Very interesting work was given this afternoon on the subject c f “The English Language" by Prof Holland, in which he said: “Familiarity breeds contempt, yet it is well to be familiar with the origin of words. So the professor took the institute on an imaginary trip to the east of the Hytnila mountains, where probably our language was first used by the Aryans. Tae Ayrans became restless and imigrated apart going to India, and others making their way to Europe He then spoke of the divisions of the Eurcp'an branches of the tongu’.

’ word. Why do we study words) 1 I Becauae. a person cannot be the I most effective teacher without I knowin g the origin of most words If a person is careful, in a few years bis language will be excellen’. I And tn a few years good words like good swords will win ” Rest "Artists and artisans ’ Prof. . Stalker began his discourse by saying that one's education is one. sided if It does not appreciate beauty, and the underlying principle of beauty is truth. No great production of art can come without truth, and any production of art is good only in-the degree that it represents truth. For the artist first gets the truth and second be desires to tell it. Third he selects the simplest form io express it. and fourth he executes the wort. Now in or-' der to appreciate the work of art w i must have the truth ot our own that is portrayed by the artist A good method to teach an appreciation of beauty is to choose the best grounds for the school build- , ing; the building should be the best of architecture; decoration should be gxxi. for it all teach®* unconsciously we should be careful where work is put in the grades, for there is a p°nod in the child's life that h’ will try anything, and tiere is a time when he is unwilling to try. Careful teaching is essential for in this day we haven t good artiste, they are artisans So let us train hand and heart.” Pay Up.

Cr»»Hr to Animate. Colonel Martin, resident near tbs etty of Galway, on the southern border of Connemara. Ireland, was probably the first to a’nrt ihe worthy humanitarian crusade against cruelty to aultuals. The surprised British bouse of lords about- ' ed Insult and derialou at Lord Erskine | when in I*ll he ventured to gently I plead the cause of dumb brute*. The British bouse of commons would bnve treated Martin In the same manner ' when be Introduced bls bill for the prej vention of cruelty to animals but for wholesome regard for hh» dueling reputation. “Dick Martin's act." as the humanitarian statute was known. was p.t« ed in 1*22. "a memorable date in the history of humane legislation." On June 24. 1*24. Colonel Martin and a few other benevolent iudlvidua’* met Ln Loudon an I formed the first society for the prevention of cruelty to animal*. Forty year* later the movement spread to Arne- a. In IbGO Henry Bergh formed the .Sew York society. Words In Vae. Ordinary well educated people n*e from to 4.'"” words In conversation.

The men who cry Gatinais fowls for sale earn £2O a mouth. Those who sell Brittany fowls get £lO a month, and tbo«e who dispose of ducks only receive £lO per month.

During the commonwealth In England. when puritanical feeling held sway, niativ determined wfforts were made to put down wbat were termed superstitious festivals and among these that of Christmas day. The holly and the mistletoe bough were to be cut up root and branch as plants of the evil one. Cakes and ale were held to be impious offerings to superstition. Thus In 1'47 the Cromwell party ordered throughout the country by the mouth of the common crier that Christmas should no longer be observed. Waste and Poverty. With regard to waste, which lies at the foundation of nearly all poverty, the working classes have exalted it Into a principle of action. An English servant, as a rule, wastes as much of her employer's stblistance as possible. When she marries and has children she continues to be wasteful in her own home.—London Hospital.
