Brooklyn, where a little boy, who died recently, is supposed to have been the victim of this sort of correction. The Citizen says that “the boy’s hands were struck with a strap, after which he was hit on the lower part of the back with a piece of bicycle tire." It is not known posi tively that this beating was the cause of the illness (cerebral meningitis) that resulted in the boy’s death, but there are those who think It was. At all events, It has occasioned a good deal of talk as to the merits or demerits of cor poral punishment in the schools, it would seem, however, that there ought to be no occasion for any talk on this subject, for there ought to be no such subject The schools are no place for corporal punishment, if, Indeed, It can Justly be said that there is a place on earth for It. Many there are who con cede to the parent the right to beat the child, but It may be questioned that he has a moral right to do so. It is not clearly established that nature made the child either to do right or to be whipped for not doing right, and It is not unreasonable to say that In a very large percentage of cases the parent who uses the rod Is moved to revenge on the child his own neglect In the mat ter of the child’s training. Whatever, however, may be thought as to the propriety or otherwise of the parental thrashing, no teacher ought to be per mitted to lay violent hands on the pupil. It is a humiliating, a degrading punishment, fit only for the correction of beasts, which have no reasoning powers to appeal to. There are many Ways in which a child may successful ly be reached—through his Instinct of honor or of pride; through the spirit of manliness that Is gaining growth In him; through his hope of reward or his fear of merited punishment; through Jove; through manifestation of inter est In him, and through his sympathies, and the gentlest of these ways are, as a rule, the most effective. It is a fact that teachers have achieved great sue- fcess in dealing with pupils without the Use of the rod, and all ought to be com- jpelled to do so, if they can’t, to make way for those who can. % era re, for re enough,lay the gaunt form of tl drover, with every sign upon it oi - deep sleep.

There is a Jew, a native of Litsk, Russia, living in the East End of London, who has fasted for twenty years, his sole daily diet during that time consisting of six pints of milk, three pints of beer, and half a pound of Demerara sugar. His name ia Morris Fox. He is an excellent Tal- mudical scholar, and in spite of his frugal meals, he is the most healthy, intelligent and wideawake person in his quarter. He is now over forty. At the age of seventeen, it appears, he caught some lingering fever, which shattered his constitution acd entirely destroyed his digestive organs. He took many kinds of treatment from many physicians, until his stomach became inured to all medicine. At the Kieff Hospital they vainly tried to cure him by sponging and electrolysis; at Vienna his physicians included the well-known Drs. Albert and North- nagel. His treatment at Carlsbad was a failure; then he traveled to Konigs- berg, when the physicians decided that he must live on sugar, milk and beer. He adopted their prescription, and soon regained normal health. For j twenty years no solid food has passed his mouth. . done do dat, and I hope to die « pretty near every one of dem ain’t dead and burled.” His hearers expressed surprise at his remarkable statement and asked for particulars. “Well, some of dem got killed and one thing an’ another, and sojne Jest natehelly died.
