Camille Golgi had discovered a method of impregnating hardened brain tissues with a solution of nitrate of silver, with the result of staining the nerve cells and their processes almost infinitely better than was possible by the methods of Gerlach, or by any of the multiform methods that other workers had introduced.
It is their misfortune, not their fault, that there is no man of superior intelligence among them I mean no man who is capable, in great emergencies, of placing himself above conventional methods, and following a new way of his own.
We should say that in a library where there is any continued trouble with the young people, it is not their fault, but the fault of the library, and we should solve it by changing the library methods. Miss Clara F. Baldwin, Minnesota.
Space forbids me to go on longer, although the subject seems only just to have been begun, so large is its sphere of action, but I must give one last concrete example of two women's methods, to enforce my meaning of the importance of the end. Both sent their girls to the same school, where every accomplishment was taught and the highest tone prevailed that the masters could inculcate.
Want of enjoyment of school is likely to result, further, in distaste for intellectual employment in general. Yet we know that any person who amounts to much must do considerable thinking, and must even take pleasure in it. Bad methods of study, therefore, easily become a serious factor in adult life, acting as a great barrier to one's growth and general usefulness.
The noise made by those bombs is unmistakable, unforgetable, and quite distinct from the chorus of the guns and shrapnel a crashing note, reverberating, sustained, like the E minor of some giant calliope. In face of the raids, which coincide with the coming of the moon, London is calm, but naturally indignant over such methods of warfare.
He did not like arithmetic, and so he just touched on it now and then for the sake of appearances. This teacher was elected for the following year at a handsome increase of salary. He took this to mean a hearty indorsement of his methods; consequently he followed the same general plan the next year.
Not by revolutions can humanity be perfected. I might quote from an old oracle, "The gods are never so turned away from man as when he ascends to them by disorderly methods."
He cannot be controlled by the ordinary political methods. His constituency is small and evidently devoted to him and his state is remote; he is not compelled to do the irksome political chores that cost Senators their political independence. However doubtful he might be as a positive asset his dexterity and power of expression are such that he would be very dangerous as a liability.
But of course not more than one city in five or ten is so favored. Mountain Reservoirs. Two other methods of securing a water supply are now generally adopted. One is to pick out some stream up in the hills or mountains, within fifteen miles or so of the city, and put in a dam, thus making a reservoir, or to enlarge some lake which already exists there.
