A VALUABLE WATcH.-"Boys," said an
old Silas, "here is watch that wouldn't
give for the best COW in Squawville," at
the same time taking from his jacket
pocket bulPs-eye watch about the same
size as small turnip. "Last fall, when
I was digging potatoes, I lost this ere
watch, and never found it until Deacon
DaniAls brought it to me one Gay last
week. The Deacon was going to Squaw
vile, and in passing near my potato field,
he heard the watch ticking, and followed
the sound for nearly quarter of mile,
and finally found the watch where | lost
it six months before; and would you
believe me, gentlemen, that watch never
varied second in all that time.

A NUMEROUS PosTERITY- Mr.
Brown was engaged in taking the census
in the town of Fremont, in this county,
he visited the family of Absalom and
Margret Ames, aged seventy three and
seventy-four years respectively, who live
on farm worked by their own hands
since they emigrated to this country from
Pennsylvania, sixteen years ago. They
have twelve sons and daughters grown
up and all married These twelve chill
dren have in the aggregate, eighty five
children, and their children three. Tue
four oldest of the children of Absalom
and Margret have forty -fve children, the
oldest having fifteen, and the next three
ten each, making in all one hundred
children, grandchildren and great grand
children belonging to Mr.. Ames and wife.
The facts here given were obtained by
Mr.. Brown from the old lady herself,
who now does her own housework, be-
sides taking care of the cows, pigs, poul.
try, making butter, etc, and is as cheer.
full, active and happy as most wives at
thirty. We doubt very much if such an
extraordinary case can be found in Wis.

HOSEA BARNS,
OUR TEACHERS.
Co. supt.

2
The price of labor like that of mer-
chandise, depends in great measure upon
the relation of supply and demand. We
see this illustrated in our own county BY
the annual increase in salary of our first
class teachers, in many years past. Good
teachers are in greater demand now than
at any previous time; while there is mo
appreciate increase in the supply. True
we are constantly bringing out new and
successful, teachers, but at the same time
we are losing from the number through
the more "liberal inducements !" offered
by other localities. As an evidence of
this we refer the reader to the "Person
al items found in the EDUCATIONAL this
week, and in addition thereto we may
mention the names of the following gen.
tlemen and ladies who were at one time
leading teachers of this county
L. W. Briggs, formerly County Supt.,
Prin. Sd Ward School. Racine Mr..
Briggs has the finest school building in
the city, and one of the best in the state.
Salary $1,000.
James Harmon, formerly Co. Supt.,
Prin. Kenzie School, Chicago. The
Board of Education are about to erect a
beautiful and commodious edifce for this
school. Mr. Humans present saalry is
$1,000, and will be increased. ......
B. L. Dodge, formerly Co. supt., PrirI
Palatine High School, Iii. This school
has one of the finest and best furnished
school buildings in Cook Co. Mr.. Dodge
receives a salary of 81 200 per annum.
N. S. Wright, Prin. High School, San
dusky, Ohio L. o. Lee, formerly Prin
High School, Willoughby, Ohio; Misses
Belle Spence, Mary Spence, Esther Shep-
ard, Clara COTE, Abbie Gilbert, Libbie
Winnegar, Lizzie Patterson and many
others in the Chicago schools, whose sala-
les range from $500 to 81, 900 per annum.
Each of these teachers without excep-
ton, is receiving higher salary than is
paid to any teacher of the same grade in
this county; and thus with better school
buildings, better furniture and more pleas
ant surroundings constitutes the "more
liberal inducements that draw our best
teachers from US.
We are hot an advocate of higher wa
ges. We think our teachers generally
receive full compensation for services
rendered although unquestionably there
are exceptional instances But we do ad-
vocate more liberality IN repairing, build
ing and furnishing school houses, and in
making them attractive through paper
ing, painting, fencing, setting shade trees,
and due exercise of cleanliness in and
out of the school house. This would act
as an "inducement no one acquainted
with the disposition of our best teachers
will question; and that it would well re,
pay the outlay in the increased efficiency
OF schools through its direct influence on
the minds of children needs no argument
of ours to prove.
We trust that a general movement 10
this direction will be made at the coming
annual school-meeting. k

SAFETY PETROLEUM LAMA new
lamp for burning petroleum has recently
been introduced in Germany, which is
said to have many peculiarities The
essential features of the lamp consists in
a reservoir of water in the upper portion
nearest the flame, so that the body of the
oil is not exposed to the danger of being
heated by proximity to the burning
wick. The petroleum is in a reservoir
below, and the pressure of the water
forces it,, drop by drop, up through a
tube to the wick, supplying it exactly in
proportion to the rapidity of combus-
ton. The arrangement Of the lamp is
such that, if overturned by any accident,
the water overfows the burning wick
and puts out the fame Immediately.
1t is claimed that when filled with two
pounds of petroleum and having a wick
three-fourths of an inch in width, it will
burn from sixty to eighty hours; conse-
quently, needing to be filed only orce
in from ten to fourteen days.
Another alleged advantage is that the
