I) IJ.ii nes, of Philadelphia, ami staff. In vitations have been extended to the officers of the Grand Castle of Missouri. The ceremonies will take place at the Masonic Temple, Hutchinson. The Paft'Ciijef's Degree will be conferred on over 100 Sir Knights. The nine Grand Castle Officers.

Representative to Supreme and eight Past Grand Chiefs, or members of the Supreme Cat-lie, will be elected, aftei which the Graad will be insti- ai.4 installed. Subsequently the three degrees will be exemplified- with elaborate paraphernalia. The order is in a prosperous condi tiou in Kansas; there being eight Castles and thirteen others are being organized. This order was founded in Baltimore. February ri, 187H.

The Supreme Castle was organized January 22, 1878. The order is based upon the most liberal principles consistent with future prosperity, and is (specially adaptttl for all. be they rich or poor. It has for its motto, "Fidelity, Valor and Honor" a trinity of graces which are taught in its beautiful ritual, which is perhaps une.xeeltad for beauty and iinpressive-ness. The features of the Knights of the Golden Eagle are beneficial, benevolent, social and semi-military.

The ritualistic work consists of three degrees, viz: First, or Pilgrims'; Second, or Knights; and Third, or Crusaders" Degree. The three degrees are symbolic of a soldier battling for his Faith. He is hist a Pilgrim, then a Knight and finally a Crusader. He has for his aim that of a Chnstain war rior. struggling to gain the immortal crown.

The order is now in successful oper ation in 30 States in the United States, and also in Canada. The progress of the order was very slow until within the past four years, during which time its growth has been almost marvelous. From January 1, 18S4, the progress of the order, particularly in J3ennsyl-yania, has been unprecedented in the history of kindred organizations. During that period 470 were instituted, the membership increased over mid the order introduded into 27 states. The present membership of the or der is over divided among .000 Castles.

BY J. P. G0OY, PH. I. AN EXPOSITION OF SL'LLEY'S rSYCilOt- i OOY.

CUAPTHU III. KODY AND JUKI). So far we have been engaged in an swering- three (1) Why should the teacher study psveholovry (21 Wliut Ih PsydtsolocyV () What are the methods ol Sinning out the mental faCtB of which osycholosy treats? lie- lore going on to sUnly these mental facts, we shall do well to look at the way in which the mind is affected by the body. The chief diiiiculty of this chapter is its subject. I told you in the last paper that mind, as Sully uses it, is not that which observes, remembers, imagines, reasons and so ou, but the very facts of observation, memory, imagination, reasoning and so on which we observe in our own experiences.

To make tbio clear, suppose "I ask you if ou have no mind" v. hen you arc asleep and not dreaming, that is when you are not thinking imagining, or reinem-beiing anything. You will probably say that you have mind then as well as under till other circumstances. Hut your answer is not correct in the sense in which Sully uses the term If mind consists of the very tacts of observation, memory, imagination, reasoning and so on of which we are conscious in our own experiences, plainly when these facts tio not exist, the mind does not exist. "But would.

Sully says, -you ask, that we have no mind w'hen we are asleep and no. dreaming?" Whatever he may think about that, he would say that isa question that psychology has nothing to do with, a question, to use his own lan-Kuage, as to the ultimate of mind, a question lor metaphysics to answer. You are JikeSv to make a -similar mistake as to what Sully means by "body." "Of course, he means liuman body. But he is talking of the human body simply as a group of physical facts. You may remember that I defined physical fact, as one which a number of men can see, hear, smell, touch or taste at the same time, or which they might see, hear, smell, touch or taste at the same time if they had keener senses.

Now what I can learn of yur body through the senses, or what I could learn if my senses were keener is what he means by body. Take an orange. Through my various senses I learn that it is yellow, round, rough, that it has a certain size, taste smell etc Suppose that it should lose its color without getting a new one, its roundness without gettiug another shape, its size, weight taste and smell without getting any new size, weight, taste and smell and so forth. What would be left of it? (See John Stuart Mills Logic, pg. 53.) That is arother 'question for metaphysics to deaf with.

