Hints on Piano PLAYING.

The position of the PLAYER at the piano
and the position of his hand on the
piano are Of vital in portancc The e.
bow should always lie on level with
the keyboard, and the fingers CT the
hand, especially the second finger or
finger near the thumb, should lie grace
fully curved.
When first studying Il piece, one
should never use the pedal, and before
the piece is placed on the music desk
the student should deciphe the rhythm,
for very often supposed difficulties in
technic are are merely rhythm misun-
derstood. No matter how we'll known,
the piece to be studied should always
be played slowly and gone over in the
most painstaking fashion. No other
piece should be studied until the first
has been thoroughly mastered. The in
discriminate running over of several
pieces during practicipg hours is most
unfortunate for the students who do
this invariably blunder through some
half dozen pieces and play all abomina-
bly,, says a writer in Etude.

Toronto Days.

Thousands of Leaguers have been for
months talking Of and planning for the
great conference which occurs this
week at Toronto.
This will probably be the largest
gathering of Methodists ever held. The
place is we'll selected. Probably Toronto
is the most Christian city in the world.
Canadian hospitality is proverbial. The
choice spirits from the three great bod
les Of Methodism Oh the continent will
be there. Three places Of meeting have
been chosen and simultaneous meetings
will be held. No one place could hold
the whole body, and if it could no
speaker could be heard to profit in such
an immense assembly. Those who are
privileged to attend will gain new ideas
and inspiration for the work, and on
their return should be able to impart
some of the power to those who staid at
home.
Much CT the spirit of these great
gatherings is not transferable, however.
It comes only to those who participate
in the scenes and join in the songs 1t
lives in memory. It can be recalled, but
never conveyed to another. For this
reason it is wise to attend when posi-
BILE these conferences, where the best of
the League comes to the front in help
fulness.

There is almost as wide diversity in

the conclusion arrived at is that for

is nothing more picturesque and at the

than the sailor dress. Fortunately there

Getting and Giving.

The difference between the worldly
and the Christian spirit lies right here:
One desires to get all it can. 1t is ever
saying to others, "Give me- The spirit
Of Christ prompts one to the opposite. II
is ever seeking to impart its blessings
and benefits to Others It is the outgoing
of desire. It never asks, "How much can
I get?" but How little can do with and
how much can I help another?" 1t de-
lights not in accumulation, but in dis
tribution. 1t scatters and divides it's
treasures, and SO multiplies it's pleasures
as it awakens in others lives blessings
like its own.
Our young people learn here the
greater blessing of giving than of re-
ceiving. This is the handspring of all
missionary effort, hospital and relief
work. 1t gives zest to all efforts to re-
form and convert men.

SAILOR DRESS. DRESS WITH GUIMPE.
in particularly pretty combination Of
color. The skirt Of white drill was
made in the regulation kits and trim
med with six rows of scarlet braid a
quarter of an inch wide, placed, as the
sketch indicates, in sets of two, with an
interval Of I y inches of material be-
tween each set. Over this came loose
white garibaldi or jumper, also in the
drill. This must be cut loose enough to
we'll overhang the waist, and to fit pro-
perly should be finished with an inch
wide hem, into which an elastic is run
to keep it compactly together at the
waist.
This jumper is finished with q sailor
collar, also in white, with two rows of
the narrow braid outlining it. This
shows a neat little vest of fine scarlet
serge, decorated with gold anchor en-
broidered upon the center of it in thick
purse silk. The knotted scarf coming
from under the collar should be in scar
let surab, and as q finishing touch a
wide scarf of the silk might be drawn
round the waist and knotted at the left
side with two long ends hanging nearly
to the skirt hem. The sleeves of the Carl
baldi are of the usual small bishop
shape, put III with only a trif1ing
amount of fullness at the top and fas-
tened with buttoned wristband
The quantity of material required to
make this model would be, in the big
gest size, 81 to z yards Of drill and az
dozen yards of braid, which can be
bought cheapest in the piece of SO yards.
Three yards of the surah would be need
ed to make the sash and handkerchief,
and quarter Of a yard Of scarlet serge
would form the vest.
For cool mornings and evenings a |
jacket of some sort is required. To wear
over the frock just described perhaps |
there is nothing more fitting than a fine |
ribbed serge coat, cut, of course, double |
breasted and finished with smart little |
gilt or pearl buttons. This will be found |
easy to take Oh and off and will form a |
quite warm enough covering
For small misses up to 10 years frocks
with guimpes are also much patronized.
In wash dresses the guimpes are often
OF white washing material. This makes
a very serviceable dress, since it per-
mits it of being constantly freshened.

