Very few people know how to
properly care for The nails. In clean.
ing them shap knife ought never
to be employed, but between the ends
of the nails and the fiugers the space
should be filled with soap and then
removed by brushing with the so.
called nail brush. Many improperly
cut away that part of the flesh which
grows over the nail from the bottom;
but it should be simply pressed back

white part, considered by some to be
a mark of beauty. If the flesh il all
herent to the nail the operation may
be facilitated by passing the sharp
point of knife underneath the fold
of flesh and separating it from its
attachments. With this done it can
be pushed back more readily. Scis
sors should never be used to cut the
nails; that should be done only with q
sharp penknife.

Nutritious Value Of Oatmeal.

A writer in. Table Talk says: 1t is
nearly six centuries since Robert
Bruce sent into England his army of
90 900 men with no provisions ex-
cept bag of oatmeal for each war
rior; but the herculean feats which
were performed and undergone by
his hardy followers suggest that
there must be considerable nutriment
in that plain, simple food. Since
those days our Scottish friends have
advanced very materially. but while
they have discarded many features
Incompatible with the spirit OF the
nineteenth century they have wisely
SHIELD fast to that which is good,' =
and they to-day rank "oatmeaf' as a
necessary part of their regular diet,
and the hardy constitution OF the
Scotch, and their freedom from dys-
peptic ills, should encourage much
wider and more frequent use OF oat-
meal. The best oatmeal of to day,
thanks to American ingenuity, is not
only nutritious. but when properly
made is very palatable. Children
learn to like it very quickly when it
is presented in this palatable form
and if they become accustomed to
begin each day with dish of the
best oatmeal they will be laying the
foundation for good digestive or
ganization.
AS there are many who are incred
ulous about the possibility of oatmea
being palatable. subjoin the follow
inc hint Of Mrs. Rorer upon the sub
ject, which appears in an earlier ISSUE
of Table Talk:
"Put four tablespoonful of fines
quality Irish oatmeal, with one quar-
of cold water. into double boiler
add teaspoonful of salt and stir TO

brisk fire and boil it without stirring
for two hours, or until the meal ha

The Swift Specific Co., Atlanta, Ga
Geutlemen:-This past summer my
wife was away on two months visit.
On her return home she had a wretch
ed cold, which, growing worse, caused
me to call in a physician. He attend
ed her several weeks without benefit
ing her. She, knowing the splendid
effect S. S. S. had on me, determined
to test it in her case. At that time
she had copious and disagreeable dis
charges from the left nostril. Before
the first bottle of S. S. S. was used up
she was much better, and a few addi-
tional bottles set her all right.
It is remarkable that S. S. S. is
good for colds and sore throats. A
few months ago, I was troubled occa-
sionally with my throat from preach
ing. I carried bottle of Swift's
Specific with me on the circuit.
Whenever my throat became irritated
and annoyed me I would take a dose
of S. S. S. just before retiring, and on
awakening I would be well.

In Jacksonville, last Monday, there
were twenty-five cases of fever, and
four deaths in all had occurred.
Charleston and Savannah are both

THE TRAINING OF OUR TEACHERS,

There are about twenty-five hum
dred white teachers in the free public
schools Of this State. The negro
teachers are about thirteen hundred.
There are 1--WE Or six normal schools,
or normal departments, in which FIVE
or six hundred negro teachers are well
taught and trained for services in the
school room. Some of these negro
normal schools have been in operation
swenty years Most of these institu-
tions derive their support from out
side sources, only the one at. Clafin,
perhaps, being assisted by the State.
At Cladin there is g normal college
open to negroes of both sexes.
The Winthrop Training School,
Columbia, under the control OF the
city school board, graduated, last May,
after q one years course, eight young
ladies. The last Legislature appro-
priated to this school ffty-one hun
dred dollars to defray the expenses
Of one young lady teacher from each
county. The State University will
open this fall q normal college for
young men. The State makes no
other provision for professional train
ing Of white teachers, though the con-
stituion says there shall be normal
college which shall be open to all per-
sons who may wish to become teachers.
For several years State normal in
stitutes were held. These have been
discontinued. Now the law allows
each county to appropriate two hun
dred dollars q year for the support Of
county normal institutes. We have
no means of knowing how much of
the $500, which may be spent, is ap>
propriated in this way each gear.
Questions Of economy are now in or
der. We are prompted to inquire if
some more economical and at the
same time wider reaching plan OF
training our white teachers can not
be found.
The $500 given the Winthrop
Training School, added to such sum
as may be confidently expected from
the Peabody Fund, would support a
straighsout normal college, in which
young teachers could be prepared.
AS to the training of the teachers now
st work the law should require that
an institute be held in every county
every year, and that every teacher
must attend. Why not elect State
Superintendent of Education who can,
or Will, conduct such institutes? Why
not elect county school commits
sioners who can, or Will, assist in these
inshsuses2 Why pay State and coun-
ty superintendent, and then pay 9th
er men to do the work these superin-
tendeots ought to do?
