SCHOOL REPoRT-The following is a
report of the school in district 40, for the
two months ending Aril 5th.
Pupils standing 90 and over in daily
Rotations are as follows:
Isaac Mossman 81
Frank Mossman 90
James McCracken 96
Joseph Maly Sc
Charlie McCracken "a
| Fred Mossman "a
| Fred Lockead "a
Emma Stiles 95
In the primary grades, for the first time
during the term, some of the pupils made
an average of 90. John Brown and
Joseph Mahoney standing 90 and 81 and
Katy Ritterott 90.
The early season interfered largely with
the attendance during the last two weeks
of school, but in spite of the absence of
nearly all of the A class, the average at
tendance of the class for the term has
been IS.
The school is extremely small as to
numbers but this fact does not prevent
an intense interest being felt by the pu-
pills and patrons.
Owing to the push of work on the
farms, no entertainment was given at
the close of school; but promise OF an
extra effort at the end of the spring term,
pacifed the eager little ones, and we take
this opportunity to solicit the aid and
encouragement OF the patrons, in our
work, both during the term and at its
close.
The school has proven a very pleasant
one, and it is with sincere regret that we
part with those few who in all probabili-
ty will never meet with us again in ca
pacity of pupil.
A vacation of but two or three weeks
will ensue.

Loves Promise.

Listen to my ardent wooing
Oh, my dove!

''Think of love-"
Different thoughts and fancies fitting
Through the winter long,
In the happy spring time bursting
Into Joyous song.
Listen to my gentle whisper,
It shall ten
OF every hope and promise that will
Please thee well;
That over past regret our present Joy
Shall reign supreme,
Life's long shadow floats behind thee
Like dream.
In thine ear the sweetest music
Henceforth will ring,
Swccter than the lark's best note will be
The song I'll sing.
In thine heart the echo
OF the strain that swells In mine,
Murmuring low and murmuring ever
dearest, l am thInel"
And for the future-listenl
A life of bliss.
When 1 of thee have taken
My last kiss,
Fear not for some day onward too
Will speed thy soul
To that new world where Love
Is still the goal.

Of the sailors have been introduced up
on modern vessels. In illustration OF
this change, General Dumont, marine
inspector for tho United States govern
ment was recently entertaining n
group Of passengers on board Lake
Superior steamship with certain
incidents from his own early ex-
perience in the merchant service. Tho
general although now nearly sixty
years OF age, is u genial gentleman Of
commanding presence, and withal q

At ono tins, when lad Of sixteen,
he was on q smiling vessel rounding
Cape Horn. The weather was intense
ly cold, gale was blowing. and every
thing on the deck wns coated with Ice.
The sailors suffered severely from
chilled fingers; their hands were so be-
numbed that they could with difficulty
haul the cordage. Our young mariner
thought that he would improve his own
condition a little by putting on q pair
Of MEXICAN gloves which he had pur-
chased at Vera Cruz. He had scarcely
done so when the captain coming for
ward, fastened contemptous glance
on his hand gear and said, sharply:
"Here, you. of with those gloves!
Do you think you can be sailor and
baby yourself like that?'
The gloves came of, and never went
on again.
On another occasion, during period
Of unusually bitter weather, when tho
deck was mass OF ice, and every line
frozen As stifY as iron. young Dumont
ventured to ask the mate. with whom
he chanced to be on good terms, II his
feet ever got cold.

Fashion in Mourning.

In nothing are the DEGREES OF fash
ion at once SO senseless and SO heart
less as in their regulation of the man.
ner and methods OF mourning for the
dead.
A sensible woman has lately rewrit-
ten the old but apparently futile pro-
test against the "sable gloom and on
forced solitude" of the conventional
period OF mourning. 1t is un-Christian
and often cruel: 1.-The really bereav-
ed," said the writer, 'should not be
left in awful loneliness. The piano is
closed, the music would be discord-
ant sacrilege; yet the departed may be
enjoying heavenly harmonies- The
blinds and draperies shut out all
sunlight, because in heaven there is no
night What is imperatively needed
cheerful society, new occupations.
amusements. taking the minds into
new channels-all this is peremptorily
denied by fashion and Mrs. Grundy.
and SO there is nothing left but TO go
over and over the narrowing details.
the useless regrets, until many are on
the brink of insanity"
1t would seem that If in any matter
of human concern the regulation Of
conduct might be loft to the individual
it is when affliction and loss come to
one. II 1t BIO true that "every heart
knows its own bitterness" it is equally
true that every heart knows its own
needs. To some, diversion might seem
a sacrilege when death has removed
one near and dear. But to the great
mass of BEAUTIFULLY constituted minds
n change of thought and scene would
be grateful and helpful. For such to
condemn themselves to "sable gloom
and enforced solitude at the dictum
of an impalpable Mrs. Grundy-for
fear of what '.they will say"-is weak
ness and wrong.
The best guide in this matter is ones
own heart and mind and an honest and
brave consideration OF what the de-
parted friend would wish. No spirit
worth mourning would desire the
friends left behind to make themselves
unnecessarily miserable on his or her
account.-New York World.
