Dur - lug the attacks, the perspiration would stand in drops on my lace, and it was agony for me to make sufficient effort even to wbls. per. They carne suddenly, at any hour of the day or night, lasting from thirty minutes to ball a day, leaving as suddenly; but, for several days after, I was quite* pros- trated and sore. Sometimes the attacks were almost daily, then less frequent. After about tour years of this suffering, I was taken down with bilious typhoid fever, and when I began to recover, I had the worst attack of my old trouble l ever experienced. At the first of the fever, my mother gave me Ayer's Pills, my doctor recommending them as being better than anything he could prepare. I continued taking these Pills, and'so great was the benefit derived that during nearly thirty years I have had but one attack of my former trouble, which yielded readily to the same remedy." °AYER'S PILLS Prepared by t1r.

In my last article on Public Schools I had referred especially to rural schools, but there is reason for be- lieving town and city schools are furnished in many cases, with teachers, who are as poorly, If not more poorly paid, even than in the country. Aspirants to the positions of Teach- ers! Did you stop to consider your acts? Some of you tried to usurp established teachers, by offering to do it for less. Base act ! Others offer for $1(i less than the lowest, Low act 1 Others of you again would teach for $109.12&, Light the fires, sweep floors, scrub, clean stove -pipes, &e., besides paint gate, mow Yawn, everything, in fact, except haul the wood, and of course you could not he expected to do that. (not having a team nor the prospects of one). Comical act! Did you stop to think of all the care and toil, wear and worry you were undertaking? That you are driving your superiors from the arena by your narrowness of soul? That your own penurious acts will drive you to penury and a pauper's grave in "Potter's field"? Did you not rush into deep water without inquiring if you could swim? Are you sure your assets will meet your liabilities Dec. 31st, 1895. ? You must be a model in taste. neat- ness, cleanliness, &c., in fact you should he well dressed every day, and especially so on Sunday. If you are not, complaint from pupils and rate- payers will soon he heard about the teacher's shabby dress. You must take a hoarding house if you are riot married (and we have reasons to hope you never shall be) un- less like Montaigne, you have some more fruitful source of revenue, i, e. provided you are a reale. If you are a female, (and I say it with due respect for the sex) get. niarried to the first honest, industrious man who proposes, provided you love him. Do not think from this that I wish to exclude the gentle sex from the teaching profession ; far from it. Many, very many, of the hest teachers in Ontario to -day are women. I aur proud of them, and only regret that they are not, in every case, recom- pensed equally with males, for the amount and quality of work one. For the young ladies then, I have noticed a possible outlet, or means of escape tram the profession and its pri- vations. Therefore I turn for a mo- ment to the mare cheapiete. Yon are doubtless better at figures than I (your position demands it), there- fore I ask you to help me solve a little mathematical problem. Total income of the teacher of your class $200. I must deny you all the luxuries o f life, and give you only the bare neces- saries; excuse me for doing this. • Expense—Board, $&5; washing, $15; church, one-tenth income, $20; 1 dress suit, $20; 1 wearing suit, $12,50; 1 het, $2; 1 cap, $3; 2 pair shoes at $2.25, $4.50; 1 pair rashers, 60c.; 1 pair overshoes, $1.40; 2 suits under- wear, • $3; 4 shirts at $1 each, $4; 1 half dozen collars, $1.25; 3 neck- ties; at 35e., 1.05; 1 dozen white hand- kerchiefs, $1; 4 pair socks at 30c., $1.20; school books and helps, $10; 1 educa- tional journal, $1.50; 1 Toronto paper, fweekl-y,) $1; 1 Intal paper, $1; station- ary, ink, pencils, &e., $5; 2 eeacher''s conventions, including train fares, fees, and all expenses, $10; statute labor. $1; 12 hair -cuts n•t 15c., $1.80; total ex- pense, $206,80; total income, $2(X); loss and gain, $6.80 206.80. How long, at this rate before you can retire or take a higher course of training ? The al-ove items do not include such luxuries as mitts, gloves, lectures, en- terta nments, &c., nor a watch, which is a necessity. It also precludes all train or stage fares from home to s=chool and vice versa, so you must needs walk. An overcoat is also a luxury you must forego unless you wear your old one. While i despise the action of such deluded teachers, I pi;,y their condition. Those who flatter themselves in having : little larger salary count your net gain for 1895 only, lest at the end of that time a cheaper class of cheapish+ usurp you. I speak now fromanalogy. Parents, ts exist, andnlynkat it can t,tafford twit?ate afafYair Teachers, honored and esteemed pillars, earnest and enthusiastic in your noble work, do yon not feel humiliated by these degenerating influences to your educational sphere.

