a Friday.
The “unlucklncss" of Friday owes

Extraordinary were the precautions
taken that Napoleon should never ap­
pear at a disadvantage on horseback.
The emperor was not a first-class
horseman, and his horses were always
thoroughly broken In. Her* la a de­
scription of the methods employed:
“They were trained to remain per­
fectly steady under tortures of every
description; to receive blows about the
bead; drums were beat, pistols and
crackers fired tn their ears, flags
waved before their eye< clumsy pack­
ages, and sometimes even sheep and
pigs, were thrown between their legs.
“None of the animals were deemed
sufficiently trained till ths emperor
could, without the least difficulty, pull
them np short at full gallop, which
was hla favorite pace."

Nature Study.
In the study of nature do not try to
teach too much in one lesson. Notice
first the characteristic features and
qualities of whatever is^ under discus­
sion ; let the child examine the object
If possible; remember that children
are more Interested in what things do
than in their form.
Let the child examine a little plant,
seed and all. Lead him to observe
that it does something. It pushes Its
roots and Its stem up; it eats and
drinks, breathes, sleeps and wakes. It
makes things:
Leaves and Cowers,
seed and fruits. Incidentally, notice
the form nnd color that these activi­
ties give to each individual plant.
Nature study need not be dull or dif­
ficult ; it provides plenty of life and ac­
tion. It is mostly our own interest
that Is dead, or our senses that need
quickening.
Grasp a few fundamental principles
•nd nature study tn the home, in ths
kindergarten and in the school, will be­
come the children's delight, the teach­
er's friend, and occupation for the
nursery to help start the youngster*
In busy work, a dally delight when

VICTORY MATTER OF COURSE
One of the great assets on the side
of the United States In any war is
the complete and unbounded confi­
dence of nil the people—soldiers and
civilians—that we are going to win.
No one for a moment has any doubt
about that. Some of us feel that we
may have to pay a heavy price, but
most of us will feel also that It Is
going to be worth all that It costs.
It Is to be noted that this sense of
confidence that fills the hearts of the
people la not the overconfidence by
which grent battles are sometimes
lost, but rather the consciousness of
being in the right and of having the
mental and physical force to uphold
that right for our own sakes and for
the sake of the world. Tills calm
confidence Is unquestionably a great
American advantage.
.The magnificent showing that has
been made and always will be made
by the American soldier boys thrills
the hearts of all loyal citizens. It Is
inspiring and It warms the heart—
but it was not unexpected.
