PLAIN TALK ADeUf sCneoIs.

Mr.. M. H. Putney, the Superintendent Of
Schools in Andover, N. H. has made
unique report, in which some Of the teach.
ers are handled without gloves and none
of them are fattered. He enunciatss sotns
maxims. some of which are ~ fbl1ows.
That school officers should be elected
for their ability or efficiency, or at least
for their good sense and not because ..it il
Toms turn, or Dick wants it, or Harry
belongs to your party" or your church, or
married my wife's sister.
That prudential committees have other
duties than providing for impccunioas fe-
male relatives. ..
That teachers are born, not made, and
that no amount of schooling wonld fit
some people to show child the way to
the nearest school house.
That a good teacher is cheap and s poor
one dear at any price. aa
That babies should not always be sent to
school to "get them out Of the way (for
a good teacher may be an Indifferent
nurse) or youth kept at home to ''do
chores"
That building, SO possessed. Of dirt,
decay, disease, discomfort, disagreeahle.
ness ahd encouragement, as to Be totally
unit for anything else, will not necessarf.
ly make good school house. sa
That simply paying mans school tar
will no more insure bis children . good
education than paying minister's a.. viii
give him warranty deed OF heaven.
The schools at East Andover are touched
off as follows: g8N@
Citizens of East Andover, . word with
you privately. We have the most money
of any district in town. Our children are
no more totally deprsved than our neigh
bors, and they are born quite - old and
equally as bright. We ought to have the
best school, and we havn't got Il. Com.
pared with what it ought to be, Il h
backward. shiftless chaotic apology for
school. And the fault is ours. We shun
the schoolhouse as we would q pest, we
stay away from school meeting and away
from school; we compel somebody with
no children, nor hopes Of any, TO serve ~
prudential committee, and having drafted
him into the service, do nothing to advise
or assist him. We crowd sixty scholars
into school house with only forty seats.
Some of us turn our children like turkeys
into the road at early dawn, and Il starry
eve brings them ike turkeys home to
roost, that is the end of our solicitude. In
short. we allow our school to be kicked
about like football for amusement. or
used as billy to break somebody's head
with. Men and brethren think Of these
things. Come out to the school meeting.
grade your school, select good commit
tee, help him to select good teachers,
watch them, visit the school, see that your
children are there punctually and regular
ly, and let US see il in some way We can
not get the worth of our money out Of our
schools, and not leave our children 10
grow up to curse us for their ignorance
and our stupidity and folly; or else &C.
knowledge that we believe our whole
duty to our children consists in getting
them safely through the measles and
chicken-pox, and devise our share Of the
school money to endow lunatic asylum

The philosophical candidate for the Presidency
spent the day yesterday he has been in the habit
OF spending his Saturdays for the last fifteen years
woodchopping at Chappaqua. The impression pre-

the continuous choppng feats which have become
famous only Of late, has very nearly decmated

Ito suppose. He selects carefully the trees
which he dooms to the axe, choosing those only
which are of an inferior quality or have defects
about them, such dead limbs or deformed and
knotted trunks those which overshadow and

These he fells at once but his main exercise his

does that 'just as the twig Is bent the trees in

ldemesnc, he opens 1t up and beauties It,.
On arriving at his chopping place yesterday he
found himself more alone than has been his fortune
since his nomination. Mr.. Alvin J. Johnson and
Mr.. Shaw accompanied him, and Mr.. Storrs, Gin

advised him TO rest, TO betake himself to some
genuine seclusion, where neither politicians, photo.

busy himself among books and woods; but the
indomtable industry that made the man still
asserts itself. When he reached the Grand Central

THE BROOKLYN POLICE REORGANIZATION.

The greatest anxiety is exhibited by the legion
OF applicants for positions under the newly organ

not endanger their valuable health by over anxiety

us, and dog days are coming shortly after
"rosy June" The law provides for the
increase CT the Police Department by the
addition OF no less than 1872 men, which increased
heretofore patrollef by the police being
decidedly too extensive to be circumferenced by
the very limited force at command. This increase

the Board OF Audit must also provide
for the payment OF this extra force

be done upon tho petition OF the Police Com.
missioners this week or the next at the furthcst.
The pay OF Brooklyn patrolmen Is but $1,000 per
year. In New York patrolmcn receive $1,000 per
annum.

FOREIGN LIST.


CLAF.TRAP AND CAYT.-Invalid reader,
if yoa are unwise enough to put yourself
outside OF any OF the mock tonics guar
anteed to contain mo diffasive stimu-
liant, you will inevitably come to grief
Ask your physician ii any liquid prepar-
alton, destitute Of stimulating proper
ties, is worthy of the name of tonic.
He will tell you no. Shan all such nau-
seous catchpennies. Plantation Bitters,
the most wholesome invigorant in the
world, owes the rapidity with which it
relieves the disordered stomach and the
shattered nerves to the ditfusive agent
which conveys its medicinal ingredients
to the seat of the complaint. That
agent is the spirit Of the sugar cane, the
most nutritious and agreeable Of all the
varieties of alcohol The medicinal in.
gradients of the Bitters, valuable as they
are, would be comparatively useless
without this disiributive basis. They
would ferment and sour. Beware, as
you hope for health, of the horrible COM
pounds of refuse drugs in state of fer
mentation which humbugs are endeayor-
ing to foist upon the public as medi-
cines. I HiAA eod-d&w
