Recommendations for a change from
the vertical system of penmanship
i have been made before the Chicago
Hoard of Education. One of the trus
tees, Mr. Cameron, Is quoted as say
ing of vertical writing: "It may he
good to write love letters, but it is not
good for keeping books. I do not know
of a set of Isxiks in Chicago where the
up and down writing Is allowed. If a
ly can write only in the vertical style
business houses have little use for
him." If that Is the case it is a suifl-
cient reason why pupils should not
be required to learn vertical writing.
If 1ui:'i house have no use for
buys who write only the vertical style
surely no lmy ought to be required to
learn that t-tyle against his natural
inclination. It does not follow, how
ever, that those to whom it is natural
to write the vertical should be forced
to learn the Inclined style. The ob
viously common sense rule is not to
attempt to force the pupil ont of his
nature! bent. That Involves something
worse than a waste of time. It results
either in total failure or the acquire
ment by the pupil of an irregular,
nondescript style not suited to book
keeping or anything else in which uni
formity and neatness are desirable.
Very few pupils left to themselves
would write the vertical style. Per
haps as many would write with a
backward inclination. There is no
danger that there will be any lack of
penmen writing with the forward in
clination if pupils are taught to make
the best of the style which comes
natural to them. There is no obvious
reason why books rhould not be writ
ten iu the vertical style, other things
leing equal. Indeed, that style has
the advantage in point of legibility.
When Thomas A. Kdison was a tele
graph operator he had few equals in
speed aud anybody who could read
"coarse print" could read what he
wrote at top speed and his page as
almost as even and handsome as print.
There Is no valid objection to a set of
books kept by such a writer so far as
the penmanship is concerned. But if
business houses will not have that
style very well. Those who can write
it like Edison can flnu enough writing
to do if they wish.. They should not
force themselves to write another
style which they can never master
merely to please the business houses.
TOM'S CLEVER TRICK.
TkU Big: Elephant Conld Heolly Make
a Mouth Orson Bound.
Many New York girls and boys, as
well as out-of-town young visitors to
the city, will recall Tom, the big per
forming elephant who furnished daily
amusement for big young audiences
with tricks and other marvelous per
formance in the Central Park. menag
erie. That Is to say, his performances
seemed marvelous for a heavy elephant
whost natural position was on all
fours, and who did not speak English,
even though It almost seemed as if he
understood it Old Tom finally became
so dangerous that about two years ago
he had to be quietly put away by a
dose of poison.
Perhaps the most remarkable ot
Tom's tricks was one of which his
trainer was very nrnn1i pot only be
cause It was difficult, but because it
was novel as well. Tom would stand
upon hi hind legs on a strong box,
take from his keeper's hand a boy'd
mouth orgen, gracefully curl his trunk
back until It rested on bis forehead
and then alternately blow and dr-iw
his breath through the musical refd
of the toy.
Rears have been trained to beat a
drum and to wrestle, fie-Rig nnr Iwen

Captain George Archer, who recently
gave np his post of iKxlyguard to John
D. Rockefeller, heard, during his nine

was working for Mr. Rockefeller. I

feeling that made the universe appear
'ike a mass of delusions? I!nw slngu-
i-.rly things shape themselves when
we think of how much of onr aspira
tions, endeavors, snd expectations re
man an unrealizable fact, and how
much of what we cherish and fondU
leaves nothing more behind than a
nd recollection! Is It not In the
thadow of such reflections that we are
wont to say, "Life Is but a dream?"
What do we mean when we ay ' f ife
U a dream?" We mean by it tiist
there Is nothing reliable in this world.
"Life Is a dream" Implies all that
skepticism designates. It Is the
theory of double In a nutshell, the
iuintessence of the skeptic phlloso-
ihy. With most of us sketlclsm is a
issslng malady. It comes and goes.
But when it becomes chronic we are
joor indeed. The Bible recognises the
rower and acuteness of skepticism and
nade provision against It. The Book
f Job and that of Ecclesisstes are cal
culated to counteract evil, to which
here Is a proneness In human nature.
rhe lending thought Is In both the

that is wisdom" that Is, fear of or.

Skepticism, as a rule, finds an open
door where worship of God U made
subservient to our world'y purposes.
People who uphold religion for the
lake of obtaining valuable returns in
his world will lose faith in God when
their expectations do not blossom into
actual gratification.
Quite different It is when we place
religion and spirituality shove our

will regard them as gifts of God, and
will cheerfully Invite our fellow men
