Gradually "that has been changed. Today James Isaac is taught to spell by ear and to read by psychology. They have found that the history we used to study was all one sided, like an argument with your wife; that the maps in the geography were phony; that the arithmetics were written by madmen, who thought two and two made four when, as everybody knows two and two make five, Did you love your Grandpa who fought in the Civil War? You did? Ha, ha! The joke's on you. Your Grandpa was a monkey. "My Grandpop was not a monkey," says Jimmy, hurling the black board eraser at the teacher. "Lowbrow!" says the teacher, "You're expelled for being decadent and otherwise out of date." \ Every man or woman, who has a fad wants to see it made a study in the public schools; and it's. been one fad after another till now the bricklayers have-come-atong with their steadying influence, and education hereafter will be riveted to the level where the re- knew it belonged.

A long time ago in this land of doughnuts and thought, the young men didn't feel the urge to imitate anybody. There they stood on their own number nine feet, and take them or leaye them for what they were worth. - Then some bulgy browed savant got up and pointed out the benefits of selecting the concrete expression of an ingrowing ideal and utilizing it as a model for manhood. The trouble with the plan is its suc- cess devolves upon the ready and cor- rect decision in the choice of a model; and it's a lamentable fact that before a youth emerges from the age of aston- ishment he is a notoriously poor pick- er. If Edgerton feels that he tant be bappy without a model, why not choose the Man in the Overalls--the chap who keeps the chimneys smok- ing and the ice-cream cones pointed; who sticks the sticks in the Jollypops, and sees that the church spires re- main headed in the right direction.

He has a dinner pail in one hand and with the other holds aloft a pay envelope. 7 "Look," he cries, as his wife, Lydia Pinkham, her dear old face seamed with years of patient suffering, rushes down the walk to meet him. "Look! Two dollars and sixty-nine cents a month raise! Now we can buy Grand- ma alt the Unlucky Strike cigarettes she craves!

"You ses, Lyd, it's what I've always maintained. Knowledge is power!" This is the soft of nobleman that Cornelius McGillicooley, the brick- layer, will teach the lads to emulate.
