The Bairds Wanted at st. ice.
Hardin College, located at Mexico,
Mo-, is everywhere ~deservedly recog-
nized as 'sThe Vassar of the Vest"
It has been built up and made what
it is since it passed under the admir-
able management of Prof. Baird and
his family, all of whom-his wife and
her two grown daughters-are ex-
p~erienced and practical educators.
Desiring to open a college at some
other point, to be non-sectarian in
character, Prof. Baird is in our city
to e what aid AMI encouragement
the citizens of St. Joseph will give
towards such an enterprise. Several
other places in Missouri are making
strenuous efforts to have Prof. Baird
locate in their midst, and if the
people of st. Joseph secure his col
Ilege it will be necessary to act quick
~ and unitedly in the matter. The
property Prof. Baird has in view is
the Worlds hotel, with the adjoining
park, and he proposes to secure it by
the sale of scholarships, at 800 each,
for a three years course of instruc-
ton, with the privilege of running
ten years. They are to be made
transferable and remain q lien upon
the property for the term of ten
years. He guarantees to furnish the
building in good style, and is willing
to put in ten years labor OF himself,
wife and two daughters to secure th.
building and grounds.
It candidly seems to the Gazette
that this enterprise should meet will
the encouragement and cooperation
of our citizens generally. Aside from
the intellectual and moral worth o
such an institution, it will be of vas
material benefit, especially to our re
tail dealers. If taken hold of b,
Prof. Baird and family, our citizen
have their past successful manage
ment of Hardin College as a guarau
tee that any institution of which the
!, have the control will be properly cor
Quoted.
Now, people of st. Joseph, here j
an opportunity to get what We war
and what we need, at little cost an
! less risk. And as this is. an entel
prise in which our business me
should be interested, we would sus
gest that a meeting Of our board
trade be called to hear Prof. Baird
plans more fully and determine upc
some plan to secure the college. E
all means let us have the college,

Mexico, Mo-, March 28.-Being a

some very promising young t~rotters,
among which is a sorrel gelding
owned by Nick McCubbin, of this
city. 1t is thought he will get low
down in the "teens" in a seasons
work. His breeding is unknown.
Also a bay gelding, owned by Cy
Clark, Mexico, sired by Missouri
Clay, said to be the "dark horse" Of
this circuit. MI. Poulter came wes'
a short time since, but is making
his mark among the lovers of goot
horses.
Joe Rood, the "irrepressible Joe,
is here with a very fast grey ge1dingg
owned by Smith 4. Davis, Fulton

Good Showing.

Mexico has a good school board.
They have a very hard place to fill
hard work, no pay and everybody
finding fault with them. We have
good teachers and our school has .
state reputation. We clip the follow
ing extract from an open letter from
the officers:
sour neighboring city, Louisiana,
has a school of high standing and
character, and in its expenditure of
funds compares favorably with other
like schools. By examining the lat
est report of the state superintendent
in his report for the years 1883 and
| 1884 we make the following compar-
ison:
| Total enrolment 95 ll&S
No. teachers employed IL
Az; salary PEI month ss2sa az
Cost per day each pupil o. os-l4
We think this comparison will show
that the funds of the district have
heretofore been judiciously expend'

How to Preserve the Eyesight.

Avoid all sudden changes be- tween light and darkness
 Never begin to read, write, or sew for several minutes after coming from darkness 70 bright light.
 Never read by twilight or moon light, or even on dark, cloudy days.
 When reading it is best to let the light falf from above obliquely over the left shoulder.
 Do not use the eyesight by light so scant that it requires an effort to discriminate.
 The moment you are instinct lively prompted to rub your eyes, that moment stop using them.
 If the eyelids are glued together on waking up, do not forcibly open them, but apply saliva with the finger. It is the speediest dilu- tant in the world; then wash your eyes and face in warm water.
Nevada County picayune., 1885-11-19
Household Hints,

Cream tartar Will cleanse Wnlte kid gloves by rubbing it upon them.
 Pure powdered borax will drive away reaches, water.bugs and ants.
 Cream sweetened with powder eC sugar will keep for a couple O. days.
 When sponge cake becomes dry, it is nice to cut in thin slices anC toast:
 The juice of tomato is said to be excellent to remove ink, wine and fruit stains.
 To clean furniture: One pint linseed oil, one pint vinegar, half pint of wine or alcohol.
 Cold tea should be saved for your vinegar barrel. It sours easi- ly, and gives color and flavor.
 Seal the juice left from canning fruits in small bottles and keep for making fruit pudding sauce.
 MOisten the hands and rub them in Indian meal, and then wash with warm water it you wish them white.
 Flannel dipped in alcohol and rubbed gently once or twice on the spot will remove grease from wall paper.
 Odors from boiling ham, cabbage, onions, etc., may be prevented by putting red pepper pods or pieces of charcoal into the pot.
 The best way of cleaning black cashmere is to place the dress or goods in strong borax water, made iukewarm; let it remain in soak all night, then take out and hang on a line to dry, and when dry press off. Do not rinse or wiring.
