When Stephen Girard was prepar ing bis plans for the organization of Girard College be set down as one of his wishes that the orphans who were to be the beneficiaries of his bounty should.be taught "things ratber than words." He was not an educator, but he had had large ex perience as a merchant and shipper and bad bad occasion to employ a great number of young men, some illiterate, others highly educated, and be bad come to the conclusion that much of the education of the day was misdirected. It was for that reason that he desired the pupils of his school to be taugbt "things rath er than words." The idea was crud ely expressed, as might have been expected from a man of affairs who during all his life bad paid less at tention to language than the ideas it is intended to convey, but a half a century or more after his time edu cators began to take up bis idea. The systems and methods of in struction now most in vogue in the public schools of the United States are based upon Girard's prescription. Toey are not applied, perhaps, as he would have applied tbem, but the schools of to-day give more attention thau formerly to things and less at toation to mere word. That they do not altogether succeed in realizing Girard's aspiration is due to the fact that many of the teachers have been brought i.p on words and do not know much about things. Another generation will no doubt show some improvement. In scieuce teaching, which is relatively a new study for the pupils of the public schools, the difference betweeu the old and the new systems is most clearly shown. In Girard's time such science as was taught was memorized from books; the present day the aim, at least, though it is seldom realized, is to make the pupil observe and think for himself. In the one case he is taught words; in the other things. It is comparatively easy matter to teach words from a textbook. I be pupil is required to memorize and the only duty of the teacher is to hear the lesson" and see that the pupil recites according to the book. But if the pupil is to be taught things rather than words the teacher must know enough to guide and di rect the observation of the pupil; he must be capable of directing the lat ter to right conclusions respecting the observations made, he must be a master of his subject and himself have a knowledge of things rather than words. Such teachers are not easilv found and will not be until the svstem has been used for many years That it is the true system of educa tion every successful business man knows, not only from his personal experience.but from his dealings with hnnk-educated men. I he man wno, in or out of school, has acquired knowledge of things is useful as an employe; the man who knows noth- in,. .pnt. what is taught in dooks and that only by rote, is impractic able. To freshen the life of the schools it would seem to oe uesiruuie the teachers themselves instead of passing at once from a normal school to the teacher's chair should be re quired to serve a term in a business oflice, where they would add to their knowledge of words a knowledge of things, and more especially a knowl edge of business methods, which are in general quite different from those set down in the books. Stephen Gi rard did not preteud to be a pada r0'ue, but when he demanded that the boys of the college to be founded in his name should betaugnt inings rather than words" he set the key note of the educational method adopt ed long after bis death. vovpr decide upou all you may see for he who decides upon all that he r toides on more than he sees uncu sees. .i,ww riovs and nicrhts I suffered .l(Tony untold from an attack of cholera morbus brought on by eating ci.cunib ., "avs M.

ARP'S DOU IS DEAD. RIU Laments the Demise of His Faithful and Intelligent Canine. Old Laddie is dead. Our good old We ne'er shall see him more. He died last Sunday at 1 o'clock; we buried him at 4. Laddie was seventeen years old. We raised him from puppyhood to doghood, and all those years he seemed like one of the family. He loved us all and we loved him, for he was affectionate good mannered, dignified, courageous and very hand some. He never sought a fight with another dog, but never declined one and always came off the victor. His face and neck and feet and part of his tail were white; his hair long and glossy and his eyes were amber or rather a brilliant yellow sapphire. In truth, he was a very handsome dog and came from well-bred stock, his grandsire having been sold for 1500 in Montgomery, He was known as a shepherd dog a Scoth collie and knew his duties and qualities by instinct "and inheritance. We did not have to train him to go after the sheep or the cattle and bring them home, Whan I left the farm and moved to town he seemed lost and unhappy for awhile, butsoon adapted himself to the little grandchildren and followed them around and dur ing his last illness, when he couldent walk, it would please him for me to lift him up to the sandbed, where the childreu