The Diphtheritic Serum—Counterfeit Prsseotments••Applylug Nature's Laws —improvements cat Ooaan Travel—Re. nulls ot Hypnotism, Eta ; •mss, The news gathered from all quarters that the use of serum for diphtheria is proving marvelously effective in every part of the world, says "The Saturday Review. The ordinary mortality In Great Britain averages about 82 per cent. In the thirty-six cases which have been reported during the last tures months by private physicians in The British Medical Journal, the mortality has been reduced by the use of the seruni to 5 per cent. What this means may be estimated from the fact that the deaths from diphtheria in England alone in twenty-five years have amounted to 97,000. Under the new system of treat- ment it seems likely that they will be reduced to not more than 860, and possibly less. For diphtheria spreads by contagion from mouth to mouth, and the new serum has the power, not only of exerting this magnificent curative in- fluence over the disease when estab- fished, but of rendering those who surround the patient immune frorn the poison. Ica other words, it is not only curative, but, like vaccination against smallpox, it is also preventive. So great is the demand for the remedy that it is at the present moment practically not procurable in this country, and we hear of practitioners anxiously rushing about to obtain one single dose for their dying relatives. It has been found that it is by the vaccination of horses, and the use of the serum thus obtainable, that the best supplies can be procured. The process is slow and costly, and it may be some months before an adequate supply is obtainable. Municipalities and governments are vying with each other all over the continent of Europe in al- lowing large grants of money for fur- nishing such supplies. The fleet Photographs The three-quarter photographs which we leave behind at the present day, faked up by the photographer's art, will be useless to the men of the future as records to tell what manner of people we were, says S. S. Buckman in The Nineteenth Century. With lapse of time, the widening of the family circle and the various incidents of workday life, it is doubtful it these pictures will be regarded with any reverence or affection by our posterity from a merely sentimental point of view. But this would he changed if photographs were, as shou'd be all photographs which aim to give a true picture of the face, taken just tar.) ways, profile and full face. They would thus be of scientific value, and even a dilletanto scientific amateur of the future would esteem a family col- lection as something of interest for the lessons in evolution or anthropology it might teach. The want of such photo- graphs at the present day makes it ex- tremely difficult to impress upon the layman or to prove to the scientist how much people change facially during life. Three-quarter views give but a feeble idea of the development. Nothing is more remarkable shah pt comparison of - the same sized profile views of the same person at 6 and 30 years of age; ,the growth of the nose and the develop- ment of the forehead are so great that the jaws appear to have diminished in size, and this is really what the jaws have done in proportion to the whole face. Ancient Methwarts. The ancients, while excelling in po- litical science and in literature, were woefully deficient in a knowledge of the laws of nature and their application in human affairs. That it should be so is easily understood because. according to the historian, Rankine, it was both an ancient and medieval belief that there is a double system of natural laws, one theoretical, geometrical, rarional, discoverable by contemplation, applica- ble to celestial, etherial, indostructiblo bodies, and being an object of the noble and liberal arts; the other practical, mechanical, empirical, discoverable by experience, applicable to terrestrial, gross, indestructible bodies, and being an object of what were once called the vulgar and sordid arts. Tho inechan- ical knowledge and practical skill of Archimedes, which rendered him so illustrious, were by men of learning, his contemporaries and successors, regarded as accomplishments of an inferior order, to:which the philosopher,from the height of geometrical abstr'ation, condescended with a view to the service of the State. The Steerage Passage To -day an emigrant in one - of our great Atlantic steamers makes the voy- age under sanitary conditions greatly superior to those he enjoys at home, said Sir William Forwood before the Sanitary Institute at Liverpool. The steerages are lofty and well ventilated by movable cowls and electric tarns, and abundantly lighted by large side ports by day and by the electric light by night; the beds and bedding are scrupu- lously clean, the bedding is supplied by the shipowner, and is (lever used for a second voyage; ample seat and table accommodation for meals is provided, and each compartment is furnished with a pantry and hot and cold water, under the care of a special attendant ; on deck a spacious promenade is available to the emigrant under a shelter deck, where he can take exercise in all weather; the sanitary arrangements are excellent; his food is well cooked and without stint as to quantity, and for his midday meal he has always soup, fresh