Please inform me through your pa

ing address (the title Of esquire being
used in this country as one Of respect
John Smith, ESQ, M. D. J. IT,. 2.
Ansa0ea Titles Of respect are Mr..
Mrs, Miss, and Esq, but two titles of
the same class should not be applied to
the same name. IF the profession Of Q
person be known, the professional title
alone should be used, and the person
addressed is shown greater respect by
tho use Of real than a fictitious title.
In the instance given the fictitious title.
Esq. detracts from the respect shown
the person who is an M. d. The only
exceptions to this rule is when title
is conferred as q purely honorary one
by some society or by 3 government.
Thus it is proper to say, the Rev. John
Smith, D. d., LII. D. or Sir John Smith,

HIRING TEACHERS.

The time has arrived when districts
Which did not hire for the school year
last fall are casting about for q teach
er to take charge Of the summer
school The benefits to be derived
from hiring teachers for the year have
been frequently spoken OF, yet in many
schools a good teacher is engaged for
the winter term, and then anybody to
teach the little ones" is hired for the
summer. a greater mistake could not
be made. Even a casual visitor can
detect the difference between a school
in which the same teacher has been
retained for several terms, and one
which changes its teacher every term.
The former is classified as nearly as
a district school can be, and the school
works tremendously as q q0boze. The
last lacks system and concert Of &C
tion. My advice to school boards is to
hire the same teacher for the summer
school as you had for the winter
school; and if satisfaction is given
this summer, then next fall hire the
same teachea for another gear.
The principle Of hiring cheap teach
ers for the summer term is false econ
omy. It is fact that everyone can
not teach a summer school. A false
start makes hard work all through
school life. Get q teacher that suits
you and keep him. No matter if you
do have to pay him more than others,
it viii pay in the end. A good teach
CT is rarely paid too much, and poor
one is oyerpaid il he teaches fo r moth
ing.

A On ast;ion Of Color.

The Rochester Fnpress gravely dis
courses: 'In driving in the night a
white horse is readily seen by others,
but the driver cannot see over white
horse as easily as over a dark colored
one. In one case you can see another's
horse better than he can sec yours,
and in the other he can see yours bet
ter than you can see his. If we ever
should get intoxicated we should pre-
fer TO have the white horse, but II the
intoxication were confined to the
other fellow we should much rather
he should have the white one. If both
horses were white, both horses could
see each other better. II both horses
wers black, both drivers could see
over them better. This applies to
driving on bare ground. If the ground
ID covered with snow, the conditions
are Just the reverse. Like many 9th
ers, there are two sides to this horse
question. In fact, it depends entirely
on circumstances when the gray mare
will prove the better horse.

Education in Alaska.

hQuCaCI0n IN Alaska.
/ The Rev. Sheldon Jackson, ID. y. OF
Washington, who visited Alaska last
Summer, recently spoke. in that city
on '"The Claims Of Alaska Upon the
Country for Education" The Wash
ington Times gives the following brief
summary Of few OF the many impor-
tant and interesting facts mentioned
by DR.. Jackson
Attention was called to the vast
area Of Alaska (580,107 square miles,
it's immense number Of islands, rival
ing those Of the great archipelagoes Of
the Southern Pacific; it's wonderful
glaciers; it's hot and mineral springs
and its mighty river, the Yukon, which
is 1900 miles in length, and navigable
by the largest river steamers for 1900
miles, and whose delta, with its five
mouths, is seventy miles in width.
The resources Of tzae country are
fur, fish and lumber. These are al
most inexhaustible. The fur trade
alons wish repay all that was spent in
the Fs4sssAase Of the land. The waters
swsmn with salmon, cod and other fish
Of great commercial value. In Alaska
are stored also the reserves Of lumber.
which may yet supply the world when
the more accessible resources have be-
come exhausted. Yellow cedar, white
pine, hemlock and balsam fiji are the
chief varieties.
The climate Of the interior is cold,
as represented. That upon the coast
is modified by the gulf stream, which
sweeps the southern shore, and is in
character similar to that of Washing
ton.
The Aleutian district is suitable for
paaturage, and the time may come
when grazing will be q profitable bus
| mess. The population is at the least
calculation 10000. these are citizens
Of the United States without the al
Iyantages Of citizenship, and involved
lin the deepest ignorance. and ruled
onlyby superstition and brute force.
Their is neither law nor protection OF
courts. The only rights guaranteed
are to those who have might to pro-
tect them, There are no schools, ex-
cept one or two started by native
workers. Only since June 1916, have
these been established. The natives
manifest great desire for common
school education and for the introduce
Ition Of Christianity. This great land
InoW appeals to this country, part Of
which it has become, and Dr.. Jackson
enforced this claim by earnest and elo-
1quent appeals to those who heard him,
land by arguments Of the most forciblo
and various character. In closing, he
begged all who lad influence and au-
Ithority to use them for the great cause
thus presented.

DIDN'T PORT HER HELM

The collision on the Thamesby which the
Princess Alice and her precious cargo of
seven hundred Young people, were sent to
the bottom, has been fully investigated;
and a. the result oi that investigation. We
are told that the Princess Alice didn't
port her helm, but ran square end on and
hence the calamity that shocked the civil
lied world And now. that We know that
the Princess Alice didn't port her helm
but ran square end on, who is 10 answer

dreadful delinquency! Upon whom shall

nobody will be punished and few months
more and the appalling calamity will be

is followed by the loss Of 700 precious
lives; but, for all the committee of inquiry
did or suggested, another Princess Alice
may neglect to port the helm and run
square end on even tomorrow, and the
same verdict will be repeated. An unnamed
something or somebody that neither the
law nor avenging hands can reach, will be
to blame for it; and thus, as in the case in

that puzzles the party leaders is not what

if these leaders fully understood the temper
of the people, they would first give attcn-

and then, if time hangs heavily on their
hands, let them commence their work of
president making. And now mark it, the
party that presses that work. to the exclu-
sion Of urgent and important business, (as
the Republican party, under the lead of
Senator Blaine, seems disposed to do), will

IL the history Of the havoc wrought by
the late epidemic could be written, it would
paint scenes of suffering, destitution and
death, of the horrors of which We of the
North, have no adequate conception. Every
day seems TO add score of sorrowful sto-
ries to the thousands already told, and yet
the half will never be heard of. Upon the
life of Peter A. Tighe, deceased, of Mem
phis, New Haven life insurance company
has issued policy for $4,000. The surviv-
ing heirs of Tighc have applied for the
payment Of the money, but have failed to
obtain il, because of their inability to fur
nish the required proofs. The company
feel well assured that Tighe is dead but
il has no proof the fact. The doctor who
attended him is dead; the nurse who waited
on him is dead; the undertaken who cof-
fined him is dead, and the minister who
officiated at his funeral is dead, With all
these witnesses in another world there is
not one living in this who can, of his own
personal knowledge, make oath that Mr..
Tighe is not yet among the living. The
only resource left TO the heirs is TO resurrcct
the body, and bring witnesses who can,
beyond any peradventure, identify it as
that of Peter A. Tighe.
