The laws of health are taught in the
schools; but not in way to be of much
practical benefit and are never illustrated
by living examples, which in many cases
might easily be done. If some scholar,
who had just contracted cold, was
brought before the school, so that all
could hear the dry, loud cough and know
its significance; see the thin white coat
ing on the tongue and later, as the cold
developed, see the profuse watery expec-
torstion and thin watery discharge from
the nose, not one of them would ever
forget what the first symptoms of a cold
were. The scholar should then be given
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy freely,
that all might see that even a severe cold
could be cured in one or two days, or at
least greatly mitigated, when properly
treated as soon as the first symptoms APP
pear. This remedy is famous for it's
cures Of coughs, colds and Group. 1t is
made especially for these diseases and is
the most prompt and most reliable medi-
cine known for the purpose. 90 cent

The town clerk of this town ack-
| nowledges the receipt of a notice from
the county treasurer required to be
given by the county board, of an i'm
perfect description of piece of land
in this town, which could not be sold
for the taxes and the tax was charged
back to the town. He was aware of
the faulty description before and will
be under obligations to any one that
will suggest way to describe it. 1t is
this way: Five acres of mill property
is described as commencing AZ rods
from the end of bridge across the
Eaugalle river. thence n 81" 800 West
10 rods and links, thence 80 rods,
thence down the river 70 rods and 2
links, thence n ii rods to place of
beginning, containing acres, more or
less. Also that certain piece of land
lying between the fence and river, in.
Guiding the race and dam for mill pur-
poses, being one acre more or less, all
situated in the n = of N w a of Sec.
8. mo hint as to how much is in one
40 or how much in the other.) An
other lot OF a acres, commencing at
one end of this mill property, &c.
Another of acre, commencing at
the other end of it, &c. Still another
lot of acres, commencing at the end
of (another) bridge across the Eaugal-
lie. following the highway % rods,
then turn, &c. Now what is wanted
is an accurate description of what is
left in that 80 acres.
This is not intended as criticism
or reflection on the county board. 1t
was proper and friendly for them to
give the town the notice referred to,
but we do not see how our officials can
get accurate descr. psions of the lands
surrounding Spring Valley and 0livet
until those villages are plated and put
on record. The citizens of those
burgs will please take notice.

veloped in flames before discovered,
and the dwelling which stood only a
few feet from it was also on fire. 1t
was no doubt fired by an incendiary.

How the. Spider Builds.

Watch common house spider spin its
web. 1t seems to take pains, before begin
ming, to select a spot where there are
chances of obtaining plumber and where it
will be secure. 1t then discharges q little
drop OF glutinous fluid, and creeps up the
WALL joining the thread from one wall to
the other. The first thread thus formed is
drawn tight and fixed at each end with
other threads. 1t is upon this outer thread
that the durability Of the whole fabric de-
ponds. The webs foundation completed,
the spider next makes number of threads
parallel to the first, and then crosses them
with other threads, the sticky substance of
which they are formed serving to bind
them, when newly made, to each other.
1t now commences to double and treble
the threads that border it's web, securing
the edges as it does SO. Lastly, it forms
kind of tunnel with webbing. This is to
serve as a retreat where it can conceal it
self from its enemies, and also from it's
prey, and is generally placed in the angle
of the walls. When the SPIDERS work is
done it often happens that the approach Of
some large animal or the passage of the
housemaid's broom will destroy in a min
ute the labor of days. In this case as soon
as the danger is passed away the spider pa
tienely begins to repair the web.
For this purpose the spider is provided
with store of the glutinous matter of
which the web is made When possible
the spider prefers the mending business,
as it is only provided with limited guam
tity of glutinous matter and when this is
exhausted it probably cannot be renewed.

The Dissatisfied Salesman.

1t is customary for the commercial trav-
elers to visit the home office of the institu-
tions they represent about the first of the
year, and renew their old contract with
their firm or make a new one. If they have
done successful years business they are
likely to call their employers attention to
the fact, and hint that an advance in sal
airy would be the proper thing. If they
are good statesmen, and their requests are
moderate, their wishes are usually grant
ed. A representative of Chicago hard
ware house got raise in salary the past
week. When he suggested the propriety
of such step to his employer the latter
remarked:
''Why, we gave you big raise a year
ago" Il know that" replied the young
man, "and want another now. l think I
am worth to you all l am asking" ''IA
you, indeed?" responded his employer,
and further remarked, "Ill tell you hon
estly what think; that is that some men
are never satisfied, and that you are one Of
that number" True" said the traveller,
''and I never intend to be. You will, sir,
pardon me for saying if you had been salts
fed with the 81 200 per year you originally
received for doing the class of work am
performing you would not now be getting
your $4,000 per year as partner in this
concern" He got his raise. One of these
days he will be partner himself.-Chi-
cago Herald.
