AeaPanAbilitY-
There gore tWO WS Of training ehildren
14 Wane, 4i•n4 third way of letting them
grow up Without anygtreining whatever.
The two, Wats are training by preeept, and
training by example ; the former is good in
it§ kind, the latter better, but the best is by
hetla coinhined, Training by nreeept 18, of
enurse, far better than no training at all,
hut the reason it usually fails is thet ohild-,
ren .generally do just as mother does, 01'
father, too, for that matter. Therefore, a
eareless, slovenly housekeeper, ind one who
gives no evidenee of a sense of responsibility
to God or her neighbor, can hardly expect
to see her sons or her daughters grow up
late careful, wise and noble manhood and
womanhood.
If a newly married woman knows her
education in these matters has been neg-
lected, it is her solemn duty to make up at
once for that lack of training, so that when
she becomes the mother ,of children, and
because she is a wife and rutieh of her hus-
band's prosperity will depend on her co-
operation she shall not make others ettifer
for her shortcomings, but will be able both
by precept and example to train up her
children in the way they should go.
On reflection a sensible, newly -married
woman will realize the importance of the
position she has assumed, and of its probl
able,or at least possible., future solemn re-
sponsibilities, the rearing of young children
and the moulding of their lives temporal
etid spiritual. There is hardly a sadder
sight than that of a family of little children
growing up without moral or mental trebl-
ing, and consequently devoid of any special
sense of duty toward God or mau.
The woman who is satisfied with simply
giving her children good'food, good clothing,
and sleeping accommodations, and has no
other anxiety for her offspring, is scarcely a
good and wise mother ; indeed, to use plain
language, she is on but a little higher plane
than the brute mother, who bestows as much
care on her young as this implies, and who
even goes further, for that matter, for she
will most certainly instruct them in the best
methods of food getting and shelter and de-
fense of their lives, taking visible pains to
do her best in thus equipping them for their
future battle of life.
No the good and the wise mother is she
who:beside caring for their physical needs,
insures their mental and moral well-being
by proper training. It a woman finds her-
self lacking, and hence personally unfitted
for such training, she can most assuredly
teach herself, and certainly any woman
should be an apt 'pupil' to so interested a
teacher as herself. If her shortcomings on
sell -examination prove to be carelessness,
extravagance, idlenees, lack of system, un-
tidiness, love of gossip; proneness' to speak
thoughtlessly and unkindly of her friends
and neighbors, and to listen to scandal; un-
raindfuluese of the comforts an interests
of others, and a general lack of responsibili-
ty, self study and self discipline will be the
remedy.
The greatest aid to bringing about a per-
sonal reform will first be to establish a me-
thodical'system of. housekeeping; this will
give leisure for thought and. seli study, and
self study will lead to self training, which
will.gradually overcome all these failin,gs, or
any of them by which she is afflicted. When
this is accomplished, and it may be a work
of time, and not till then, will the woman
be in every sense of the word, a good wife,
and fit to assume the solemn responsibilities ,
of motherhood. From a home blessed with
such a mother will go forth wise and good
men and women to plant other blessed homes
and families.

