County School superintendent.

am in favor of creating the office OF
County Superintendent OF Schools, and
for my opinion in this matter l am pre-.
pared to give at least four excellent rea.
sons.
First. That it will furnish highly
respectable, q very easy and toierably
lucrative position for sundry worthy gen.
tlemen who might else "blush unseen" !"
Second, may possibly chance to be
one of the said worthy gentlemen.
The third is deducible from the first
two viz: if do not get this office I am
pretty sure never to get any.
The fourth, last and by far the greatest
and farthest reaching in its magnificent
results, which affects all classes Of soci-
ETY., and the remotest posterity, is that
we'll, have forgotten just what it is. As
soon however as can remember it or
find some fellow who can will write to
you again. 1901.

Steam Fire-Engine.

Now is Wellington's opportunity.
We need fire-en gine, bnt hitherto the
expense has been an insurmountable
objection. Now we can get one at al
most our own price. Toledo has got
waterworks with the reservoir at so
great an altitude (over 200 feet above the
city, that they have only to attach a
hose to the supply pipes, and the water
is forced over the highest buildings.
This renders the splendid new steam
fire engines with which the city Is sup
plied, practically useless to them and
they offer an engine that cost them
$4,000 for $1,000. They are nearly as good
as new, requiring only new suction
hose to put them in good working or
der. We commend this opportunity to
the attention of our city fathers and
hope they will not let so favorable an
opportunity slip.

great. Before submitting to the opera
ton, che tried DIR. Giles Liniment rub

The Inflammation disappeared, the pas
sage became clear, and she was through

iment internally, a tea-spoOnful three
times a day, in a wineglass of water.

A TALE FOR THE TIMES.

Jones was as pcIceablc a man rs ever
lived. He was sober, honest, respected.
He had never took any interest in Il dog
fight. Had never been known to pawn
somebody elSc's watch. And never had
attempted to steal 3 saw mill. Jones'
charact er WAS above rerroach. He was
Il shining light i'll society. All Jonosville
Looked up TO and hon0Ted him. But Il
change came-a fearful, lrefnl change.
In an evil hour Jones accepted the nomi
nation for stable of his native village.
Alas! Poor Jones! Little did tic under
stand the deceit and treachety of the
wicked world. His eyes were soon open
ed, however. In less than q week after he
was nominated tLe opposition had fully
and ccuciusively established tho follow
ing damaging charges against his chrr-
acter.
/. That be was q free lover and an H.
| tidel. =. That he had fed his neighbours
| hens on poisoned corn. 3. That he had
| broken his m0ther-in- laws jaw with an
| iron boot Jack. 4. That he on one 0cca-
sion gave n whole wagon load of green
watcrmelons to All orphan asylum. 5.
! That he had served term in the State
prison for horse stealing 6. That he had
set fire to his next nci glhor's barn, mere
ly because he refused to lend him q hoe
!. That because he found 4 button off
his shirt, he tied his wife to the bed post
| and mashed in three Of her ribs with a
stove-pokcr. 8. That his chief Sunday
| amusements We're cock-t. ghting aud card
playing. 0. That he sold his vote every
| year regularly to the highest bidder. TO-.
! That he wasn't fit for the place anyhow.
These charges, although without the
| slightest foundation, were rcl,yiousIy be-
lieved by the majority Of the voters of
Jonesvlle. And Jones' political goose
was cooked. His chances for being ell
ected were not worth three cents on q
dollar. When Jones passed along the
street his ncigiibors looked at him with
SUSPICION. and crossed over on the other
side. Jones was a miserable being. The
day of town meeting came at last, and
his opponent scooped in the constable
ship by two-thirds vote. The anti
Jones party swept their candidates irto
ofIiuo on the tidal wave CT popularity,
and poor Jones was left pcrched high up
on tho spihcnountcd picket fence OF
despair. Jones will never run for Office
again, not even for president. He says
it is too great strain on the chara ctcr
ifhe can regain the esteem of his neigh
bors by grubbng along in the Old way
| he intends to do it, and leave office seek
ing to people vf cast-irou reputation.
Jones is just coming to lis senses.

CHLORAL AS AN ANTIDoTE FOR STHYCu-
NISE.-An instance Of the prompt and
successful use Of chloral as an anti,lote
in a cast ofst"ychnina poisoning is cir
cunlst;intially narrated in Nature: A
favorite Skye terrier had accidentally
obtained and eaten the poison, which
was intended for mice. The amount ta-
ken by thc dog was probably about Il
was rigid and apparently Efcless, except
having an occasional spasm. The owner
consulted the authorities aud found that
a dose of chloral hydrate was the antiGote
prescribed in such cases. To kill u rab-
bit, u grains of the choral is sufficient !:
the dog was twice the weight of the
rabbit, and the owner of the terrier
therefore proceeded to inject As grains of
chloraI Gin solution) under it's skin.
Aboug fifteen minutes afterwards, sup
posing the dog was dead, the owner ap
piled his boot to it, probably telling Il
little disgustcd with the result of.his ex-
pertinent. To his great surprise the ter
rler struggled to his feet. Shortly after
wards it took some milk, and suhse-
quently, though not for a time very live
~, it seemed none the worse for its exne-
rience. The essential point in this treat.
ment is that the dose of chloral should
be strong enough to- kill; otherwise it
may not be sufficient to overcome the
effect of the strychpipe.
