Q.When they are polished, do they look nice?

Q.What is this wood called?
A.Bog-oak.

Q.Will you all try to remember this lesson?
A.
We will.Teacher.That is right; for little children should always remember the pretty things that their teacher takes such trouble to tell them.
In places where coal is most burned, a piece of it may be made the medium of a very useful and instructive lesson, being so familiar an object, their attention will be arrested by its being made the subject of a lesson; and their curiosity aroused to know every thing about it.

When the teacher asks what is this, the simultaneous shout, of "a piece of coal," will convince him that he has arrested their attention; and a few questions will exhaust their stock of information on the subject--they will tell him its uses are to make fires to boil up their dinners, &c.

&c.
