FAITHFUL TO THE LAST.
A Royal Guzzer's Magnificent Thirst
Unsatisfied.

In other lands there are drinks far
beyond OURS in strength and strangeness.
There is the Russian vodki for instance.
A gill of it poured down q Carthagenian
mummy will set that long dead person
to fighting all his Pnnic battles over
again. In the forceful language of the
West, 1.-TWO drinks of 1t will make a
man go home and steal his own pants. -
The West Indian gets from the cocoa
nut clear pure water, toddy and arrack
which is a splitting brandy. OF
their ioddy Boyle save, "It looks like
skim milk and smells like 500 slaves in
a pen."
The Marquesans have a seductive
drink called aroo. A number of young
boys sitting in a circle chew fresh cocoa
nut, and when it is sufficiently masti-
Gated expectorate it into a bowl that is
the common receptacle. Fresh water is
poured upon this delectable mixture
and it is allowed TO ferment. The South
Sea islanders prepare the ava root in the
same way. Paul du Chaillu once found
p wonderful drunkard in the person of
the king of Olenga YombI. When he
was an infant his father would take him
to the top of a small tree and force him
to drink palm wine. until he came to
prefer it to his mothers milk,
1t was the ingenious parents ambi-
ton 10 make him the champion boozer
of equatorial Africa, and he succeeded.
The king OF Olenga Yombi in Du
ChaiIlu's time had been solidly drunk
for Is years, and when last heard from
was calling loudly for another gourdful.

A Fine School.

st. Mary's academy for ladies, located
in this city and under the direction of
the Sisters, is one of the best educational
institutions on the coast. The building
is of brick, large and we'll ventilated.
Besides the regular studies, especial eff
fort is made to instil into the minds of
the pupils desire to form their hearts
to virtue, and to fit them to be true and
noble women. Gratuitous lessons are
given in all kinds of plain and fancy
needle word, knitting, embroidery, etc.
Pupils will receive the same watchful
care that would be given them by con-
sclentious parents. 1t is in fact an ideal
shcool and pleasant home. Those who
have girls to send to school should write
to St. Mary's academy for terms. If.

Sick stomach means sick man (or
woman).
Why not be well?
Sick stomach comes from poor food,
poor nourishment; means poor health,
poor comfort. Shaker Digestive Cordial
means health and we'll stomach.
If we could examine our stomach we
would understand why it is that so little
will put it out of order.
But, unless we are doctors, we never
see our stomach. We don't feel it. We
would feel it less if we took Shaker
Digestive Cordial.
Shaker Digestive Cordial makes your
stomach digest all the nourishing food
you eat, relieves all the symptoms of in
digestion, acts as a tonic and soon
makes you feel we'll and strong again.
The more you take, the less you feel
of your stomach.

INTERESTING PAPER

SOME OF THE MINOR DIFFICULTIES
OF SCHOOL WORK AND HOW

matters indeed. Yet, in their |
far reaching effect, are not less
demoralizing factors in the |
educational fabric, which we
are day after day weaving into a
complete or an imperfect whole,
than are some of the so-called
major difficulties already dis
cussed at previous meetings.
As the opening lines indicate,
it seems an uncertain task to
decide which are the minor and
which are the greater difficult
ties. For arguments sake, |
shall enumerate the following
named annOyances, as generat-
ing about as much serious dis
order, or any of the smaller ills
Of the school world:
Purposeless questions on the
part of the pupils, inattention
to class work, tendency to COM
municate too frequently, (either
with or without teachers per-
mission), petulancy, disposition
to loll, rather than maintain
erect position at seats or in
class.
Some other difficulties to
overcome are strewing paper
over floors, and other evidences
Of untidiness, killing time by
too many erasures at board
during test or regular recitation,
where both time and the nature
Of the work demand rapidity of
thought and action. Marring
furniture, defacing walls and
last but not least, evincing no
well-defned love of school.
| wish | might enter into de
tail in this discussion of these
sub-topics, but recognizing the
value of the discussions that
are to follow, | shall treat them
as a synthetic whole.
The teacher must ever he
able to fill the dual role of
teacher and leader and 50 mar
| shall his own inherent forces as
will best enable him to meet
and overcome these obstacles
while yet they are in an incipi-
ent or inoculative stage of de
velopment.
As eternal vigilance" is the
price one pays for freedom, so,
too, eternal vigilance in looking
after and correcting abuses in
the school room, Is the price
of every we'll regulated school.
Many of the difficulties en-
counterPd in our works are
| tracoble to Il careless teacher,
but many more are the result of
injudicious home training. Con-
sequently we have the inatten-
tive boy or girl, the untidy pu-
pill, with the careless air and
mien who has never yet been
taught TO recognize the barriers
tfat hedge about the privileges
ST lool accords.
We must meet all these with
the gentle persistent effort that
characterizes the real teacher.
| We must continue requesting
pupils to pick up papers, re-
place erasers if out of regular
order, keep text books neatly
filed until, sometimes, forbear-
ance ceases" to be the shining
virtue we once deemed it.
Some successful teachers have
quite obVIated these dlSagreable
features of school life rather
by example than by precept,
for the untidy teacher will al
ways have an untidy school
room, and the maxim, like
begets like" holds good here as
it does in the physical world.
