The little villages that nestle down
among the Massachusetts, hills are charm
ing retreats, but do not know that |
should care to spend more than five years
OF life at time in any one of them. And
as Tor being retreats, I'm not so sure of
that, come to think about it. You stand
out in pretty bold relief if you are resi-
dent, still more so if you are Il visitor. For
instance, therc was an engaged couple in
Williamsburg not natives to the manner
born, but city swells on visit to rcla-
tiycs. Very few of the villagers were ~
norant OF what was going on. When the
young man went out with his sweetheart,
II must have been particularly gratifying
Tor him to see himself pointed out by one
urchln to another with 81 say, Bill YOU
see that there fellow without no hinge in
his back he's goin' to marry that there
gal When the thing first began there
was later sitting up than usual naturally.
And one OF the ladies stepped in one morn
ing, smiling suspiciously 81 say, there
amt no one sick in this here house, or
nothln', is there | seen light burnin'
nigh onto twelve O'Clock last night, but |

The number Of boys in this class Ia small,
but TO 1t belonged this boy Johnson Dur.
ing the fall the officers state that his head
was frequentls looked over, his hair cut
three or four times, and every trace of lice
exterminated There is q rule that the
teachers in each school shall see that those
boys who have not sufficient pride to lead
them to do ii voluntarily, shall comb each
others hair with fine tooth comb twice
each week, on Wednesdays end Saturdays,
and, as a general thing this rule is lived up
to.
But II seems that johnson avoided scrub
bling and was lousy when he went away.
Where the boys are coming and going so
continuously 1t Is impossible to avoid an
occasional importation of lice, but at this
time il was supposed they were mostly
gone. An occasional examination on Fri
day revealed but small number that had
them, and these few were among the small
boys. u The fact that johnson, at the age
of sixteen, should be lousy and never men
ton it, and even go so far as to conceal the
TACT, may afford some explanation of the
character of the boy. And his story that
all the other boys in the school were in the
same condition is certainly in the same con-
ditiOn is certainly false. A very large ma
iority of the boys are very clearly in their
habits and persons. They are taught to be
so, and these teachings are SO pcrsistcntly
pressed that occasionally they are impa-
ticIt.
The officers of the institution appear TO
he gentlemen and ladies of culture, princi-
pie and humane ideas, and are apparently
doing IA work for good that is not appreci-
ated by those who are not frequent visitors
there Their duties are combining and ar
duous, and they have discouragcments that
no one can comprehend who has mot .at
some time had the control and management
and education of one hundred and forty, of
very peculiar early training and antecedcnts
on his hands. But thus far they have been
very successful, and it is with sorrow that
they read the attack which is made by the
Stdnddrd. in which the institution is STYLED
a " den Of vermin," and its officers " little
better than brutcs.' They have always
welcomed visitors at any time in the day,
and they now specially desire friends and
enemies to come. Any one interested NAV
call at any time and be assured of hearty
welcome. They will be afforded every fa-
cility for thorough examination. and may
see for themselves the cleanliness of the in.
s,itution the condition of the boys cloth
ing, heads and persons. They can also ex-
anime the beds and the food-in fact every
thing connected with the workings of tie
institution, and so judge for themselves if
these revelations" be true. Those who
know most of the school are those who
most admire it.

THE COMING OF THE GREAT
SHow--It is a fixed fact that Old
John Robinson, the veteran man.
ager, with the largest show on
earth, will visit our city on Fridays
September 4th. Two mammoth
bulletin boards have been erected
upon which will be displayed the
| ictorial5 that describe infinitely
the many novelties to be witness
ed in the "Great Worlds Fair of
Wonders" The success achieved
by the management of this gigan-
tic amusement enterprise is due to
the merit and magnitude of the
organization-John Robinson diff
fers from all other managers-his
show to-day is more large and va
ried than any other travelling ex-
hibition in the world. No ordinary
combination would suit him-re-
CARELESS of the cost he will and
must have the best For extent
and variety his menagerie is I'M
qualled. In addition to over fifty
cages of living wild animals, he ex-
hibits at each place he visits the
following novelties that are not
owned by any other show in the
country: You can see a living
Giraffe, giant Ostrich, huge Sea
Lions, and the only three-horned
and three-eyed sacred Bovine ever
on exhibition. Robinson's is the
only show that has an aquarium
in which are exhibited the huge
denizens of the vast deep. The
Circus is said to be superior in al,
of its attractions. In this issue of
our Weekly will be found the
mammoth advertisement of the
great show.

There is no use in manuring land
to grow to weeds; in buying tools
to rust out under a stone wall: in
erecting Ouildings to rot away for
want of paint and care, In buying
animals and leaving them to the
unhindered action of disease; in
accommodating manure to fill the
air with its exhalations and the
brooks with its teachings; in buy.
ing land to yearly lose its strength
and virtue in growing crops to
feed unheeded insects. Yet more
than one Of these defects may be
seen on almost every farm in the
country, and the extent to which
they lower the average success of
our farmers is greater than would
be believed.
