Considerable fault is being found with our
teacher in the higher school. Our private
opinion is that most of this fault finding
was premeditated, as we know that several,
who send to school, commenced it before the
teacher came here. If parents were only far
sighted enough to see that the course they
are pursuing was injuring their children,
they would stop short, and instead of being
ready TO find fault with everything she does,
would rather stand by her, and then at the
close of the term if she did not suit, let her
quietly resign.

Of the same place. women are mostly what
men make 'em. When husbands are brutes
wives will fall into submission or make home
hot for the men; aud they're unnatural in

be good to them when they're sick, and you'll
have no trouble. There's my own wife, now.

the bloom off her checks and the spring out OF
