Fene1on,s Advice to Girls.

We have made the following selec-
tons from the booklet, Fragments
from Fenelon Concerning Education"
with an introduction by Charles Dud-
ley Warner, who writes: The present
volume of selections is taken from
Fenelon's first work, Traite de L'edu
cation des Files, and one of his most
famous. The time is opportune foc
such clear and wholesome counsel on
the education of young girls. The
problems that we have now in education
are more intensified than they were in
Fenelon's time, but the reader will be
struck with the modern tone of this
volume and it's applicability to our
situation. The translation has been
made with fidelity and the selections
joined into an essay in excellent taste. ="
Archbishop Fenelon, it is hardly
necessary to say, was enc of the most
celebrated prelates in the intellectual
and ecclesiastical history Of France.
He writes
1t certainly needs more genius to
practice economy and govern a family
wisely-small republic that is-than to
practice the little niceties of social
intercourse, or talk about the fashions.
l would have young girls note the
simplicity and grace of the statues of
hair tied simply behind their long,
floating draperies are both pleasing
and majestic.
Without doubt it shows a better
spirit to be willing to seem unpublished
rather than to be too particular about
unimportant things. Such business, if
not depressed in women is more
dangerous to conversation than TO
anything else.
Act in regard to cleanliness as to
economy. Never allow anything to be
dirty: train girls to notice the slight
est disorder in the house and never
allow anything to be out of place. This
rule does not seem very important, yet
if kept would show great results.
Educated women, occupied with seri-
Gus affairs, have ordinarily moderate
curiosity: that which they already
know gives them contempt for mat
ters not worth knowing: they see the
uselessness and absurdity of most
things which narrow minded people are
eager to investigate.
A girl might be allowed to attempt
something which she, through mex
perience, would surely fail TO accom-
plish. so that she could avoid similar
errors ia the future; at the same time
encourage her by confessing like
plumbers on your OWN pdFt, III lHdl
way inspiring confidence, without
which education is but tireless for
mality.
Nothing is to be more feared than
vanity in girls. They are born with a
strong desire TO please. The roads
which lead men TO authority and glory
being closed to them, they seek "a
compensate themselves by charms of
mind and body: hence their sweet and
suggestive speech, their desire for

THE GUNPowDER PLOT.
Religious Services in Commemoration
Abolished bY Victoria.

1t was the late Queen Victoria who,
by means of a proclamation or, rather,
CT a royal warrant, issued shortly be
fore the death of the prince consort,
abolished the special religious services
which until then had been prescribed
by the crown for the solemn celebration
of the anniversary Of the gunpoWder
plot, which fell on Friday. Nov. II; of
1.-THE death on the scaffold of King
Charles on Jan. 80; and of the resto-
ration of King Charles ii on May %
Up to the time that the queen used
her authority as sovereign and as su-
preme head of the Church of England
to abolish these services. they were OBJ
ligatory on the anniversaries in ques-
ton in all cathedrals, churches and
chapels of the established church, the
responsible divine exposing himself to
severe pains and penalties in the shape
of fine. suspension and even imprison-
ment in the event of any neglect to
observe these days i'll a religious fash
ion.
The services. which may still be
found in m W old English prayer
books print prior to 1860, were
couched in the most extraordinary lam
guage, calling down divine wrath upon
al those who had participated in the
and the entire national legislature into
the air, on the occasion of his opening
parliament in state, by means of the
gunpowder with which the vaults be-
meath the house of lords were found
to be filed and similar curses upon
Oliver Cromwell and all those who had
taken part in the deposition and in the
consignment to the scaffold of King
Charles 1, while the most extravaganza
expressions of gratitude to Providence
were employed to thank the Creator for
restoring to the throne that monarch
namely, Charles II-who remains on
record as the most profiigate monarch
who ever occupied the English throne.
1t was parliament and convocation,
which, by votes of an overwhelming
majority, requested the queen to abol-
ish these services as anachronismS, and
So strong was the pressure brought to
bear upon her that, acting in accord
ance with the advice of her extremely
sensible censort. she yielded, though
with reluctance. For she was passion
ately devoted to the memory of her
Stuart ancestors and far more proud Of
her descent from them than of her
membership OF he royal house of Han
over. This cult for the Stuarts grew
stronger in her old age, and l cannot
help thinking that, had she been re-
ouested by the parliament and convo-
cation to do away with these religious
services in the closing years of her
reign, she would have refused on the
ground that it would be an affront to
the memory Of the Stuarts.

In Making an Apology.

When one is about TO make an apol-
ogy it is not necessary to make heavy
work of it, Start right in quickly and
say what you wish to say gracefully.
Avoid being too profuse, and endeavor
to find an opportune time. For exam
pie one may say: II wish to apologize
to you Miss Brown, for speaking so
abruptly yesterday. A little reflection
made me. see 1 had no right to be so
thoughtless. I hope you will overlook
the matter The person receiving
the apology should acknowledge. it
with some little tactful remark that
will show both good feeling and for
giveness. An apology to be effective
must come straight from the heart
and have the true ring of sincerity.
The person who refuses to accept an
apology must be very disagreeable and
ill-bred and show none of the milk
of human kindness"

their passionate love Of adornment.
Endeavor to make girls learn that
the honour and praise given to GOOD

more desirable than that drawn out by

you may say, is much more dangerous
to those who possess it than to those

fascinates the soul; one is often more
foolishIy fond of ones self than the

WORK OF ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.

Gossiping tongues that have been
spreading scandal have sent two sisters
of one family to the Flatbush asylum
for the insane, New York, and another
sister TO her bed with nervous pros
tration-ali within two days. Now that
the health of the three sisters has been
shattered, the people who have been
doing the talking are ready to admit
there never was any basis for their
gossip.
The gossip of the neighbors weighed
so heavily upon the minds of the three
sisters that they gave way under the
strain. Anothed sad result is that the
business on which the sisters depended
for a livelihood is now in other hands
and their work of twelve years is lost.

so. and manly men they became. Each
was a success in his chosen line.
But 1 know that the day came when
those fine men met together and while
they toyed with the money in their
pocket to cast lots as 1t were to see
which would keep "aunty," for of
course some of us must look after her."
In later years a hunted look came on
"auntie's" face in place of the radiant
look of mother she had worn during the
years of the performing of her task of
love. They were kind to her in per-
functory duty manner.
For herself that woman would have
done better If she had let her boys go
to an institution, or had put them to
work as little boys while she saved a
sum to make her independent in her
latter years. She would then have
been an honored guest in any of the
three homes. Each would have clam
ored for her. for she would have been
able to pay her way. Her investment
would have brought her returns.
She was not working for herself,
but for her boys"
And the world said they. were fine
men.
How narrow is the life into which
has not entered the care of the young
sweet tasks petrifies the heart, If
they have not entered your life fate has
been unkind to you. No home picture
is perfect without both.

you are motherless. why borrow one,
for somebody's child is motherless, and
