MANITOBA LETTER.

To the Editor of the Clinton .New Era

ago, said a Man to me the °Om clo,y,

Went to plowing among the shocks,
removing theca as they came to them,
We among the rest. And now let me
say a little respacting the -climate of
this cOlIntrYI it agrees with Inc nobly I
assure you so far. I don't know that
I ever felt better in my life than I do
at the present time; respecting my old.
complaint, cough and asthma, I have
never been. troubled with either of
them since they left me last spring
soon after I came to the country, neither
have I ailed with anything else, nor
taken any medicine of any kind what-
ever so far, so the climate agrees with
with me. Many thanks to Dr Gunn,
of Clinton, and everyone else, who in
any way advised me for my good, and
now let me say to all who are troubled
as I was, if you do not believe my re-
port, come and try it for yourselves.
Mrs Docking is a great deal better also,
but cannot stand the cold weather as
I do, so she does not like the country
so well, but I think itshe had as warm
a house to live in as shehad in Holmes-
ville it would make a great difference
to it. The most of our houses in Mani-
toba are built of logs, and are not so
warm and comfortable as the Ontario
hones generally. It is true there are
some frame houses here, and eome of
other material, but they are few and far
between. And nowlet me say without
boasting, I have been very busy this
summer, since the seed was sown last
spring, I plowed and broke up nearly
25 acres of new land, then helped to
cut and. stack about 40 tons of hay,
then drove the binder to cut 120 acres
of wheat, oats and barley, then helped
my son George to stack and thresh
the same, and do fall plowing, since
threshing was done we moved to an-
other farm for next year, where we
have more room and a better house to
live in, which will make things more
homelike. Now it is past the middle
of January, and there has been no
thaw yet Of any kind, but the snow is
dry and getting deeper all the time,'
and the cold getting sharper and sharp-
er every day since January begun, I
don't know how low the thermometer
is, but it must be a long way below
zero, I think it is a little colder than
Ontario, but very dry and steady,
every day the same. Yours truly,
R. DOCKING.
[We hope Mr Docking will continue
his interesting letters from time to
time.—Ed. NEW ERA.]
• DEAR SIR.—Will you please allow
. me a little space in your paper for an-
%, other letter tor the benefit of my many
friends and your numerous readers,
especially so as more than one has de-
sired it. I have long been thinking of
doing so, but have delayed writing
until 'threshing is done. I am aware
. there are many different accounts of
Manitoba in the Ontario papers, such
as two feet of snow long ago, when
there was not enough to whiten the
ground; and Manitoba is all frozen up,
and the Fain all spoilt by frost, but no
such thing, there are millions of bus-
hels of very good wheat in Manitoba
yet, and much more that is frosted,
but still will make good flour for gen-
eral use; this I know from what fsee
in bur own neighborhood, and many a
man has far more grain, and a better
sample .than he thought he had, before
he theshed it. The -harvest has not
come up to our expectation according
to the appearance back in the summer,
. for it had the appearance of an abun-
dant harvest. -I think, however, we
should thark God and take care of
what we have, for when I see hundreds
of acres not cut at all, Or cut and tied
' and the sheaves lying over theillelds

The "Ideal" in Education.
(Continued)
Is the ideal set before us attainable? No,
and yes. If it be asked is it attainable in
its completeness, the answer is no; if, how-
ever, it be asked, is it attainable in mea-
sure, the answer is yes. Should the teach-
er be discouraged from striving after the
attainment of this ideal, because he knows
he can never absolutely attain it? Cer-
tainly not. As well may the preacher
cease to hold up, as our example, the per-
fect character of Jesus Christ, because he
knows that, in this life,we will never attain
to it, and that, perhaps, he will never live
to see any great measure of approach to it
in our character. Just as the ages hold in
their obscure treasury the ideal form of so-
olety as an organized body of human indi-
viduals, so the life of the individual, viewed
in its totallity, holds within it the possi-
bility of the ideal man. Let no weak faith

for nearly two years from rheumatic
gout, being able to walk only with great

ment in a Chicago paper that a man had

Ayerts1 ,Elarsaparina. I then decided to

.&. Stark, Nashua, N. H.
writes: "One year ago I was taken 11
with rhteumatisra, being confined to my
house six menthe. I came out of the
eickness very much debilitated, islth no
appetite, and my system disordered in
every way. I commenced to use Ayer's
Sarsaparilla and began to improve at
once, gaining in strength and soon re-
covering my usual health. I cannot say
too much in -waists of this well-known
medicine."
"I have taken a great deal of medi-
cine, but nothing has done me BO
much good as Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I
felt its beneficial effects before I had
quite finished one bottle, and I can
freely testify that it is the hest blood -

