Practical French.

Two French teachers were discussing matters relative to their pro fesslon. “Do your pupils pay up regulafly on the first of each month?” asked one. “No, they do not I often have to wait for weeks before I get my pay, and sometimes I don’t get it at all. You can't well dun the parents for the money.” “Why don’t you do as I do? I always get my money regularly.” “How do you manage it?” “It is very simple. On the first day of the month, if money for lessons doesn’t come,'l give the following sentences to translate and write out at home: ‘I have no money.’ ‘The month is up. ’ ‘Hast thou any money?’ ‘I need money very much.’ ‘Why hast thou not brought the Roney t£is morning?’ ‘Did thy thef ntjt give thee .any money?’ The next morning the money usually comes. ” —Youth’s Journal.
