L. i# _ % & +1 What are you going to write about this week?” said my most ‘ particular lady friend, and I have only very few of that order. ‘‘The management of Husbands,” I replied, says a writer in the San Francisco News-Letter. “Well, that's done in a very few words,” she said, laughing; “give him the latch-key, kiss him good-Bight, and tell Kim to come in when he Tike*, as you are going to bed, and that man will be in leading-strings forthwith.” I agree with my friend that hers Is a splendid recipe; still I have an idea that I can give one quite as good, and one having more nobility of purpose. There is nothing living so easily man aged as tho average man, but, then, the wife must understand diplomacy and be a tactician to the tips of her fingers. What violence or tears will never ac complish tact will. I have alwa thought there is somethin wrong in tho marriage tie, is becomes a difficult matter to define when searching into bottojn facts. Men, as a rule, marrv women for love, J et we sec every day these one-time appy doves drifting apart and acting as though separ&tiou would be tho kap- J >icst thing for both. To marry for ove simply is absurd. Unless there is a largo amount of respect on either side the name of love soon die* out, leaving a barren manor for tho dwellers there on. I really think those marriages are happiest where there is less flnino and passion and more quiet respect in the first place, since there is always a cer tainty of love following in the after lime, for wo must respect first what wo finally love. However, supposing you have a husband whom you wish to twirl around your little finger, you must first love him “with all your heart, with all your soul,” etc., etc., and the love you feel will make it possible to put up with all those little discrepancies whicncrop out in man’s nature w hen you come to live with him; for the best of men be come monotonous after awhile. In the first place, should your husband be a man of business, who comes home tired to death, cross, and worn out, do not at once entertain him with the troubles you have gone through during the day. Do not rehearse the shortcomings of the servants or the disobedience of the children. Meet him with a smile, kiss him, take his hat and overcoat from him, and let him severely alone until he has toned down his irritability with a good dinner; after which he will be in a position to listen to anything yon may nave to say: bnt I always found it an excellent plan to hide disagree ables entirely from a husband’s notice. Men don’t want to hare a repetition of annoyances at home when they hfive so many in their daily path outpule, and, believe me, the efiect of keeping house hold squabbles out of your husband's knowledge wonderfully enhances your value as a wife. I have seen so many nrrant fools fly at their husbands tho moment they enter the house, and there and then give a detailed aoeount of the troubles of the day, even taking to tears as an argument on,their side— and oh! how men hate tears; how they detest household details—and, being naturally selfish, in fact hate anything that puts them out at home; and they are right. The bread-winner ought to be relieved from domestic jars. Of all things, when your husband comes home see that his dinner is well cooked. Don’t make a row because the meat is underdone or burnt to * stick. Rather go into the kitchen your self and see that everything is oomme 11 tout You don’t know now a man appreciates a loving welcome and a good dinner after the toil of tho day. Put yourself in his place, each woman who has to toil far a fatherless flock. You don’t like to come home to a cloudy atmosphere and an ill-oooked meal. You think you am at least en titled to serene comfort at home, and if you don’ t get it yon rebel Why Abt men alsor Nothing on earth fetches a man like a good dinner and a well-dressed wife presiding. The husband who can look forward to such a state of things every day of his life will never tire of home, and the wife who studies his comfort will have little difficulty managing him according to her wjU. Men are gre garious animals, and will wander in spite of all allurements; but they are ■elfish enough to remain where they are beet treated, and by taking a little trouble fa* a year or two of married life the tears that follow will ae a the husband always glad togo to the pretty home where qmifiia ■wait him, and the dinner I spoke of. There are many women who object to betfig “bossed,” as they call it. My 4esr ladies, yon can always be boas U yon take the trokMe. By giving in yonfetyour own w«r ti yon ~ woom by fighting for tfc And, all, it is better to feel you respect your husband so much that to give In to him is not a difficulty. Of oomrse, I am now speaking of the right kind of man. There am some men inch perfect brutes that no kindness has any effect upon them. When yon fire unfortunate enough to catch such a one, divorce him at once and tale earn how you choose the next Nina men out of ten are manageable, if yon go the right way about it and one great point is to act after marriage exastfy as you did before. Argument afcd contr diction are vital enemies to married peace. Should you wish for anything particu larly, don’t insist upoto It after refusal. Of course you must Juve it but bide your time. Some women are persist ent and ask: “Whymaylnotr Why won’t you do as I wan! you?” and ir ritate the man. Bather bide your time, make an extra good dinner of bis fav orite dishes, put a bow, on of the color he likes, make home and yourself sweeter than ever. Yin'll ret It sure, even if you have to wait Also, when you want him to dor any particular thing which you know will be for his good, for heaven’s sake do not say. “doit” Rather drop a hint that you think so and so would be a good thing to do. Get him interested, and then let tho subject drop. $ venture to Say that in a short time that man will do precisely ns you wished, ho will never permit you to think that he has traded the least bit on yohr common-sense. Now, some women uxfier such circum stances would crow over the husband with “I told you so, sad now you come to my way of thirAing.” Absurd, ladies, absurd; ncverlet a man know you rule him, yet rulf him in all things if you can. * I believe that it is Perfectly possible to keep your husban&so perpetually in love with you that he rather likes to be ruled than not. Nemr ask for a new dress till aftef dinners and never press your husband to buy phat he can’t af ford. How many men are brought to ruin through the extravagance of a silly, exacting wife. Tho reason I say postpone requests tity after feeding time is because man is so partial to good food that if it Is good, and he has had enough of it, his temper will bo so heavenly afterward that in very grati tude he will bo prepared to do any thing in the world for you. Never be jealous without cause. To bo jealous of the young lady whom your husband sees home, inwazdlyArishing her to the devil and himself in Wd, is simply put ting thoughts into his head which would never have oatered otherwise. At the same time let tt* remember the prayer, “Lead us not into temptation.” and do not, on any aoeount, trust your husband with any on* who has not a great respect for hermlf. I may say, trust no woman, but * trust your hus band till you fiud him out.

