 Boys sf Frogs Corners.
 But the climax came one morning when the teacher found himself alone in the citadel of learning and all the scholars out on strike. They had assembled on the "greeh" in front of the school house, and uttered derisive cheers as he trantically rang the bell for school to "come in." Then he tried persuasion, afterwards threats said he would send for the "rrustees" but none of these means availlng, he wisely concluded to await events. Finally, after consultation, deputa- tion of boys advanced somewhat gradually to the school house door, where they were confronted by the amazed and irate master, who de- manded to know the cause of this mutinous and threatening demonstra- ton.
 A big boy who headed the delega' tion spoke up and said:
 "We've struck, and that's all there is about it. We have got grievances and we've resolved that this 'ere school shall tie up until they re right ed"
 Then he presented the following list ot reforms demanded, which he said must be acccded to or the strike would be indefinitely continued:
 I. A reduction of the hours of study.
 ?. An increase in the periods of recess.
 5. Noon to begin at II o'clock and extend to I:3o or 2, according to the condition of the weather.
 4 School shall let out any after noon when there Is base ball match or circus within fifteen miles.
 5. Any scholar who wants Gre ward of merit" to carry home to his parents can have it at wholesale cost price.
 6. Ferules to made out of soft wood.
 ,. The old-time custom of punish- ing the boys by compelling them to sit with the girls shall be immediately restored.
 8. A boy who holds up his right hand and says, "Please, sir, may go out2" shall be allowed to go whetker it be necessary or not.
 9. The number of boys allowed to go and fetch pail of water shall be increased from two to four, with pro per allowance for time consumed Tn going and coming.
 10. No boy shall be punished for offensive words spoken in debate with another boy.
 II. While believing in arbitration on general principles, we insist that two boys who nave grudge to settle shall be allowed to fight 1t out be- tween themselves. No teacher need apply whip on account of it.
 Ia. Any boy who tells on another shall be boycotted.
 I3. No boy shall be kept after scnool except at his own request, as when another boy is lying in wait to lick him.-Texas Siftiugs.

A Mammoth Moose Killed.

For several years it has been known
TO the sportsmen of the vicinity that a
monster moose has been roaming ,.bout
the Rangeley Lake region. 1t has been
the ambition of all the hunters to shoot
this monarch of tha forest, which has
been distinguished OF late years by the
name of Jumbo. Several hunters have
succeeded in getting sight of the moose,
and he has many times been fired at.
Some of the backwoodsmen asserted thai
the old fellow mnst carry pounds of lead
in his body, but that lie had charmed
life and could not be killed. A gentle
man who has Just returned from the
Rangeley region, told representative Of
the Press that the old moose had at last
met his end. He was shot by Elmer
Thomas, noted guide, and captain Of a
steamer on Kennebago Lake. 'fhc great
moose stands 1877 hands high, and
weighs from 800 to Loo. pounds. Hi
antlers arc said o be immense, and Mr.
Thomas has been offered $7j for them
and the head. The moose must have
been many years cd, and is probably the
largest ever shot in Maine. Portland

For a long time we steadily refused to pub
lisb testimonials believing that, in the opinion
of the public generelly, the great majority
wers manufactured to order by unprinclpled
PARTIES as a means of disposing Of their worth
less preparations.
Tat this view of the case is to a certain
extent true, there can be no doubt
At last, several years ago, we came to the
conclusion that every intelligent person can
readily discriminate between spurious ana
bona iide testimonials, and determined to use
as advertisements few of the many hundreds
of unsolicited certificates in our possession.
In doing this, we published them as nearly
as possible in the exact language used by our
correspondents, only changing the phrase
ology, in some cases, SO as to compress them
into smaller space than they would other
wise occupy, but without in the least exaS-
gerating or destroying the meaning OF the
writers.
Wear glad to say that our final conclusion
was correct one,-that letter recommend
ing an article having true merit finds favor
with the people.
The original of every testimonial published
by us is on file in our Office, an inspection Of
which will prove to the most skeptical that
our assertion made above, that only the facts
are given as they appear therein, is true.
But as it would be very inconvenient, if not
impossible, for all our friends to call on us for
that purpose, we invite those who doubt Gf
there be such to correspond with any of the
parties whose names are signed TO our testi
monials, and ask them if we have made any
mjstatements, 50 far as their knowledge ex-
tends, in this article. In other words, if we
have not published their letters us nearly YER
batism as possible.

classes. The long inaction has caused alb
normal economies. People have applied
all their energies to debt-paying, and have
limited themselves to the plsinest necessi-
ties in so doing. Where debts have not
been extinguished through payment, they
have been compounded and extinguished
through process of bankruptcy, that while
it has added to the prevailing dullness has
paved the way to a far greater individual
solvency, and people are now ready to begin
agsin upon the new level.
We do not draw all the dismal conclusions
from the increase in our imports that would
flow from viewing the fact from a single
standpoint. 1t is at least an indication that
we are buying more luxuries, and in which
conclusion we are confirmed from the slow
but general increase in domestic activity
and together they indicate that people have
more surplus to expend, and they all indi-
cate that the tendency has passed the COM
mercial dead point and is tending upward.
Neither do we draw dismal conclusions
from the recent labor unrest. That it has
succeeded largely in raising the wages of the
uEskilled, and consequently unduly de-
pressed classes without the skilled and pro.
tected classes being reduced, is to our mind
further evidence of an increased activity. 1t
may broadly be taken as a natural reaction
from the abnormal pressure of 1S84-5 that
bore most heavily on those classes. 1t is
VIGOROUSLY impossible that any general in
crease of wages could follow without an
increase in the power to pay them, and the
two are complementary conditions to a real
and decided improvement in our general
business activities, that without the element
of chance will still be slowly upward, and
with it, as from an increased demand from
Europe for the enormous SURPRISES of agri.
cultural crops now distinctly foreshadowed,
would expand into 'boom." The dead
wood is largely cleared away, and we are
now ready for business,
