Trim the edge around the points with

If you are an amateur, and wish to

troubled by the oil spreading, try this
method Of preventing it: Dissolve some

AlfOnsO's Affinity.

officer of Gen. Rosecrans' staff, that
the Duchess of Ossuns, who is mention

Salm. Salm, who figured for q time 30

Seeking Nest.Eggs in America.

An English baronet's son, investing
largely in Texan lands, explains the
present mania for securing 'nest-eggs"
in America upon the ground Of the
growing belief that Albert Edward will
be the last king OF England. He ad-
mits, however. that the revolution or
change, Whatever it may be, will not take
the form Of blood or shooting irons.
The cause Of this exodus Of the younger
sons OF nobility is really to be sought
nearer the surface. Nobody is making
money in England, and not much is 60
ing on in the colonies. It takes an act
OF parliament and substantial assistance
to get farmers TO settle in Manitoba;
India is no longer the heaven Of the ex-
ploring merchants, and 30 they are more
and more turning their eyes TO the

The Greatest Beer Drinkers.

An up town man, who was q great OBJ
server, told reporter OF the Kingston
Freeman that the greatest lager beer
drinkers were the common house fly;
that rs long as they could get st beer
tap, glass of beer, or even an empty
key, they would stick to it rs long as
there was drop left. Don't they get
drunk" inquired the reporter. NO."
the other said, "they don't appear to.
They don't appear to get filled; up a man
undoubtedly would in short time.
Why" said he, those flies sit and drink
beer all day long, and seem to grow fat
on it," This explodes the basis OF one Of
DIR. Franklin's rules against drinking
stimulauts. The doctor claimed that an
finals would not drink stimulants. The
doctor claimed that animals would not
drink liquor, and gave that AZ a reason
why man should not drink it. No doubt
there are people to-day who read in the
old spelling book DR.. Franklin's story
about a man who filled trough with
liquor and drove his cattle, horses and
hogs to it to see il they would drink il;
also trying to get his cats and dogs to
take sip of it, and neither beasts nor
insects would touch it. From this the
doctor argues that as animals would not
drink the stuff man should not. But
here, flies drink lager beer in q most
vicious manner, and now il the doctor
was alive some one might ask him If the
animals had degenerated or the beer be-
come better.

The Goldens.

This justly celebrated troupe gave another
one Of their splendid performances here on
last Saturday night. "Fate" was given in q
manner that, considering the smallness of the
house and stage, was really creditable, and
won for this company new laurels. Bella
Golden, as Helen Faraday, did some elegant
acting and brought the tears from many eyes.
Martin Golden, as Frank Faraday, did well,
and is really pleasing actor, besides being
a gentleman who makes friends wherever he
goes. Frank Coy, as Makepeace Thackeray
Blaize, won the appreciation and applause
of all by bis droll expressions and his yearn-
ings for 'hash." AS a comedian he is a
success, and we trust he will yet get his ia

zeal, diaboiical, theological museum" again
on its legs. G. E. Holt made very good
Uncle Derwent and Miss Kizzie Masters, as
Saliie Annie Waddles, was simply splendid.
In fact, the acting of the whole company was
very fine, and was highly appreciated by the
large audience present. As on the proceed
ing night many were turned away, as stand
ing room was not to be had, and the reserved
seats sold very readily, and early in the day
were all gone. Should the Goldens ever re-
peat their visit to Baird they will be sure to
receive hearty welcome and warm recep-
tion.-Balrd (Terds) NeacS.

The last subject treated was "Parliamen-
tary Usages," by 81. c. Davis, after which,
the hour being late, the Assertion passed
the following resolution and adjourned,
subject to the call of the Executive Com
mittee:
''Resolved, That the teachers OF Arcadia
Valley and the teachers of St. Francois
county, in convention assembled, extend
vote of thanks to Profs. Davis and Vance
and the kind citizens of Iron Mountain for
their hospitality to the teachers on this oc-
casion."
Thre were thirty-two members of the AS
ISOLATION present; but as the Secretary was
busy, the item of names was overlooked.
They therefore do not appear in this re-
port.
The Association is decided success, and
will continue to be so long as the teachers
keep before them the Importance of contin-
ual improvement.

Teachers Association.

Pursuant to announcement the Arcadi:
| Valley Teachers Association met in Join
| session with the St. Francois County Teach
ers' Association at Iron Mountain, on Satur.
day, the 9th Of May, and enjoyed one of the
most pleasant and profitable meetings ha6
| since either Association was organized. AL
were "unanimous'' ON this point. The
smiles Of the ladies seemed brighter on thi.
occasion than formerly, and doubtless con.
tributed largely to the success Of the meeting
The Association was called to order at ten
O'Clock, and forthwith entered upon the bust.
ness before it. The minutes of last meeting
were read and approved. Prof. T. B. James
then presented the subject, "Hygiene of the
Eyes in the School ROOM" treating the sub
ject at some length, illustrating the discourse
by appropriate diagrams on the blackboard,
and showing the importance OF carefully
guarding against overwork in the school
room, especially those pupils who have weak
or diseased eyes. The paper was a good one
and showed that the writer had ready
command Of his subject.
The hour being late, the Association adj
journed until after dinner, to meet at one
O'Clock P. NJ.
The afternoon session wass called to order
by the President, and Prof. C. L. Ebaugh
read paper on the subject of "Conducting
Rotations" which was regarded as one OF
the best papers read before the Association.
The idea advanced in the paper was that it
should not be SO much hear a lesson as to
develope independence of thought and self
reliance. The paper was requested for pub
LEGATION.
The next subject discussed was paper by
F. c. Miller, in which he brought out some
deep, broad ideas on the topic of ''Female
Education" The writer would give to la
dies the same chance for advancement as is
qualifications one of the conditions for such
advancement.
Prof. L. NJ. Perkins then presented the
subject of "Punishments in the School
ROOM" which elected quite a lively discus
sion, inasmuch as some ideas set forth in the
paper were altogether new. The question of
punishments is the hardest problem with
which teachers have to deal, and the paper
fully appreciates this fact. The conclusions
reached were that, so long as we continue in
our present state of imperfection, some kind
of punishment must be resorted to in order
to secure proper discipline.
The subject presented by Rev. A. W. Wright
was very interesting and instructive one,
written on the question of "Morallty in Ed
ucation." The truths set forth in the paper
are OF vital Importance to every man and
