Let it be remembered that the 1 teacher is responsible that the child j knows how to read. A little consideration will lead us to conclude that the teacher must instruct the pupil ! as to what he shall read. There are a vast number of bad books, books ' that do so much damage that it were j almost better tjie child had never j learned to read. And then, the best ; j books are not lying around usually; they have to be sought for. So that | the teacher must steadily labor to j teach the pupil which the best books ! are and to give him a desire to them, j 1. The first step will be to tell the j pupil stories of the right kind. These ; must create an appetite, must excite j interest for reading and for investigation. The great mine of classical stories has been worked for a thousand years, and is not yet exhausted. The story of the destruction of Troy I and of the wanderings of Ulysses ! and of JEneas were told over and over besides the hearthstones of old Greece and Rome. They are just as delightful to day. The recasting of -lV 1 TT _ 1 ,1 j mese oy nawmonie in uis -nuuuw Book" brings tliem within range of every teacher. Then there are historical stories, such as those recast by Jacob Abbot, and which gave him his fame as a j writer. The stories of Cyrus, of Alexander, of Alfred the Great, of i "Washington, of Lincoln, of Grant and Garfield, will never be without interest. Then there are stories of inventions that are quite as attractive. The story of Thomas A. Edison is now, while he is alive, a wonderful thin#. /- ' ? r There are stories of those who dis- | covered and applied the power of ' steam; of spinning, and weaving, of 1 manufacturing iron and steel of those 1 syr who invented the steamboat and the 1 locomotive, and of printing machines. ; , ^ lhe held is a large one. ] H Stories of travel and adventure ^ are innumerable. The. stories of i i Chinese j Gordon and Sir John Franklin, have Now the point made is that these 1 stories should be the teacher's propertv; they should be at her tongue's , end, as it were. A lady lately wrote: ''When at school we often staid after hours to get our teacher to tell us a ; i 1 storv." The true way way to rouse ! * * a love of good literature is for the j AA Alli.l* 4 A Ka IVllKnA.'l >4 T i- ?. I irnvuvi iv? uc iiuwucu "Jiu iu ib in J not enough to say, ''That is a bad book: you must not read it." Nor is j it enough to say, '"That is a good book; read that." The teacher must give the pupils glimpses of the bright ^ lields of literature. It is a good plan for the teacher to j have the older pupils assist in this ''story telling." Let him assign one i to tell the story of Alexander, for j example, another that of Alferd the Great, and so on. In the course of a school year the names of a hundred actors in the world's history can be made familiar to the pupils. They will want to know more about them. . 2. There will be a good deal of i 3: 3 a .. A-.? ?-n i icuumg, uuu nit* question wli come up continually before the teacher, "What are my pupils reading?" The question should be often put to them personally, and in time they will ask, "What had I better read?" One teacher reports that she has each pupil have a little blank book in which she records the works she reads. Another teacher has a report made viva voce each week. "I am reading Tvanhoe.*" "I am reading 'Outre Mer,'" and so on. Then she comments and asks opinions. "Jen- * nie, you had 'The Heart of Midlo?? - thian last week; how did you like it?" The pupil is encouraged to have an * opinion, and utter it. Another teacher puts up a list of j ' books for hor "Fourth Tfpfwlor ot?sa to I read, and encourages them in reading them. In these cases there is access to town or city libraries. j A caution must be observed here; J some teacher dehne good books as ( those that discuss religion or morals; ' they think only of those that might ^ belong in Sunday schools. Twenty- < O V V 4. live years ago it would have been f impossible to have found Irving's ''Rip Van Winkle" in a Sunday school libiary, but it has got into a | good many now. "Good reading" j means rightly all that class of read I I iug that awakens thought, and tends i to give a broader scope to thought, ; i puts the individual into a more com- j } plete understanding of his surround- j I ings. Some of this may have a j i direct moral influence, some may act i 1 so only remotely. The play of Ham ] let must be classed as good reading? t if is exciting, but it does not degrade. 1 Hence the teacher must not mark oft' j r 1 romances and works of the imagina ' tion from his list of good reading. d. Then the teacher should aim j to encourage the owning of a few : hooks by each pupil. A teacher relates: '*A stranger came to my j school and asked the girls. 'What ! books do you ow n for your very own? : I do not mean the Bible, f suppose you all have one. Uut what DooK ; do you treasure and take down and j read when you want to have a very ! nice time?" Then followed a discussion, and the result was that in the course of a j few weeks several of the girls had J bought Longfellow's poems. Nothing will be accomplished j unless the teacher makes a business j of reading herself, and of getting her 1 pupils to read. A list of books (for ' pupils over twelve) should be put up in the school room, and then ques* ,T" "? 1T-*l| tions asked. "Who nave read 'not) | inson Crusoe"'?" "AYho have read | Tvanhoe' V etc. The teacher who | ; pursues some such course as is out- j lined above will surely arouse a love for good reading. Simply Lives tc Sat. The Island of Korea is said to boast the greatest eaters in the world. A traveller says that "more than any of his fellow men, we can say the Korean lives to eat. He is not particular, but eats anything he gets his hands on. Twelve meals a day would not trouble him." What a complicated impression this gives the South particularly, where dyspepsia is peculiarly the national ailment to such an extent that only through the use of Dr. Westmoreland's Calisaya Tonic do our i people find relief. This wonderful remedy is an unfailing relief in loss J of appetite, general debility, and has j no peer in malarial sections, where j its anti-periodic properties dissipate the poison and brace up the enervated system. Where the system is run down, physicians invariably prescribe it. Its formula is applauded i in the most eminent medical circles i as the desideratum of the age.

