There is an unwill- ing, hesitating compliance with requisitions which is little better than downright disobedience. In- deed, it is often more annoying. from the difiiculty of meeting it. Positive and direct refusal to obey orders we know how to deal with: but a half-way obedience, a sort of attempt on the part of the pupil to compromise by meeting one half way. may sometimes seem to lack definiteness. But it really has a point and must be met without hesitation. Let us then impress upon the minds of our pupils that we make no difierence between an act of disobedience and obedience re- luctantly and sullenly rendered. In some cases the latter may be worse. 5thâ€"Never promise what you can- not perform, nor that. which it would be wrong or unreasonable to perform. Very young pupils will readily discover if we err in this particular. My earliest school recollections are of a “ school ma’am ” who threatened to cut off the ears of her pupils if they did not sit still. Child as I was, I thought she meant what she said. and with almost breathless stillness I kept my eye for the entire first day in a fruitless search for the ear short- ening implements. However, alter hearing the threat many times re- peated, and finding my own ears uninjured, I concluded that the teacher was uttering idle threats. and I lost the respect for her that I first had. It was soon ascertained that she said what she did not mean, and then her words fell upon our ears as , the idle wind. Let us then study to verify our words by our acts. and al- so study to have both words and acts consistent and right. 6thâ€"A particular ofience does not necessarily call for the infliction of Specific punishment. ‘ All attendant circumstances should: always be taken into account in de- ciding upon diciplinary measures. A course that would be highly salutary in one case. under one set of circum- stances, would prove far otherwise in another case, and under other circumstances. A certain physician once had as a patient an Englishman. The disease was fever. He allowed the patient to partake frequently of chickan-broth. The sick man was :restored to health:_ and the doctor ‘UDUVUUH v --'v-__ wrote in his notebook, “ chicken- 1 broth is good in case of fever.” His 5 next patient was an Irishman, and . the disease fever. He was allowed : to partake of chicken-broth, and died. The next memorandum in the note- book was “Though chicken-brOth is good for an Englishman in case of fever. it will kill an Irishman.” From this we learn a lesson in discip- line, viz. to study to adapt the mode ‘ of discipline to existing circumstances and peculiarities. and we must never feel that the same means will always produce the same results. fillâ€"Cultivate habits of neatness and courtesy as Helps a Discipline. If we can so inspire a boy with feelings of self-respect, that he will always enter the school room with his person and apparel in a neat andl cleanly condition, we shall' at the Same time create within him a desire to regard the rules of the school. If, in addition to this, we can induce him to regard the rules of propriety and s courtesy in his manner and conversa- tion with others, we may be quite sure all else will be right. A court- eous pupil will, almost as a matter of ’ course, be an obedient and attentive one. generally But. scold- ch more so.

As to the power of gentleness and kindness, let me quote: Mukdale, 12th Oct.. A True Nerve Tonic. Will act, not so much directly upon the nerves as upon the digestive functions and the abundant formation of red, vitalizing blood. Nerves can’t be fed on medicine. They can, however, be restored and strengthen- ed by assimilated food. The marvel- .ous action of FERROZONE arises from its action over the digestive and assimilative processes. When you take Ferrozone the blood is purified. strengthened, and grows rich and red. Then you grow vigorous, heal- thy and beautiful. ready for work, because you have the strength to do it. ho tonic for the brain. blood or nerves compares with Ferrozone. ‘ Price 500.. at Druggists. or Polson 00., Kingston, Ont. “ Woulds‘t thou a wanderer reclaim, A wild and restless spirit tame Check the warm flow of youthful blood.

DEAR SIR.â€"â€"I send you this corn- municacion to warn your readers about an old fakir going through the towns between Guelph and Owen Sound taking orders for all kinds of groceries. and quoting prices much below the local dealers, and on deliv- ery of the goods they are found to be‘ of inferior quality and not at all as, represented. I have seen some of‘ the tea he delivered and must say it- is the worst samplel have seen in1 years. He represents to the people of each town that he is going to make that town his headquarters, and that he is going to buy butter, eggs and apples from the farmers and give them groceries or pay cash in ex- change. He also says he will give . from five to six pounds more granu- lated sugar for a dollar than the grocers. but does not take orders for sugar when he gets his orders for the 1 other groceries. He sends another man around to deliver the goods, and this man tells the people he will be around in a day or two to take orders for the sugar. but that is the last anyone sees of fakir No. ‘2. If necessary, I could give the name of the impostor and the Company in ‘ Toronto which supplies him with his‘ goods. but think this exposure will have the effect of keeping many of your town people from being imposed on should the old fakir make his ap- pearance in Durham. Hoping you will give publicity to this note of warning. I remain Yours reapectfully, GEO. S. HULL. Tea Merchant, 67 Dundas St... . London. Ontario. Sure Cure for Sick Stomach.