berg, Miro Died 1111 CM,
An interesting account is given in some
German papers of the discovery a little time
age, hi the Cathedral of Worme, of the body
el a mediteval Bishop who has beat identilied
as Conrad de Sternberg, who died in 1154,
being a cotemporary ot our. Ilenry 11., aud
of the great German Emperor, Frederick
Barbaroesa. Dining the progress of some
restorations which are being carried out,in
the Cathedral, a stone coffin was fotind
deep under the floor of the choir, It was
closely cemented, and on its being opened in
presence of a special eounnission, the body
was found in perfect preservation, and ar-
rayed in vestments denoting Episcopal rank.
On the head is a low miter, the lower border
of which is formed by a baud of thick gold
embroidery, of a lozenge -shaped pattern;
the fillets of the miter are composed of the
same sort of work, with deep, heavy gold
fringes. The peaks of the miter have their
edges adorned by similar embroidery.
The alb and amice are made of thin linen,
very openly woven. The chasuble, of the
old bell shape, is made of a very thick twill-
ed silk, and falls in long folds around the
body, forming sort of pad round the neck.
In the usual way, a richly embroidered baud
runs perpendicularly down the front; it bus
no special design. The edges of the ;chasuble
are simply hemmed. The tunics under the
cha,sub,e are also of silk. The upper one is
of lighter texture; it shows a pattern con
sisting of lozenges connected by rays. The
under tunic shows a very fine interlacing
pattern of geometrical design. The stole is
worn crossed on the breast, the lower por-
tions being broader than the upper. Itsorna-
mentation is a pattern of scale -like design, !
which shows alternately figures of lions and !
birds set in a pattern of fine traced leaves.
The girdle is of silk, but only long and un-
twisted strands remain. The feet and legs
up to the knees are covered with silk stock-
ings which seem to be of a fine network tex-
ture. Three broad parallel bands and as'
many smeller ones are wound round in spir-
al fashion and fasten them.
The shoes, which come up above the I
ankle, and have two deep slits, are made of
gold brocade; they are ornamented by cir-
cular embroideries sewed on. The soles of :
the shoes are of leather. The pastoral staff
lies in the arms from the right shoulder to
left foot. It is of soft wood, ending with u
ferule and spike; at tbe top there is a spher-
ical ball of hammered bronze, out of which ,
issues a crook of soft wood, which ends mit
bronze lily set in a square Booker. At the
feet stands the chalice, also of soft wood, '
very finely turned; the cup is a hemisphere, '
and on it rests the patina.
Trees and Blizzards.
Prof. Chas. E. Bessey Writes as Follows:
7 -The blizzard in its purity and perfection
is a native of the plains of the North-West.
The name is now applied to severe storms in
the East, but the genuine blizzard never
leaves the treeless region of the Far West.

