TOO MUCH ARITHMETIC. `

The very prominent place given ti

arithmetic in the public school progsam is awakening serious misgivings in the minds of thoughtful educationists. In the words of some teachers, “the cream of the day” is devoted to instruction in this branch, and it might be added that the cream, or bloom, of the lives of many of our children is being thoughtlessly sacrideed at the same exacting shrine. For the average child has an intense

thirst for knowledge before entering school, and should be met with such eon- .ditionsaswili satisfy his longing < to in vestigate the ample field attractiugjiis at- tention in eveiydiiection. This is t__Ione to a very limited extent only, brt instead _ constant appeals are made to duiinant ‘ faculties with the result that apositive distaste torschool and study is engendered, to the lasting injuiy of the after-life of the pupil. This wi‘l explain much of what is called dulluess. so prevalent

influence of examinations. In this way it has come to pass that about nine~teuths of the student-world are working to pass examinations, and think _ of original in-_ vestigation and research only after they <

vantage ground.

Is this to the credit of our vaunted

school system il Must our methods of in- struction be so divorced fiom the ti ue philosophy of education as to blight and dwarf instead of to develop 2 Is it not possible for the thoughtful teacher to direct his pupils as investigators and ex- perimenters even in the teaching ' of reading, writing, drawing and spelling? It certainly is possible and not at ;all{nn- common, But this method is not ap- plicable to juniors when the abstract idea of number is under consideration. A hiirher degree of mental developent be comes necessary, for memory_ work is reallv as much out of place in arithmetic as in algebra and Euceid.

But our schools do not exist for the pur-

pose of making arithmeticiaus, to the neglect of more important object.They are supposed to be instituted mainly for the pui-pose of preparing the youth of this country for the principal industrial pur- suits of life in which az ithuietic cuts but a very small figure. The former has to do with Nature rather than number, while our schools have to do withnumber rather than nature. Surely there is a misdt here. Cazrthere be any wisdom in educating young men away from their life’s work? A general education is desirable-why notmake our course of instruction ii little more general and less specific in the line of arithmetic. Neither the cultural nor practical value of the subject will wai rant any such prominence as it has mysteriously obtained in our course of study-a. prominence without a parallel in any other part of the world.

The apologists for this undue attention

to arithmetic say that isinecessaiy in order to make pupils thorough in the subject. but this is what they do not do. The over anxiety to begin the subject defeats the very object in view, and justifies the frequent complaint that the large propor-

Geutlemen,-While driving down a very

THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.

Also a Few Facts on the Same Sub-

We hear much nowadays about health

foods and hygienic living, about vegeta- anism and many other fads along the same line. "

Restaurants may'be found in the larger

cltics _where no meat, pastry or codec is

served and the food crank is his glory,

vanced to prove that mi-at was never in- tended for human stomachs, and almost

~ taken tg ,emu-5 a remedy _ make us believe that our sturdy aiscestors `

_who lived four score years in robust health no roast beef, pork and mutton must have been grossly ignorant of the laws of _ health. ~ Our forefathers had other things to do

than formulate theories about the food they ate. A warm welcome was extended to any kind from bacon to iicorns.

A healthy appetite and common sense are excellent guides to follow in mai/.e.s _ of diet, and ii mixed diet of grains, fruits and meats is undoubtedly the best.

A1 compared with grains and vegetables meat furnishes the moat nutriment in a highly concentrated form and is digested and is 'assimilated more quickly than vegetables and grains. ' ' Dr. Julius Remmson on this subject

says: Nervous persons, people run down in health' and of low vitality should eat meat and plenty of it. It the digestion is too feeble at first it may be easily cor- rected by the regular use of Stuart’ Dyi - pupsia Table; s aE.cr e ich meal. Two of these excellent tablets taken after dinner

will digest several thousand grains of

acids and sal* whichactually perform the work of diges ion. Cheap cathartic medl- cines, masqneradbg under the name of dyspepsia cures are useless for indiges- tion as they have absolutely noleffoct upon the actual digestion of food. Dyspepsia in all its many forms is simply _ a failure of the stomach to digest food an_d the sensible to solve the riddle and cure the dyspepsia is to make daily use at meal time of apreparation like Stiiartfs Dys- I pepsia Tablets, which is endorsed by the-
