MATTERS OF INTEREST TO PU
PIL AND TEACHER
Gtndy of the Lmigrnaee In the Key to
Iearnina Parents Should Feek to
Kncouragc the School Teacher Two
Ways of Enforcing Discipline-
Klementnrv Mudy of Englah
If childreu learn nothing else in
school they should learn how to use
their own language This is the key to
the learning of the time the instrumen
tality whereby all knowledge is shared
and distributed among men It is
moreover the only branch of a school
education all of which the pupils will
find of positive practical use at all pe
riods of their life Beyond the merest
elements how much of the arithmetic
learned in school is of real use to one
pupil out of ten How much of it is re
membered by the very large class who
have no occasion to employ it in later
life Beyond the great facts that could
be taught in a few lessons how much
of the geography is remembered in
after years by the vast majority who
have learned it in school In traveling
in Europe and even in parts of our own
country one has to learn the geography
all over again I have to go to the Gaz
etteer for hundreds of facts that I had
to commit to memory in my school days
and if I want some of the same facts
again six months later the chances are
that I shall have to go to the Gazetteer
again I do not care to lumber up my
memory with such knowledge when
I know where to find it if I have occa
sion to make some temporary use of it
So with the minutiae of history which
are memorized so laboriously in school
and forgotten so easily afterwards It
is only teachers and critical students of
history who remember them or to
whom they are of sufficient value or
interest to any special effort to
retain them but all that we learn in
the study of language if it is taught
aright is of immediate and enduring
value Every new thing we come to
know in literature is a joy forever
Your school boys and school girls after
they have become fathers and mothers
-will testify to the truth of this I am
old enough to speak on this point from
my own experience I began teaching
forty years ago and from the start I
combined work in literature with that
in language I have met many of mj
pupils long after they had grown up
and become settled in life and I have
found them enjoying good books and
training their children to the same hab
its and tastes They tell me that of all
the lessons they had in school these in
English have been the most helpful
stimulating and inspiring ever since
Vuiiam J Rolfe
Encourage the School Teacher
There are many heartsick school
teachers in this city whose work would
be lightened by a few words of appre
ciation from parents whose children
have been the subjects of deep anxiety
through the long term and who have
had the best care and training which
the teachers are capable of imparting
Unfortunately there are few parents
who ever give the matter sufficient
thought to realize what they owe to the
school teacher One who leaves him
self or herself open to censure is not long
in getting it In such cases the parents
have a lively appreciation of their
rights and they are not slow in letting
the dominie know what they think of
him It is pretty hard for him to swal
low but he takes his medicine quietly
as a rule and that is the best thing to
do But parents who are qui- to re
sent the exercise of undue authority by
the teacher rarely if ever think of the
infinite patience and forbearance that
is necessary in the training of children
and as a result they do not ay t rule
make allowance for the human nature
in the teacher They expect him to be
infallible Parents who cannot train
two or three children in their homes
have only condemnation for a teacher
if he or she fails to manage sixty or
seventy and teach them the three Rs
whether they will or no Another class
of parents and they form the majority
do not think of it They would ex
press their satisfaction if the teacher
came to them but it is too much trouble
to go to the teacher or write him a note
If parents but knew the encouragement
the men and women who teach would
derive from a frank acknowledgment
of the value of their services a 1 an ex
pression of gratitude for the patience
exercised towards their children thou
sands of them would hasten to thank
those who have been faithful to their
duty It would also inspire them to
fresh exertions in behalf of those com
mitted to their care Evening News

