-iron. Ash cake does not come
from the Southern States. but from an

assembled the throne, being at the date
of accession only , years old: There
have been twenty-five dynaSties in
China, the royal family of this country
being better ascertained than that of
any other which reaches back to an
Gent times. With some few breaks. the
Chinese have had regular succession
of sovereigns since Fuhhi, who, the
Chinese say, reigned from B. c. 2S02
to 2I3f. According to Chinese tradition
Fuhhi was no less a parsonage than
the Noah of the Scriptures, who, after
leaving the ark on Mount Ararat, trav-
eled East and founded the Chinese En-
pire. Chinese history asserts that sew
eral of their early monarchs ruled for
over century each; one reigning over
China for 10 years, another for 102,
another for 100, and so on. 1t is con-
sidered probable by historians that
these figures represent rather dynaSties
than the reigns of individual sover-
eigns. China has had, in almost direct
descent, with no more than two or
three breaks in the history of the royal
family, thirty-three sovereignS, nine
ty-one Emperors, two Tartar rulers,
six Mogul EmperOrs and three EN-
presses.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat

Hohenlinden fight,
And We really fear that CurfeW's going

While not drum is beating and we hear
no funeral note;
And Mary, known to all the girls so very
long ago,

fleece was white as snow"
And Cato will tell Plato that he reasons
very WELL
While Hamlet on the future in soliloquy
will dwell;
And We'll hearken on the hilltops and We'll
listen in the glade
To the wonder and the thunder of the
charging Light Brigadei'
But come, old friends and lead us to the
meadows far away,
For the boys who rang the Curfew once
are getting old and gray,
And Death, the reckless reaper, is thin

But in dreams they drift to Bingen-to

HEARD SOMETHING.
Adolphus Listened to the Sounds of
the Solemn Night.

'Papa!
1t was the voice of the very youthful
Adolphus Hightown in the still hours
of the night.
His father had been struggling with
insomnia for two hours, says the Chi
cage Record" and less than five min
Utes before had conquered, and now he
had the whole fight to begin over again.
What do you want?' he asked, very
sternly.
I hear something" said Adolphus.
You hear something!" exclaimed his
father, Well what if you do?"
It's in the closet"
Il don't care if it is. It's nothing
that will hurt you You go to sleep
now and don't bother me any more
Adolphus lay very quiet for ten min
utes and then the mouse, or whatever
it was, began again. He whispered to
his brother Ned, but Ned was asleep
and didn't even stir in response to a
gouge in the side.
L hear it again. papa" called Adolf
plus.
"What?"
Il hear something in there"
"Adolphus," said the senior High
town, 4 don't want you to disturb me
again.
Then the boy kept still for a quarter
of an hour. His father thought Adolf
plus had at last gone to sleep, and he
himself had just begun to dOze the sec
ond time, when the same anxious voice
came from the next room:
Didn't you hear it then, papa?"
mo, didn't, but you're going to hear
something, young man"
He CROPPED his way into the room, laid
his hands on a small form and spanked
it, and then from the sudden surprised
howl that went up Adolphus knew that
mis- father had got hold of the wrong
boy He had spanked Ned.
Adolphus had hardly time to console
himself with the thought, however, be-
fore the mistake was to some extent
corrected.-Buffalo News.

Alleged Results of the Bicycle.

1t is said that the primary cause of
the recent tailors' strike in New YorI,
lies in the fact that men can buy a
comfortable and really nobby bicycle
suit for matter of 50 or so. which
many of them wear as their business
suit, and thus the boss tailors' profits
fall off and he cannot pay the wages
formerly paid.
In Bridgeport, Conn, it is said the
manager of prominent theater states
that he has had the worst season in
his experience, and he attributes the
falling off in attendance to the bicycle
craze. People save up their money
10 buy wheels and go without theatrical
amusement
Thus goes the world What IS pie
for one fellow is poison for another.

He went forth from the old hcarths tone
Only two years ago

1t would do you good Ia know
Since then wc have not seen him,
And we say, with namclcss pain,
The boy that we knew and loved so
We shall never see again.
One bearing the namo We gave him
Come home to us to-day,
But this is not the dear fellow
We kissed and sent away.
Tall as the man he calls father.
With "a mans look on his face
Il he who takes by the hcarthstonc
The lost boys oldcn place.
We miss the laugh that made music
Wherever the lost boy went
This boy has a smile most winsomc,
His eyes have grave intent;
We know he is thinking and planning
His way in the world OF men.
And We cannot help but love him.
But we long for our boy again.
We are proud OF this manly fellow
Who comes To take his place
Win hints OF the vanishing boyhood
In his earnest thoughtful face;
And yet comes back the longing
For the boy VIC must henccforth miss,
Whom We sent away from the hearths tone
Forever with kiss.-N. j. BU RTON.

Fill a bottle or common water
glass with urine and let it stand
twenty-four hours Il sediment or
settling indicates a diseased COZ