Woodland, Texas.
The ohieffeature of a ohurchyarala Clin-
ton comity, 111., is a large marble tomb-
stone ereoted by Farmer John Wise over
the grave of his wife. The inscription is
brief, conveying the information that the
tombstone was erected in memory of Sarah
Jane Wise, " sib wastalked to Oath byher
friends." •
The deceased Mrs Wise had many
friends and acquaintances, and this
inscription has given them a great deal
of pain. Delicate hints have been con-
veyed to the bereaved husband that
they did not regard themselves partic-
ularly flattered by it, and they would
esteem it simple justice if he would re-
move it. Farmer Wise entertains
strong views on the matter hintself,
and he has abruptly broken off all
negotiations. The aggrieved friends
then organized themselves into a SQ,
ciety, the purpose of which Was to re-
move the offending tombstone. 110
Wise heard of this and served formai
notice on the members of the organi-
zation that the tombstone had been
erectedby his order, paid for by his
money, 'and he would "011 with lead"
any person who wonld interfere With
it in any way. The boded y, organized
for destruction„ haa not been precipi-
tous in .that directiotr%ince learning
that Farmer Witte/ was organized
that way himself. Therefore, up
to date, the tombstone still stands,
a memorial to the late Mrs. Wise and a
rebuke to her friends, who, in imperish-
able marble, are accused of talking her
to death.
There is no doubt there is much
notification for the inscription. Sick
persons are too often the victims of
over -solicitous friends. While they
may not often be literally talked to
death, there is no doubt that recovery
is frequently retarded by thoughtless
persons turning the sick chamber into
a reception room, and making every
day a reception day. At all events,
Farmer Wise, who is evidently a man
of few words himself, takes this view
of it.

'•• break up -40 or 50 acres easily in one must be considered singly; but in the pro -
summer, hence he will soon have as cess of education they should proceed sim-
ultaneously, with varying emphasis, ac-
cording to the stage in the process, and
according to the special requirements of
individual cases. As a healthy . physical
organism is the necessary foundation of a
vigorous mental and moral life, physical
culture is of prime importance In education.
Especially is this the case in towns and
cities, where tbere is little necessity for
engaging in physical exercise at home,
In countiy schools the mere requirement
of exercise may be safely left to home life
and home duties. But there is another
standpoint from which physical culture
may be viewed. It is not sufficient that
the body be ordinarily healthy for a perfect
manhood; it should be a trained servant of
the will, prompt and vigorous in obeying
the will. There should be cultivation of
the manly habit. There is no reason why
any man or woman, with ordinary good
health, should be a nerveless, spiritless,
drooping creature. For both men and wo-
men, a graceful and vigorous habit of body
is essential to the highest success in life.
Such a habit is conducive to cheerfulness
and comfort, renders its .possessor at ease
in society, and vastly inoreases his influ.
ence over others. This, to some extent,
may be secured by gymnastic, drill and
calisthenic exercises. But these all have -
the serious defect that they lack spontanei-
ty. The will is always under control of
another, so that the bodily movements are
in obedience to the will of another, rather
than directly and spontaneously in obedi-
ence to the will itself. They are nseful,
however, in cultivating the habit of prompt
and orderly obedience to commands—a
very important part of education. The
beet form of physical exercise is that which
simultanenusly calls forth all the powers of
mind, body and soul, with emphasis on
bodily powers. In this respect the English
Resident Schools are worthy of imitation.
Football and cricket afford exercise to the
body and social intercourse at the same
time. With us, foot ball, cricket, base ball
and lacrosse for boys, with lawn tennis for
girls, serve the purpose of cultivating a
vigorous physique, and at the same time
oultivating the power of patient resistance
and forbearance under opposition. No one
will deny that this trait of character is
very serviceable in the struggle of life. To
educate men and women for society, we
must educate them in society. Men and
women will learn patience and forbearance
in opposing others, only by enduring oppo-
sition. The spirit of honest, friendly rival-
ry gives tone to a school, as it does to larger
social institutions. Ever k school, if pro-
perly equipped, will afford means of recrea-
tion of this character, for both boys and
girls. We now have base ball grounds and
foot ball campuses for the boys, why not
tennis courts for the girls? Surely it is
time some form of agreeable physical ex-
ercise was provided for girls! It may be
urged as an objeotion to this demand, that
home life supplies this requisite exercise
for girls. To a favored few it does, but for
the great mass of those at tending our High
Schools and Collegiate Institutes, no such
privilege exists. And, even were such op-
portunities enjoyed at home, it le almost

