Present Methods of Teaching Writing. (By Prof. F. S. Kitson.) Any teacher who will study for himaelf certain physiological facts cannot fail to see that the usual methods of teaching writing from the start, and impose upon the child difficulties which actually hinder his progress, fix bad habit upon him and at the end have him a poor writer. A new method, not a new system, must be wrought out of the view point of the every day practice of the school room. Let us consider for a moment the movements natural to the child when he comes to school. The greater number of his movements are large and free. The movements of the muscles of the hand, the fingers, and the arm are not trained to guide sharp points as that pen or sharp pencil. Yet we give him a pen or pencil, and place before his eyes certain forms, and set him to making those as best he may. When he attempts to do this too many muscles act that are not necessary to the co-ordination. It is these muscles which bother him and makes his efforts crude, uncertain, and painful. He may make every effort to control that fine point of the pen or pencil, but he succeeds in this only in a rude way. The child cannot control the energy. The movements demanded of him are, therefore, too fine and require too delicate an adjustment. The writing required of him is a long way in advance of his developements. Not only then do we get awkward movements from Jiim, but a strain of rigidity of tendon of the muscles which is tiresome and painful in the extreme. Until a change in the method of instruction and consequentchange ih execution is made, but little improvement may be expected and the same old “school boy” hand will be the result. For Sale—4o acres or will sell 30 acres with impiovements, near Vawter Park. This farm is adopted to raising vegetables fruit and mixed farming having a variety of soil. The improvements consist of a good 4 room house, good barn and other out buildings. Price and terms reasonable. W. G. Connolly. Don’t forget that it pays to advertise. There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on tne market. It is taken internally in doses from io drops to a teaspoonful, It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address F. J. CHENEY & CO., Toledo, Ohio. Sold by Druggists, 75c. Take Hall’s Family Pills for constipation.