a member of the patty your correspendent
gathers the following story of their terrible
eEpelen
i;id ee
Thft: Benton at 7
o'clock Thursday
morning in a blinding snowstorm. It was
not then, however, very cold, but rapidly
grew older. They lost the road several
times, and made slow progress until nearly
nig.littall, when the horses became too much
exhuasted to proceed further with the eon-
veyanoe. The driver, Charles 8. Fox,
thought they were within five miles of
Twenty-eight 4uIe Spring, one of the stage
stations. it was here deoided te send the
two soldiers to the station with tne horses
for relief. They accordingly started, but
after making abont five miles one of the
horses gave out entirely and the other was
too badly used up to be of service. They
then tied the animals to a telegraph pole
and started off on foot. They had not gone
far when one of them sank powerless to the
ground. His companion, however, recogniz-
ing that certain death would be , his fate if
lett behind, literally dragged him the re-
mainingsdistance to the station. which proved
to be eve miles. Upon arrival at the
Spring they endeavored to organize a party
to return to the abandoned stage, but the
storm was raging with such fury that no
one could be found who would volunteer to
make the attempt until the afternoon of the
next day. In the meantime the driver and
Moutgomery, becoming alarmed at the non -
•arrival of assistance, determined to set out
to the Spring on foot. They wereth orough-
ly benumbed, and it was only with the
greatest exertion that they travelled a dis-
tance of about five miles, when they became
bewildered and nearly exhausted.
Realizing that they had lost their reckon-
ing, they Concluded to return to the stage.
When within a mile of their starting point,
Fax declared he would go no furtlier and
his companion left him staggering around
a telegraph pole and feebly beating it with
his hands to keep up circulation. Montgom-
ery struggled on and finally reached the
stage and fell over it utterly helpless. The
sun came out brightly soon afterwards and
he revived sufficiently to pull the robes about
him. When a rescuing party found Fox
he was still at the telegraph pole and eat-
ing snow. Montgomery was found at the
stage eating oats.
They had no food nor drink for thirty.
six hours, and the horrors of hunger and
thirst added to the terrors of the situation.
The benighted wanderers were taken to
the station, where they found that beyond
the serious frosting of there extremities
they were apparently in a condition to pro-
ceed on their journey, except Fox, the driver,
who was taken back to Benton for medical
assistance on account of the critical condi-
tion of his arms and limbs, which were badly
frozen. A.s soon as the storm had abated
the others resumed their journey, all suf-
fering severely from the terrible adventure,
and at noon Montgomery's mind began
to waver under the strain cf his terrible
experience and suffering. By night he was
totally insane and had to be tied to his
seat. He was taken to the hospital and
medical assistance summoned. His condi-
tion is very serious, but nothing definite
can yet be said of his ultimate recovery.
The other two men are not suffering great-
ly and are out on the streets.
nipping air—that is a blizzard. On the
plains the blizzard demon finds every crack
in the weather-noarding and every loose
joint in window and door, and through these
the snowflakes drive with a persistence
which 130011 piles up great masses of snow
within the house or barn. The cold blast
drives along the surface of the earth and
actually scours it as with a monstrous sand-
blast. I have seen plowed fields from which
the snow and fine earth had beenblown, un-
til they were left as clean as if they had
been swept by some giant's hesom. The
horizontal blast of freezing air filled with
frosty flakes, sweeping the face of the earth,
is characteristic of the. genuine blizzard.
I have been much Interested in watching
the effect of tree -planting upon the blizzards.
The blizzard drives along the surface of the
ground, and it has for ages upon ages found
no tree to halt or veer it. The settlers on
the plains planted trees, however, and
these trees now stand as obstacles to the full
sweep of the ice-lnden wind. A few days
ago, as a blizzard swept over the country, I
passed through a loosely -planted grove of
trees, cotton -woods, silver maples, green
ashes, etc., and noted with pleasure that
among the trees the violence of the wind
was greatly reduced, and the flakes of snow
dropped lazily to the ground, where they
rested as contentedly as if they had fallen
upon the tree -covered hills of Ontario. As
soon as I passed out of the grove I had to
face again the furious flakes, driving hori-
zontally in their mad career over the earth.
As often as I passed through a little grove
of trees, I found that I left the blizzard; but
as soon as I emerged from the sheltering
trees, the blast struck me again in all its
fury. This bit of experience is duplicated
thousands of times every day upon the
plains. The tree -planter has routed the
blizzard wherever he has set his little army
trees. Wherever a grove has come into ex-
istence there the blizzard's scepter has been
broken. True, he rules as fiercely as ever
outside of the groves, but as these enlarge
his dominion contracts. When once the
groves are approximately continuous, and
when once they have grown to greater
heights, the blizzard will be a thing of the
est. The settlers upon the plains need not
ear the bhzzard for more than a half dozen
years, if he calls to his aid the friendly cot-
ton -wood, maple, ash, and elm. They alone
can • h thie terror of the t ' .
Let every prairie settler's motto be "Trees
rather than blizzards."
Experimental Farm Ready For Operation.
A special Mail despatch from Ottawa
says :—The seed -testing department of the
Government Experimental Farm near this
city is now ready for work. Bulletin No.
I 1, just issued by Prof. Saunders, says of
t this department :—" It has been undertaken
for the purpose of determining the value of
the agricultural seeds which are sold to
1 farmers from year to Year, and to save them
from some of the losses to which they are
annually subject by using, old and inferior
seeds. Every farmer in Canada will have
the privilege and right to send to the Ex.
perimental Farm samples of any seeds of
which he may desire to know the germinat-
: ating power, and it is hoped that all will
avail themselves freely of the advantage
, offered. A suitable glass structure has been
erected for this work of a sufficient size to
. admit of the testing of a very large number
of samples at one time. The returns of the
germinating power of seeds will not be based
upon a single test, but every sample will be
tested in duplicate, once in the soil and
again out of the soil, in the most approved
form of apparatus devised for this purpose.
Small seeds will also be examined for im-
purities, such as sand, dust, foreign seeds,
. chaff, etc., and the proportion of these
•
give"Tilhe samples sent should be a fair aver-
age of the whole of the seed from which it
is taken. The quantities which should be
; forwarded will vary in proportion to the
• size of the seed. Of large seeds such as
corn, peas, wheat, barley, oats, etc., about
four ounces will be required, while of the
smaller seeds, such as grass, clover, turnip,
carrot, etc., from half an ounce to an ounce
• will be sufficient. The larger seeds may be
put into small cotton bags each marked
; with the name of the seed, and these smaller
bags enclosed in a larger canvas bag provid-
• ed with a tag on which the address may be
written. The smaller seeds may be folded
, in stout paper, each parcel marked and the
whole enolosed in a strong envelope. Pack-
ages and communications should be address-
ed: 'Experimental Farm, Ottawa, Canada.'
All mail matter will be carried free to and
from the Experimental Farm within the
limits of the general postal regulations as to
the size and weight of packages."