were playing. The smaller the children tbe stronger his love for them. Tbey were the sheep and he was the good shepherd. We did not send his carcass to the potter's field. I dug a shapely grave down ki the corner of the garden, then lifted his dead body gently into the wheelbarrow and rolled it to the place. The-wheelbarrow was the hearse. I was the horse and five of the grandchildren were the escort. When all was ready my wife and daughters came down to the funeral and we buried Laddie and mounded up his grave and placed a board with his name and age upon it at the head and another at the foot. The little children plucked some green aspar agus nearby and some Texas pinks and roses and slowly and sadly we went away as mourners. Dogs have curious and interesting history. In ancient times they were under the ban of Jewish contempt and were pronounced and denounced as un clean by the Mosaic law. rsot a good word is said of them in all scripture. "The price of a dog is an abomination to the Lord," saith Moses. Job saith: "I disdained to set their fathers with tbe dogs of my flock." "Am I a dog?-' "Be ware of dogs." "For without are dogs and socerers and idolaters and murderers and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie." But surely they must have had some good reputable dogs, or tbey would have killed off the breed. It was the mean, thiev ish trifling dogs that gave a bad name to all tbe race, just as they do now. Cuvier says that dogs in general are the most contemptible of all do mestic animals, but the improved species are the most useful and com plete conquest ever made by man. All their faculties are adapted to profit and pleasure and protection. Barbarous nations owe much of their better nature to the possession of the dog. Cuvier says that the principal and best species are indigenous to cer tain countries. Such as the shep herd to Arabia, the Esquimaux and Newfoundland to Siberia, St. Ber nard to the Alps, etc. But dogs have got mixed and crossed into all sorts of forms and fashions, like the Cubans in Cuba. They now range from the little pug and rat terrier and bench-leg fice, up to the boar hound of Germany and the mastiff and drover's dog of southern Eu rope. Pointers aud setters and spaniels aud the long-eared hound have come in later by training and breeding, but most oi me different kind of dogs are degraded mongrels. But a dog is a dog and every man anu wy iu mo and -will defend him. 'Love me, ove my dog," is a proverb 350 years old. Alexander btepnens was asueu what was the secret of his attach ment to a dirty little snarling dog that followed him around. He re plied, "Well, I hardly know, but I reckon I love the little dog because he loves me." That was reason enough. He had neither wife nor children to love him, and so he con centrated on the dog, but still his friends thought he might have cho sen a more attractive one. The poorer a man is and the more friendless, the stronger in nis at tachment to his dog, and the dog seems to reciprocate and will not desert his master. A nigger's hound is as happy and contented as a fine lady's poodle. Pope says : "Lo! the poor Indian wJio.se untutored mind. . r.od in clouds ami hears Him in th wind. But thinks admitted to the heavenly skv. His faithful dog shall bear him compa ny." We have had but five dogs in fifty years at our house and they weFe all good dogs, faithful dogs and loved the children. Of course, I don't in clude tbe yaller pup that we had not long ago and were raising to take Laddie's place. He was an ig nominious fraud. He stole every thing that was in sight and in reach. One day the pantry door was left open and he carried off half of a boiled ham. He stole eggs and but ter and carried off hats and books and bonnets ann kept us continually alarmed. One day our old peach man, who lives sixteen miles away, came up with a load of fruit and l gently persuaded him that he needed a smart dog, so be tied him in his wagon and hauled him home. I asked him the other day how the purp was getting ou. "First rate," he said. "When I got him home that night I turned him loose and fed him, and the next morning he beat me up and run six chickens be fore breakfast and chawed on 'em. I give him a decent licking and re formed him. That night he followed the boys to the woods and caught a Opossum and he's gettin' to be a fine dog.' Heydident have room enough here in town to expand. As a gen eral rule women are not fond of dogs. They prefer cats. The dogs are in the way and take up too much room, and are always scratching for fleas and when bad weather comes they track up the house and want to lie by the fire. My old friend Foote told me that he and his old 'oman had lived to gether fifty-two years and there was never a cross word or a hard thought between them about any thing excepting dogs. "I was fond of dogs," said he, "and my wife de spised 'em and just as soon as they followed me into the house she would take the broom or something