Without multiplying sentences of
the acquired character of the benevo
lent impulse in man, it is worth re
membering that even ecivilized races
relapse with astonishing pertinacity to
the non-benevolent state, and that in
cultured Athens the horrible human
sacrifices with which the story of an
cient Greece is replete survived as a
national institution, and that every
Year a man and woman were whipped
through the streets and then burned
alive to satisfy some such impulse as
prompts similar acts among the Congo
negroes. At the present moment the
absence of benevolence in any form
among the non-developed races of to
day needs no better illustration than
the ¢xsi recarded by Capt. Hinde, that
on the Upper Congo no negro lives
beyond 40, that being the age at which
their fellow-men directly or indirectly
cause their death. If analogy demands

ter illustration

alogy demands de
mands the exer
cise of benevolence
by one animal to
ward another, it is
note guite clear in
what sphere this
sentiment is to find
its realization, says
the Spectator. It is
clear that we can
not expect it from
all animals to 2all
other animals, for
the carnivorous
creatures naturally
act ‘after stheir
kind.” Probably
those who would
at any rate desire

would expect to sece
either a general
tendency to mutual
ald and comfort
among the non
carnivorous warm
blooded creatures,
or at least a desire
to perform such
good offices among
those of the same
species. We speklic

DOMESTICATED
these animals probably visit their fel
lows when trapped. The writer once
saw an odd instance of this ineffectual
concern—probably not very deep, for
the actors were sparrows. A brick
trap had been set in a yard and a
sparrow caught. All the eparrows in
the neighborhood had learned it and
were sitting in crowds on hedges, cu
cumber frames, sheds and buildings,
discussing the situation or staring
moodily at the trap where the captive
was imprisoned, but quite invisible.
Neaxt day a robin was caught, but the
sparrows showed no concern whatever.
This tendency among the wild races
finds definite expression among the
domesticated animals, though instances
are not very common. We have seen
a small pig stuck in a paling through
which it had tried to squeeze assisted
by an elder one inside. Attracted by
its cries, it took the small pig's head
in its moeouth and tried to pull it
through, in doing which it almost pull
ed the sufferer’s head off. In another
case a cat deliberately fetched its own
er to assist another cat which was ly
ing helpless in a fit., Moreover, domes
ticated animals are to some extent
“progressive’” and have realized the
notion of common good among other
creatures than their own stock, There
is a good deal of service and benevo
lence among very different domesticat-
MANUAL TRAINING TEACHINGS
Enlarges the Boy's Interests and Helps
Him Find His Right Vocation.
Manual training teaches no specific
trades, but aims to give a knowledge
of the principles underlying all trades,
says the Ladies’ Home Journal. Liter
ally, it means hand training. It teach
es the young men the principles and
practice of carpentry, patternmaking,
wood carving, blacksmithing, vise work
and machire construction, and it does
it more thoroughly and in far lesg time
than it is possible to do it in the man
ufactories themselves., The models are
not finished articles, but are simply
practice pieces intended to embody
general principles in both wood and
metal working. I am led to believe
that manual training, by enlarging a
boy’s interests and outlock, not only
help him more surely to find his right
vocation, but also tends to make that
vocation one of nobleness and worth.
And not only are these young fellows
occupied, but they are also successful.
As students, teachers, journalists, ar
chitects, engineers, electricians,
draughtsmen, physicians and lawyers
they are steadily making their way to

doing. In adapting manual training