Discipline
One way The boys are passing out
for recess They have a new teacher
and of course boy like are testing her
mettle A peculiar restlessness half
daring half afraid is expressing it
self in their every movement The
teacher is ready She quickly de
tects the familiar symptoms of mis
chief and braces herself for the neces
sary treatment Her lips are rigid and
her eyes defiant but withal she is not a
little anxious and unconsciously shows
it This is enough From the corners
of their eyes the boys read the challenge
aiul note the anxiety they venture the
risk Down come their feet with sud
den though to be sure not over confi
dent heaviness Boys Stand still
shouts the teacher with a house-a-fire
look and tone of voice which is extreme
ly pleasing to the boys Now see
here if you cant walk properly youll
go without your recess Pass A
suppressed giggle goes the rounds but
the feet are passably quiet until the
outside door is reached then down they
come with unusual vehemency follow
ed by exultant war whoops Undoubt
edly a ttound lecture awaits their re
turn
Another way Teacher No 2 has a
similar experience to start with She
also is ready Her lps are firm but
warmly so her eyes so far from being
defiant are particularly trusting and
not the slightest hint of anxiety is al
lowed even to enter her soul Most im
portant of all perhaps is the direction
of her gaze It is not thinly and nerv
ously spread out over the whole mass
of children making each feel that he is
quite lost in the crowd and therefore
shielded from detection but she cen
ters her attention on the two or three
leaders passing along with them per
haps making a remark or two regard
ing something she hopes they will en
joy on the playground In the face of
such personal sympathy it is impossible
to stamp mischief fades away from the
two or three faces in question and
consequently from most of the others
But from one supposedly unnoticed
corner there comes a sudden stamp
Does it run like wildfire through the
whole line No indeed the fuel has
been dampened Mob strength is
broken Without changing her expres
sion toward the other children the
teacher quietly calls or takes the of
fending member from the line and
waits until all have passed out before
giving full utterance to her righteous
indignation which is not fun to bear
alone She has conquered School
Education
School Lunches
Have you ever seen a boy or gin
ashamed to open their lunch basket or
pail The usual reason for this is
that the lunch is neither inviting nor
bountiful Have them attractive by
all means If napkins mean too much
extra washing buy a bunch of paper
ones one hundred can be bought for
121A cents and upwards but dont send
your child to school without one of
some kind It not only looks better
but will save his clothes for the aver
age child will wipe his hands upon
something and if no napkin is at hand
a coat sleeve or an apron will be called
into service Bread meat and caice will
keep fresh many hours by wrapping
with paraffin paper This is inexpen
sive and can be used several times
Put plenty of bread and butter into
the lunch basket the buttered sides
placed together and cut into a nice
square or oblong Rich pies cakes
tarts pickles etc so dear to the hearts
of children can easily be given up
when healthful dainties are provided
Sponge cake graham wafers cream
gingerbread oatmeal cookies figs ap
ples dates oranges etc are nourish
ing and appetizing A smaa cup of
jelly is a pleasant addition occasion
ally If one has no fruit jellies a good
substitute can be had in apple rnd sago
jelly or a baked sour apple liberally
sprinkled with sugar A bit of smoked
fish halibut salmon or herring is a
nice occasional lunch relish Appetiz
ing sandwiches may be maue from
left overs either meat or fish minced
nne and moistened with salad cream

He Admits His Guilt
A distinguished lady from the con
tinent visiting Chicago during the
Worlds Fair -was asked to take a
morning stroll down one of Chicagos
fashionable avenues
The Americans have such filthy haD
its she said turning up her eyes and
closing them deprecatingly that it is
nauseating to walk their streets if
people must expectorate why do they
not do it on the grass or pavement
and not on the sidewalk Nationalities
are judged by their cleanly or unclean
ly habits
Last summer a party of ladies tooic
passage on one of the steamers plying
between Chicago and St Joseph for a
pleasant sail on the lake To enjoy the
full benefit of the breeze they sought
the prow of the boat Plump in the
center of the deck sat a Avell dressed
middle aged man engaged in the solac1
ing diversion of chewing tobacco Be
fore the steamer had made the outei
harbor the black liquid stood in pools
about his feet The ladies were rushing
here and there for stools but all gave
him a wide berth When the space had
been pretty well filled the party afore
said came upon the scene hunting for
seats The foremost lady suddenly
halted and with disgust pictured upon
her handsome face said
What pig did that
Looking up unabashed the middle
aged man replied I guess Im tho

Not a Fisher ol Men
A lady in Cleveland says the Tlain
Dealer engaged a new coachman not
long ago He was new in a double
sense having but recently brought him
self and his mixed dialect accent across
the briny from Liverpool One day it
occurred to the good lady to find out
something definite about Johns family
And your father John what was
he
Thanky kindly maam said the
coachman f ey ther e was a seeker like
maam fer the erria
He means a clergyman of course
thought the good dame Then she said
aloud
And was he ordained
I think e wor maam said the
coachman though they didnt ave the
smallpox much to speak of where he
came from and I dent know whether
it took or not
And now the good lady takes great
delight in telling her acquaintances
that her new coachman is the sou of
an English dissenting clergyman Some
day she will rudely awaken to the face
that the errin are not sinners but

