Very Drou to Think OF.


Ifnot above being taught by man, use Dob
bins's Electric Soap next wash day. Used
without any wash boiler or rubbing board, and
used differently from any other soap ever made.
Itseems very droll to think of quiet, orderly
two hours light work on wash day, with no
heat and no steam; or smell of the washing
through the honse, instead of a long days hard
work; but hundreds of thousands ofwomen from
Nova Scotia to Texas have proved for themselves
that this is done by using Dobbins's Electric
Soap. Don't buy it. however, if too set in your
ways to use it according to directions, that are
simple as to seem almost ridiculous and so easy
that girl of twelve years can do a large washing
without being tired. 1t positively will not injure
the finest fabric, has been before the public for
fifteen years. and it's sale doubles every year. If
your grocer does not keep it, he will get it, as all
wholesale grocers keep it.

EDUCATIONAL COLUMN.

EDUCATIONAL COLUMN.
The topics below are taken from the
annual report Of the Kansas City
schools and were discussed during the
year in the teachers meetings of those
schools.
1. How many teachers keep out Of
ruts?
2, What knowledge is of most worth?
3. How pupils should stand and sit.
4. A clean and tidy room an index
of good order.
Will the teachers of Allen county
please give their opinions in regard to
the above subjects?
ASSISTANT EDITREss..
Map out in your own minds pro
gramme for each days work. You will
find it useful.
Make yourself thoroughly familiar
with the topics and lessons to be pre-
scented and studied every day, so that
the mind may accommodate itself to the
change of exercises, and that you may
be able to hear a lesson without hav-
ing your nose tied to the text book.
Remember that there are five days
in q week, and four weeks in month,
and that it is impossible to do in one
month what, in the nature of things,
will require three.
Cultivate the habit of finishing a
task within a prescribed time, and re-
quire the same of your pupils. Never
attempt to patch recitation.
In making your contract with direc-
tors and school boards, make the very
best bargain you can, and if you hire
for ten dollars per month, do just as
good work as though you were COM
manding a cool hundred. Remember
that when you are engaged to teach a
school, your influence, knowledge,
moral and intellectual culture, and
everything that you can give as a
teacher, are due your patrons and pu-
pills. Teach as faithfully, and energet-
ically, and honestly for small wages as
for large. Work not on the principle
of so-called political economy, but on
the principles of eternal justice.
The majority of teachers who will
enter our schools next fall are those
who will not have attended any school
or made any preparation during the
summer, for their work. There is no
reason why this should be 80. If it is
utterly impossible for this vast army
of teachers to attend some school or
Normal Institute, and we do not be-
lieve that it is, it is within the power
of everyone of them to keep posted up
on methods of instruction and the i'm
provements which are constantly be-
ing made in our educational system.
There are many excellent educational
books and periodicals which, for a
nominal sum, will be sent to the doors
of every teacher in the land. No teach
er ought to spend less than two hours
per day during the entire spring and
summer in reading and posting him
self for his next years work. But
many with six months license, with
a very meager knowledge to be taught,
and with no proper realization of the
duties and cares devOlving upon them,
are content to sink down into a state
of comparative ease and tranquility,
with no aspirations higher and nobler.
The acme of their good is reached.
They have license, and can teach

We cannot do anything moderately. We DOM
take tune to eat or drink. When the season of
social gatherings comes on in Winter, we rush
from one to another, night after night, until we
become tired out and the system is run down.
In Summer we fly to the watering places and idle
away our time in luxury. No wonder that We
become ''blaze' in middle life. Then we try
medicines to recupeia ate, and often resort to
unfortunate stimulation in the vain hope of WOO
ing back our youthful energies. Every Euro
pean sees this. As things are, the best remedy,
when the physical powers begin to decline, is
the Peruvian Syrup, which has for many years
been used in exactly this direction. 1t is the
best tonic known to man and the least injurious.
1t restores wasting energies, strengthens the
system against the insidious malsdies which are
induced by weakness, and builds up the system
properly and effectively. Sold by dealers gen.

The Enormous Advance in the Price
of Printing Paper.

The price of printing paper has run
up enormously. Within the past three
months it has advanced nearly one hun.
dred per cent. This is grievous hard
ship upon newspaper publishers, au-
thors and all others who deal in prin.
ter's ink. The paper manufacturers are
reaping rich harvest, but the large
class to whom we have referred, and
the numerous persons who make their
living by the employment which
they have obtained in this way
are great sufferers. There is
but one way in which relief can be
afforded, and it ought to be applied Al
once. 1t is to break up the monopoly
enjoyed by the paper manufacturers and
TO pass the bill now before Congress to
admit paper and all articles that enter
into its manufacture, free Of duty. In
order that the voice of the Press Asso-
citation of Mississippi may be authora-
lively expressed in favor of this meas
me, we would respectfully call
upon II. II. Henry Esq, the Pres
ideut of the State Association to
make an urgent appeal to Congress on
behalf of the bill, and to solicit the
Mississippi delegation to give ii their
earnest support.
Let the whole press of the country
speak out, and speak with one united
voice.

Hon. james R. Chalmers.
vicksburg Commercial.

Vicksburg Commercial.
The admirable selection of the Democratic
District Convention held in this city in
1875, of a standard bearer in the person OF
Gen. james r. Chalmers, of Coahoma, and
his heroic and well directed leadership OF
what was then considered a forlorn hope,
placed the Shoestring District firmly within
the pale of the Democratic certainty. His
faithful performance of his promises after
his entrance into the National House of
Representatives, his advocacy of measures
devised for the material advancement of the
voters of his District regardless of their po-
litical or physical complexion, treasured
him triumphant reelection, and the hand.
some majority given him by the colored
voters of his District manifested clearly the
appreciation of many of his former oppon-
ents, of his public services as a Democrat.
and an unpartizan public servant

A large majority of the citizens of our
county, we are sure, will read with no
little satisfaction the following from
a late Natchez Democrat:
The contract for doing the grading, bridg-
ing and tieing Of the Natchez, Jackson and
Columbus railroad from the Kinds county
line to Jackson, was yesterday signed by
the contractors and the President of the
Company. Under the provisions of this
contract, work will be commenced at or
near Jackson about March LIST, and is to be
finished by the first day of December, il not
sooner. The cost of the earthwork, it is es-
timated, will be $4,000, and the bridging
and tieing of the road $4,000, making a
total of $4,000 for preparing the route for
the laying of the rails through Kinds coun-
ty to Jackson. 1t is shought that $1S0, 900
cash will be realized from the sale of
the 100000 of Kinds county bonds.
After deducting the $4,000 for preparing
the rcad-bed, there will be left $105, 900 for
the purchase Of iron for the road in Kinds
county, which will be nearly, if not quite
enough, to iron this part of the road. Messrs.
DutSn Il Co. we understand, are also will
ling to contract at the same rate for the
building of the gap between Martin and
the Kinds county line, and the contract
will in all probability, be awarded to
them as soon as proper arrangements for
doing so can be made.
