Children.

Then why not pursue the study OF
children for yourself? The subjects
are always before you. No books are
needed, no costly drawings, no lee
lures, neither transparencies nor illus
trations. Your specimens are all about
you. They come and go at your bid
ding. They are not to be hunted To-,
along the edge Of a precipice, on the
borders of the wilderness, in the des-
ert, nor by the seashore. They abound
not In the uninhabited or unyIsited
place. but in your very dwelling hous-
es. about the steps Of your doors, In
every street Of every village, in every
green field, and every crowded thor
oughfare. They flourish bravely in
snowstorms, in the dust of the tram
pied highway, where drums are beat
Ing and colors flying, in the roar OF
cities. They love the sounding sea
breeze and the open air. and may
always be found about the wharves
and rejoicing before the windows OF
toy shops.-John Neal.

cannot, on the other haf1, deny that
the Old and New Testaments offer
great scope for fine reading. The task
or the curate at lectern is like the task
OF the eXecutant before the piano.. The
one has great literature before him
the other great music. The audience
waits for his Interpretation. AS a rule,
with many and marked exceptions. the
curate runs through his work In such
a mechanical and uninterested mn
as would empty q concert hall If imi-
tated by his brother artists. He reads
heroic passages as though they were
L parish notices, arguments as cut
and-dritd snippets Of dogmatism, and
shrsWd proverbs as aacred poetry.
