for Heavy People.

An eminent physician gives the fol-
lowing directions to teachers and prin-
cipals Of schools for advancing the
LeslTh of the pupils:
The proportion ofwindow space should
equal thirty to fifty per cent. of the
floor space. Sunlight should not be per-
niiIted TO fall directly on the book or
aEer, for il will irritste The eye.
The school-rOOm should be OblOng
and not wider tnan q space twice the
height of the window. Such room
can be properly lighted from one side,
which should be the LEFT. Wider rooms
should have windows on both sides.
Instruct pupils to sit erect and hold
the book or paper at least twelve inches
from the eyes.
See that myOpic pupils are provided
with spectacles which will enable them
TO read at the natural distance Oftwelye
inches.
Give the pupils ten minutes outdoor
exercise three times u day not counting

Special TO the Register.
WEST ALEXANDER, March 8.-P. d. Noble,
late of your city, who purchased the prop
erty Of Samuel Mop, just across the line
from here, took possession this week and
will shortly engage in the poultry busi-
ness.
Your city was we'll represented here this
week. We noticed r. II. List, DR.. ]. B.
Reed, r. 7. Ford, Archy T. Hupp, g.. d.
Gibson and others whom we were not &C
quainted with.
The real estate business Is booming here.
Several old farmers want to come to town
town to live at ease, but they are not the
kind to build up town. They do not in
vest any money if they can help. What we
want is live energetic business men.
We learn our young friend James
Chambers intends building business
block on his property formerly the Nc
Keehan property and will remove eatlrely
the present old rookery. II he does, IL
will be grand improvement OF the West
End.
died yesterday OF general deoillty In the
7Sd year OF his age. He will be inferred
here Monday next.
Yesterday the funeral of DR.. w. NJ.
Gil6llan took place. Revs. Lester, Boyle
and Coleman officiating. Owing TO wreck
on the Baltimore & Ohio railroad, many
from your city, Washington and other
points were prevented from being in at.
tendance. The funeral cortege was large
one.
Business was brisk here this week gener-
ally. Butter commands 25o; eggs l5c; po'
tatoes 25@40c, and wheat about 800 per
bushel. There is no market for wool; we
only know of two clips in this vicinity I'm.
sold,iviz: Q. 0'Connor and Jos. Hupps.
Quite number of our young men who
have been idle for some time are now In
the employ of the Baltimore & Ohio Rail
road Company taking out rotten ties,
which should have been replaced long ago,
end thus prevented 80 many accidents.
The road from here to Wheeling is very
much out of order, being about as rough to
ride over as riding over country road IN
lumber wagon.

success as the Clarksburg people are.
Buckhaunon Is to have another news

Miss May Grove and Ida Loyett, both OF
them bright and chock-full Of energy; so
something lively IL expected. The name

gus rds, OF q sufficient number, to almost
enable them to shake hands from post to

the post to pretty high figures and was
perhaps liable to produce confusion,
through forgetfulness, on the part OF the
soldier OF the number Of his post Be this
as il may. Sometime after the turn OF the
night heard the cry of Corporal OF the
guard post here SURF" The cry was taken
up and mimicked by every man, In order
OF their posts, until It had made the CIR
cult of the camp, without receiving any
atte ntion from the corporal, as no num-
Der had been called. A few minutes after
the cry was repeated with like results.
Then after time came the cry in the
loudest tone, to which the soldier could
rsise his voice. Corporal of the guards
post, here SURF, and If you don't come this
time, divil the more times will call you

Permit me TO offer an incident OF the
three months service of the First Virginia,
which perhaps you can use as an adden-
dunn to the account you have published of
that regiment. The incident is one that
furnished no little amusement for the
boys at the time, but has served Its turn In
filling up the "reminiscences of the time
when gathered around our camp fires We
had other things to think Of than anec.
dotes or stories. This occurred the second
night after our arrival at Grafton from
Beverly. twill be remembered by those
who have read the account Of the regiment

we had quasi meeting. After this was

The holiday season was so joyous that
the OverflOwing good feeling reached to
all classes and the wish is often ex-
pressed that the gladstone period were
more often and longer. With wish to
discover some of the means Of scattering
sunshine and joy, we naturally dropped
into a bright, cheerful place where we
were led to think that in some sense
joyousness might be made to last all the
year. 1t had been commonly reported in
the city that G. S. Wilson was the most
successful photographer ever in Cheboy-
gan. We thought we would investigate,
and we must confess that among the
good things Of which the community has
right to be proud is the
ART GALLERY,
presided over by G. S. Wilson, as true a
gentleman as can be found, as attentive
to business as Is possible, and so thor
Oughly skilled in his profession that he
is really
AN ARTIST.
He has passion for enlarged success in
his business and this has so stimulated
his talent in his work that he has ac-
quired fame and success. He Is
OF CHEBoYGAN.
That is he is here to remain for life, be
ing interested financially, and having
such custom established that it would
be foolish for him to think of going else
where.
FIRST CLASS WORK
is done at the Wilson gallery, as good as
can be done in larger cities, and to know
this is quite satisfaction to any one
living here.

Many of these are ordered. They are tin
types and are so cheap and durable and
are executed so perfectly that many pre-
fer them.

are furnished for those who wish, of any
quality and size. much cheaper than
they can be secured elsewhere.
PORTRAITS.
Those wishing portraits in ink, water
color or oil can secure the work done
through Mr.. Wilson at lower rates than
can be given by travelling agents who's .
time and labor are to be paid for. Mr..
Wilson deals only with established ar
lists.

A picture of W. s. Humphreys residence
taken by Wilson, who has taken many
residences in our place, shows the true
work done. Mr.. Wilson will keep team
and wagon for this purpose when spring
opens.
ENLARGING
Pictures are enlarged In a most artis-
tic manner. Mr.. W. has ordered new and
elegant scenery, has all needful appli-
ances, first-class help, and will do cheap.

should preach his funeral sermon. He was only
sick two weeks, during which time he fully expect

'God's Will be done, not mine.n Then he called
his father mother, sisters and brothers around
him and directed them IS to the arrangement o
his affairs as calmly and coilectedly as only

object of local pride as an index of the

Missouri comes under this head. Its
numerous departments, crowded with
the varied products of human skill and
ingenuity; its tasteful and orderly ar

system which keeps each department
complete; and the eight or nine assist
ants that are constantly kept busy wait.

the wonderfully low price at which its
