Tll features of yJMteldii.v' sessions of the teachers' Institutethe over shadowing features were the leetutes mi poyoluiloKy h.V Prof. K. I.. Kemp, prinulpul of Host Stroudsbtirg Normal School. No more Intensely interesting talks have been hoard nl tin Inslllu o In Cnrboitdulo than these lectures, made doubly valuable because of tin IitJou tlon In ono wny or another or the fruits of Prof. Kemp's wldo eijueutlonul ex perience. Ills side observations, his ' timely comments mid his pleasing humor wen; tho elements that so hap pllv combined to make his talks worthy of the undivided attention and hearty co-operation of the teacher,". , Prof. Kemp's lecture were so lined with repeated discussions of topics that suggested themselves as hi; proceeded "that their real value Is lost when trans ferred to type. Some of the observa tions, however, will he read with in terest by others than the teachers, to whom. only. It might he said, tht tech nical features are ot value. At the forenoon session, la discussing 'The Kxtcrnal Conditions to Atten tion," Prof. Kemp, unions: his obser vations or expressions of opinion, said: The man cannot net independently of the body. Anyone who says so, says what Is sheer nonsense. Mental activ ity Is dependent upon physical condi tion; the brnlu function In mental ac tion depends upon the supply of blood and the quality of it. "Young children are as sensitive to the weather as animals. We. teachers, are guilty of the pedagogical sin ot becoming cross at children who under certain weather condition.-! im rest lessly active, depressed or languid. AVe Vhould have such control of ourselves and should have that enthusiasm which would III! the room with sunshine if none come from without. "The teacher's health and disposition are factors In attention. When we are not well and things don't seem to go the right way, we blame it onto the children. "There should be a state law com-. pelllng teachers to take sufllcicnt exer cise. The nature study is one of the greatest blessings in recent school life, for It gives us the. greatest opporuniiles of exercise and relaxation that is the most beneficial because of its ever changing novelty. "The school work in Pennsylvania is not yet highly organized. The work is not in harmony. Some of the students who come to normal schools llnd that they have already gone through the junior work in the High school. This produces a lack of Interest, because ul' mi abseuco of novelty. I have taught In two Normal school.1: and know that this has greatly interfered with the progress or these students. The injury was shown in results for a. long time. "Teachers are the most consei vatlvo among all professions. It takes several hundred years In some cases to get a proposition in our minds. "The author of the text-book on physiology sin? when he uses the illus tration of the telegiaph system to show thu workings of the ivrvous system. Thu Intricacies of the telegraph system are harder to penetrate than the understanding of the nervous system if the arrangement of the nerves be explained. This text-book Illustration is stuff and nonsense chiefly. "The ability to ask questions Is one of tlie tine arts of teaching. "When I went to college the students kueiv just what questions each would got. Tills system has changed some what, but If any ono still follows it, remember that tills giving eut-and- drieil questions cuts attention to pieces. "The ability to teach is measured by ability to' do good woik with your mIu dents with ralrly good material, "Nluc'teriths of the lustiness among pupils is not due to a lack of enthusi asm; R is not a willful fault, but it disease, a misfortune, that should ex cite nnd receive our warmest sympathy. "We (hid that the girls In our Nor mal schools do more work now, be cause they weigh more mid are In belter health. Before, the state oliloluls divided the ijourse, girls used to work tlicm.elves Into shadows studying and fretting over examinations. Jn Urn last year, they would havo to qualify In ubottl twenty-live studies. This left them without any vital energy, Within a few years special gymnastics have been added. Among those Is basket ball. Tlie result of this athletic Idea Is belter woik, because tlie girl students havo hem built up In health and have a greater store or energy. "Tlie Individual test of cyeslaht Is necessary among pupils, as weak vision Is a big drawback to the pupil, whose defect cannot ho ascertained In any other way, since he won't admit It. "Tlie secret of the growth In friend ship Is not so much what you do for your friend as what he does for you. This -applies to the lelatlons of the teacher and her pupils. "Perhaps, one of the greatest tilings accomplished In pyschology Is that physicians have given us one of the greatest marvels In modern knowledge In locating with dellnlteuess the nerve centres of the brain." In the afternoon lecture, Prof, Kemp gave an Interesting explanation of per ceptions and sensations from the psy chological sense, demonstrating that all qualities are sensations, the effect produced In the brain centers. Miss Hugarly gave two lectures on reading, and Miss Hyde addressed the teachers In the forenoon and afternoon on "Kngllsh." The institute will close at noon to day.

