who wishes can be preparing pupils for the

In closing cannot do better than CODY an
extract from the address of the State Board of
Directors. They say:
May we not hope that every school in Kan
sas will attempt some line of the work? While
1t will be hardly possible to display it all, the
teachers may rest assured that all of it will
have proper consideration in the selection of
material for the exhibit
We confidently appeal to the SPLENDID body
of Kansas teachers for their hearty and enthu-
siastio cooperation. We believe that the eff
forts along the proposed lines will give to the
schools an impetus whose benefits will be far
reaching and lasting, and that in multitude
OF ways the result will repay for the time and
labor bestowed. Such an opportunity has new
er before been presented us tor showing what
our pupils and our teachers are doing KAN

position of her meteral interests. Shall her
educational interests be found wanting?"
hope and believe that SO far as the teachers
and pupils of Barber county are concerned the
above appeal will not be in vain.
Very Truly Yours,

Voters should not forget this fall
that they are to vote on the question of
constitutional convention to revise,
amend or change the constitution. We
think such convention should be
called. In view of the fact that almost
every question, however trivial, is now
made partiZan issue, and many ques-
tons properly before the people do not
receive unbiased consideration, we
think this convention is imperatlvely
demanded. The question of resubmis-
sion deserves candid and unpartiZan
consideration; the question of univer-
sal suffrage the same. Many improve
ments are to be made in our school
laws; the question of improving our
election laws providing universal reg
istration law; abolishing free passes in
the interest of railroads as well as the
people. These and many others de-
mand consideration, unbiased and un-
partizan, which they do not get during
the excitement of a campaign. To this
convention these minor state questions
should be referred.

We cannot but congratulate our peo-
pie on the certain election of Mr.. Har-
ry Lands. Mr.. Landis' record in the
past shows him to possess superior ex-
ecutive and business ability. HIS cam
paign has been strictly impersonal. He
has confined himself to &. clear cut dis
cussion of the issues involved. In that
discussion he has evinced the clear log
ical perception of a successful business
man and one Of prominently practical
application. Despite the slurs and
falsehoods of political opponents; his
private character is above reproach.
And once IN the state senate he will
be found fearless in debate, aggressive
against wrong, loyal to the principles
for which he is elected, logical and
learned in mis- work on the floor or on
committees, and ever earnest and Wig
liant in guarding the welfare of his
constituents and the glorious state of
Kansas. Let Barber county stand by
her home talent.

Brief Rules for Cases Of Emergency.
 If the child is suddenly attacked with vomiting, purging and prostration, send for a doctor at once. In the meantime put the child for few minutes in hot bath, then carefully wipe it dry with warm towel, and wrap it in warm blankets. If its hands and feet are cold, bottles filled with hot water and wrapped in flannel should be laid against them.
 A mush poulticc, or one made of flax seed meal, 10 which one-quarter part of mustard fiour has been added, or fan nels wrung out of hot vinegar and water should be placed over the belly
 Five drops of brandy in a tcaspoonful of water may bc given every ten or if teen minutes; but # ti" vomiting peT- sists give ,h,s irtI.y ia equal parts of milk and limewatrr.
 If the diarrhua has just begun, or if it is caused by improper food a teaspoon ful of castor cil or of the spicod sirup of rhubar5 should be given.
 If the child has been fed partly on the breast and partly on other food, the mothers milk alone must now be used. If the child has been woaGed it should have pure milk, with lincwater, or weak beef tea, or chicken water.
 The child should bo allowed to drink cold water freely.
 The soiled diapers or the discharges should be at once removed from the room, but saved for the physician to ex- anime at his visit.-Manley Tempest, M. D., in New York Commercial Ad- vertiser.

