Hr order of Col. J. Fuller Lyon,
W. A. Templetoo,
Ad|otanL
Yoa can a)way* get fmb oandy from P. L
Oar Graded Hcboal.
One of the mMt frequent crltlclaroa of Grad
ed Hehoola la thai there la no thought for tbe
Individual poptl, but every cere for tbe (rede;
that all paplla of a grade are to advance at
= tbe aame rate when aome pupil ooa id advance
and ought to advance more rapidly.
f TbUi objeetlon haa been overcome In the
Abbeville Graded acbool In a moat aallafee*
lory way. Superintendent K. K. Gilliam
laat year Inlrodncud a plan which abould receive
tbe attention of all graded acbool
author)Ilea. Tbe plan, aa we underaland It,
m la to divide eacb grade Into at leaat two dlvlolooe,
the quluker or better prepared puplla
making ;tbe advanced dlvlelon, while tbe
alower, younger or leaa prepared puplla conatltute
tbe lower Dlvlalon.
* A pupil can be changed from one dlvlalon
*" to another at any time In tbe dlacretlon of
tbeteacber.bat the Haperlotendeot may be
r conaalted In mm* of doubt. Bat a rf?rninjement
of paplls la regularly made at tbe end
of each term of three moolha.
Tbe ability and wllllngnea* of the popll to
do the work la tba aole teat lor Qloeaa for
given Dlvlalon.
The advantage* of tbe plan are many, bat
ooe advantage la dlatlnetly Men when a higher
Division pupil, for one raaaoo or another,
abMnta blmaelf from aobool for a time. Tbe
abMntla return a to acbool to Hod that bla
dlvtalon bai advanced, and that be moat take
pocltloo Id tbe lower dlvlaloo.
Another advantage of tbia ayatam l?, tbat
It furolabM an looentlve to tbe blgbeat and
boat effort of eaeb popll, and each atudent
may are tbe reeait of bla or her effort*.
Aa Ibe advanced dlvtalon progrwaea more
rapidly than tbe aecond, tbe poplla of a given
grade aooo And Ibemielvea lo different
(radea, for aa aoon aa tbe work of a given
grada la completed aooceMfally tbe Advanotd
dlvtalon proceed* with the work of tba next
D blgber grada, without awaiting tbe nazt
year. Under the operation of this plan, we
understand tbat there are Sva boya la the
fifth grade room who next year wi|l enter tbe
Mventb rrada. Thl* hn??*ir. doe* not
bmu that they bavt omitted the work of U>?
itilbgndt. They have eomplttod www
tally all tbe work of Uw foarib, flflb and
alxth gradee Id i wo yean loatead or three,
under two leaohon Instead of three. Id Ilka
maooeraboat twelve paplle will paaa at the
begloolnc of tbe oext eeaeloo from the olzth
grade room Into the eighth grade, all the
work of tbe eeveatb grade bavlog been aeeompllahed.
Only a email percentage of the puplla gain a
year a Oder the operation ol the plan, ae only
a few are able to do mora than a lair allowance
for a yaar*a work. The ooaree of etady
ia laid oat for the average child and not for
the nnoenal one; bat a plan la adopted whan
by the uDoaoal papll, either a backward or a
forward acholar, may ad ranee gradually, aooordlog
to bla or bar ability. The plan, moreover,
obviate* tbe dteooaraglng preoUee oi

Humanity loves to be loved for
Itself and under the ragged shirts and
toiled dresses of poor outcast men and
women there is a heart that wants love
just as much as jou want love and a
- *i? i n
jooa deal more, oecause iurjr iw<?u ?
Had it and you have.
The Lord'* order in fact, faith, feellug;
and we are to take them Id thin
srder. Home people try to climb up
to faith by feeling, but they fall. Acsept
the fact; rest on it by faith, aad
n> ascend to the feeling.
The days are ever divine. They
some and go like muffled and veiled
figures vent from a distant friendly
party ; but they say nothing and if we
So not use the gifts they bring, they
carry them silently away.
The Bible is the only book which
ibows us what we are?not only our
needs; but our possibilities. Too many
men are content to live in the valley
or to roam about among the foothills
who might be climbing upon the
peaks of the higher Christian experience.
Let us not be of those who discourage
others by telling tbem bow bad
the way is, or that it is not for tbem,
pr that the sacrifice is terrible, or that
they can never succeed. Let us go
nf nnr viv to cheer other* up;
tad let us make the entrance to the
eburcb and tbe Christian life as easy
is we can for tbe little children, of
whom tbe Saviour thinks much more
highly than he can of us.
Make Christ your mint constant
companion. Be more under bis lnfiu<
ence. Ten minutes spent in bis sociery
every day?aye, two minutes, if it be
face to face and heart to heart?will
make the whole day different. Every
character has an inward spring.
Every action basa keynote; let Christ
be that note to which your whole life
is attuned.
A little boy In one of our hospitals,
whose life hsd been brought back to
bim hugely by tbe tender and careful
attention of one of the nurses, on being
discharged as cured, threw bis arms
about tbe nurse's ncck and exclaimed:
"My mother will never hear tbe last
of you !" So It is tbst when Christ
comes to us, binding our broken
hearts, healing our wounded spirits,
and saving our dying souls, constrained
by love to him and gratitude for
our salvation, we long to confers him
before men, and to join ourselves wuu
those who love sod serve him.
Goodness has ever been a stronger
guard than valor. It is the surest
policy always to have peace with <?od.

Reflections of m rtiHtr.
Lack of money makes the mare go ^
ime.
The surest way to stay poor permalanently
is to try to get rich quick.
It takes a woman to do ignoble
liings iu a spirit that ennobles her.
A little touch of spring, a dash of
naffination. a flavor of forbidden
ruit?and you have a first clan scansi.
A woman considers that she makes
man a good wife when she won't
;t him go to the club on a rainy
ight for fear he will catch pneu>ouia.
The early bird that catches the

It's a curious thing that women
euuinely weep at weddingsand pre;n<l
to at funerals.
When a girl And puts on suspender