One day last week Harold. the youngest son of Postmaster Hanbury, swallowed a pin. He is supposed to have been bending it with his teeth to give it the proper angles to place in position on the seat of a chair. He lost his hold and down it went. We were thinking up some nice , things to say of Harold in an obituary inutiee for this week’s paper when on enquiry we found that he was not in-i clined to share in the general alarm. much less to think of shufiling 03 this mortal coil. It appears he has swallowed pins on other occasions and was not bothered particularly about this one, although he admitted it tickled his throat a little while it lodged there for a time. This re- minds us of the boy’s composition on pins in Which he said “Pins are a very useful article. They save a good many people’s lives.” On being 'aiterwards questioned ”How?” he stated ” By their not swallowing them ” With Harold it is difierent ; he swallows pins and thrives, but Harold is one boy in a thousand.â€" 'Dundslk Herald, A Fakirâ€"Beware ? H o.oro-â€"~---â€"â€" Swallowod 3 Pi 9‘0..- They Are Very Deliberate and The. Have a Simple lethal. The Chickasaw Indians cast their vote difierently from the way the white man does it. They meet the day before the election, and none but Chickasaws by blood is allowed to vote. No white man or intermarried citizens ban the right or snfirage. They go on to themselves and have a powwow. They decide for whom they will vote after considering the matter for twenty-tour honrs. A‘- _‘ .V- 'v- 'â€"'U _ The polling place is quite unlike that 1 of the white man. There is a greati sheet of paper, white, yellow or brown as the case may be, about three feet office, beginning with the candidates for governor and running on down to precinct oflicers. At the top of the sheet are the number ot blank spaces that will be required for the names of the voters. The judges of election sit by and pass on those entitled to vote, and there is a certainty that no illegal votes are cast. - an. W“ vvvâ€" w- v v" The Indian is thoroughly deliberate. He takes his time when it comes to voting. He proceeds to the polling place, looks carefully over the poll sheet, and it he is ready to cast his ballot he calls out his name, and the clerk records it on the sheet. Then the v-vâ€" â€" clerk reads off the names of the can- didates for governor. The voter delib- erates awhile, calls out the name of the candidate for Whom he desires to vote, his vote is recorded, and the names of the candidates for the next office are called out, and so on through HOW THE INDIANS VOTE. the list, till all the offices representeu are voted for. Thus it is that every voter knows exactly how every other voter has cast his ballot, and there are no remarks, no suggestions and no quarrels over diflerences of opinion. The Plymouth Rock. A schoolteacher in one of the charm ing rural suburbs of Philadelphia. where fancy gardening and the rais‘ ing of "Philadelphia fowl” are gen- eral among the residents, recited to the class the story of the landing of the pilgrims, and, as the children had been taking up the work, she requested each scholar to try to draw from the im« agiuatlou a picture of the Plymouth rock. Then it was that the little fellow got up and raised his hand. "Well, Willie, what is it?” asked the teacher. “Please, ma’am, do you want a hen or a rooster drawn?" came the unex- pected rcpl y. Musical Snails. A French naturalist claims that there are few if any animals which have I higher appreciation of music than snails. Place some snails on a pane of glass, he says, and you will find that as they move over it they Will make musical sounds similar to those which a person can produce by wetting his finger and then rubbing it around a glass tumbler, Complete airs, he points out, have been played on tumblers in this way, and he expresses the opinion that quite as good results can be ob- AA“ tamed by gers. The Old Lady and the Incubator. An old lady visiting an exhibition went to see some incubators which were on show and, complaining of the expense of keeping fowls, said that it they were cheaper she would buy an egg hatching machine. After she had asked various questions the gentleman in attendance proceeded to show her. the drawers in which were deposited the eggs in diiferent stages. On these the old lady looked in astonishment. “What!” she exclaimed indignantly. “Do you use eggs?” “Certainly,” was the attendant’s astonished answer. “Well,” said she, “I consider it a per- fect swindle to pick the pockets of honest, hardworking folks by selling them those frauds! Why, anybody can hatch chickens with eggs! I can do it myself !”â€"London Globe. Marvelous Medicine. A patent medicine vender in a coun- try village was dilating to a crowd upon the wonderful efficiency of his iron bitters.