SLAVS WHERE VICTORIA RULES
Trade in Iluiaan Beings Under Great
Britains llas
Great Britains consul at Pemba near
Zanzibar tells in his report to his Gov
eminent some strange facts about the
prevalence of slave trading under thy
British flag Pemba is an isolated de
pendency of Zanzibar lying some miles
N N E of it which passed under
British protection with Zanzibar itself
at the time when Heligoland was ceded i
to Germany as a price for her acquies
cence in this arrangement -
It is indeed a picture of helpless suf 1
fering that the consul draws in de
scribing the present condition of the
slave in Pemba The Arab proprietors
are inexorably stern and exacting task
masters The slave ia a chattel a beast
of burden He lives in what may by
courtesy be called a hut He is allow
ed to till a small portion of the land for
his own support on two days of the
week The remaining ive he devotes to
work for his masters benefit
But not all the j ear through When
the harvesting of the staple product of
the island comes round the picking of
cloves and labor is more than usually
valuable the slave works for his mas
ter seven days in the week being gen
erously allowed to retain for himself
the third part in some cases two
thirds of the fruits of his labor on
Thursday and Friday
And so this miserable drudge lives his
weary life until his strength is exhaust
ed and then when his arms are power
less to labor and his legs refuse to car
ry him when his back is bent and he
is though young in years a decrepit old
man his Arab master turns him out of
his hut deprives him of his plot of land
and discards him a worn out instru
ment for which he lias 310 longer inj
use
Such is the picture no fancy one or
highly colored of the African slave
who lives in a British protectorate
On the island the slaves die like flies
and yet there is always an abundant
supply of them Where do they -come
from It will scarcely be asserted that
they voluntarily intrust their lives to
the tender mercies of the Arab slave
master In this part of the world the
slave trade is still at any rate a flour
ishing institution
False Witnesses

who represent certain local hitters ami poi
sonous stimuli as Identical wltb or possessing
properties akin to those of Hostetters Stom

foisting their trashy compounds upon people
unacquainted with the genuine article
which Is as much their opposite as day Is to
night Ask and take no substitute for the
grand remedy for malaria dyspepsia consti
pation rheumatism and kidney trouble
Oyster Famine Out of Sight
There may be an end to the oyster
busiuess some time remarked an old
Washington oyster man but it wont
come for many years yet The oyster
beds of Chesapeake bay alone are 3000
square miles in extent and while the
oysters there are probabiy not as plen
tiful as they were some yearo ago there
is still a good supply notwithstanding
the number dredged yearly Of late
years the supply has very considerably
increased owing to the millions of small
oysters dredged off the coast of the Car
olinas and planted in the Chesapeake
bay to grow When the ocean oyster is
first dredged it is too salt to eat In
several years however it loses its fiery
and very salt taste and soon increases
in size Though oysters are plentiful
all along Long Island Sound and good
too yet the great supply is taken from
Chesapeake bay the annual yield of
which is over 30000000 bushels
CATARRH IN THE HEAD
A Constitutional Disease Requiring
a Constitutional Remedy
Catarrh in the head consists of inflam
mation of the mucous membrane in tho
nasal passages and sometimes it extends
to the air cavities which cover a consider
able portion of the face Catarrli in the
head frequently destroys the senses of taste
and smell and its tendency is always de
bilitating The best authorities say catarrh
is just as surely a constitutional disease as
is scrofula It is caused and promoted by
impure blood The teaching of experience
proves that the true way to cure catarrh is
to purify the blood The One True Blood
Purifier is Hoods Sarsaparilla Thousands
of such statements have been written by
honest straightfoward men and women
they have been published year after year
and their genuineness is beyond any pos
sible question

dally with snuffs inhalants and useless
local applications Take the direct
road to health Cleanse the stream at
the fountain head Purify your
blood with one True Blood Iuri
fier Hoods Sarsaparilla In a short
time you will be convinced of the wisdom
of this course Hoods Sarsaparilla will
give you an appetite tone and strengthen
your stomach make rich red blood and
remove all the disagreeable symptoms of
catarrh by permanently eradicating the
causes which produce them

Davenport of Mosier Ore was robbed
of S000 worth of gold dust He was
never able to recover the amount nor
to learn the identity of the thief It
now tranpires that the person who
took the gold is dying and that he has
made a will in which he provides that
the original S000 shall be paid to Mr
Davenport together with interest at

taken until it shall have been paid It
