FOUNDATION FOR SOLID WALK.

having been placed on these, two strips
of board are arranged at either side,
nailed together, as can be seen, and
over the whole sufficient gravel is shov-
eled to "round up" the path. In this
way the outer edge of the walk is
kept straight and true and the center
free from grass, the horizontal board at
the bottom excluding much which
would otherwise grow in under the up
right board. Provided coal-tar could
be mixed with the top layer of gravel,
it would cause it to harden down and
become like pavement, and once hard
ened the smell of the tar would al
most entirely disappear.-Fred 0. Sib-
ley, in Farm and Fireside.

Admiral Dewey is coming home on
Ghe first-rate protected cruiser Olym-
pia. He will take several months to
make the trip, because it is trip
for recreation, for health and for
pleasure rather than hurry-up

to four months of leisure; and the
American people would probably vote
him perfect leisure for the remain

Speaking of the "frst-rate protected
cruiser" reminds us that, outside OF
men OF the navy, probably few people
understand what are meant by the
terms "battleship," "armored crus-
'er." protected cruiser" and "gun YES
sell" or "gunboat," as used in describ-
ing types and classes of naval vessels.
They are not strictly limited in their
scope of significance. Generally speak
fng the term "battleship" is applied to
a type or class of vessels which are
protected by as heavy armor and armed
with as heavy guns as they can carry
on given displacement and at the
same time leave sufficient fotation to
enable them to carry machinery pow
.erful enough to drive them at fair
speed, usually about Is knots per hour,
with a good supply of coal and stores.
The "armored cruiser" is vessel also
protected by armor and having its guns
mo1uted in turrets or shields The ps-
sehtial difference between battleships
and armored cruisers is that in the
latter the armor is much thinner and
The guns smaller and lighter, and the
ship itself is much more highly pow

Froebel and Dickens. it il claimed,
are the best interpreters Of Christ's
Ideals of childhood. The philosophy Of
Froebel and the stories of Dickens are
in perfect harmony. The two great re-
formers protested vigorously against
the interference of intermeddling adults
with the full development Of the indi-
viduality Of h e.child. They recognized
the divinity in each child SO fully that
they objected to all stamping and
molding' processes by which its self
hood was dwarfed or warped. Other ed
ucators and reformers had considered
the problems of human evolution from
the standpoint of the adult%sand had
asked. What a we do to fit the child
for it's work. Froebel and Dickens
asked, "How can we help the child to
grow by it's W self activity" They
were the great apostles Of childhood.
They began the struggle for the free
dom Of childhood from the restrictive
interference Of %adulthood. "a.
Dickens is commonly regarded merely
as an educational critic. This is a mar
row and unfair view. He was a great

the civilized world against those who
childhood inhumanly, and the
hatred of adult tyranny which he awak-
ened developed a loving sympathy for
children. But he could not have SO
exposed the wrong in education
having a definite conception OF
right. He was the greatest destruc-
tive educational critic. but he was also
most advanced, positive, constructive
educator. There is no great ideal Of the
education which is not revealed
BY Dickens in his novels or his miscel-
|aneous writings.
