Fob 3 Reuben Studlejr of thia town today is celebrating tho 88th anniversary of his birth. This forenoon he held eort of reception, at which he epet many of his old friends and business associates. Air atudley Is one of tho oldest and best-known citizen of the town, and has for over a half century been a prominent figure on the street. He lias always resided on Market st, mid nns seen the town grow from small country village to Us prebent symmetrical jiroportlons. He says that he can distinctly remember when there were but 15 house on Union st, which is now lined with business blocks, anil, from the corner of Webster st to the Hanover lino there were but a very few dwellings.

Air Studley started in life a a butcher, and he followed this vocation until within- a few years, when ho was obliged to give it up on account or hi advuneed years. Kor tio yearn Mr Stud-ley followed the Boston and Brighton eattlo markets, and ha outlived nil who were engaged in business when he first visited them. 'He says that he can renumber standing on tho east side of Faneull hall In Boston and watching a 300-ton vessel at anchor at the sidewalk. He relate many pleasing reminiscences of the old Boston days. Mr Ktud'cy is dt eeilded Otl mothers sido from John Rogers, who was burned on account of his religious belief.

His great grandfather was one of the earlier settlers of this place. He built a log hut on the site of Iorter Baker's residence tn Alarket st, where Mr Studley was born. At tho uge of 15 Air Studley entered tho employ of S.m're Harvey Torrey, who wus then engaged in the meat business. It was Ills custom to visit Boston and Brighton every Alonday, and he says that li usually left home at midnight and arrived there about 4. After dinner ho would start for home with his purchases.

He says that he recall tho terrible tornado of 1K.5 which did ho much dnm-age here. He was. driving a herd of cattlo ot that (late and when in South Boston his team was struck by the gale. His goods ere scattered, his horse killed, and he was sated only by tha aid of a company of sailors who chanced to be passing. Mr Studley married Miss Adeline Bur-gf S3 of Harvard In 1834.

She died In 1891. The celebration their golden wedding in 1884 was one of the events of that season, and they received many presents. All In all, there are few men la town better known than this aged citizen, and he received many culls from i lends during the da). THIEVES TOOK PLENTY OF TIME. UNDER JHE ROSE.

A few days ago Mrs a Boston operator, with years of experience, who has handled messages of deaths and funerals, bank breaks, heart breaks, busi-riex busts and all sorts of calamities, entered tho office at the usual hour to begin work. With a sorrowful face, she announced the death from pneumonia of a favorite lapdog. Within 10 minutes she had received many token of profound sympathy; both oral and written messages and poems hastily composed dwelling tipon the aad case of "dead dog, were sent her.

Every emotion tends to sculpture the body Into beauty or into ugliness. Worrying, fretting, unbridled passions, petulance, discontent, every dishonest act, every falsehood, every feeling of envy.

Jealousy, fear each has Its effect on the system, and acts deleterious-ly like a poison or a deformer of the body. Trof James of Harvard, an expert in the mental sciences, says: "Every small stroke of virtue or vice leaves Its ever so little scar. Nothing we ever do is, in strict literalness, wiped out. JEALOUSY. the torture and the emort; the anguish the heart; Sleepless nights and hopeless days; Jealousy, go on thy ways, 1 must not think of him with her.

Contributed by Pansy. A WOMANS VIEW OF RUSKIN. (Jeanette Giiiler in Harpers.) Ruskin seems always to have been unlucky in love. The woman he married d'd not love him. She was hurried Into the match by her parents, as he was by his, and It was not until after her marriage that she met the man she really loved.

This man was the late Sir John Everett Mallais. Ruskin saw how matter stood before Millais did. and he gave his wife a divorce, that she might marry his friend. This did not break up the friendship between Rtibkin and Millais, nor lietween Ruskin and his ex wife. Later in life he loved and proposed marriage to one of hla pupils a woman much younger than himself but sbo decided ngalnst him because they were not one in religious matters.

When she asked him If he loved God better than he loved her, he said No. So she said "No to his entreaties, and closed the door upon him forever. He was filled with bitterness and despair, but consoled himself with work, that panacea for many ills. A MANS VIEW. (From Ruskin.) The more powerful the Intellect, the less will lts works resemble those of other men.

