Let the patrons and especially the parents visit the school, become acquainted with the teachers and co-operate with them in the teaching of their children in every way they can.

The time an American girl puts In at painting, pyrography, cookery, rid ing and golf tho Brazllena devotes to shooting a needle threaded with a harsh strand of linen back and forth through the corners of tho sheets nnd pillow cases and towels with which she is going to furnish her future household. Sometimes she works out her whole first name, but usually only a fanciful scroll work of Initials in the form of a monogram. No superficial, laundry mark kind of work is this, but a sub stantial basrcliof, which rears Itself from a quarter to half an Inch from the supporting fabric and waits as maliciously as the stlngarce In the mud or the nettle In the thicket for some one to rub against It. I had been warned not to be alarmed at any night prowling Insect or animal which might enter my open room tho first time I slept In a Bra zilian bed, and so took it quite coolly when 1 rolled over upon a sharp toothed monogram, thinking It was nothing moro than a vampire bat or perhaps my shoe. When on another occasion I slept all night with tho last three letters of the "Dolores" of my pillow case sinking Into my cheek, to follow It the next morning by rasping tho wholo length of tho name on a towel across the nbralsed place, I must con fess to being slightly annoyed. Do lores, Augusta or even Maria In three Inch letters do not leave a great deal of room for absorptive purposes on a piece of one by throe linen, and tho novice will find It safer until he has learned to take up the moisture with little dabs to carry his own towels. If a bed must be occupied the mon ogram on tho sheet may be rendered more or less Innocuous by hunting It down before you turn In and tuck ing It under the mattress. Careful manipulation will occasionally also dispose of the danger zone on the pil low." Light on Tuberculosis. Trudeau's classic experiment points us In the right direction. After inoc ulating a number of rabbits with tu berculosis ho confined a number of them Indoors and turned the others outdoor. Tho latter all recovered, while tho former all died. Medical Record.
