Physical Trammg In Schools “‘ It is proposed to introduce into all common schools a course of instruction in the mysteries of working in wood and metals. This is urged on two grounds. First, that of fitting people to earn their living; second, that of gaining the culture of character that. comes from labor with the hands. To the latter it may be answered, that manual training at school is not devoted to productive industry. because its interest is not to supply the market of the world. The reat moral culture that comes from the father that earns one’s daily bread is not derived from the muscular exercise of the hands and body, nor from the mental activity that directs the muscles, but rather from the subordination of one’s self for the good of others, the earnest bending of all one‘s power to the task of producing something for the market of the world so as to share in the produc- tion of' one’s fellows by the process of exchange. To earn one’s living has therefore, a special educational value of its own. But manual training is not of this character. Hence the industry over books and science, which is genuine inâ€"} dustry, is superior in character training. To the former it must he replied that. to train all pupils for the wood and metal industries is to overcrowd those occupaâ€" tions. In the twentyâ€"five industries re iating to wood work. and in the twenty- two relating to the metals, there are en- gaged, according to our last census, in the aggregate less than three in one hundred of the population, or counting in the families, about 8 per cent. or one in thirteen of the entire population The number is not likely to increase, because the invention of' machinery continually increases the production of each laborer. Now culture in taste, such as drawing gives. fits all laborers for more lucrative situations, and helps our productions to hold the markets of the world. Manual training schools should be provided everywhere in sufiicient numbers to take the place .of‘ the wasteful and antiquated system of apprenticeship in the several trades and occupations. Natural science should be taught in oral lessons from the very first year of' the school. One lesson a week, if‘ a long lesson, is sufficient. Knowledge of' natural science is of uniâ€" versal application to all human employâ€" ments that deal with the conquest of nature. While manual training is useâ€" ful to a few, a knowledge of natural science is useful to all, and this both in business and in culture. There should he one lesson each week in general hisâ€" tory, given in all the grades of schools, like natural science orally. It leads to the habit of looking at humanity, while natural science leads to the observation of physical nature.” We take the following from an ex- change, which, in our opinion, merits atâ€" tention from those placed in positions of trust. business and in culture. There should l-e one lesson each week in general hisâ€" tory, given in all the grades of schools, like natural science orally, It leads to the habit of looking: at humanity, while natural science leads to the observation of physical nature.” Reports In Advance. The Dominion Blue Books are comâ€" ing to hand before the session of Parliaâ€" ment. In speaking of this the London Free Press says: “ This is as it should be.

Hence, he thoughtthe county had a fair claim, on this account as against the city, which should be pressed for indemnity when county and city next arbitrate on the question of criminal justice expense. Mr. Mowat thought the countv quite right in pressing indemnity against the loss it yearly 'Sustnins. Will Be Fully Met. Indications of Dyspepsia, such as Sour Stomach. Heartâ€"burn, Sick Headache.

WORTH KNOWING.â€"A correspondent of' The Country Gentleman says if copâ€" peras and saltpetrc water is used around pear trees the tree will show the effects in a large yield of' fruit. He tried his own a Bartlett pear tree that had yielded no fruit For two years previous. That very year it yielded 155 lnrqefine pears, and the following year 25‘) large ones, and is still doing finely. If pear trees want iron, which most soils are deficient in, sulphate of iron or copporas is a good way to supply it. A FINE lot of Melton Dress Goods from 7 cents per yard up, at Crosby's.

Nesbitt, was burned to the ground on Tuesday, 6th inst“ and Mrs. Nesbitt, and her youngest child burned to death. Mr. Nesbitt being away from home, the task of rescuing the family fell wholly on Mrs Nesbitt, who, after getting her six children safely out, took her babe of nine months 'n her arms and went back for some u“ flown reason, and bmh’perislmd in the flames. The cause of the fire is unknown. SET ASIDEâ€"Mr. Justice McMahon gave judgment at; Osgoode Hall on Thursday last in the Markham municiâ€" pal election cases, holdingr that the re- lator’s proceedings on which quo warâ€" rauto summonses issued were irregular, and therefore that the summonses and all other proceedings should be set aside with costs, The application for leave to amend was refused. The relator, Mr. Chauncey, paid the costs, and will have fresh writs issued. His proceedings are against the seats of Reeve Vanzaut, and Councillors Billings and Ash, upon the grounds of bribery and lack of due property qualification. making a decided hitch, which consid‘ erably marred the effect. But the star that led them all was Mr. Sharpe in his corner. solos. The boys went wild with enthusiasm and on each appearance he was rapturously encored. The Jubilee sisters, of Barrie (7), were present and their make-up was, to say the least' rather startling. Their general style may he described as a la beanpoleâ€"inâ€"a- mealâ€"bag. They made the best “hit” ofthe evening, and were recalled with great applause. They evidently boarded themselves while in town as one of' them carried a hamper. Mr. Duncumb was apparently in his element, and sang, acted and played in a style peculiarly his own. He was repeatedly encoredI but modestly refrained from respondinnr. The wax»figures failed to materialize, owing to the absence of some of the artists. Seldom, perhaps never before, has Richmond Hill been treated to so thoroughly funny an entertainment as that of Tuesday evening.

