look for splendid results as the in,ne.

published work. "The Nature OF Man.
Professor MetchinkoT says that If n

Should this serum be discovered II

There must be some reason why so
many children break the bounds OF
school ana home ana wander into the
ranks OF truants. What are the pub.
lie schools doing to counteract this
tendency In the growing children? II
Is unnecessary to describe In detail the
organization ana methods of instruc-
tion In our public schools. Enough is
known to assure us that, on the whole,
they are doing splendid work. The
public school should be the pride OF
every American citizen. 1t is to be
feared, however, that too much stress
IL being put upon literary instruction
the three RS, IL you willard not
enough upon the training of eye and
hand for future usefulness. A thor
ough elementary education is absO-
lutely essential; but systematic in
structlOn in manual training should
also be given to that large number of
boys and girls compelled to leave
school ut an early age to work In the
shops ana factories. There can be no
doubt that many boy loses interest
In school because he does not see In
the studies pursued any direct appli-
cation to the practical hand work
which he. sooner or later. must take
up. Much truancy may result from
such lack of interest. Where manual
training has been tried it has proved
emlnently successful in reclaiming
boys who would have otherwise been
truants. Simple odwOrking, iron
twisting, or forge work would interest
many Il wayward boy. Domestic sci
ence would appeal more to the girls.
1t is to be hoped that manual train
Ing and domestic science will gradual
ly be introduced as working features
into every public and private school.

ENGLISH AND AMERICAN ORA
TORY.

The men who enter Parliament and
the men whom you find on platforms
have for the most part received the best
education that England can supply.
They are, therefore, naturally disposed
toward a fairly high standard Of
oratory, a stately and dignified, at any
rate Also, they come to close quarters |
with their subject. Their speeches are
packed full Of meat. They excel in
concrete precise work. and are not afraid
of dry details. They rarely generaiize,
and one may say they are never flOrid
or bOmbastic. They have strong turn
for exposition. and like to hammer
things out. They are naturally didactic.
All Englnshmen are. If they are not
preaching themselves, they like to listen
to sOmt one who is. 1t is a habit not
without its unfortunate side. 1t leads
Englishmen at times to. address an
audience as though they were pro-
fessors lecturing class. One detect
in some Of them a note of pomposity or
condescension that Americans would
not stand for a moment any more
IMAM FHSIlSnn1on NDulu Sldnu d

species They have not the tleXiblity
Of French orators. and are nothing like
so we'll versed in the mechanics of their
craft as Americans. The latter feel the
! pulse Of their audience more exactly,
are more quickly sensitive, and, being
! in absolute sympathy with those III
/ front Of them, have freshness and
ease and colOquial responsiveness that
! Englishnen rarely master. Their touch
too is lighter and more deft. On the
other hand, English speakers are more
restrained and possibly more thought
full; they are much more intent on rea-
son and argument than on defamation.
But as they mostly have the national
habit of spelling sound ideas by prosy
and pointless way Of putting them, this
does not count so heavily in their favor
as it should. / have sat under scores Of
orators in both countries, and my gene