Made by nn Arabian Shepherd. I'offee was first dl.-coveiod in tile sixth century by an Arabian shepherd who having observed the goats of his Hock skip about and display other signs of Intoxication after eating the cof fee barry, concluded to tiy Us effects c n himself, and thus discovered its t xuihirullng property. This discovery proved the poor shep hcid't. undoing, for he Indlserimlnaie lj used largo iiuuntltlfj:, green, fur Us i xhilatating effect and soon died, poisoned by its use. In the sixteenth century, It was iutio dueed into Kruiicc, and was used s.o strong and excessively, particularly by the Parisians that it was found to In jure alike the complexion and digestion. Tills discovery prevented Its general in troduction into other Kuropenn coun tries for the next century. Since that period, Its growth has gradually .-.pread through the civilized world, despite thu fact thai pain ami destruction follow its path, dyspepsia having been hardly known before Its Introduction. Jt is a "nerve stimulant" and narcotic poison, and though in no .sense a food, )s used for lis stimulat ing principle, Caffeine, which excites the nerves unuUJurully and wastes tlie leservo force i)f tlie" body. Coffee drives the nerves for a time, stimulating- them beyond, their uatural' function, and using up till their reserve force. After the first Affects are past, comes breaking down of the nt-rvo centres and general nervou.OleWnkumoui.

Well-Known Erie Engineer in a Low Condition A .Shock Received While Crossing Starucca Trestle in His Engine Hastened the Crisis in His Ailment. It will be depre.-sing news to the wide circle of friends of Engineer George Hliss, of Washington place, that he is in an almost dying- condition from a nervous trouble, which has so involved his general health that his recovery is despaired of. Mr. Bliss, who has been suffering from an Impairment of his nervous sys tem for several months, readied a crisis in his condition a. few weeks ago by an occurrence while making ills customary run on the Jefferson branch of the Ei. While his engine was creeping over the trestle at Starucca, which is being filled in, the frame work suddenly sank. The disturbance caused the engine to agi tate and sway as if It were to topple over. The fear that the locomotive was going to dash him to n terrible fate was too great for Hliss to shake off and he collapsed. After returning to his homo in this city, lie grew alarmingly worse and has continued to loose In en ergy and strength. The ailment from vhlohhe suffered took a fatal turn with this happening on the trestle and his life seems to be slowly ebbing. Despite all the skill and aid or physicians and heroic; treatment. The sad condition of Mr. llllfts, who Is exceedingly popular among railroad men In this vicinity, and enjoys the warmest friendships of a wide acquaint ance, will be generally deplored. ONE OF THE BEST. Talks on "Ruskln's Message to the Twentieth Century. The llev. Dr. Dwlghl Illllls, who has n national reputation, visited Carbon dale last evening for the llrst time us put guest, and delivered at the Grand ids lecture, "Uttskln's Message to the Twentieth Century," before the largest audience that has attended the teach ers' lnstlhtto lecture course. This was the llnal number of the successful en terprise. Dr. Illllls has a good presence and a pleasing voice, even though It strikes one us being somewhat hlgh-pltchcd, ilo speaks with a rapidity that would make an expert stenographer sttr him self to keep up with the remarkably ready flow or words. Ills pulpit ex perience Is present iu his method ot dellverv. To Ruskln's Influence Dr. Illllls cred ited six of the eight great social re forms or the last half century. Ho was the llrst to establish the moral obli gation of wealth and poverty by giving all that he possessed, nearly two mill ions ot dollars, the milts of hla toll, to the poor, finally taking tip his abode in Wliltechnpel, in London. Ritskln was the man who went over to the honfo of art and from the marble palaces took back the great collection of the beautiful In art, bestowed' them among the iioor, brightened their homes and made possible that the poorest child In this land can today have, for u cent, copies or the great masterpieces that Queen KllzabPth cotild not obtuln. It was rtusklu who founded the college settlements, the university extension project and the establishment of read ing libraries over several nations. He diffused the beautiful and the useful among the poor, and through these means of education was u factor In the great fruits ot progress that we are now enjoying. Dr. Hlllls' lecture was most compre hensive and was lately enjoyable for its satire ami wit and bright bumoi, be sides Its beauty of rhetoric. It wnp a fitting close to a splendid lecture course that the ptibllc-splrltedness or Superin tendent Garr provided for Carbondall nns at a nominal cost, just sufficient to meet tlie expenses.
