SCIENTIFIC EDUCATION.

If the farmer needs educating, so does the merchant. Usually the merchant can modernize his methods more readily than can the farmer. Therefore, neglect to do so is less excusable.
 Lack of net profits does not necessarily argue that selling prices are too low. Skill and dis cretion in buying as we'll as effi' ciency in conducting a business make the lowest prices possible.

"cuLTURE" PEARLS BY FARMING

The British commercial attache at Yokohama reports that considerable export business is done with Europe and America in Japanese "culture" pearls, which, although in appear ance and nature the same as the nat ural oyster pearl, are obtained from oysters by a special process at the Mikimoto pearl culture farm in the Bay of Ago, a small bay inside the Gulf of Ise. The Couture" pearl has to be cut off from the shell, whereas the natural pearl is found free in the oyster; consequently in the case of the former one part of the pearl is inferior in appearance and this accounts for the large differ ence in value between natural and culture" pearls.

HELPING THE TEACHER

HELPING THE TEACHER
 O. popular applause What heart of man
 IS proof againstthy sweet, seductive
 Icharms "
 The above lines were called to mind by reading an article from the editor of the Leslieite in com. mendation of the school now be- Ing carried on in the town. Les. lie has the distinction of having school with nine teachers, all ladies. No man allowed in the work. Evidently the teachers are striving to do their very best, and why should they not, when those who know speak of them as does the editor?
 We should be very proud of our superintendent, Miss Irene Jones. She thoroughly under. stands her work and gives her full time and thought to her work, sparing no pains whatever to make the school a success. there is thorough organization of the teachers this year, which means everything to any school. Each teacher knows just what is expected of her and is always at her post.
 The dicipline is very fine in deed. There is not that spirit of resentment and impudence to ward the teacher, on the part of the pupil, that has been seen in our school here. The pupils seem rather to enjoy such dici- pline and good organization.
 There is another thing to be proud of, and that is the very few tardies and absences as compar- ed to last year. Each pupil is un- der the direct supervision of a teacher from the time he comes on the school ground until his dismissal. A proof of thorough organization.
 There are so many more things we could mention f which we should fell proud, but even these few things mentioned will give you better idea of our work and prove to you that Leslie should be extremely proud of her superintendent and her school. "
 There are hours in which work is transtigured- in which it does not appear drudgery, but a mis- sion; in which every duty is at tive. All work then becomes devine calling; and we see that men are not only called to be apostles, but also called to be car penters, called to be merchants, soldiers, sailors, called to be ar lists, inventors; and that one can sweep room for the sake of God and be happy in doing it. Until our work is thus transhgured, and we see religion in it, it must be often a burden and drudg- cry. James Freeman Clarke

BY HARRY w. DENNIE.

The present troubles in China, al
most identical with those of a year
ago last winter in q way, especially in
the vicinity of Shanghai, remind me
strongly of an incident in my own
checkered career in the Paris of the
East that is the name, and right
ly given, to that most naughty of all
the Oriental cities.
Shanghai is the place where the
church people have Y. NJ. c. A. for
the dear 'chinks," but none for the
young or old white men. and. believe
me, that is certainly one city where
it is needed. 1t is the only city in
the world not under the American flag
where there is a q. S. postoffice and
district court. The native city" has
a bagatelle of a million or so-that's
as close as anyone ever knows about
Chinese population-and the foreign
concessions contain about 10000,
which includes about a thousand
Americans.
FIRST AMERICAN DAILY.
Two years ago this summer the first
American daily, the China Press, was
started there. ] mean the first Amer
! lean paper in all China. And it was
a live wire" too, at least, for the
Orient. Ran a pink sporting page,
and all that Junk" to use a newspaper
idiom. Well, l struck the place from
Manila a year ago last October, just
before the revolution was at it's height
and after being there a couple of
weeks, obtained some extra work on
| the Press.
The river was full of grim men-of-
war representing a dozen nations, as
1t probably is now, for no one knew
just what might happen, and they
don't know now, by the same token.
The foreign concessions were not dis
turbed in any respect, though the ar
senal at Kiang-nan, three miles above
the city, was taken by the rebels" as
the present ruling force was at first
known, then retaken by the govern
ment" troops, and again taken by the
rebels-all in about four hours one
morning. Which meant some sharp
fighting, by the way. Just about that
day was when | began with the Press.
A few days afterward the city passed
into the hands of the rebels, or ''re-
publicans," as they were afterwards
known, and a new mayor was elected.
