Chaviottetown, Jaue 14, 1889—eod why

On the morning of every school day there euters the public schools of Primce Edward Island almost as great a number of girls as boys. Each previous year, et Our conven- tions, we have given boys our special atten- tion. Ithink it but fair that we should now consider our girls, amd ascertain \whether or not we womem teachers are doing or being all we can, 9@ that in the days to come, when the greaé lists are made up, there may be found among those taught by us ‘tof honourable women not a few.”

While the sight of a large number of children of either sex is always an impres- ‘sive one, yet the sight of a large number of 'girla bout leaving school is especially so to one atall thoughtful. We can but say, as ‘they leave us, year after year, ‘‘Cirant Heaven, that early love and truth may never wholly pass away. | Unless a woman is Wery apathetic, she tires of the endless satire on the novel- ‘reading, piney arn girl; or the girl

and their material interests at least careful- ly.guarded,...vou may have noticed that lit.ie girls arehappier in the first. days of schuoi life than boys; their powers of ob- servation are stronger, and they use them mvve. The something called manner in a chiid at first attracts our attention; we can at once know the surroundings of his home- life and what his mental attitude towards his fellows, li too self-conscious, shyness or awkwardness will appear; if he thinks the world and all that is in it was made for him, he will show that also. We will all acknowledges that there is nothing more unpleasing in a girl than _ boisterous- ness of manner, nor nothing more pro- voking than to hear her speak in fretful, nasal tones, using slang expressions. If the girls have good manners, the boys are sure to have them too ; therefore, I think that we teachers ought to be ever watchful in this direction. One of the most cultured women of our time writes on this subject : ‘* Burke said that manners were more im- portant than laws; manners are what vex or soothe, corrupt or purify, exalt or de- base, barbarize or retine ua by a steady, uniform, insensible operation like the air we breathe.”” Commenting on this she says ; ** He did not mean the manner of the fashionable men to the beautiful women, nor alone the polished etiquette of the drawing room, but the habitual manuer of the fortunate to the unfortunate, of the poor to the poor, patient, of the landlord to his tenant, of one old woman to another old woman, and

In short, the making people whom we meet as happy as possible, furgetting or repress- ing ourselves, gives us a claim to be called the possessors of good manners.”

tesy or self-repression. teachers forgive me if I say ‘that 1 believe we too often, in common with our sex, confound reproof with scolding, and so do much to retard what we wish to develop. We must acknowledge that women have an inclination to scold. Solomon, you remem- ber, expressed a preference tu dwell in either the corner of a huuse-top or a wilder- ness than to dwell within the reach of an angry woman's tongue. We notice merry

their happy veices; in contrast, tu hear ‘some older women talk im the high key ‘that indicates a pertarbed spirit is not pleasant.

We can do much towards im- provement in this respect, besides being careful of our own manner of talking, by being watchful in the reading class of the vowel sounds, of change of tone, of the local mispronouncing of words, of drawls peculiar to a family or families. The use of slang or vulgar sayings by a teacher is more unpardonable than the use of false syntax. Custom has given boys a license with speech which is fast being taken by the girls. I read in an educational journal lately the opinions of a prominent pro- fessor on the subject of pure speech; he hoped that the universities would its interests, and thought that eventually it would come down to the common schools. It may be seen at a glance that it is the other way we must look for reform. If we express our thoughts in pure simple language, avoiding exaggerations and abundant superlatives, we will do much to counteract the the effect of such expres- sions as ‘‘awfully jolly,” *‘simply immense” which the girls hear on all sid-s from those from whom we might expec better. But you will think as you hear all this, that I am putting the effect before the cause; that correct speech and womanly deportment are but the results of a crua education. J grant all this. Conven- tional refinement may for a time conceal vulgarity of nature and the lack of genuin- ness ; but the manrers which we ought to strive fur may not be taught as a science or art despite the prominence given them in a boarding school curriculum. ‘*Manner and speech are only for the eye and esr; we are not content with pantomime; we want rea! relations of the mind and heart; we want knowledge, we want virtue.” The day is furever gone when there is any