but a great many sow more than they
• can take off in proper time, they de-
pend upon getting help, but leave it
too long and get none, then to get

hence a great waste in more ways than
one. The harvest is a great deal later
coming in here than in Ontario, especi-
• allythis year, and most people are
anxious to get all the fall plowing
done they can, (for fall plowing an-
swers best) so many leave the harvest
• partly alone, and stick to the plow un-
til the snow falls, and winter comes,
then they turn to finishing up the har-
vest, and make their stacks with the
sleigh. This I have seen already a
good many places this fall, and it
hardly looks like what I have been
used to. Well I think I said in the first
part of this letter I delayed writing un-
til threshing was over to see how it
would yield, so it is done, and does not
come up to my expectation quite for I
anticipated getting 1500 bushels or
more for my share, but it only comes
up to about 1300 bushels. Our wheat
was not so bad on the whole, No. 1,
hard, some frosted a little( and about
100 badly frosted. Then our late
threshing affected the prices badly al-
so, for as soon as navigation closed the
prices of grain went down considerable
here in Manitoba, the C. P. R. having
it all their own way, for want of opposi-
tion. The most we have made so far
for wheat is 60 cts per bushel, it was
from 75 to 80 cts per bushel for best
Ruality early in the season, but not
since navigation closed. I think that
a farmer can make money as fast here,
rowing wheat and selling it at about
4)0 or 70 cts per bushel, as he can in
Ontario for one dollar per bushel, for
there is not so much labor nor expeuse
•here to do so, there is no need of sum-
mer -fallowing nor manuring the land,
but just plow and sow and reap, and
if -a favorable year for the crop you
will get about 30 or perhaps 40 bushels
er acre generally. And now about
the weather; well so far it has been
. more like Ontario than I had expected
it, and they all say unusual for here.
The most difference I find here is that
the winter has settled in with no wat-
er in the ditches or creeks nor any-
where except the wells, and some of
them are verylow, just a little snow
about 0 or 8 inches deep, on a solid
frozen trottom, which makes a good
road immediately. We had what they,
call a blizzard on the 4th and 5th of
Deeember last, Which was rather nasty
for the time, but not very cold; I have
seen many a storm as bad in Ontario,
and suffered as much there as here, if
the winter is not harder to come than
what is past I think I can stand it all
right. We plowed up to the 20th of
November and had very fine weather.

A prominent banker of Chicago, who
has been in the habit of giving freely
to charities, in order to learn, if pos-
sible, what proportion of collected
funds went to out -of -work and needy
individuals, dressed himself like a men-
dicant and in company with a number
of bona fide in hard luck men, applied
to the different leading charities for
aid. The result of the tour was, so it
is reported; that he gave to his unfor-
timate companions what assistance
they stood in need of, doffed his rags
and is out in a manifesto declaring
that it is his opinion, now well-ground-
ed, that the bulk of available funds
goes to pay salaries of the officers of
societies and a minimum proportion
reaches the needy ones.
Of the Hon. Alexander McKenzie, who
was 70 years of age on Thursday, Mr Mow-
at said:—"He is a man of exceptional abil-
ity, of sound judgment, of true patriotism,
and whose • life, public and private, has
been pure. Now that physical infirmities
prevent his taking so prominent a part in
public affairs as formerly, his very enemies
have aoknowledged his virtues. The gen-
eral sentiment is now that while Premier
he discharged his duties faithfully, and in
Opposition he has been a model for all °th-
ere. He takes the some interest in public
affairs as he has ever done, is as desirous
for the public good, and as anxious to be of
service. It is a pleasure also to know it is
the earnest desire of his colleagues and his
co -leaders that he should continue among
them. He is still a power in public affairs,
his presence is invaluable, and his counsel is
constantly sought."

Some tobaccos spurt up in the pipe
while smoking, with little crackling ex-
plosions. This is caused by the addition
of foreign matter to assist the combustion.
When the purity of the tobacco is not tam-
pered with and it has been properly taken
care of, this combustible foreign matter is
wholly unnecessary. For in that ease it
burns at a lower temperature than almost
anything else. Nothing of this kind is seen
in smoking the "Myrtle Navy." It burns
