EASTERN NORMAL ScHooL-The catalogue
of the Eastern Normal School at Castine for the
year ending May 20, 1875, shows that the num-
Der of pupils for the fall term was 121; for the
winter term So; for the spring term 157. The
school has continued under the charge of G. T.
Fletcher, A. NJ, teacher of long and varied
experience, who shows himself admirably fit
ted for the position. He is assisted by Miss
Helen B. Coffin, Miss Mary E. Hughes, Miss
Eliza c. Lufkin and Messrs. F. w. Conrad and
j. W. Dresser. At first there was much doubt
respecting the locating of this school at Cas-
tine, but the people of Castine took so deep an
interest in the success of the school, and Mr..
Fletcher has proved so able an instructor that
since September Z, 1867, when the school begun
with thirteen pupils, it registered six hundred
different scholars during the first six years of
is existence, and is to-day more aourishing
than ever. The school, year consists of two
terms of twenty weeks each. The next term
begins August H. 1875.

THE ALLEGRETTI ICEBERG.-The Iceberg"
is the only Refrigerator scientifically construct
ed so as to secure the one absolutely preserving
temperature which nature provides in its sup
ply of ice; namely, 80 degrees Fahrenheit. No
invention of man can ever hope to excel this
provision of nature; for below this point, even
one degree of temperature, all vegetable life
will be destroyed, and every degree of temper
allure added above that point only deducts SO
much from the efficiency of the preserving
power.
The highest awards over all competitors at
the last annual Exhibitions of the American

fail to call and examine them at the Wheeler
