though measuring my strength There
was enough of me, perhaps, to make
him require time for his calculations.

it would be next to impossible to retain

Coxon of all opportunity of making
my berth more uncomfortable than it
was; to hoM my tongue, to take no no.

clear of Duckling as much as possible,
and to quit the ship, if possible, at
Valparaiso. How 1 kept these good
resolutions you shall hear.

st. Mary's Academy.

Sixteen years ago there was established
in Salt Lake, an institution of learning of
which every citizen of Salt Lake has rea-
son to be proud. Although the beginning
was small, through the patience, industry
and hard work of those connected with it,
il stands to day an ornament to the city
and credit to modern progress. Last
year an extensive addition was made to the
building, and during the present vacation
the building is being remodeled. The par
tltions are being changed so as 10 enlarge
some departments, the walls are receiving
a. fresh coat OF paint and whitewash, the
floors are being freshly oiled and many
other improvements made. The Mother
Superior was waited upon by q HERALD
reporter, to whom she proudly showed the
building, and spoke enthusiastically of the
plans and work for the coming year.
The Old study room has been changed
into dormitory, and a new study room,
larger and better lighted, provided in the
new addition. Also the kitchen and dining
room, In the basement, have been enlarged,
30 as to furnish accommodations for the
Increased numbers.
a speciality is made Of the work in the
music and art departments. The best
teachers that can be found are procured
for these branches. Musical instruments
use Of the students Eighteed pianos are
placed in separate rooms in a wing or the
building, so that pupils in practice do not
interfere with each other or disturb those
studying in the main building.
Spacious apartments are furnished in the
basement for recreation, gymnastics and
calesthentics. Back OF the building are
large and spacious grounds, well shaded,
laid out in walks and drives, with seats
provided in the shade, for the use of the
students.
A corps OF twenty competent teachers
insures each student all necessary care and
oversight. IL is the purpose of the institu-
ton to give those placed under its charge,
as nearly as possible, home.
The school is especially for girls and
young ladies, but boys between the ages of
six and eight years are received also.
A commercial course has been provided
for the coming year and special attention
