. STAFF Of fourteen teachers and has always been
famous for turning out wide-awake and clever
scholars. Some have attributed this fact TO the
bracing effect Of the salt breezes from the East
River. which Is distincly visible from the back
windows Of the school house. but thoughtful
persons have ascribed 1t more logically to the
high standard Of excellence in discipline and
mental drill which Miss Sarah Z. Haywood, the
Principal Of the school, has always maintained.
There are so many prodigies in this school
that the teachers were put TO no small amount
Of trouble in choosing between the numerous
candidates for a place Of honor in The EVENING

were no less than half q dozen who were thought
worthy Of the honor, and it was only after
mature. deliberatlon that a compromise was
effected by the selection OF two boys and two

The following resolution was unanimously
adopted by the board, and ordered spread
on the minutes: Whereas, The Florida
Railway and Navigation railroad system,
and the Clyde line Of steamers, are enter
prises operated in the interests of our state
and section, and whereas, from the limited
infJrLati thus far received, relative to
the disagreements between the Florida
Railway and Navigation and the Savannah,

noyances arising therefrom. to US and our
citizens, and being DESTROYS of avoiding
further complications, and prefer
ring (al things being equaD to
give our undivided support, and to foster
and aid, by all means in our power, every
Institution that tends to the benefit of our
section and our state, therefore be it
Resolved, That we, the Madison board of
trade, recommend and advise all shippers to

all shipments to and from New York and all
points north via the Clyde line, until further
notice from the board
Madison is conceded to be the largest
shipping and receiving point in Middle
Florida, or between Tallahassee and Jack

can control this trade to large extent over

cit is true" said a dealer in mirrors
that none of us know exactly what manner
of men we are. The mirror does not enable
us t. see our outer selves as others see us
Only the finest mirrors approach perfection
of surface. The best are made of plate
glass, but If you happen to look into large
mirror you discover that the straight lines
and right angles of a room appear
all awry. The reflection most nearly
true to the object reflected is OBJ
tanned perhaps from a hand mirror made
of plate glass or from a metallic mirror of
moderate size. Great pains are taken to
insure true surface in plate glass, but few
mirrors long in use have a surface in a
single plane. A slight defect distorts the
image | have seen homely women look
almost handsome in mirror by reason of a
defect in the surface that remedied bad

rors to ladies who need fatterer near at

Here is mirror that illustrates what |
have said," continued the dealer, taking
down a circular glass enclosed in a stout
frame, which was provided with handle.
The listener, looking in, beheld an odd dis
tortion of his own features. One eye ap-
peared higher than the other, one cheek
bulged as if swollen with toothache, and the
whole countenance was caricatured.
Look steadily for a minute" said the
dealer, and he began to turn the mirror
slowly. AS he did so tho features reflected
engaged in a sort Of kaleidoscope dance
For no two seconds was the face the same.
While this was going on the eyes of the
gazsr felt as if they were being twisted out
their sockets, and before the mirror had
made full revolution the performance had
become very painful.
Feels odd, doesn't it 2" said the dealer
'Now, that mirror is a scientific toy Its
surface is cast purposely in several planes
One eye s reflected in one plane, the other
in different one and tle bullying cheek is
still another. The pain to the eyes was
caused by the effort to adjust the vision to