Presumably, if cou don't intend to allow yourself to * l be- kissed, your manner will not suggest the notion of kissing you to the man. Few men will try to kiss a girl unless there is a chance for suc?ess. Besides struggling: musses yuiir hair and crumples your laces md breaks tbe flowers you wear, and leaves any number of traces by which the girls can tell just what happened. It's much prettier to just pretend to the last minute that you don't know what is going to happen. In this :ase you never lose the kiss, as you ( nav if you do the "struggling" act, V o o o 1 md it is much more satisfactory than ifter struggling or during a struggle. OC1 O O OO i'ou can be awfully surprised" and \ ^asp "Oh!?how?how dare you," \ md clasp your hands over your face i i ' ...1 l. - x- - _ x . tun suy van uway, ueii Lie tries iu < soothe you, and "T will never speak ;o you again," and "I hate you," and til that. It is just as effective as before the kiss, and just as pretty ' tnd all that, and it does not muss four hair so much. The proud and jaughty method is verv satisfactory J " * 1 f you choose the right man. You mould let the "cool moon" shine full ipon your face, and with your lips curling scornfully," you say; "You vould not dare," and look him stead 1 ly and scornfully in the eye. You 1 nust be sure to choose a man who ^ .vill not be scared to death at this and kvisli himself at home. The ri?ht ( O ?ort of man will grab you instantly. ; rhen you can do the "contrast" act, s kvliich is very effective, turn meek md quiet and "half timid," or do the < ;ragedy queen business and leave the ] gentle act for later. Now all men j .lon't go in for "taming" girls, and ( ill men don't go in for catching the ;oquette, and all don't fancy teachng and encouraging shy girls. The rouble with most girls is they adopt * heir method and stick to it right hrough. You should always change four method with your man. 1 ' f A Drink Fit For Ye Gods."

Its timely use saye many lives. At J. \Y. Long's. If ignorance is bliss, the wonder is why so many people complain of be ing miserable. It takes a good many years for a man to get old, but when he once gets it he hangs on to it. There are many men who are generous to a fault, but it is generally to their own faults. Don't storm the system as you would a fort. If held by the enemy, constipation, erently persude it to surrender with De "Witt's Little Early Risers. These little pills are wouderful convincers. At J. W. Long's. The "Waltham watch factory company pays its employees monthly in gold. It is said that there are now seventy two women preachers in the United States. Investigate their merits. De Witt's Little Early Risers don't gripe, cause nauser or pain, which accounts for their popularity. J. "W. Lon" say he would not. run a drug ?. O * O store without those little pills. There has been a frost in Connecticut every month this year, except the present one. Stonewall Jackson, was, it is said, the worst rider in both armies. He wabbled about in his saddle like a drunken man, and seemed every minute about to fall oft' his horse. De Witt's Sarsaparilla cleanses the blood, increases the appetite and tones up the system. It has beneCLLL~ 1 1 iV 1 uneu iiiaii v peojne wuo nave sunereu from blood disorders. It will help you. At J. W. Long's. True courage is cool and clam. The bravest of men have the least of brutal bullying insolence, and in the very time of danger are the most serene, pleasant and free. General Booth's encouragement to bach-sliders is: "It's a pity you fell, but it's no use lving there. Get up!" People with impure blood may be said to exist, not live. Life is robbed of half its joys when the blood is loaded with impurities and disease. Correct this condition with De Witt's Sarsaparilla, it is re liable. At J. \Y. Long's. 33 ly Tlie time when people need religion most is when they can't have their own way about things. We could all be great men if we i*old be measured by the great ! things we intend on to inorrrw. Commercial agencies throughout j the country are predicting a lively I business season the coming full. You never tried De Witt's Little Early Risers for constipation, biliousness, sick headache or you svould not have these diseases. At J. "W. Long's. The man who hasn't the capacity to attend to his own business always | inds others to do it for him, remarks j " die Galveston News. Truthfulness is a corner-stone in character, and if not firmly laid in routli there will ever after be a weak spot in the foundation. We can not afford to deceive you Confidence is begotten by honesty. I De Witt's Little Early Eiders are nils that will cure constipation and j fick headache. At J. W.
