MONTREAL LIVE STOCK MARKETS
The offerings of live stock at the East -
end market Monday morning were 600
cattle, 1,000 sheep, 1,000 lambs and 25
calves. There was a large attendance of
buyers:'and now that the cold weather has
set in butchers showed a better disposition
to take hold, consequently the demand for
,the best beeves was good, and a more active
trade was transacted in this class of cattle,
but common and inferior stook were plenti-
ful, and moved slow. There was a better
stone to the market, but price° showed no
iimprovement over last Thursday, the best
'beeves selling at 3j• to 34o, and lower grades
to 20 per pound. The supply of
'sheep and lambs was large, there being ful-
ly 2,000 head, and as there was no demand
dor export account a number were left over
unsold. The demand from butchers was
fair, and mien of sheep were made at 2 to
2io per pound, and lambs at 3 to 3ic per
pound, live weight. Calves were scarce,
but ae the quality was not very good priz;ee
did not run high, those on the market
being bought np at $3 to $10 each as to
.size.

AGONIZING, TRANSFIXING PAIN.
The most excruciating pain known is per.
'haps canoed by Angina Pectoris, which is
most to be dreaded of any of the diseases
of the heart. It dietinguiehes itself espe-
cially by pain, and by pain which is best
described as agonizing. The pain literally
• transfixes the patient , generally radiating
'from the heart to the left shoulder and
-down the arm. The fade shows the pic-

Efleots Must be Taught 1n the Pub ie
Schools.
Stabs Superintendent Charles R. Skin-
ner, of the department of public instruc-
tion, has issued an official interpretation
of the law mooted by the last legislature,
providing for study of the nature and ef-
fects of alcoholic drinks and other nar-
cotics, in oonneotion with physiology and
hygiene,
whioh wentPnto effect Augustto1,e
w
law,ublic it
appears, has not been fully underetood by
all the teachers and superintendents of
schools. Numerous enquiries as to what
should be done have been received at the
offiioe of the department of pnblio instruc-
tion in Albany. In anewer Mr. Skinner
says the subject embraces tobacco in all
its forms and opium, morphine, coffee,
tea and all mixtures into whioh aloohol or
any other narootio enters. It shall be
taught as thoroughly as arithmetic, gram-
mar, geography, reading, writing and
spelling or any other subject prescribed in
the course of study. The length of each
lesson mast be determined by the local
school authorities, and should be of suffi-
cient length to insure snob instruction as
will prepare pupils to pass required testa
Superintendent Skinner also directs that
the course of study mast be arranged for
each grade in every school below the sec-
ond year of the high school, and as al
pupils cannot read equally well, the
provides that text books shall be graded
the capacities of primary, intermediate and
high school pupils. Teachers must also
give oral" instruotion four times a week
for ten weeks to all pupils who cannot
read. The new law says particularly that
"no teacher shall be licensed who has not
passed a satisfactory examination on the
subject and the best methods of teaching
it." Mr. Skinner says that his provision
re-enacts and emphasizes one of the wise
requirements of the law/of 1884, whioh has
been strictly enforced. One of the most
important questions, about which a great
deal of uneasiness has been felt by the
teachers and school superintendents, is
that one whioh refers to the payment of
state school moneys. The law is very em-
phatic. It says that "no state school
money shall be paid for the benefit of any
ietriot, pity, normal or other sohool until
the officer or board having jurisdiotion
and supervision of each school has Bled
with the officer whose duty it is in each
case to disburse the state school money for
each school an affidavit made by such ofll-
er, or by the president or secretary of each
hoard, that he has made thorough investi-
anon as to the facts, and that to the best
f his knowledge, information and belief
11 the provisions of this Act have been
Milt -icily complied with during the pre-
ceding school year," This law took effect
ngnst 1, yet the letter of the law cannot
e complied with, inasmuch as the appor-
onment of state school moneys is made
different times and by different methods.
A striot oonetruotion of the law," says
uperintendent Skinner, 'would require
rmal schools, teachers' training classes
d teachers' institutes to comply with
1 the provisions of the aot, including
e requirements of tho first section, but
is is manifestly impossible. Normal
Imola could not comply with that section
thont employing more teachers and pur-
asing more books, for whioh no appro-
riation bas been made. To deprive them
pabilo money would close them. There -
ore, presidents of normal school boards,
trnotore of teachers' training clauses
d conductors of teachers' institutes will
required onoo eaoh year after July 81,
96, to make affidavit only that 'adequate
e and attention have been given to in -
notion In the beat methods of teaching
s branch during tho preceding year.'
ese afildavits will be made to the state
erintendent of public instruction."

Stunted by Coffee Drinking,
Some roapectable statisticians hold that
the strong marked tendency of the in-
habitants of Saxony to become dwarfed
in stature Is in a great measure one of
the mischievous results of over -indulg-
ence in so-called coffee, whioh . in the
families of the poorer classes is drunk
from early morn tb dewy eve, and is a
subeitute for tea, soup, flesh meat, des-
sert, eta, like the miraculous manna of
the ancient Hebrews. The etuff employ-
ed in Saxony, whioh plays euoh havoc
with the nation, has, of oonrse, little,
or nothing, In common with the beans
of Mocha, whose jellifying effects upon
the nnenspiotone goats that chewed
them first drew the attention of Mahom-
etan monks to the wonderful properties
of the berry.
