"THAT PHYSIOLOGY" ;"

IL AL I'll NSlOLOGI
I lave been asked by some of the
teachers as to whether an minatinn
on physiology would be required il
teachers apply for certificates before
the lst of Sept, 1856. The late school
law states that every individual apply
ing for a certificate, after the Ist of
Sept, 1886, will be required 10 pass an
examination on this subject. If any
patron demand that this subject be
taught, the directors connot employ
a teacher in the district in which the
an examination on physiology. So,
fellow teachers who have studied this
subject in view of these facts, my ad-
vice is to get a text book on the subject
to say probability, as that in case you
do not, you will be unable to get GER
tificate.
A Commendable Action in an Iron
Co. School Dist: Tn q certain school
district meeting held in Iron Co.. a few
weeks ago, the people voted that they
would employ no teacher whose grade,
on scale of 10, fell below on any
branch required to be taught in the
common schools. This move is deserv-
ing of special and extended cammen-
dation. Let the teachers know that
the mere fact OF their holding certifi-
Gates is not enough to satisfy you, and
it will not be long until you can en-
ploy men and women who can teach
your children. AS long as schools SIM
ply require of IL teacher a certificate,
and give no attention to the grade or
standing in the several branches, many
poor teachers will be employed, and
the character of the school will cores
pond to the character of the certifi-
Gates. Carefully examine the grade of
your applicants certificates, notice the
their grades in each branch and if they
are not we'll up tell them you want some
one better qualified to teach your child
rem. Remember their commissioners
are compelled to issue certificates if the
applicant secures grade of SIX (6), but
the consolation is you are not COM
PEELED to employ teachers of this grade.
Let us remember another matter in
connection with this subject, that q
teacher who is thoroughly qualified in
the common branches only, and who
is successful as teacher. can pot teach
for $50 or $50 a month. He should
have $40. Such teachers VIII accom-
plish more for you In one term than
the $50 Or $50 one will in three. Which
is the cheaper?
Reports of School Dist. Clerks: The
reports to the school commissioners
should not be made until after the
enumeration is taken, which must be
done between the 31st day of May
and the 15th day of June. Some have
already sent in their reports. These
are not legal. Please see that every
item in blank is filled out.

you have little to do, indeed. You
would better check or crush those

around you, and see if you can't find
something much better that you can
do. Have you parents, brothers and

hood, soon to take and fill the places
of older ones who ale daily passing
away. How are you going to fill those
vacancies? With the firmness of true

Boys, go to work in earnest. Lay
no stress on resolutions, for they are
not worth whim-so easily broken
Delay is poor standing ground. If
YOU have thing to do, do it now. If

| Old Dresses Made to Look Like New
-.Useful Spring Wraps.

CSCAeAh wv1aRSe
There is quite new way of making an
everyday dress and the model has several
advantages. 1t does not require much ma
terial and is comfortable and jaunty. One
seen had skirt of light fawn color, made
full in the back and perfectly plain. The
waist, of the same material. was close. fitting
and little simulate zouave jacket in plaid,
with tinsel braid. The sleeves of the fawn
goods fitted snugly, but had putfs at the ell.
bows bordered by the novelty material,
which gave the arms free movement. A
sash of the latter material passed losely
about the waist and tied in full bow in
front, little to one side and below the
Waist-line, belt of the same being held by
small fancy buckles.
The long listers in wooden check goods,
with coachmen's capes, are among the
really handsome and useful spring wraps.
They are especially desirable for those an
ticipating tour of any kind, and will cover
up an old travelling dress completely.
They have also the advantage of being in
quiet taste, and are not at all expensive.
1t is best to purchase yard OF at least a
half yard of yelling at one time. The gauze
is much cheaper than when cut up into
lengths, and then fresh veil is always on
hand.
Evening gloves of light tint should al.
ways be of an excellent quality. Nothing
lighter than pearl-gray or fawn is now
worn, white gloves being entirely out of
favor. A good pair of gloves may be
cleaned several times and will look as good
as new, but cheap pair cannot be worn
more than half dozen times.
The crazy-cloths i'll wash goods are among
the most tasteful shown this spring and
come in both dark and light colors. Tor
chon and Oriental laces will both be used
to trim dresses of this material. and they
will also be worn plain. For an evening
or house dress the peasant waist will look
we'll in craZy-cloth on young figure, and
such bodice is easily made at home.