and maul 'em out, especially in muddy weather, for she was a powerful neat housekeeper and I wasn't." "How many dogs did you keep. Mr. Foote?" "Well, you soe in my younger days I was powerful fond of fox hunting and I kept four good fox dogs most of the time and then I had a squirrel dog and a rabbit dog and j 'possum dog and a pin ter. That's ! only eight. That's reasonable, I thought, but my wife didnt and she used to let me know it sometimes." But our good old dog is dead and we all miss him. Nobody ever struck him a lick, or had to say a cross word to him. He was a dog, but he was a gentleman in all his deportment. I wonder w.here I can get a good young dog to raise to take his place. The winter is coming on and as soon as the chicken thieves find out that Laddie is dead they will come prowl ing around. Higher education hasnt stopped the niggers from stealing chickens. Bill Ari Queerest of all Tombstones. In the old graveyard at Charles ton, S. C, stands among the stately marble monuments an old cedar bed stead, on one of the side boards of which is cut the inscription, "Mary Ann Luyten, died September 9, 1770, in the 27th year of her age." For more than a hundred years the old bedstead has resisted the attacks of the weather and its good condition to-day is a testimonial to the skill and honesty of its maker, who was also the husband of the woman over whose grave it stands. William Luy ten was a cabinetmaker, who came over from England in 1750. He pros pered "in his new home and fell in love with the beautiful Mary Ann Brewster, who loved him in return. Three days before the day set for the wedding Miss Brewster was thrown from her horse and made a paralyzed cripple for life. Luyten insisted, however, that they should be mar ried, though there was no posibility that his bride would ever be able to rise from her bed. For nine years she lingered, and before she died asked that the red cedar bed, which he had made and which she had so long occupied, should be placed above her grave. Pointed Paragraphs.

Within conservative limits there has been a fairly satisfactory volume of general business during the past week, but, as was to have been ex pected with the great coal strike still unsettled and important elec tions near at hand, there has been a continued absence of activity in practically all branches of trade. Although old stock of coal and mod erate weather have thus far mini mized the business disturbance and the inconvenience to consumers re sulting from the enforced shut down of the colleries, the danger of a coal famine will become more serious with each day's prolongation of the strike, and there is an earnest pub lic desire for a speedy adjustment of the differences which still delay its settlement. Other industries are fairly employed, although produc tive capacity in most of them is be ing taxed to its limit. Speculation lags in all directions. The price tendency has continued downward on cotton, breadstuffs and hog pro ducts:! but there have been few changes in values f manufactured goods, Business failures during the past week, according to R. G. Dun & Co., numbered 209 in the United .States and 26 in Canada, against 145 in this country and 20 in Canada during the corresponding week last year. Cotton prices have continued to tend sharply downward, and show a net decline for the week of 11-16 of a cent per pound in New lork and the equivalent of 3 of a cent per pound in Liverpool. Th price de pression has been due to large re ceipts, generally favorable weather for the crop and a tendency among factors to place reliance upon in creased crop estimates. Tbe pros pect of a larger yield than had been expected a few weeks ago and the ikelihood of a considerable decrease in consumption as the result of the comparatively high cost of raw ma terial and the stoppage of trade with China have greatly modified the bul lish views of speculators. Exports of the staple have been on a liberal scale and considerably in excess of the shipments for the corresponding week last year. While the fall in cotton prices has improved the sit uation for manufacturers whose sell ing prices had been unprofitable on the basis of the previous extreme cost of the raw staple, there has been little change in the attitude of sellers of cotton goods. Most ma kers have shown continued reserve about commitments for the future; and in some cases prices for imme diate deliver' have been further ad vanced I to J of a cent per yard. The business of the week, however, has been only moderate, as buyers have been encouraged by develop ments in the cotton markets to pur sue a waiting policy, for which ad ditional incentive has been found in the nearness of the elections. Weather conditions in the West have been more favorable for the drying, husking and cribbing of the new corn, and the favorable pro gress of the work of getting the new graia ready for market has had a tendency to increase the urgency of sellers on holding of old corn.
