4 Wonderful Record.

Myriads of so-cafIed speciffc.n and
cures for Rhsumatism have already
been brought before the public. and
many OF them have even been en-

many Of these "LiBiBeDts," "Oils, f"
etc., so widely advertised and freely
recommended for Rheumatism and
painful complaints of a similar nature,
have genuine merit and will relieve
certain types Of the complaints
named; but when Rheumatism, Men,
ralgia. and kindred diseases have be-
come chronic and threaten serious re-
suits, you may rest assured that they
will help but very little. Although
not recommended as "infailible,"
the peculiar qualities of st. Jacobs Oil

which may be termed "chronic," and

there are fifty girls attending the
Cornell, New York, University, thir-
teen of whom are in the freshman
class also one hundred and thirty
four girls attending the Michigan
University, thirty-tbree of whom will
graduate this year. Girls, suppose we

RULINGS on THE SCHOOL LAW.
By State Superintendent Thompson.

1877. The School board cannot com
pei children attending school to pro
cure and use other books than those
on State-list. The sch DOL law nowhere
gives the district board the right to
adopt or select school-books Sec. 81
devolves this duty on the State Supt.
In answer to the continual change
of textbooks" take occasion to say
that all such changes are without au-
thority of LAWN defiance OF law.
indeed.
1873. When a teacher should be paid
depends entirely on the terms of the
contract, which should always include
this item. Teachers may be hired by
the month, day or year, as the board
prefers and the teacher agrees. When
the times of payment are not speci-
fed, monthly payments would be-
understood, usually.
139. School-boards have the same
right to furnish textbooks for use In
school as any other apparatus" that
Is when the district has voted a tax
for the purchase of apparatus" or
textbooks"
40. Great loss has often occurred
from the want of suitable books in
which to keep a record of the district
business. 1t will be found economy
to furnish school officers with all
needed helps for the discharge of their
lawful duties.
al. A teacher discharged from the
school should be paid to day of his
dismissal, no longer.
142. The teachers right to infllct
corporal punishment in school is not
conferred by statute but has been re-
peatedly affirmed by the courts. But
the teacher may be held responsible
for any abuse of this prerogative,
such as cruel and unusual modes of
punishment, or that which Is dispro-
portioned to the offense. No general
rule, can be laid down, but each indi-
vidual case must be judged on its
merits.
143. Where one member of a School
board leaves the district, or a vacancy
In the board occurs In any way, it IL
not legal for the remaining members
of the board to go on and do business.
They should first have the third men,
bers appointed or elected, and then
the business.
IA. The director and moderator
have no right to give orders on the
county treasurer to any person but
he district treasurer, and If they are
given the county treasurer should not
pay them.
145. 1t Is not illegal for a County
to engage in teaching
provided his work in his office is not
'uficient to occupy all his time. In
I'll the larger counties there ia enough
legitimate and necessary work to Oc-
,upy the whole of County Superin-
endent's time; but whenever he
inds it necessary to engage in some
'ther employ teaching is on
many accounts the most desirable. A |
Superin tendent who teaches a part of
he year. will be quite as likely as any
'ther to keep himself in sympathy
With the educational spirit of his
county, and keep up his appreciation
If the difficulties under which teach
RS labor.
146. Should it be necessary to d.
tide district while school is in ses- |
ion, the County Superintendent can .
md should so arrange it that the con-
ract made with the teacher may be ;
carried out in good faith.