Mr. Brodie. of Aurora, impersonated the orchestra, acted as accompanist, and sang several comic songs. We are possessed of a dreamy notion that we heard these songs beforeâ€"away back in the hazy past, in Childhood’s happy hour. Miss Julia Young, of Toronto, recited a tale of‘ the American war, and a selection from the writings of Douglas Jerrold. Mrs. and Miss McMullen sang the old favorite, “ \Vhispcring Hope.” but judging by its reception it was not sufficiently comical to suit the audience. Mr. McMullen gave as a solo, “ Warrior Bold,” and also sang in a duet with Mrs. McMullen In the solo given by Mrs. McMullen the piano failed to connect With the tune, SUBJECTs.â€"Many rumors being afloat ‘ as to the disposition of bodies at the Inâ€" dustrial Home,Mr. Irwin,superintendent, feels called upon to make the following eXplanation :â€"-“ Through a grave error of a Toronto reporter copied into several of the city papers, I am represented as admitting to the committee of the County Council that certain bodies of persons dying here had been sold. I made no such admission. There was never'a body sold from this institution. What I told the committee was, that certain bodies had been sent to Toronto to the'Medical Schools, and if you will refer to page 150 of the Ontario Statutes for 1888“; you will see that I would have ‘ subjected myself to a penalty of not less than $20 for every unclaimed body I neglected to send' I may add that I would be immediately prosecuted if I attempted to disobey the statute. I would have been glad personally to have made this explanation much earlier, but out of consideration of those under my care I have chosen to remain silent at ' the risk of having my own position in the matter misunderstood, but. the course recently taken demands that the public should know.” A VAUGHAN PIONEER GONE.â€"Mary Archer, widow of the late Geo. Wilson, died in Vaughan. Ont., on Feb. 3rd, in her 94th year. She came with her hus- band from Scotland to Toronto in 1830. They remained in the latter place till 1834, when they removed to the 9th eon. of Vaughan, where they spent the rest of their lives. The subject of this sketch Was one of the first communicants (in 1831) in the St. Andrew’s church in Toronto, which once stood at the corner of Church and Adelaide streets. In all likelihood not one of them is now alive. It was she who made the “ great chiefâ€" ‘ tain o’ the puddio’ race ” for the first St Andrew’s Society’s dinner in Toronto. She used to tell with glee that when she received the appointment to do so, one of the number suggested to her to inâ€" clude some brandy among the materials for it. According to the highest- authâ€" orities on the subject the use of said liquid “ intill’t” is a most unconstituâ€" tional mode of procedure. Whether it be antiâ€"constitutional or not as regards the eater is, of course. another question. The departed was highy respected by all who knew her A large number at- , tended her funeral from her late home to V Knox church burying ground, Vaughan. The pastor. the Rev. P. Nicol. conâ€" ducted service in the house and another in the church. Amid the conflicts of public sentiment it is pleasant to observe that there is one sub- ject upon which all partissgsects and classes think alike. We refer to the beneficent re- form in the practice of medicine of which THnMAs HOLLOWAY is the author. What-- ever may be the difl‘erence of opinion as to the best cures for political evils, there are none as to the best remedies for disease. The experiment has been made, and its success is assured by an uninterrupted series of triumphs extending over many years, and covering every human ailment. All plots of parties. all schemes of political aggrandizement. sink into insignificance when contrasted with the scope and objects of an enterprise which showers its remedial influence wherever death threatens or pliy-- sical pain exists. To explain the uses of Holloway's Pills and Ointment, to point out the certainty and rapidity with which they operate upon the elementary germs of disease. to recount the cares which they are daily accomplishing in cases that have been pronounced beyond the reach of medi- cine, to reproduce here the proofs of their infallibility with which the public journals throughout the world continually teem. would be to fill our columns with informa- tion always familiar to an intelligent people. In the wooded wilderness and the inhospiâ€" table marsh, in the gilded saloon as in the lowly cottages, on the fishing grounds, on the borders of the inland seas, and in the pasture lands of the interior, as iii the densely populated towns, everywhere these preparations are reckoned among: the necessaries of life. Fever and ague, bilious and fever rheumatism, asthma, and all other complaints that. are the concomitants of exposure and privation, or the effect of a vitrated atmosphere, are so readily and uni-- formly controlled by the Pills and Ointment, that all classes accept and use, and ac» knowledge them to be the one great world’s i remedy for disease. In towns where lux-- ‘ urious living and the thousand indulgences i of' social his lead to many of the maladies ; produced by other causes in the country, the beneficial operation of these medicines has been no less marked and palpable; and their peptilarity, founded as it is upon the daily experience of the sick. must al-- 1Ways continue to increase as ease is pre-- ferred to pain.â€" The Advocate Barley Outs, . l’ems do ‘ ..
