HOUSE BILL NO. 81.

Most of tho provisions Of this bill are
good, and much needed. Such rs the change
Of time OF holding the annual school meet
ing from the last Saturday in August TO the
first Saturday IN April; requiring the district
clerk to make out the annual report to the
county superintendent, and to notify him Of
the time when schools commence, the length
Of time, and name Of teacher; the eligibility
of females tn the offices of school Trustee and
county superintendent; requiring all engaged
In teaching TO attend the county institute
and take part In the exercises, under penalty
Of losing certificates; the compulsory at
tendance clauses; higher standard Of county
certificates, and n. more definite plan Of
granting them; and q Territorial board Of
examiners to issue Territorial certificates to
applicants who wish to command the best
situations ~ teachers, and avoid the varied
examinations and standards Of county super
intendents.
But We think 1t desirable TO include In the.
bill, the qualifications of school trustees, at
least that they shall be residents of the
school district In which they have control |;
also, to include In the list Of branches upon
which examinations are held for Territorial
certificates, arithmetic and geography Also,
that electors 1t school elections be ad ral-
orem Taxpayers; and that compulsory At
tendance In graded schools be 80 modified
thatpupils twelve TO fourteen years of sge,
who have had but few advantages In educa-
ton need not be classed with pupils seven
to nine years old, which could be done by
making the maximum age ten years for the
frst year, eleven years for the second, twelve
for the third, and advance to the maximum
of eighteen years by this gradual Impress
ment.
The allowances Of four dollars for each
school district to the county superintendent
will no, pay his travelling expenses and post
age, and the county superintendent should
receive tho fees for examining teachers, Or

the snow, rottcd the ice, and set the Monon-

Sharper Than a serpent's Tooth.

A week or two ago, a young man, be-
longing to an influential, honorable fam
lily, cheated a couple of business firms
in a great western city, by false repre-
sensations, out of a couple of hundred
thousand dollars. The matter was
brought before his father, an old man of
stern integrity. The young man was his

road between him and death was short,
and it would be dark and hard.
On the same week, an elderly woman
was seen to throw herselfinto the Schuyl-

rescued with difficulty. She held in her

On Brooklyn Bridge.
Murat Halstead in Cincinnati Commercial
Gazette.

Gazette.
l walked owe the bridge to BROOKLYN
to-day. The distance is something over
amile between the New York and Brook
Ign stating places.
This bridge is the greatest work of
human hands. The cathedrals that are
the wonders of Europe are like toys be-
side this monstrous and magnificent
structure, and its lines are as beautiful
as its proportions are stupendous. 1t is
very like the Cincnnati-C ovington
bridge, only very much more 80. We
have two cables; there are four here. l
think the cables Of this bridge are larger
than ours, but 80 vast is their sweep
that, as they soar above the lofty towers
and swing far over the strait that they
span they seem. to grow slender. We
have to inspect them closely to be salts
foot walk is in the center Of the bridge,
outside the foot walk are the railroads,
and outside of these the carriage drives.
So there is a roadway for foot
passengers, two lines of rails and two
wagon roads. The bridge seems to dom
mate the cities. One looks down upon
the beautiful bay and the far-spreading
labitations on its shores, as from q
mountain top. The bridge towers sur
pass the spires in apparent attitude, and
either of them is as imposing u the
Strasburg cathedral. The bridge will
be the pride of the city, the favorite
scene of its history and its romance. 1t
will revolutionize currents of travel,
change values, and the cities will be
up in the architecture of the future to
stone from i1 to 20 years, Nova Scotia
stone probably from so TO 100 years,
Ohio sandstone 100 years, Caen stone
50 to 40 years. coarse dolomite marble
40 years, fine marble go years, pure cal
carous marble from so to 100 years,
granite, according to variety, from IS to
eco years. Among the chief %destroyers
Of the stones are solvent substances
washed from the air hy rains, and the
bridge and the elevated railroads., and
the %far-shining electric lamps, the posi-
bilities of New York have been extend
ed and illuminated, and the develop
ments that are to come on the islands
and p%enninsulas upon which we look
from the bridge will exceed all that has
gone before in the experience of man
kind. Only in a few Of the new build
ings do we find the beginnings of the
amazing city that is to be realized here,
out of the consummate resources of civ.
iliZation. How the wind blows on the
bridge; it is with that air of continuity
one marks on the prairies, or the sea.

TRUTHS

The blood is the foundation of
life, it circulates through every part
of the body, and unless it is pure
and sich, good health is impossible.
If disease has entered the system
the only sure and quick way to drive
it out is to purify and enrich the
blood.
These simple facts are we'll
known, and the highest medical
authorities agree that nothing but
iron will restore the blood to its
natural condition; and also that
all the iron preparations hitherto
made blackcn the teeth, cause head.
ache, and arc otherwise injurious.
Browns IRON BlTTEas willthor-
oughly and quickly assimilatc with
the blood, purifying and strengthen
ing it, and thus drive disease from
any part of the system, and it will
not blacken the teeth, cause head
ache or constipation, and is uosi-
lively not injurious.
