During these visits, a day rarely passed
when be did not take nephew with him on
his drive about the farm, or to the village.
This was the pleasant part of the day, for the
favored one, as grandpa always gave the relns
into the lads hands. He gave not only the
reins, but the whip, though never did he sug-
gest whether or not it was to be used
l shall have to own that each of these six
boys coveted the farm. We can hardly wonder
at this, and perhaps we should not blame
them, inasmuch as they had no desire to take
it from grandpa; 1t seemed to them, IN deed

OF course, they were always on their good
behavior, and they rarely came down from
this pedestal, even though the visit extended
through the whole summer vacation. L do
not mean that they never disagreed among
themselves. Even grandpa did not expect
such saint-like goodness as, that; but their
conduct toward both grandpa and grandma
was unexceptionable.
But grandpa kept his eyes "wide open," as
persons looking for an heir are prone to do;
and not many seasons passed before he had
decided in his own mind either upon Harry
who was now thirteen years old, or John, who
was fourteen.

The Brain in Childhood

when subjected to strain of this kind it is
certain to suffer.
We have all of us seen children become men,
tally fatigued from very slight causes, even
when they have been at the same time greatly
interested. How much more, therefore, must
their brains be fired when they have been
forced to concentrate their attention upon
subjects the Importance of which they do not
understand!
"The child" says DR.. Hammond, Should
be taught how to acquire knowledge by the
use of his senses, and there are facts enough
surrounding him to keep him as much en-
gagged as is proper. If he does not begin to
look at books till he is ten years old, he will,
by the time year has elapsed, read better
than the child that has begun to learn his let

The study of the geographical dis
tribution of earthquake centers brings
out some significant facts, but at the
same time it fails to account satisfac-
torily for some phenomena observed.
AS has been remarked. earthquakes are
divisible into two classes, volcanic and
tectonic, according to their causes. 1t
is not always possible however. to de-
clare with confidence to which Of these
classes a particular quake should be
assigned.
One of the significant facts when
ever the question of class arises Is the
situation of the epicenter with respect
to an active or recently extinct vol
cano. Close proximity to a volcano
raises a presumption that the quake
is of volcanic origin. Tectonc quakes
also have certain characteristics which,
though not always exclusively exhibited
by them, are much more common with
