t One anecdote relates how,
seeing the judge shake his head at
some observation of his, he turned
to the jury, exclaiming, "Gentle-
men, those who are unfamiliar with.
his Lordship might imagine from
the motion of his head, that he in-
tended to express disapprobation,
but I can assure you from long ex-
perience that when his Lordship
shakes his head there's nothing in
it."
On another occasion,seeing Lord.
Clare caress a Newfoundland dog
while he was arguing before him,
Curran immediately paused in his
argument.
"Go on, Mr. Curran," said the
judge.
"Oh," replied. Curran, indicating.
the dog, "I thought your Lord-
ships were in consultation.
DESIGNED FOR THE STEEPLE !
Some of his jests would now be
thought 'strangely in bad taste, as
when, appearing with a very tall
junior, he observed, "With me, my
Lord, is Mr. —, who I believe was
intended for the `Church, though I
must say that Nature seems to have
designed him for the steeple."'
The alibi has come in for its fax
share of jests. Sir Henry'Hawkins.
relates iii his reminiscences how he
once found the following in , his

"If the case
r
fore 3.15, the defence.' is left to the.
ingenuity of the counsel; if after
that hour,, the defence' is an. alibi,
as by then the usual alibi witnesses
will have returned. from Norwich,
where they are present profession-
ally engaged."
There have been few readier men
in retort than the late Mr. Francis
wald, of "Oswald on Contempt of
oust." After a stiff breeze in a
Chancery court, the .judge snapped
out, "Well, I can't teach you man-
ners, Mr. Oswald."
"That is so, M'Lud, .that is so,"
replied the imperturbable one. On
another occasion, an irascible judge
observed, "If you say another
word, Mr. Oswald, Ill commit
you." "That raises another point—
as to your Lordship's power to con -
mit' counsel engaged in arguing. be-
fore .you," was the cool answer.

Device That Will Hake Railway Ae-
eiacnts Impossible.
Almost incredible are the possi-
bilities attaching to an invention
that has nearly been completed and
which will make railroad accidents
practically impossible. Since the
first demonstration of the "railo-
phone," which renders possible
telephonic communication with a
railway train in motion, was given
about a year ago, the inventor, Mr.
von Kramer, . has made great
strides. In conjunction with Pro-
fessor Kapp, of : Birmingham (Eng-
land) University;he has evolved a
sensitive detector, • by means of
which, he states, "it is possible to
pick up those feeble currents which
are receivedby the train and to
lay them up into stronger currents
to operate electric` bells or hooters,
or even to put on the 'brakes of train
or to stop them at the will of the
signalman at the station." Thus a
signalman 10 or 20 ):Hiles away may
press a button and the train stops
automatically. Another feature of
the railophone is that trains equip-
pedwwith it can automatically bring
back their signals to the danger
position if they have been inadver-
tently'left open by the sagnalman,
and as any such forgetfulness is re-
eorded at the time it occurs, -.thein
strument settles the question of
who is to blame if a driver passes a
signal which should be against him.

now Montessori schools in Boston
and New York.
At first the children entertain
themselves with toys :selected to ap-
peal to the senses of touch and
sight. Meanwhile the teacher
makesa careful study of the pecu-
liarities of each pupil, but does not
attempt any actual discipline.
Indeed, children are in the
"House of Childhood" sometimes
for several weeks before any real
lessons are given them. They are
required, however, to be tidy in
their persons and in their dress.
Now, all children love to dabble in
water, particularly when soap
p
plays a part in the game; in t
Montessori schools, under judicious
guidance, the washing of the hands
and face becomes, even with the
youngest, a cleaning process.
Doctor Montessori uses light
gymnastics to give the little . ones
command of their limbs• and to
bring about the proper co-ordina-
tion of their muscles, but the gym-
nastic exercises continue only a few

house cares, that is, the arrange
went of tables and the washing of
dishes,—and then building, with
blocks 'and the matching of Tors.
The first of the tactile exercises—
the one that eventually leads to
writing—is carried on by means of
rough and smooth paper. The child
is taught to distinguish between
rough and smooth by having his
hands drawn first over one surface
and then over the other. Then the
child has its fingers brought into
coned with squares of cloth ; that
is, with yielding surfaces. Next,
the child receives wooden tablets in
order that he may learn to discri-
minate between the weights of two
different objects. Then the pupil
has geometrical forms in metal,
which he places on paper and the
outlines of which he. traces with a
colored crayon. These outlines he
fills in with color. This last exer-
cise Doctor Montessori regards as
of the greatest importance, for it
Mins the fingers to direct the pen-
cil or crayon.
When the child's sense of touch
has thus been actually developed,
he receives an alphabet, each letter
of which is mounted on a separate
piece of sandpaper. He traces the
outline of each letter with his .fin-
,gers as it is pronounced by the
teacher. The sound of each letter
becomes so strongly .associated with
the muscular movements necessary
to produce it that when he hears a
word spoken of which the fetters
are known to him, 'his fingers in-
stinctively make the, motions that
they have so often made in tracing
the sandpaper alphabet. If he has
a crayon in his hand the'record be-
comes visible, and he begins to
write.
proceeded: "He turned round to

when I tell you that about 10,000
tons of stone fell. Had it not been

buried alive. I owe my life to that
Shetland pony. Instead of licking
my pony because he didn't go on,
when I saw what happened I jumped

A wise doctor tries to give nature
its best chance by saving the little
strength of the already exhausted
patient, and building up wasted
energy with simple but powerful
nourishment.
"Five years ago," writes a doc-
tor, "I commenced to use Postum
in my own family instead of coffee."
(It's a well-known fact than tea is
just as injurious as coffee because it
contains caffeine, the sarste drug
found in coffee.) "I was so well
pleased with the results that I had

anteeing its sale.
"1 then commenced to recommend
it to my patients in place of eoffee,
as a nutritious beverage. The con-
sequenceis every ,store in town is
now .selling it, as it has become a
household necessity in many homes.
"I'm sure I prescribe Postum as
often as any one remedy in the
Materia Medica --in almost every
case of indigestion) and nervousness
I treat, and with the best results.
"When I once introduee it into a
family, it is quite sure to, remain.
I shall continue to use it and pres-
cribe -it in families where I prac-
tice.

Little commonplace matterse are
so very often lost sight of in the

only way to make a drinkable 'cup

the education of most, and yet it is
a thing which every man, woman,
or child should know how to elo ear

an eel' benware teapot should be
used. elver, plated, . co per, and

other metal vessels do not seem to
possess the virtues of making a real
good cup of tea. Then, of course,
the pot must be scrupulously clean.

ocoasionally to place soda. in the
boiling water used for the washing
of this utensil. Before putting on
the tea—one teaspoonful for each
person and one for the pot—the
latter must be heated with hot wa-
ter. Then freshwater must be
brought to the boil, and poured on
the tea, without lifting the kettle
from the fire.
