STUDYING THE BOYS BUMPS.

 The youth of this generation ought to be much better man than his father if all the suggestions for start ing him right in life could be carried out In the first place there is the school physician who looks after his physical health with a sOlicitude who'll Iy absent from his fathers school eX- periences. If he is restless or inatten- tive or plays truant original sin is not considered responsible, as it was in the old days. but he is placed in the hands of the surgeon, who trepans his skull or performs some other operation and the bad" boy is transformed into a model of propriety. Co-incident with a revival of the science of phrenology, which fell into disrepute for a time, comes a renewal of the proposition that ones bent in life can be determin- ed by a study of the bumps on his cranium. Some educators now favor the idea of subjecting the schoolbOy to such an examination and directing his education toward the vocation for which he is shown to have a natural pre-disposition. The day is certainly coming when the traditional "black sheep" will die out in, the American family.