But there may be silent influences at work in our scloolrooms which tend to undervalue the ability to perform the every-day duties of a worian’s home-life. There are gome, who ins‘ead of regarding acquired knowledge as a rich

Creator and the ennoblement of life, use it as a tower from which to look down on others. Perhaps unconsciously we cause girls to whom Geometry and advanced Arithmetic are sealed bovks, to feel that they are failures. Let ug impress on these girls the fact that there are ‘* diversities of gifts,” all of which are equally necessary to the well being of society, and that it is just as highly praise to have it said ‘‘she looketh well to the ways of her household” when it is said, as that *‘she openeth her mouth with wisdom,”—and that these two

We can do much by word and action to show the difference be- tween a drudge and one who glories in being called a working woman, and that the work a woman is fitted by God to do, whether in the kitchen, parlor, shop or schoul-room is the work respectable for her to do. Bye and bye, when we cali that society ‘‘ good” in which ‘sense, sim- plicity, knowledge and therough good meaning abide,” we will tind more who are willing to be trained to manual work or the work they can best perform, because i} they will not then be excluded from ming}l- ing with those whom they recognize as itheir equals, Let us teach our giris to ob- ‘serve the laws of health.

time when so much attention was given to voice culture as the present, and all who have sensitive ears offended by the harsh sounds called music are glad of it. But like every good thing it may be overdone ; it is so natural that a girl who has spent hours in endeavoring to trill and to reach the high notes, should, when left to her- adif, choose her song witha view to show the result of her long and careful practice aud thus lose sight of the main object of music, I think we should encourage the girls who have not the advantages of a musical training but who have voices attuned tu sing, to usethese voices, telling them that to the woman who wishes to increase the happiness of her world there is no more powerful aid than the gift of song. Songs which children love, which southithe sick and the dying, are simple songs, are easily learned aud appeal to the heart as well as to the ear.

Girls and boys «will read story-books, will use their imaginations, no matter who ery out against their following their inclina- tions in this respect. We are glad to notice such publications for girls as Atalan- ta wnd the Girls’ Own, and hope the day will soon come when they will be within the reach of all. There is much we might do to prevent the forming of depraved tastes if we would seek to guide the home-reading of the girls— if we would recommend to the younger girls such books as Louise M. Alcout’s, Mrs, Wh:tney’s, and Marie Edge- ‘worth’s; to the older pupils Dickens’ David 'Coppertield, Little Dorrit, Old Curiosity | Shop, and many others of lke kind. We have never closed any one of these books without feeling a desire to be | more unselfish, to be true ‘women. Then why not lead out pupils te the }source of 30 much happiness, whose effect is 80 good and beautiiul. In this way we are enlightening and elevating the moral inature which is the one thing to be accom- i plished, supposing all e'se be neglected. Without lecture or sermon, or cant, or

Blood Diseases are cured by the persevering use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla.

This medicine is an Alterative, and causes a radical change in the system, The process, in some cases, may not be quite so rapid as in others; but, with persistence, the result is certain, Read these testimonials :—

“ For two years U suffered from a se- Yore pain in my right side, and had other troubles cau by a torpid liver apd dyspepsia. After giving several medicines a fair trial without a cure, [ began to take Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. I was greatly benefited by the first bottle, and after taking five bottles I was com-

letely cured.’’—John W. Benson, 70 wrence st., Lowell, Mass. | Last May a large carbuncle broke out on my arm. The usual remedies had no effect and I was confined to my bed for eight weeks. A friend induced me to try Ayer’s wenn pom Less than three bottles healed the sore. In all my expe- rience with medicine, I never saw more

For five months I took it daily. I Lave not had a blemish upon im body for the last three months.” —T. E. Wiley, 146 Cuambers st., New York City.

* Last fall and winter I was troubled with a dull. heavy pain in my side. I did not notice it much at first, but it gradually grew worse until it became almost unbearable.
