THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES
)\ HAT I'.nUCATION STANDS Foil. Education does not mean teaching people what they do not know. It means teaching them to behave as they >lo not behave. It is not teaching the youth the shape of the letters and the tricks ot numbers, and leaving them to turn their arithmetic to roguery, and their literature to lust. It means, on the contrary, training them into the perfect exercise and kingly eontinece of their bodies and souls. It is a painful. continual and difficult work to he done by kindness, by watching, by precept, and bv praise, and above alf—by example. —JOHN BUSKIX.
