The idea of a covered place where

an excellent one. Almost any sort Of
shed will serve, but 1t is really nearly
as cheap to make an upper story under
the one roof. where straw may be
stored for bedding. and even hay may
be placed. The shed proper should be
high enough to permit ready driving

 Serenity k one of the most delight- fai and 0ne of the most beautiful at i.ibuta of character; and it's corol- larNs the conservation of energy, is one of the best elements Of wisdom. Many are the teachers who destroy the of- fects Of their own labor by intem- perance in word and deed, and few in- deed are the fortunate ones who use only so many words as they can use appropriately and effectively. Who- eyer allows q little incident 10 disturb his equanimity, can not expect to domi- nate he multiplicity of Incidents which altogether make Up his work. Absolute self mastery is the foremost requisite for senool-mastery, and it must be so complete that the teacher will never allow anything to sWelve him from the straight path of duty that leads toward the fulfillment of bis mission.
 3. The teacher must be master of ahe object of his efforts.
 Napoleon at the battle of Austerlitz won his marvellous victory over the three emperors because he knew them and their armies and their strong and weak points, They thought him an enigma, were fearful, and lost: he read them and their plans as an open book, Was zaHe anI won.
 Every teacher commits grjevoUs errors because of ignorance Of the s.a#.auts. We know what 1t means to 1earn for "tfe touch of vanished aal Inc sound of voice that is still taat we m1aaf have opportunity to ase .ae kindness We did not use The spirit of this feeling is ever with as. and there is never day when We can not put it into practice. Every child has distinct indiVidual- ity. net training and environment and the teacher can not know enough of these things in fitting the school system to the various children. Even new insight obtained by learning that some inscrutable boys father is a drunkard, or that an unresponsive girl has an unworthy mother. How far short of a crime is teacher, who in ignorance of the details, accuses a child of acting like one without sense, when that childs parents are in the asylum for the insane? This has been done.
 Michael Angelo spent much of his time in the quarries that he might know the margle from which he was to produce his peerless results. How much more then should the teacher study in the quarry of life the plastic material out of which he is to mold real men and women, in comparison with which even the work of the master sculptors is but as feeble imi- tation,
 1. The teacher must be master of methods.
 The ideal workman is careful in the choice of his tools and is familiar with the peculiar characteristics of each. The ideal teacher, having studied his subject in relation to his purpose, utilizes the best possible, method for the accomplishment of that purpose. That this may be possible, the teach

Benton and Barton.

In the Thirty Years In the United
States Senate" by Thomas Hart Ben.
ton, Missouri's famous United States
senator, there is scant mention of Ben.
toms colleague from Missouri, David
Barton. The only place in which his
name occurs is where Senator Benton
gives the roll call Of the senate, and
Barton's name of course is therein
contained. Benton undertook to pun.
ish Barton by ignoring him and thus
relegate the first United States sena.
tor from Missouri to oblivion. Barton
had brought about Benton's election to
the senate. Barton was first named by
the legislature, and there was a long
contention as to the second senator
ship. Finally Barton's friendship for
Benton brought about Benton's elec.
ton. Later the two quarreled over the
appointment Of an Indian agent in the
far west and drifted further and fur
ther apart. Finally the relations be.
tween the two senators became such
that they scarcely spoke to one an
other when they met.-Kansas City

Three Queer rhinqs.

The curious things which occur in
the world on given day would no
doubt if collected excite the wonder Of
the most incredulous. Yet in a single
newspaper there was recently found
an account of woman who was
guilty Of so Infamous proceeding as
going to sleep at shop while the as
sistant was in the act Of showing her
some dress stuffs, accompanying the
exhibition With the usual eloquence of
these Individuals
The second related the acuteness of
two tramps who conceived the idea Of
going to fancy dress ball in their
ordinary attire. AS may be magined,
they devoted the best part of their
time to a serious inroad on the re-
sources of the supper room, much to
the amusen ent Of the whole party,
who naturally thought they were
guests who had been invited to the
entertainment and who, having made
themselves up with exceptional skill
for their assumed parts, were carrying
out the idea Of the characters they
represented for the purpose Of the jest.
The third story was that of an alb
sentminded young woman who was
playing with pair of scissors and
proceeded to trim off her eyebrows
quite unconscious Of what she was
doing.-Pearson's Weekly.

bands taste in musical matters Among
other things she wanted to know what
operas the musician liked best to play.