He Wu Attempt Co Sail Acros, ths
 Country In Three Days.
 Robert J. Woodward, farmer of Ventura county, is preparing to sail from San Diego to New York in bal loon. He had expected to get away be- fore this, but had trouble with the gas company about the gas to in his air ship, and he may be detained several days.
 Mr. Woodward is an enthusiast on the subject of aerial navigation, and for ten years hgs given the question the most exhaustive study. In the theory of the navigation of the atmosphere he is per haps as well posted as any man living, but in practice he is a novice, never hay ing made an ascension.
 On account of the mountains being lower here than in the north, and also of there being nearly always westerly breeze in this part of the country, Mr Woodward decided to honor San Diego with his presence, and make it his point of departure, with what degree of sue cess, however, remains tO be seen.
 He arrived in this city about two weeks ago, and while awaiting the ar rival of his balloon has busted himself studying the air currents and preparing a peculiar apparatus, which he proposes to attach to his inflated globe.
 He proposes by adding two huge white wings to tho balloon to sail whither he will, ascending and descending at pleas. ure. The wings are about by 6 feet. and are spread upon bamboo pole about twelve feet long, having two branches from the main pole. ono on either side, and four crOsspicces. The wings were of strong though light weight canvas, sewed to each piece of the frame
 By working the wins as one would a pair of oars in rowing, the inventor claims to be able to control his move ments. At any rate, he has such conf- denco in his ability 10 do so that he has not only spent much money on the in- vcn,ion, but proposes to risk his life on it.
 The balloon is 35 by % feet, is capa- ble of lifting iC0 pounds and cost $GOO 1t requires LOCO feet of gas and about fifteen hours is the time necessary to in- fate it. Mr. Woodward caused to be erected a canvas screen about forty feet in hei"ht on a yac1.t lot. where h9 made

an attempt to An it. Being afraid of getting water into the balloon after let ting in 200 feet, he decided not to take any risk, but obtain the gas from the gas works. Accordingly the valve was opened and the gas released.
 Although having no idea of the height he will have to reach, Mr. Woodward expects to obtain an altitude of 10000 feet easily.
 If successful is striking the current he expects to, ne says it is rot impossi- ble tG reach the Atlantic coasl in thirty six hours. He, however, does not ex- pect to travel so quickly, and will take sufficient provisions for three days trip, which, he said, in case of necessi- ty, would last him six days.-San Fran cisco Examiner.

A Major Who Would Train Sea Gun.


 Major Allatt, who is himself a prac- tical pigeon flyer, states that the Italians employ pigeons very considerably in the Mediterranean in connection with their ships of war. The French also use them regularly and systematically in the Mediterranean during their naval ma neuvers. This officer, however, is of the opinion that if we are going to use birds to fly over water for naval purposes, ducks would be better than pigeons, be- cause when duck gets tired he drops and sits on the water until he is rested and then goes on again. Ducks, more over, can fly by night, while pigeons cannot. Major Allott thinks that sea gulls might be trained also for message bearing purpOses.-LOndon News.

She finally consented, and Mr, Durant kept his word, sustaining her iu everything as long as he lived. When hj, death oc. cured, in 1889, she broke down com, pletely, and was soon obliged to resign because of ill health.
 Miss Howard is 8 striking looking wo, nun now past middle age. She is not tall, but digniicl in bearing, with a strong fine flco and snowy hair arranged in putfs on either side of her head. Her eyes are blue and full of expression, while her voice iS peculiarly sweet. A native of New Hampshire, she was first educated in the library of her father, William Hawkins Howard, aiterwdrd at New Ipswich academy, and the Lowell high school. She was graduated from Mount lTolyoke in 1853. Beside this she he'd had private instructors in various branches.
 For several years Miss Howard taught al Mount HolyoBe then at the Western Female seminary, at Oxford, O., finally |, coming principal of the ladies depart II ,nt of Knox college, situated at Gales burg, Ills Then she had boarding and day school of her own at Bridgeton. \ l., taking chargcSf one that had been e s.ablished some ten years. From there sle went to Wellesley in 1875, when the college opened.
 About 800 students were admitted but it was found that only forty were well prepared. Most of the others had to be put into preparatory work. or in some wJy their aitainmeuts had to be "eyened up," for if fitted in one branch, they would be deficient in others, But the p zee had been named college, and it wss not a part Of is plan to have a pre- p,ratory department. All i1 authority s. " that and worked SD hard and well tiat in three years the preparatory de- partmeut was abolished.

 She did remain, but at the expense of hnr health. She has been practically an invalid ever since, and lives quietly at hr home in Methuen, Mass, weak in body, but with her old enthusi- asm and love for the college undi- minished
 Meantime tbere had come to WelIes. Icy two heads of departments who have since played an important part in the college history-Miss Shafer, to the chair of mathematics in 1876, and Miss Freeman, to the chair of history iu 1879.
 The latter was quiet, slight young woman of twenty-five or thcreabout, but retiring as she was, Mir. Durant had seen evidences of ability in her and be-
