THE 017LTI7BE OP,INPANOT
It ia-saying too little- when tvo_ittlirm
thaf the.greatest care should be exercised
in the cilumtion'of children.. The Great
Teacher has said. in, (anguag,e so strong .
t'hat it could not be stronger, "Except ye
become.as little children ye shall. net en
ter into the kingdom of 'heat:en,7l Are
these words. mere 'rhetoric? 'Whet will
ilenl that there is a depth of; meaning`
here, equahto , the,impertance of
,the sub
ject? Borne'sage older 'than Socrate's
grai?ed on.tse temple of Eferplri the sentiZ
meat, " 7Crsistt thyself" Whit this
knowing self is,' the great Nazirin/de- .
d ared, when to 'called:attic chikl/te him
and said, " Whosoever shall offend sue of
these little ones, it were I bette'r '4:or him
that a millstone were tauged alif,aut his
neck, and that he were : Ifdrcrsned - in the
depth of the.sea:''
If, then, children are' of such great im
.portence, how -neccisary is it that.the
feather should be/armed with the most
peifect preparation; and the best and
rObst,appropriate instruction; b) offer to
theie little ones.
'Children/are constant's , ' preparing for
Coming life. Sometimes the boy is a
farmer, his chair a ploW, another 'chai
his horse; he utters his commands'with
:dr.the authority Of manhood. Perhaps
3latnie's doll is sick, Johnnies spat for,
and with Papa's hat,and' cand o he comes
along with the ravity.of Esculapiuk him
self, Ofid-,admhilsters his powders of. sand
and flour; while, Marnie's c4interiance as
sumes atmost maternal anxiety and dis
tress. • A few blVcs and a box constitute
a railroad traiu—aiid. in ail\ the plays
of childhood the eve faculty is ex
tremely active. -TlifnisPosition of mind

tion of childrem•
Josh pillings says, ,7 .‘f Would. you train
up a chi l in the way,

that way once in a yourself;" good
adv . lce, especially to Pose who are con
tinually trying children as they
would grown-up people.
Education; the . harmonious develop
ment of all the powtts of the mind. Sup
poke — agardener should prune a trek with•
the exceptioji_of one limb; or a farmer
persist. In raising but one . thing. year
after year, it is 'evident they would not
succeed.. Is'it not equally absurd to per
sist in Cult-hkatOg only ono of the pOwers
of the min in childhood, excluding all
`the rest? It is certain 'some faculties
may be perfectly developed in childhood,
•
and . among thin is .attention: Things
high, losi-; soft, hard; hot, cold; near and
far, are noticed. It'soon learriS,theiuses
of things, as chair, cradle,
.broom, hat,
door, and a multitude of others. . •

World openitn ide,al one. It.soon letiT
to step from what it can see to what it
cannot see; from what •it sees with. the
evey to what it sees 'the mind.
Healthy childhood is. active, restless,
.ini l pidsive, devoid of reason,'. full of pag
sion, eager for something new, loving
Stories, confiding, and even detcaing
humbugs with the ipticknesNif thought.,
There ale two themies relating;- - to the
education of childien,, One is they should
do nothing improper for Oldev persons to
do : They should tif (inlet, Walk slowly,
never ask questiohs,:, always go to church,
keep awake while listening to a king ser
mon as incomprehetisible 'to . them as
atin. They must -be made to do just
what they don't wartt to do.: The boy
must, go tcLeollege; his tastes must not be_
consulted; he must stay a ,profession
even thottgli be lts‘no love or fitneits for
it. This is one theory.
The other declares that acli . i\lt 's habits
should be studied, that God hak,..mqtle
him just as he ought to be made. If he
wants to play let hitn play ? if Le wanti; to
laugh, - let him; let hini
,dump,' kick up liis
heels, yell like a wild Indian, stand up
for his rights, 'and ktowing. :dare main
tain what he knows.• It directs the im
pulses of hii nature, curbing here, prun
ing there, but in all things letting his
God-given nature, exactly fitted for God's
intended work, have itsfull play. a
lit jrhinirig childhood nature must be
followed. We must make our schools
centres of mind culture, just as our gar
dens are centres of plant;tulture.

EDUCATION A CURE FOR STRIKES
.
When the time - co Mes that bitVlligent
and honest minds govern the settlement
of questions of trade and eorunieree, all
sudden panics in business wilLbeavoided.
Mad ignOtance destroyed, 'in three days,
seven millions of property lipPittsburg
whick;an educated common leaser would
have saved.
We have nourished and broil - gilt up this
hot-headed ignorance, and it llas rebelled
against,us. I%'o have sown the wind and .
reaPed the whirlwind. Now it is very
1 , 14in-tobe , seen that this ignorance 'Will
be our ruin unless we either educate and
enlighten, or govern .
A — knowledge of what the labot4pg
man's rights are, is the result of 'educa
tion.: Because a man's hands are licirny
with toil, does not give us thereby.a right
to reduce his wages: The men who mine
out Coal and nun' ur railroad trains, havii
rights, just as sacred to them,l as Presi-
Oent, Hayes' are to him. But if the em
ployer 'is so° ignorant as to violate the
rightS of those Whom he etpplOys, the em
ployed are not thereby
. juitified in violat
ing the rights of.the employer.. One
wrong .never makes another wrong right,
nor, does it mike burdens less easy to
bear. .f`
The work of the world must -be done,
and only 'education can teach us how it
may be accomplished most efficiently,
with the least waste and the greatest ease:
tk vast amount of unnecessary work is
done. Education will show us how it
may be echnomized, how the burden of
toil may belifted from the workers and
the burden of IN+ from the
. capitalist.
It was benighted ign6rance that led th;
diristiah State of Minnesota.tO repudiate
the payment of her legal debts. The
. iiicople voted down the proposition to pay
the State bonds because there is a large
foreigikelement Which has never been ed
ucated to know the force of legal obliga
tions. Because their agents - have proved
dishonest-to <them, does not justify the
people hi being unjust to those who gavt
them the money. • -
The moral element could control the
towns, but the ruiners 'rejected honesty
by a large majority. Education teaches
:::•tuirttat there-is the least daniter and the
le:l,st . injustice on -the, side- of taw. even
though its oeeratiOn may be very oppres
sive-to us. It also shows_ us -that capital
is not the euetny • but the friend of the
working man. How can Wages, be paid
unleis there is money with which to pay
them, .
Unchain the tigers of te.struction,, and
the millions lost will surely come hack
upon the people in almiost unbinrable
taiths. The eel may bear up under the \
b4den, but,l4 the-incani-liine, what is to , ,

count of their sins. Will. somebody tell
us'how to teach morality without roll- .
gion ? Is religion a hideous monster of
the-ghostly ages, whose presence is in
voked to frighten children and imbeciles
into inbriiission?
A president of a New England college
recently stated that "in his institution,
Christianity had been there inculcated in
a way to hurt no one's feelings." Now,
the truth is, that Unless - the teaching of
true religion does'
~fiurt somebody's feel- •
ings,.it is of that ssmilkAnd-,water type
that is of no great value to anybody.. We