Now I think that you see that all I know of your body I learn through your senses just as I learned about the orange and that just as we might inquire what would be left of the orange if it should lose all of its properties without getting new ones, so we might inquire what would be left of vour body if it should lose all of those properties-physical facts which we learn through the senses without getting new ones, and that again is a question for metaphysics. I think you can now see what the author now means when be says that "mental processes or operations are in some way conjoined with bodily operations." Ue is not talking about that metaphyseal mind or body which no one can observe that which observes, remembers, imagines, reasons and so on, or that which is extended, tangible iind so on but about mind as a group I We have seen that what tires he body tiies the mind. The reasiin tor this is int ilie i in lieitig a li b.idy when I he tiodv becomi'S lived the brain has no longer a large Fdipply of energy to draw front, and hence the effect 'on the mind. Again you have noticed that you cannot study well just frer eating a hearty meal. ine reason is that a part of the Mood-which tiie brain needs to enable the mind to work well has gone to the.

stomach to help in the processes of it, tints appears inai mm mud lUiiw on tne aanie supply oi en ergy, or to put it more li.cr.naieiy. since l.S,i4 ttraut- tiie iuaio sioie- hoiiKO of body, on the one hand and the braiii and mind on the ulliBr ton x'A And this is tiie reason why very hard si tidy produces such bodily weariness. There is a certain amount of energy at the disposal of body and mind, or body and brain. If the body uses a large part of it, there is little left for the brail if the brain uses a large part of it there is littic left for the body. This is the reason, also, why lung ai.d severe study often seriously injures the health.

The brain in such cases has used the energy that the body needed and the loss of it produces a loss of health. And this is the reason why all severe study in early life is injurious. In the first years in school life the child is, or should be, a rapid ly growing animal. The body, therefore, needs a large supply of enetgy and it the mind uses it the body suffers. From this we see how absurd it is to require the same number of hours in school fjoin a child of six.

as from fourteeia, Two hours a day is all that a child should spend in mental work and even ihon his work should be changed the moment he shows signs of fatigue. In this way a double purpose is served: (1) his health receives proper attention; (2) he school is made a center of pleasant' associations, something that he Will like to think of in after life, instead of a means of dis gusting him with books and study by requiring of him work he is unable to do. Tax (lie Mortgage. Mil. Editor: There has been a bill introduced in the Nebraska legislature to tax real estate mortgages, and as the legislature is composed mostly of farmers it is expected that the bill will become a law, notwithstanding the opposition of the money power In the lobby.

Will any member of our legis-turedare introduce such a bill? Surely If any state needs such a law Kansas does. But Senator "Wright says, "that if we are not careful we will drive these eastern moneyed men or mortgage companies from our state." Very- well honorable Mr, Wright of June tion City, the sooner lliey go the bet-! ter, for there never was a greater curse to any country than these moneyed sharbi. Mi. Wright savs "that we must let the poor and distressed go, and look after those that are less needy that we must not extend the time for redemption of real estate sold under foreclosure, for we might damage those that are in better condition." (I quote from the Capital-Commonwealth.) Mr. Wright, further says, "that whenever good security can be given money can b5 had cheap." Every person in the state of Kansas knows this to bo absolutely untrue.

Yes, we all know it to our sorrow, Mr. Wright stops to belong to the complaining for nearly two weeks but the doctors even did not think hia malady fatal. The end was sudden, and very unexpected. Funeral services will probably be held at the Con gregational church tomorrow evening, that is if his mother and brother arrive tomorrow. They live iu Iowa and have been telegraphed for, Academy Gleanings.

Nearly every body has a soio arm. Our sick folks are all improving nicely. "There's no flies" on the academy or- chestry. The elocution clss will give an ea- tertainmeut soon. Chas.

Noyceof Trinidad wus- a caller at the academy, Thursday Albert Crandall, was absent from his classes, several days last week. Several of the students attended the Golden Liuks''social, Friday evening. The academy social at Prof. Mathers last Saturday ere. wai well attend ed, and all report a good time.

The philo society is preparing a spe cial programme, for Washington's birth-day. Every body is invited. Evidently our academy friends be lieve in "the more haste the less speed" by the way work is progressing on the building. It is rumored, that there will be a wedding among the faculty, in the near future. Who can it Old Blinkey.
