The Joliet Republican is responsible
for the following: "Tom W., of Lock.
port, has been buying Chicago granting
paint The parties of whom he purchas,
ed undertook to make him believe that
the granting was done by the painter,
and was not in the paint. They found
they couldn't fool him, so they sold him
the paint already grained The knots
were put up in cans-the large and small
by themselves. He called for one can of
each size"
1t is gratifying to note the election to
the Forty second Congress Of Hon. Samu.
ell Shellabarger, from the Seventh Ohio
district. There are several reasons for
feeling good over the result first. the
Judge is one of the ablest and purest of
our public men; secondly, he is a most
thorough Republican; thirdly, he beat
the President of the Little Miami Rail
road Company, who, like the Presidents
OF other railroad companies, hoped to
use the men in his employ for his own DO
litical preferment; and fourthly it was a.
very close district; and filthy, the con
test so nearly resembles the condition of
things in this district that we derive
comfort ard consolation from the result.

PERHAPS YOU KNOW HIM !

Strange as it may seem, there are men
in Kenosha County who decry Teachers
Institutes,-who attribute every increase
in teachers wages and every innovation
OF ancient customs in schools and methods
of government to this cause. Some Of
these human remnants of past age go so
far as to declare positively that the prin.
cipal thing done at Institutes is to devise
means for advancing salaries; that gener
ally this is accomplished by entering into
league to teach for just 50 much money
"a considerable advance on previous fig
ures) and not one cent less. All we can
say in reply is that people who make such
statements are either deficient in com.
mon sense or aoorse. Deficient in common
sense if they 5e5ieue any such thing, and
e0orse if they make such statements and
do not believe them.
We feel called upon to write a few
words on this subject, because several
District Officers have felt called upon I"
very recently to make statements similar
to the above. We have such one in our

consequence, the school is poor, and for
once he tells the truth when he saws:
We might just as well throw away our
money" After such an experience of
course the next teacher is engaged at
lower salary if possible.
No. sir; my "Pre- Historic" enemy
Teachers do not gather at Institutes and
form themselves into associations for the
purpose of "devising ways to increase
their salary" but to devise means to oct

PRoTAN1TT AND STovEPIPEs.--A
funny man says in an exchange that
profsnity is more common in Novem-
Der than any other mouth because tits
the month in which stoves are put up
for winter use. Now there is not the
least necessity for being profane or
even getting vexed while putting up a
stove or stovepipe. The directions
forsuccessfully putting up stove pipes
are simple and the first one thereof Is:
Find out first whether you know a ny
thing about stove pipe, for simple as
it looks, there is a right end and a
wrong end to a piece Of stove pipe.
just as there is a right side and
wrong side to cloth. and if you do not
know anything about it. examine or
send for timer. Stove pipe is made
with one end Of each joint q trihe
smaller than the gauge, and the other
q trife larger. The small end has
a swedge-mark. and the large end is
plain except In Russia pipe where
both ends are swedged.
Having learned this much, take
the pieces of pipe you wish to join,
and put the small end Of one within
the large end Of the other, being care
full to keep the seams in line, and in
nine cases out of ten your pipe, unless
battered and abused, will go together
as a telescope opens aud closed. Ell
bows are made in the same way, with
a large and small end, and can be ad-
justed without curse, in fact, stove
pipe that will not go together
smoothly, is not worth curse.
Another good idea is. when you
want a piece of pipe don't tell the
timer that you want about six
inch pipe. you guess. aud to not try
to make him believe you know better
than he does, whether piece will fit
or not, but take piece Of pipe to the
shop and get it matched properly. and
you need have no trouble. By
observing these directions, you need
not have your fingers cut and torn,
SCOT run up your sleeve or down the
bosom of your best shirt. your temper
need not be rufflsd nor your nose
smutty, and best IF all, you need not
curse all the stovepipe makers. and
then have to take it back and hire
one to do what little good sense and
careful observation would have ac-
complished without q groWl.