When tho teacher has shown by his acquirements that ho is entitled to a sertificate, then this shonld be an end iff the whole matter so far as the branches upon which he has been ex amined are concerned. But now, in order to make his preparation effective, the true, higher, and more comprehen sive work ofthe teacher should begin. There should be prescribed for him, un der proper legislation, a course of read ing and study outside aad beyond his common school curriciflum. Upon set portions of this course every teacher throughout the state, and.

Too little attention is given in our schools to the cultivation of the (esthetic emotions of our pupils,—to that part of their nature which is in sympathy with the beautiful in nature, art, and humanity. That Is altogether too narrow a view which limits the word education in its meaning to the knowledge of books acquired at school There is a higher education, a nobler culture, and a more graceful refine ment than that which comes from the world of books alone.

The psychology that the teacher eeds to uow is: (1) What are the conditions,—that is, what must be sup plied, or be assumed to exist,—before the mind will perceive, or remember,or imagine, or generalize and classify; or reason?

One of the speakers deprecated the use of the term “new education” as mislead ing.

SLXXP. Oho of the first indications of ap proaching danger to mental integrity is an inability to sleep. This symptom la generally present quite early in the history of acute insanity and nervous exhaustion, warning ns that the safety- point of mental strain is being passed. Any form of intellectual labor which leave* the individual unable to sleep soon after retiring is injurious, and, it continued notwithstanding this protest of natnro, is sure to be followed, soon er or later, by disaster. Mental activity is carried on at the expense of brain tisane. With every operation of the mind there is an actual disintegration of the cerebral cells. To repair this constant waste, the brain, to common with every other organ of the body, requires rest, and this is obtained chiefly during sleep. Hence, to curtafl the hours of reel is to imperil the integ rity of the brate, for the waste will then exceed the repair. The .testa to the moai deUdate *ad oompUoated etrifilt are ot the cere it Is ca labor.

This important fact indicate* tne danger from over-taxation of the mental powers during childhood, and emphasizes the necessity for the fullest amount of sleep during this period of life, when the functional activity of the brain is greatest. “Tho more active the mind,” says Dr. Hammond, “the greater the necessity for sleep.” Parents arc apt to forget the need of brain-rest during school life in their de. •ire for the child’s mental wlvauco- ment, and often censure the schools for results which are often solely due to their own lack of proper care and watchfulness in permitting habits ami methods of living out of school hours, which are detrimental to mental and physical healthf ulness. There are many things connected with our present school system which are unp' cal andlnjurimu; but It must remembered that daring eighteen honre of the day the child is subject to other which, although different in character, may be capable of causing quite as much injury as those arising from the public schools. Improper by- S ienic conditions and bad habits of vieg are by no means confined to the daily session of school life. Tho home life u strictly within the parents' keep ing, and, before holding the school re sponsible for a given case of Ill-health, it iuqy be well to learn the manner in which the child is allowed to spend his time outside of school, and especially those hours which should be devoted to sleep. The legitimate educational work is, of itself, sufficient to fully engage the mental powers ot the child; and, when not in school, he should be kept as free as possible from over-exoitemeut or exhausting pleasures. The practice now too common among parents of per mitting their children to engage in (he fashionable frivolities and dteetpations of life, with their attendant evils of or- MStimoUHon gnd Uto be too strongly odndemned. Onolfrtho effect* of Onr present high E ressuroStyle of living is to oeuse ao icreased development of the nervous system, which is sure to be transmitted in a greater or less degree,* giving to th*children of coming generations an abnormal susceptibility of the nervous system, and rendering them unable to bear with safety those burdens of life which, under ordinary circumstance* are not injurious to a well-balanced mind. Children inheriting the pervous diathesis will bb found in our public schools in increasing numbers in the years to come, unless some radical re forms in our methods of Uyiug are footed.