The Truth About Money.
A large income will purchase for a man
. the comfort, the tangible and intangible
good which a small income will not. Noth-
ingwill controvert this bald fact. Not all
• the preaching and philosophy in the world
can persuade a rational man that money is
, not a good thing, which will enable him to

choice of work In life, to procene skilled
physicians, luxuries'and change of air for
his wife when 'detbth threatens her, to holp
the poor, to forward the COA1SO of Christian-
ity, and, for himself, to rest for a brief space
' before he leaves thie beautifal world, to find
out what is in it beyond drudgery. There
. are high spiritual bleesings, no doubt, which
come to its through poverty; but the ex-
tremely stnall number of persons who volun-
tarily become hermits or paupers in these

in a French paper, which announced that
M, Lutist, Purisian, had died of tlyepepsia
after five days of heavy quail eating, Mr,
Paul Baia that he would cat one quail a day
for forty clays. A member of the Union

that Mr. Waloott had eaten two quail a day
for thirty days ti,t Gabe Case's. Mr, Paul at
once offered to eat two quail a day forfoety-

wager of $20,5 to $500 against a well-lsnown
physician, another bet of .0150 °Vett, another
of l$125 to $200 and still another of $100 to

about PO worth of new hats, neckties and

A few minutes after midnight Mr, Paul
sat clown at a table hi his oaf° with two

and I felt rather rocky. For the last four
days my skin has begun to smell of quail.
The legs are the gamiest part, and when a
man has oaten ell the quail that he really
cares for and must eat more, he revolts at
the legs. Another great difficulty is eating
at the same time every night. It worries
me a little. But take it all in all I find
very little trouble, and thy appetite is
simply bully. I have gained ten pounds in
weight. I drink lots of Worcestershire,
Tobasco and pepper sauces. In fact, I
drank a whole bottle of Tobasco sauce on a
wager of $25 the other night, and for $50 I
added another bottle. What do I attribute
my digestive _powers to? Well, simply to
the fact that I do not use tobacco or intoxi-
cating liquors. There is one very curious
effect that quail -eating bas had upon me.
I'm ohook full of phosphorus. When I go
in a dark room and blow my breath out
hard I can see a sort of luminous mist, just
as if I was the d—, that is, some sort of
a ghost.lfr.P
"aul has taken a Turkish bath three
times a week since he began his quail
match. Notwithstanding this his weight
has steadily increased. He claims that the
only serious effect of the quail -eating is in
his eyesight, which is affected
Earthquakes.
It is manifest that the initial impulse of
an earthquake must be due to some sudden ,
and violent origin. Various causes may be
conceived as possibly producing the shock.
For example when the roof of a subterranean
cavity collapses a concussion must be pro-
duced which may have the effect of an earth-
quake at the surface. In limestone coun-
tries, such as Carniola, the ground is honey-
combed with grottoes and passages, and
slight shocks of earthquake are of frequent
occurrence, due, no doubt, to the falling in
of some of these underground caverns. More
violent effects might arise from the collapse
of large emptied volcanic reservoirs, as
perhaps has occurred at the extinct volcano
of Ischia. Again rocks of the crust are in a
state of oontinuous strain due to various
causes, and especially to the gradual con-
traction that arises from the slow eooling of
the planet. From time to time there prob-
ably come moments when consequently they
snap asunder and read just themselves in a
new position of equilibrium. A slight dis.
location of this kind would undoubtedly set
in motion a series of earthquake waves that
might devastate the country far and wide,
while a more extensive fracture might pro-
duce such a catastrophe as man has never yet
witnessed. Such suddenruptures of rocks are
not impossibly the sources of the earthquake
shocks so frequently experienced in mountain
ous countries. Along the range of Alps, for
instance, subterranean disturbances are of
common occurrence, varying in force from
hardly perceptible tremors up toZsmart and
more or less destructive shocks. That
mountain chain has a long and most inter-
esting history, which takes us back to the
European continent. Instead of having been
produced by one primeval uplift, the
Alps have been upheaved again and again,
and during intervals of repose their crests
and declivities have been slowly warn down
as they still are to -day by Isom-, and ram,
springs and brooks, rivers and glaciers.
Yet the repose has only been comparative.
That intense crumpling and contortion, the
proofs ol which the tourist gazes at with
wonder along the mountain sides that plunge
down into the Lake of the Four Cantons
has left the rocks below in a state of etrain
from which relief is at intervals obtained by
a sudden snip or crack. Whether or not
any logical change of level May be apse-
ciable, either in the way of elevation or sub-
sidence, these subterranean tremors, "grow-
ing paths" we might call them, must be re-
garded as evidence that the building of the
Alps is not yet a complete process. Attain,
alone the oceanic borders of the continent,
ear quakes are of frequent occurrence.
Continents are areas that have been uprais-
ed ; oceans lie in basins that have sub-
sided. The tracts between these two re-
gions of opposite movement may not im-
probably be specially liable to be affected by
stresses, the sudden relief from which will
generate earthquakes.
