should be made to bring in something,
be it little or much, in the way of
hard coin or crisp paper that will
serve to make a balance in the bank.
Possibly it is because such advice fell
into fruitful soil, but the chances are
more probably because the natural
tendency of the business has long
been in this direction, that SO little of
all the contents of the log as it floats
down the stream, fails to reach a
market and transform itself into cash.
Even the saw-dust sells at some mill
points. and the edgings and refuse are
made to serve profitable purpose.
The shcrt lumber and ends which
were once piled up in the water to
make docks, now find a market, when
the mill man is enterprising enough
to seek it out. Not all mill men or
dealers may know that lumber has
been sola Oil Lake Michigan this
season only eighteen inches long, and
from that up, in lengths increasing by
six inches, but it is neverless true, and
true also that good prices were obtain
ed for it. One mill owner sold large
quantity under ten feet long-stock
which was formerly considered not
worth shipping. For lengths Of eigh-
teen inches and up to forty-two
inches, $3.50 was obtained for the
culls, and So for the common and
better, delivered at Chicago. For
four and five feet the price was $4.25 for
culls, and $3.50 for good stock, while
for lengths over five feet $3.50 was
realized, the stock running in quality
equal to about A select. The average
on about ,500,000 feet of such lum-
Der sold, reached $11,70, which it
must be admitted is better than using
the stuff to make new docks. The
lumber was bought and used for
purposes, and doubt

Haven't Shut I'D Yet,

Just before the election, two years
ago several protectionist manufacturers
in this part of the country said that il
Mr.. Cleveland was elected President
they should Immediately order the
closing up of their factories. If we
remember rightly there were one or
two threats of similar character made
a month or six weeks ago, and to take
effect if certain Democratic candidates
in this State were elected to Congress.
Of course, they have not been carried
out, and no one of experience ever
supposed they would be. We should
imagine that by this time the work
ingmen of this country would be able
to estimate these protectionist asser-
tons of forthcoming evil at their true
value.-Boston Herald.

The only way the farmer can get
rid of taxes is to pay them. He can
prey upon nobody, and therefore is
preyed upon by everybody. The
farmer plows his field with protected
pillow, sowed his wheat with a pro-
tected drill, harvests and threshes it
with protected reaper and threshers,
hauls it to the railroad in a protected
wagon, loads it into a protected car,
and sends it over protected rails to an
unprotected market. When he comes
to count his returns he finds that it
has cost him two bushels of wheat to
get one to market. He works his own
land on shares, keeping one third for
himself, and giving two thirds to sup
port the patriotic policy of protection
to home industries.-G. L. Yaple.

Paper by the ream, lead pencils by

to urge upon lumber-makers the
necessity Of economy in all their
works. And in particular has it again

vigor and eloquence that is INSOFAR

they should study and plan-even If it
should be necessary for them to lie

The demand for such odd stock will
unquestionablo become a feature of
the trade, and lumber-makers will be
doing themselves good service to cul-

decided to give fal G alarms, and drill
pupils in rapid exits from the build
ing. For various reasons, however.
it was not considered wise to make
use of the fire escapes. They are
reached by windows some distance
from the floor, the upper flights of
stairs are only 16 or Is inches wide
and in the winter they are continual
ly covered with snow and ice. The
alarms, to be of any value, must, of
course. be a surprise to both teachers
and pupils. The principal was, ac'
cordingly, instructed to give the sig
mails whenever the spirit moved him,
Some excitement would naturally at
tend such an alarm, and it seemed al
most certain that accidents, more or
less serious, would result from an at
tempt to use the escapes. Moreover,
it is hardly possible that they will
ever be needed. With two excep-
tions, every stoye pipe enters the
chimney in the room in which the
stoye stands, so that fire must orig
mate, if at all, in one Of the school
rooms, where it would be Immediate
ly discovered, in the Superintendent
Office, or in the janitor's room. As
the two rooms last mentioned, are on
the opposite side of the building from
the stairways, it is not at all probable,
to say the least, that a fire will ever
make such Roadway before being dis
covered as to leave too little time to
clear the building by the usual exits,
which we have found by actual trial,
takes only three minutes.
Upon the primary teachers de-
ponds the future of the republic. 1t
is time that the people of this coun-
try realize the fact. Little children
in school houses all over the land, are
in the hands of the ignorant and in
experienced, the unapt and the weak,
the careless and the conceited. If
this great army Of incompetent needs
must be provided for, let them super
intend the railroads or oversee the
iron founderies, make them the heads
of large commercial or mercantile
enterprises, elect them presidents of
colleges or rulers of the people, place
hem in command of armies or nayies,
encourage them to doctor the sick, to
plead at the bar, to mount the rostrum,
even to enter the pulpit, but leave
hem no longer where they are hold
ng that position the most potential
or good or evil, of any public one
he world affords. There is no spot
N earth so "big with fate" as that
within the four walls of the primary
chool room. Only women and men
f educated brains, skillful hands,
nd large and loving hearts, should
are aspire to reign in that kingdom.

teachers and parents will be benefited
by its perusal.
About forty copies of The Weeks
Current, "a clean and careful sum-
mary of the important and interest
ing topics of the week." are taken by
the pupils of room 5. The object is
to create an interest in current events,
and supplement the work in geogra-
ply and reading. Didn't some one
mention the oleom 'rgarine law du-
ring the late campaign? The last

ings. Parents Of those children who
take the paper will do well to ask
them few questions in regard to it.
Don't forget to ask them how to pro-
nounce the name. They would pro-
badly rather have the name on their
tongues than the oleomargarine.
The lieutenant often declared that
the pastor was quite unable to make
a lasting impression on men, because
he spoiled them b. his kindness.
Glulphis' own principles in regard to
education were very strict, and were
founded on an accurate knowledge of
the world. He maintained that love
was only useful in the education of
men when in conjunction with fear
for they must learn to root out thorns
and thistles, which they never would
do of their own accord, but only un-
der compulsion, and in consequence
of training.
He knew his children better in
eight days than their parents did in
eight years, and employed this knowl-
edge to render deception difficult, and
to keep their hearts open before his
eyes. He cared for their heads as he
did for their hearts, demanding that
whatever entered them should be plain
and clear as the silent moon in the
sky. To insure this he taught them
to see and hear with accuracy, and
cultivated their powers of attention.
-Pestalozzi.
One of the chief aims of education is
stated in the closing sentence of the
above quotation. We sometimes hear
a teacher say: 81 told him three or
four times in succession where his les
son was, and then he didn't know
Why, of course not. A better plan
for destroying the power of attention
could not be devised. If every child
knows that the lesson will be assign
ed but once, and that some punish
ment, light it may be, but sure as fate
will be visited upon those who have
ears but hear not, teachers would soon
have no occasion to complain Of mat
tention.
