In midsummer the *«, especially in the southern wine ds bore richer burdens than were r before seen in France. The noise of a large yield was so great ugust that sales were mad® at than $1" a barrel for gob* thbler to be delivered iq October,’ Hll baser to furnish.the barrel:;-Then e the heavy raius of September, ioh entirely washed away the crop, and roots on many yiousands ores. This was iu the south of nee, but continuous raine in other vinces rotted the grapes or im- ed their richness. So the yield not so large as it was expected Consul Covert writes from ns that the acre age planted ' in es in France has been steadily in using for the last, twenty* -years, re are reasons now for believing ,t it has come to a standstill.' The iodieals devoted to the interests ,he wine growers advise that at tion now be paid to quality and to quantity. They advocate an rovement iu color iu alcoiol and ruituiess. If the production of e remains stationary more land 1 be devoted to the raising of ear' fruits and vegetables and the nting of mulberry trees and the ing cf silkworms will i*p«ve ire attention. Wiue is now pro ied more cheaply in California u in France. The efforts to .in uce French wine into Japan have been ineffectual on account of iforuia competition, the Japanese faring that they can buy wine aper and of as good a quality in Francisco. • . • MRS. ADRIAN KRAAL. Miss Allen took up the eraser t« clear board space for writing tin words of a song the pupils' were to copy. With a dash, a sweep, and a smeary she made room for herself, hut there were ragged edges of yester day’s examples and left-oVer exercis es hunting on margins and corners The chalk box waa half full 6f short bite of crayon; aha stirred about arid secured a’longer piece at th*_prioe of dnaty fingers. While ahe -ms bust I looked at her table. It was yery dusty and the cover .was fcwry, and it held a toppling pile of books, a thirsty and dejected looking bouquet in a tin can, a half-doxen foot rules, a box of slate pencils, another of con fiscated property such as marbles, quids of gum, a jumping-jack, a brok en penknife, etc., the class bell and the register. Miss Allen’s rubbers and lunch-basket were sitting side by side beneath the table. The wa ter pail’and cup stood ou a shelf near me. The cup was riMty and dusty The watdr in the pail had a snspic ions look. An unclean bar of soap was sticking fast to the shelf, having been laid there when it waa wet. The stoVe looked as if it were perfect stranger to polish, and was. gorged .with ashes,’ which were trying to effeql jut* exit at every opening. . Several pieces of Waite paper had lieen squeezed into .balls and thrown at, not intd, the wood-box. The floot was very dirty, yet broom, worn off at one corner, stood nehiud the door, and a pile of bark and other kindling lay near it.

The oral reading of the child should be an effort on liis„ part, to make the hearers understand what he finds in the written langnnge. 1. From the beginning the child should be led to see, through the word, the idea, or picture, of which it is but a symbol. . 7 So long as the word form claims the child’s attention, the ides it rep resents will lie seen but vaguely and indistinctly, if at all. For Ibis reas on, a study ot the lesson, word by word, if necessary, should precede any effort to read it Moud. 8.

SOPTHEM RAHWAY lift ATLAITIC CHART HUB. - To St. Levua^CiackUULti, LoulsvilU Chicago MKMIIHV HUMS, to his education.— the True tem:hbr. The true teacher is not chiefly con cerned about his salary. ' That Is ari Important item in his list of necessi ties, arid he Is hot likely to receive too much of it, if he is a true teacher. School directors are not given- to ex travagance of this kind. But salary is not tne most important thing in a teaches’s life. It is more important that he be conscientious iri uis work. The terioher who'puts his conscience in his Work will sucoeed where others fail. If in no other way he will suc ceed in being at peace with himself. The painstaking, conscientious teach er is apt to give to each pupil the at tention which he deserves, and so se cure for each one the best fruits of bis toil* He will necessarily make each scholar feel his interest in him, which will inspire a pupil to do his best. To get each pnpil to know h"ia own weakness and to remedy it; to bring each pupil to the point of do- 111c bis best; to enlist every energy ofwe child In the tasks to be done —this is work which bait money val nation. The true teacher cannot measure the amounl-of his work by the size of his salary but will do whatever is necessary, arid am*. long usTTmTnecessary, for success. He who guages the amount of his labor by the size of his salary is a mere hireling, and unworthy of a place in the ranks of true teachers.
