WHAT HIGHER EDUCATION” IS DOING.

If we may judge by the complaints that are everywhere becoming so frequent, -al) accupations that task the energics of the mind rather than those of the body aro largely overstocked. Only a few days ago we were informed that there are eight then and barristers, of whom only abuọt sixteen hundred can be said to be,, in practico. And yet, in the face of these and similar statistion, we are all enamoured of higher education, and what is called the refinement of the masson. Men au large and Iberal-miaded as Talno, and M. Melahior do Vogue declaro compulsory education, for this among other reasons, to be & shortsighted policy; and, though it is rank heresy to echo that opinion, numbers

Is Mame that emme time in 1860–—in the -wister, un doubt ——Mr. Streng, of Leicester, was Lakon down with influenza, often called the grip and fruly a strong grip it has when it once takes a bold. Well, I am glad to say he was able to fight out the battle and get the best of it. Eat the heat wasn't anything to brag of. The in- funza hadn't exactly beaten Mr. Strong, but it Steamship-SIKH, Captain J lafam in very bad condition. And here is where you and I properly pick up the thread of

J

the story.

His male didn't tompt bim; the most savoury of dishes had no oburmi for sur friend. He had lost his appetite, and in the long run a man had better lose his money. He forced down sone ling of cvarso, but it gave him such pair in the chest that he wished he hadn't swallowed a monthia Then, natally, he got so weak and nervous he couldn't sloop a nights. This, as everybody knows, is the straight road to the graveyard, through the mailemas. Lots of people are making that trip all the tree. We aust eat and we mesi elvep. If we don't we are dune for. Neuralgic paine, too, made matters worse for Mr. Strang. He saw a danbor, and whai did a doctor do? This is what the patient says on that point: This ductor geve me all kinds of strengthening medicines, bats nene of them did me any good, and I continued to suffer for mouth after month,"

Just what we might have expected. Mr.. Strong farther ways: "I October, 1896-zay trised, Mr. Jaman Webster, of 28, Now Walk, Leicester, advised me to try a medicine called Matar Seigel's Curative Syrup, and I followed his adviso. The first bottle gave me great relief, and I began to digest my food and to have on appetite; and after I had used three bottles I was quite another man. I was completely enred. All my aches and pains left me, my strength returned, and I have been all right ever since. What astonishad my was find the Syrop cured me to quickly, and I shall never cease taaking Mr. Webster for making it known to ure. You are at liberly to publish my case for the benefit of others. Youre truly, (Signed) W. Srne, East Bireut, Leicester, December 30th, 1691"

Now, was there a mistake in this matter, and If so, what was it? Yes, there was a commou

intake made. It is an old and seemingly hope

leas blunder.

"The doctor," says Mr. Strong, "gave me all kinds of strengthening medicines."

Open wide your eara and remember what I'm

going to tell you now; remember it for the hour of your own helplessness and pain: There is no

ruch thing as strengthening medicine, either

in the earth nor in the waters which are under the earth. Thia ia the fruth; all the high-class" Rastors know it. As for the others...well, Chare ! the less said about thear the better.

Mr. Strong tack strengthening medicinas," and what happened to him? Why, he "son tinued to subfly month after month,” Did you aver ene a home made stronger and fatter by spar and lash-whips7 loving off the onts and Bay? I think you have not. And that in-what- **strengthening medicines" do, and all they do. Ro-called tamics are like making a sick man walk far and fast by kicking hita at every other step.
