Chinese children are endowed with
strange Christian names. Their girls.
for instance, are not called Mabel.
Jenny or Matilda. but Cloudy Moon;
Celestial Happiness, Spring Peach or
Casket of Perfumes. Their boys get
less attractive names, being made for
work and wisdom rather than pleas
ure and dancing. Thus we find little
two-year-old Practical Industry; three
year-old, Ancestral knowledge; four

Pear Of Premature Burial.

The fear Of premature burial, which
prompted the late Lord Burton to d.
rect by his will that his heart should
be removed from his body, has caused
many well known men and women to
order surgical operation to be per
formed upon their bodies. Harriet
Martineau left her doctor FLO to am
putate her head. and Lady Burton d.
rected that her heart should be pierced
with a needle. The late Edmund
Yates left instructions that his jugular
vein should be severed, with a provi-
sion that fee Of 20 guineas should be
paid for the purpose. Literary persons
appear to have been particularly
afraid of premature burial. Bishop
Berkeley, Lord Lytton, Hans Ander-
sen and Wilkie Collins all took meas
ures to protect themselves from it.

PROF. R. G. WYCHE.

Wo entertainments were given on
Tuesday, at the Travis street audito-
rum, by Prof. r. G. Wyche, president
of the National Story Tellers League.
A deeply attentive audience, a large
number of whom were children, enjoyed
his excellent selection of stories, Uncle
Remus' being the declared favorite of
the children. Then, there were bible
stories and Morse stories, each with its
under current of truth, that fixed itself
in the heart. Story, telling takes us
long way back. It opens the golden
gates of memory to the stories told at
the mothers knee, to the folk lore sto-
ries of the old 'sblack nanny" to the
fairy stories of childhood. We wan
dered far away from the value of these
in the intellectual and moral teaching
of the child, when theorists in education
argued against them, and advocated
realism in teaching The pendulum
swung too far, and it has now swung
back, and the ethical value of the story
is again factor in the education of the
child.
Prof. Wyche was on the programme
of the State Teachers convention at
Alexandria, where he aroused deep in
terest on the subject. From there was
invited to our city by Prof Byrd.