and protect the rooms from the nOontide
glare and conceal the interior of the old
fashioned home from the inspection OF
curious passers-by. A dilapidated fence, a
mere skeleton of a well-made affair, runs
flush with the sidewalk. The gate is hang
ing by one hinge, and does service by
obstructing ingress and egress.
A porch, relict of bygone ages relieves
the painful simplicity of the house front. 1t
is not in the center, as one OF the windows
is to its left side, while two appear to it's
| right. 1t consists of platform On the
level of the main floor. that is a step above
the walk from the gate to the house. On
each corner Of this platform and most dis
tant from the front of the house are two
square upright posts. They extend up and
| form the supports for the roof of the porch.
Nailed up on one of these posts is a board
| sign. 1t contains the following words:
bird Store"
Up and down either of the two posts,
| painted in black and OF free-and-easy
| style. are the letters on the above sign.
The painting does not indicate that the
| painter was an artist, but rather that it was
accomplished by a small boy. 1t is in the
nature OF first attempt 1t requires some
little study to fully grasp its meaning.
! A walk up to the door, a former white
affair, with mock side lights, and knock
thereon, brings into view the proprietress
and owner of the bird store" Mrs Ray
mond.
Into the room to the right she escorts her
visitor, the while rolling up her sleeves and
revealing two red and fat arms, for she is
at work with her birds. Seats are not
plentiful in the room, which is filled up with
bird cages of all sizes and patterns. The
room contains an old-fashioned, stiff-legged
piano and sewing machine, both Of which
are made to support bird cages. The visitor
stands while about the cages moves the
solid form of Mrs. Raymond. 81 can't get

Chicago Rambler.
Man that is born of woman is of cold
days and full of trouble
In the morning he ariseth with the alarm
clock. girdeth up his suspenders and says
in his heart: ''Lo, the sun shineth! Spring
is here, and will don my summer under
clothing"
And, verify I say unto you when the full
ness of the day is at hand, the air is exceed
ing cold, and the north wind bloweth
through his whiskers. Yea, he is chilled
even to the marrow of his bones, and he
chideth himself for fool that he did not
clothe himself in the flannels that were his
won't
He ariseth Of another morn and seeth
snow upon the ground and he saith: BE
hold it is chill, and l will have great head
and wear my winter overcoat."
And he does so.
Then cOmeth the sunshine and roa steth
him, and he lamenteth that he did not wear
his new spring coat of many colors. He
carrieth his chestnut winter coat on his arm,
and the daughters of men deride him, say
ing:
Behold, he goeth forth to sell his winter
garment, that he may get the garment
which is of the spring from the hands of the
brother of his father"
Verify he knoweth not wherewith he
should be clothed, for whatsoever he put
teth upon him he is left with equal left
ness.

languid host as he got himself up. ''Have

himself of the eccentricity of literary men

MY DEAR DoRoTHY-I hope the sun

that all the good people, all over the
world, appreciated it, for sunshine is
always in fashion. Even the dread of
freckles does not keep women out of it,
and if that fear will not. then what will?
Nothing, you may be sure. The average
American of the sweet gender Il trust that
does not look as if it were weak, because it
is mott has less fear of vice than of freckles.
She feels that she can battle with the one,
and even. by great care. make it virtue. but
freckles-the whole wide wide world con-
tains no remedy for them. Like the Demo-
cratic government they come to stay; but
then we like the one and we do not like the
other.
A bride l once heard of said the only

THE LIGHT STILL LINGERs.

A cold, gray sky-night's gathering gloom,
A saddened heart, a darkened room
The brief day swiftly dies.
But see! A tinge Of amber slight
A flush--a glow-a food of light
Bursts from the Western skies,
A moment--and the glory fades
The flush departs-the somber shades
Close down Ger all the land;
Yet, In my heart that wonderous light
Still fingers like fond goodnight,
Or press of loving hand.
