on Transcript.
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.

A Man Fast* for Twsntv Tsnrs.
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

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. But they is pretty near
all gone to-day."
“How long ago did this thirteen at
table Incident occur?"
“Now, lemme see. Been about thirty
year since the war, ain’t it? V* ell, I
epees it must a happened fifteen or
twenty years before the war broke out.
But it makes me feel about as oneasy
as though It was only yisterday. I
epees I’ll be the next most any day."

The war that was waged against lo-
Susts in defence of the crops and vine
yards in Algeria last year Is described
as having been extensive as well as
very successful. Lines of defence 322
miles In aggrega^ length were con
structed, and in the ditches placed to
receive the pests as they fell from the
barriers more than 270,000 bushels of
young locusts were destroyed.
