THE COLUMBIAN, BLOOMSBURG, PA. UETH0D3 OF F1UMAKT READING. XI. Tho Burnz Phonollo Method. tV WFLt.tAM NOETl.INO. ' hi an mr nt in mrinnii m s r Eliza Boardman Burn, Principal of the New York School o Phonography. This, the latest of the phonetic methods, was published in 1892. Ih author in speaking of her little book, ThclStep-By Step Primer, says it " is so arranged that a little child or a foreigner can learn to read from it easily, through analogy and by the use of reason. The pronunciation of each word is shown on the printed face without at all changing the com nion spelling. "Letters, of course, are arbitrary signs, Dut wnen their powers are once learned they should furnish the key to pronunciation, this we know they do not do in ordinary Lnglish books. One reason is because the twenty-six letters are not sufficient in number to denote the forty or more separate, elementary sounds which compose the words oi the spoken language, Another reason is, that the twenty-six letters are not used with consistency. 1 he vowel letters have from three to seven sounds each, and interchange those sounds, and both are often silont. Prof. Martencau says : 1 Learn ing to read English is the most dim cult 01 numan attainments; and it is undoubtedly so, if learning to spell is taicen into account. i ne step-isy atep rnrncr essays to do the best that can be done at present. It takes as a basis the Anglo American alphabet of forty-two let ters, or combinations of letters, each of which denotes an elementary sound -f.i-i . 01 me language, ivery sound has a definite representation, and no letter or combination of letters, in the same position, denotes more than one sound. " Since the short vowel sounds oc cur much more frequently than the long, in English words, the letters which denote the short are unmarked. An unmarked vowel letter always denotes its short or ' second ' sound. This plan reduces the number of marked letters to a minimum. The short sounds occur in the words first shown in the Primer words that the child most frequently uses therefore no markings are required at the begin ring ot study, ine tew necessary connecting words can be pronounced by the tencher or learned by the ' word method ' until the lesson which gives their sound is reached " When letters in a printed word are silent that is, really useless they are put in hair line tyie. If a letter is perversely ued, its true sound is indicated by a small type placed Oelow, and the pupil gives its sound instead of that of the more prominent letter : or, though rarely, the false letter is set in a different tvpe, and the true letter or letters put in par . enthesis at the end of the word. Oc casionally, the whole word is respelled. phonetically, and placed in parenthe ses. " In the Step-By Step Primer pho netic truth is presented to guide and encourage, " Instruction in reading should be begun by showing the object, or pic ture of the object, which is represent ed by the subject word. Converse about it. Mention four ways in which a person can let another know what he or she is thinking of. First, by showing the object ; second, by show ing a picture of the object : third, by speaking the name of the object ; lourth, by usina marks, called letters, which stand for the sounds of the spoken word." As well observed in the foregoing explanations, (1) the short vowel sounds are not marked, this reduces the number of diacritical marks; (a) the silent letters are printed in hair line type (3) where a letter does not nave its usual sound, a small letter representing the correct sound; is printed below it and, in som; cases. above it. Thus, a small a is put under me a and a small z under the s, in ay, and the y is in hair line type. The method is recommended by leading scholars and educators. Dr, vm. 1. Harris says: "It seems to me that your device, if adopted, would prove of great utility." Prof. F. A. March, of Lafayette College, says: "Your Step By Step Pronouncing Primer is certainly an excellent book to teach the beginning of reading. I hope to see it in the list of supplies for the New York Public Schools." Melvil Dewey, Secretary of the University of the State of New York says: "I shall look for remarkably good results in teaching reading with mis primer." Fred. A. Fernald, Editor of Our Language, expresses his opinion as follows : No more valuable book than this for elementary education las anneared for mjnv vears. There is no reformed spelling in it, nd there is not a trace of ' cranki ness ' in it from cover to cover." Mara L. Pratt, M. D., author and ex-teacher, Maiden Mass., says: "If 1 were still teaching, how I should seize upon these -books. It seems to me you have got at the substance of the Pollard System without its burden f encumbrances. Alex. Hamilton, M. D., ex teacher, s.i ys: I know of not ntu ..v,,.v uui oi none so good yours."

The czars of Russia are necessarily lauusis to a large extent, for they are firm believers in the divine right, and hold the conscientious belief that they are the creatures of providence and have been placed upon the throne by a supreme being to subserve his ends, This feeling, added to the great nerve and physical courage of the Roman off family, its characteristic indomi table will and huge physical propor lions, has made the Russian rulers anything but cowards. At the same time they have naturally realized the presence ot enemies so deadly, so secret, so stealthy and so patient, that they have ever taken precautions for their own safety, and no czar would recklessly tempt death by going abroad without a proper escort and guard Alexander HI, saw his father blown to pieces, his own life had been saved a dozen times by accidents which he termed miracles, and it was but natu ral that he should defeat his enemies if possible. But he was not a coward and did not live in constant fear of his life. He transacted the business of his government, worked hard and late, and when his labors were over devoted a portion of his time to his family. Because he was to so great an extent a fatalist, when his time came I have no doubt that he thanked God for the fact that he was warned and was allowed to die a peaceful death.

Neglected colds in the head almost invariably precede catarrh causing an excessive How 01 mucus, and if the mucus discharge becomes interrupted the disagreeable results of catarrh will follow, such as bad breath severe pain across foiehead and about the eyes, a roaring and buzzing sound in the ears and oftentimes a very offensive discharge. Ely's Cream Balm is the acknowledged cure for these troubles. FINDING HIS MATE. One day, driving the missing horse's mate, he went to a stable where horses were sold at auction. As he was arm ing up to it, but still some distance awav. his horse grew uneasy and gave a loud whinny, which a moment after was answered bv a whinny from the stable. " My horse is in that stable !j exclaimed the man. He got out of his wagon, went in, and there to be sure was his stolen horse. The animals seemed overjoyed to meet each other, whinnied back and forth, rubbed each other's necks, and indulged in all the demonstrations of equine affection Now, how do you suppose the horse outside knew that his mate was inside that stable ? Was it scent, or instinct finer than that with which human be ings are endowed ? We cannot tell. Christian Jiegister. Chinese Officials to be Executed.
