THE ELEGANT SHAwL.-A man
crossed the Chelsea ferry to Boston
one morning. and turned into Com
mercial street for his usual glass. AS
he poured out the poison, the proprl-
etors wife came in and ..idently
asked for $500, to purchase an eIe-
CANT shawl she had seen at JordaA,
Marsh & Go. s. He drew from his
treast- pocket a we'll filled pocketbook
and counted her out the money. The
man pushed aside the glass untouched
and lying down the zen cents, depart
ed in silence. That very morning
his devoted christian wife had asked
him for $40 to buy a cheap cloak
that she might attend church.
He Grossly told her that he hadn' t
the money. As he left the saloon he
thought Here | am helping to pay
for $500 cashmeres for Il at man
wife, but mine asks me in van for a
ten dollar cloak. | cant stand this
I have spent my last dime for drink.
When the next pay day came, that
meek, loving wife was surprised with
a beautiful cloak from her reformed
husband. She could scarcely believe
her own eyes and ears AS he laid 1t
on the table, saying There, Emma,
is present for you have been fool
long enough. Forgive me for the
past and | will never touch liquor
again.
She threw her arms around his
neck and the hot tears told her heart
felt Joy as she sobbed out, Charlie. |
thank YOU thousand times T! | never
expected so nice cloak. You could
not have selected a prettier one. This
seems like other days. Come now, !
have supper all warm. You are SO
good AMI | am 50 happy The great,
strong, noble fellow couIdn t hide the
tears as he related the tact to me. He
said it WAS the happiest hour in ten
years. Ny friend where does your

School Commissioners.

The Board met on Tuesday last, all the
members present.
The minutes of last meeting were read
and approved.
Miss J. Ruly was examined as a candidate
for the scholarship in the Normal School,
and appointed by the Board to the same.
A petition was read from six patrons of
the Burns school, No 8, in the fifth district,
protesting against the confirmation of the
teacher appointed to that school, and
charging her with not keeping time and
also partially. On motion it was resolved,
inasmuch as the petition contains serious
charges against the teacher, which should
be preferred before the Board of Trustees
OF the school, that this petition be laid
over until next meeting.
Mr.. Thomas Brown, trustee of Pleasant
Hill school, appeared before the Board,
asking for some repairs for that school
house. On motion the subject was referred
to Commissioner G. BIddle.