Looker-On says that Quincy people are anything but surprised at the engagement of the ex mayor of Boston and Mrs Tyler. They have known for several yotits of the friendship existing betwcen them, and have seen them walking, bicycling. riding and golfing together. Rev C. M.

He says he wants to be free to devote his time to the news during his experiment of running a Christian daily. He regards the news as the most Important part of the paper, and by having the editorials out of the way, he will have time to pass on every Item submitted for publication, as is his Intention. Tbe night eoltor of the paper will be his principal assistant during the experiment. CUI BONO?

Is not ail overtaxing caused by coercive cramming? "I object to our present system of education principally on account of its coercive measures, which always mean overtaxing. A child can never be driven to its book without great injury to body and mind.i "Can an interest for learning bo awakened in every child without driving? Do all healthy children enjoy playing? If so, an interest for learning can be awakened in every child, for learning.

when rightly pursued. Is tho most delightful game of play. Whenever learning becomes more than play something is wrong. We are then either learning tho wrong matter, or are using the wrong method. Knowledge la tho food of the mind, just as the material nourishment we take is the food of the body.

"Could the methods which you used In educating Viola be suiessfully used in our public schools? "As soon as our public schools are brought in hariApny with the laws of life all natural methods can be used in them. To compel little children to sit quietly and silently for four or five hours a day Is the most injurious punishment that can be inflicted. This forced and unnatural conduct of children does not only destroy the interest for learning, bet stunts the mind and impairs the health of every child that Is so treated. I use the natural method, the method that works in harmony with interest, kindness and freedom. The school must come to the pupil, and not the pupil to the school.

POINTS ON THE GLOBE. serration, her power of discrimination, her reasoning and her ability as a critic are as marvelous as her other attainments. Ferhaps Violas most wonderful accomplishments are her extensive vocabulary and her ability to understand almost everything she reads. The following biographical sketch has been furnished by Mrs OlPrlch: "Viola was born In the city of Des Mom(s, la, Feb 10, 1857: was adopted by Prof ana Mrs Olerich Oct 14, 1S97. Since that time she has always lived with them and has received all her instruction from them at home.

"Aside from incidental colds and the measles, she has always enjoved th best of health, and 1 dally growing handsomer and more vigorous. At the date of adoption she weighed 14 pounds and w-as 2 feet 1 inch tall; Jan 1. 1900. she weighs 23 pounds, 1 ounce, and is 2 feet 11.6 inches high. "Viola is a blonde with an unusually fair complexion, a prominent forehead, a well-formed nose and remarkably brilliant eyes.

"She has always been permitted to eat as much of everything as she desired. When 10 months old she could drink alone; when 13 months, she could eat auite well with a fork. Mr Olerich says that she always makes a wry face when she eats a new kind of food for the first time. This seems to confirm the theory that we have to learn to eat every particular $Hnd of food. Mr Olerich believes thit freedom in eating and drinking establishes the safest guide as to when, what and how much to eat.

Viola has always retired alone, slept alone in her trundle-bed, and has never been rocked. At preset she usually retires between 9 and 10 in the evening, sleeps soundly all night and rises about 7 in the morning. The first year sho was with us she rose earlier) about 6 in the morning. At first she slept twice during the day, once in the forenoon and once in the aiternoon. Now she sleeps but or.ce during the day, right after dinner.

"Prof Olerich has always treated her with the utmost kindness and courtesy; has never even spoken a loud or harsh word to her. He believes that every bad boy and every bad girl has been made bad by meddlesome interference. When asked, Do you think that every child can learn as rapidly if properly instructed?" Prof Olerich. replied: I am well aware that most people attribute meat of th mental nd moral dmerence which they see in children to hetedity. but I can find no evidence in support of this theory.

In my Judgment we have the best of reasons to believe that all the rfiental arid the moral faculties of ali -healthy children are at birth approximately equal and similar, as much so as two little oaks which are Just aj tearing above the surface of the soli: but, after a centurys growth each order widely different environment, the one develops into a gigantic oak; the other, for want of favorabie opportunity, remains only a stunted sciub. so with individuals of the human race. I contend that Viola wonderful educatloral attainments are due to a better system of instruction, and not birth, and that any healthy child with equal advantages, would have done substantially as well. Even much better results may. I believe, be produced because Viola has by no means had the very best opportunity that can be applied.

With stiff better surroundings the results would, no doubt, be correspondingly greater.