meat and vegetables. The ship doctor has ample hospital accommoda- tion at his commend. and is furnished with a complete dispensary and surgery. Rrp Ism. "Hypnotized subjects lose their will power because they are dominated by the thought, will and suggestion of an- other and they cannot rise higher in moral sentiment than that which actu- ates or inspires the hypnotizer," says Dr. Wm. M. McLanry. `Inasmuch as persons of rare accomplishments, good mind and intellect, may be held under the hypnotic influences of persons every way inferior to them and without being aware that they are so influenced, is to be deplored by everyone devoted to the welfare and development of our race. 1 believe from my own observation of cases persons may become insane or idi- otic by the poreistence of hypnotic sug- gestion. The 'general tendency of hypnotism is to lower the moral tone. Accustomed occupations become odious; the nearest and dearest friends become objects of indifference or aversion." THE LATEST IN CYCLING. A Ontltornla Wheelman Who Has Adapt. ed His wheel to ,the Railroad Track. J. W. Ritchey, a modest citizen of California, is speeding over railroad tracks on his own safety bicycle at the comfortable gait of twenty miles an hour and butter. The means by which Ritchey has adapted the familiar roadster to the gauge of a railway are as follows: He has attached a four -inch flanged wheel. shaped exactly like a large spool, to a rod in front of the hind wheel, and a similar one on an arm projecting about three feet in front. In addition to this, an eighteen -inch wheel, at the end of a rod so arranged as not to interfere with the working of the pedals, runs on the other rail. In this way the machines is perfectly balanced, and all the rider has to do is to work the pedals in the usual way. A patent for the improvement has been applied for, and the outlook is that before long semi -deserted passen- ger trains will' be followed by an end- less procession of ''bikes," on which idle conductors and despairing news agents will gaze helplessly from the rear plat- form. In order to nut the improved machine to a thorough practical test, ;.he inven- tor recently left the city for a trip to El Paso, Tex. At the end of the second day he reached Bakersfield in Kern County no more fatigued than if he had traveled in a Pullman coach. "I found it easy to make 20 miles an hour," he said,when discussing the trip. "and with very little extra work could have averaged 15." He found it a good plan to travel in the wake of a train, be- cause the latter served as a convenient windbreak. One incident of the trip is of especial interest for it determined the quer• tion raised by the irate railroad com- pany of the right to use its roadbed by Ritchey and his prospective imitators. It occurred at Fresno. where he war) arrested on a charge of trespassing. The decision of the superior judge who heard the case was that a person on wheels had the same right to ride on the track as a pedestrian, whereupon the traveler was discharged and hurried ori so as to overtake the train ahead of him, which had got a little start. But while Ritchey may be congratu- lated as being the pioneer, iu this cram, - try, of track traveling on a safely bi- cycle, and while the dream of local cyclists, reale and female, may, during the coining winter, image countless ex- cursions between the oceans, candor compels the statement that the Ritchey is not the first ot its kind. For many months past a machine, similarly con- ceived, has been in use by the Russian police force, and if the reports that have reached this country are correct it is even more simple in design than that which bore the intrepid Ritchey across the southern country. For its adapta- tion to the rails is effected by tha addi- tion of a solitary eight -inch wheel, fluted and attached to a rod which can be fastened to the forepart of the bicycle. The machine is not by any means popu- lar in Russia, nor is it ever likely to bo - come so. Its use is confined by law to members of the military pclice whose duty it is to precede imperial trains and to remove frorn the track dynamite bombs and other evidences of affection for the Czar.

The Star Systems, The internal heat of the earth 18 sup- posed to he the result of a thermody11a- mic transformation by which the energy of aggregation in the days of chaos was converted and stored as hent in the slowly forming arid now cooling mass, says Professor Robert If. Thurston. The heat of the sun and of all the stars is presumed to have had similar origin, and the formation of the universe with its nebular, its comets, its countless sys- tems ot unmeasured stars and infinity of satellites, our own little sun and its at- tendants included, was very probably the grandest of illustrations of the con- version of the energy of the fall of inde- finitely dispersed mists of myriad forms of matter toward their common center of gravity, and the production of light and heat of every grade by the collision of atom with at gregation of particlem, of molicule with molicule, the ag with particle, tli'e impact of meteorite with meteorite, and the crash of world upon world, during the eternity of pre- paration, resulting finally in the con- struction of the star systems and the solarstems as we now t k ey now them.
