Chautauqua of Age.
In the midst of all that is on the
country this summer. including con-
gress, it is cheerful to know that such
an institution as the Chautauqua sunr
mar school can yet exist and flourish,
and that it celebrates its twenty-first
birthday by giving promise of continu-
ingat least 21 years more. If all the
rest of the people of this country were
like the Chautauquans, there would be
no strikes and certainly no violence.
Perhaps next year they will add to thuir
course of instruction a careful study
into the nature and prevention of strikes.
Any study in our time is little worth
unless it takes the direction of seeking
practical measures for the making of
this life better and happier.
Chautauqua was established primarily
101‘ the purpose of giving a summer rest
to people who are supposed to fit mor-
tals especially for the life to come——
namely, Sunday school teachers and
other church workers. The. fact is now
evident to ministers of the gospel that
in no way can mankind be so well pre-
pared for the life to mmo as by bcing
fitted perfectly for this life. It was Syd-
ney Smith who wrote:
You will live well there if you live well here.
lcnn say no more though I talk for a yc;.r.
The brain of Rev. J. I'l. Vincent and
the purse of Mr. Lewis Miller of Akron,
0., evolved the Chautauqua summer
school. which has grown so great. In
1873 the seed was pluntcd upon an old
Methodist camp meeting ground at Lake
Chautauqua 1t sprouted and spread all
over the Union and through Canada,
and the idea has been taken up and
elaborated in tho univcristyextension
course of (lrcat Britain. Chautauqua
students are numbered by the hundred
thousand, counting in those that belong
to the circlcs for home study. The
merely aacrud literature which consti-
tinted the first courso of study has been
extended till it includes cvcrythng
known to man and woman, including

Present day conditions show that the

A curious phase of slavery and anti
slavery laws before the war is developed
in Helen Gardener‘s last book, “A11 Un-
official Patriot.” The hero is a Virginia
slave owner. He is convinced that the
patriarchal institution is wrong, and he
wishes to free his negroes. But the laws
of Virginia will not let frecdmen remain
in the state. He preynres to migrate with
them to a free state, Indiana. But when
he reaches the borders of Indiana he finds,
to his consternation, that the laws of this
state also forbid the bringing thither of
any free ncgrocs. The tlifiiculties that
beset slave owners who wanted to free
their property Were not always appre-
ciated by the old fashioned abolitionists.

Senator Morgan spoke fitly of the as-
sassination of Carnot when he said the
news of it was “the saddest announce-
ment that could be made to the Amcri~
can people in regard to any event out

king would have. filled the nation with
horror, but not with the profound grief
that the taking off of tho president of
our sister republic did.
It will be a surprise to most people to
learn that last year, in spite of the low
price of domestic cotton, the New Eng-
‘land mills manufactured not less than
$8,000,000 Worth of imported Egyptian
cotton. It llllluulilt‘tl to 00,000 American

Egyptian cotton is of superior quality
and is exactly adaptel for certain textile

The supreme Court of Alabama is in a
shocking state theologically. It ren-
dered a recent decision that a bequest
left for the punioso of offering masses
for the soul of the testator after his
death was void. The ground taken was
that there is no living beneficiary of the
trust endeavored to be created, “the
soul not being an entity in the law."
This is dreadful. It shows that the law
does not recognize the immortality of
the soul, and that therefore the legal
mind must be an absolute blank on this
subject. The cstnblishIIIcIIt of a mis-

Various remnants of the old Pnritaulo
way of thinking and doing still survive
among us. and notable among them is
the heroic method of dealing with chil-
dren, and of trying to make their lives
conform to the standard which in its
day eliminated all but the eoundest and
strongest from any sort of life. This is
seen, as often as is any other form, in
the way the mother will have all her
children out of bed at a given early
hour, regardless of eyes still full of sleep.
or little limbs not yet quits over their
weeriness, of the faint answers and
long lingerings alter a second call,
either because she likes to have her fam-
ily breakfast together, or wants to make
one piece of work of it, or has a notion
that early rising is good for the health.
Each of these reasons is a good reason.
Certainly it is pleasant, conducive to
good cheer and family life, to have all
the household breakfast at once; and
quite as certainly it adds to the heavi-
ness of the house-work very materially
if there are stragglers at the morning
meal. and one breakfast has to be served
after another, while of course early to
bed and early to rise is a saying not with-
out truth in relation to making one
healthy, wealthy and wise.
But there are always the circumstancts
which alter cases. The stout and hearty
who went to sleep with the birds can ef-
ford to get up with the birds; his body,
his brain, his nerves. have all bad the
rest they need in the long sweet hours
of slumber, and if he does not respond to
the call he is possibly a sluggnrd whose
fault must be amended.
But the mother will do well to make
sure of the fact that be has in reality had
all the sleep he needs before she wakes
him with an imperative summons. If he
is not a stout and healthy child it is not
certain that he has slept well, for both
restless nerves and indigestion have a
part to play in the night, if there is no
other more potent trouble. And if he is
an excitable child, precocious or studious,
then, the hours of sleep being the only
ones in which the brain repairs Its loss
and hurt, it is a matter of vital moment
that those hours should have their full
number. An old physician, of long
practice and great wisdom, used to say
that slight ailment often did good if it
obliged the patient to go to bed a few
days, as he gained thereby the rest of the
bed for the whole body, which was often
of essential benefit. And of quite as
much benefit is this same rest~ths aban-
don, the prostrate position, the lifting
and holding of every portion of the frame
by the bed—to the growing form and
tired muscles of the romping child. who
with his natural impatience for daylight
and its new pleasures, is really unlikely
to take any too much of It.~—l1ar.p»r'e