Philadelphia, Pa, Sept. 20. Harry
A. Lands of the firm of Mayer, Landis
d Co., rroprietors of an extensive file
factory at Twentieth street and Alle-
gheny avenue, was arrested this morn
ing and held in So, 600 bail for further
herring on the charge Of having set fire
to the factory. The property was to
have been sold by the sheriff to-day,
but at O'Clock this morning the fac
tory was totally destroyed by fire.
There was an insurance OF 800, 900 on
the property, and the firm places that
amount as the loss caused by the fire.
An attempt to blow up the building
was made on Saturday night, Tho
watchman found on the second floor
two cans of naptha, to which fuse
was attached. The fuse was partially
burned, but the light had gone
out before it reached the naptha,
because of knot in the fuse. Last
night Mr.. Landis informed the watch
man employed by the firm that he
could go home, aa he (Landis) would
watch the building. The wRtohman
retired, but remained in the neighbor-
hood, and shortly before 2 O'Clock he
and policeman saw Landis leave the
building by way of rear door and
few minutes later hamss burst from the
windows. The building, with its con-
tents, was completely destroyed.
Landis was shortly afterwards placed
under arrest at his residence. At the
Bearing he had very little to say. OK
cspt to deny having had anything to do
with the fire. He said the attempt TO
blow up the mill with naptha had wor.
ried him, and, fearing another attempt
would be made, he concluded to watch
the building himself, and, therefore,
permitted the watchman to 90 home.
lie stated that shortly before the fire
was discovered he saw a man run out
the back door, and he pursued him
several blockH. On his return the
building was iu flames. The police say
they have evidence that the greater

Last Years Work Reviewed by the Teacher
of PehhgOgy.

OF PedagOgys
NJ iss Elizabeth j. Lewis teacher Of
pedagogy in the Teachers department
OF the Wollaston School, in her report
TO Superintendent David w. Harlan,
refers to the work of the department
for tho past school year. Twenty one
students finished the course in theory,
eight of whom completed their term of
teaching in tho practice rooms. She
treats Of the study Of psychology, which
IL very beneficial for teachers, as they
have to do mainly with the mind of the
child. "Defective children have been
studied both from test and reference
books and from observations of such
childron in the schools of practice,
which study ha5, in severa instances
resulted in goul to the children. She
writes also Of the study of the history
of education, methods of teaching aud
school management, and of the practice
scnuol and the nlumnm association of
the school Of pedagogy.
Miss Lewis advocates q broad edu-
cation for the tuacher. She thinks a
year might to protitably ahded TO the
High School cblirse for those preparing
10 teach. II should like 10 have the
satisfaction uf knowing, she writes,
pedagogy are able to cope with those
similarly taught elsewhere and he
qualified to take the examinations for
frat grade certificates outside of this
city. In my departmental work have
found those whom have taught are
with few exceptions deficient in
general information, mathematics. writ
ten and oral expression, and even 10
some grammar school branches. They
are perfectly willing to admit this
saying they are just beginning to COM
prebend what they were taught at the
High School, tnat while there they
were 60 crammed they had no time to
think. By this criticism there is meant
no reflection on the teaching done at
the High School further than that the
time given is too short for the compile
tion Of the course and the graduating
marks too low.
{ II tho term of study
wsre heightened and their ability to
teach thus enhanced the supply OF
teachers would. doubtless, still equal
the demand and the fewer but better
qualified number would be no detri
meDt 10 the schools nor to the profess

children, not for the teachers. Further,
