LEGISLATIVE NOMINEES

Very few people in Fairhaven seem
to be aware of the fact that school
election will be held in this district
Saturday, September 8, for the election
of a director to succeed Samuel Curry
and also for the election of a clerk
For some reason, or perhaps it would
be more appropriate to say for some
cause which the directors seem to con-
slider a reason, no published notice has
been given. 1t might suit the plans of
few to have the matter escape
general attention but certainly ignor-
ance or indifference in such matter
cannot be expected to advance the
interests of the schools. They have
suffered too much already from such
causes. II is not economy to give
notice of such an election merely by
posting. 1t is parsimony, and of a
kind for which there is absolutely no
excuse. Suppose it would cost two or
three or even five dollars to give proper
notice by publication. There are sew
eral thousand dollars in the treasury
and the money is there for the purpose
Of paying all needful expenses for the
establishment and maintenance of
good schools. That result cannot be
brought about by pursuing a policy
the object of which seems to be to
keep the people in ignorance of such
an important matter as the election OF
school directors. No good can result
from having some old silurian who
knows no more about modern methods
of education and school management
than Siwash slide in as a trustee
The position should be filled by some
one who is not only honest and capa
BILE In business transactions but who Is
sufficiently well educated and has had
sufficient experience in school matters
TO know when the schools are well
managed and the pupils well taught.

1t is good news if it is true news, that
an oil can has been invented which will
show when lamp is full and thus pre-
vent it from doing what no lamp or any
thing else ought ever todo-slop over. A
wheel is placed in the spout of the can.
This revolves with the flow Of the oil
An air vent is fixed upon the spout.
When the lamp is full of oil the air vent
is closed, the wheel stops and the oil
ceases to flow.

A lady, apparently of great wealth,
had been for more than an hour impos-
ing upon the unceasing endeavors of a
patient saleswoman to fit with ready
made costume the daughter of the shop
per" child of about eight years. The
hope of adding one more sale to her
days list buoyed the dropping spirits of
the saleswoman and made her indefati-
gable in her efforts to please, but her
hope was in vain, for her customer final
ly said, "Well, will not decide now,
but | will return this afternoon" where
upon her child quickly remarked, why,
mamma, we won't have time to come
back here and the nine other stores
where you've promised the same thing
today. New York Recorder.

Practical Philanthropy,

To outside people who are neither
capitalists nor laborers in the accepted
meaning of these terms it would seem
that the problem so long unsolved might
become clear by studying and initiating
in greater or less degree the examples
of Aristide Boucicault and his wife, the
founders of the Bon Marche in Paris.
OF course where the demon of selfish
ness rules these benefcent exemplars
would be denounced as ridiculous en-
thusiasts, but, as results have shown, the
plan they have pursued has been an
enormous financial success. AS system
of benevolence statistics show that it
has scarcely parallel. The following
is brief outline of M. Boucicaults plan
from its inception, and a sketch Of the
manner in which its purposes have been
nobly fulfilled by Mime. Boucicault after
his death. Jacque Aristide Boucicault
was one of the people. He began life as
an employee in a small provincial town
in the dry goods business.
After going to Paris in 1853 he be-
came partner and later proprietor of the
Bon Marche, Rue du BAG, a small shop,
but which under his care became one Of
the most unique buildings of the kind
in the world. From the first his idea
was to found an establishment which
should be philanthropic and commercial.
The welfare of his employees was always
in his thoughts. AS his means increased
he improved their manner of living, d.
minished their working hours, increased
their salaries and accorded them an in
dividual interest in their sales. He also
established a system by which every
employee was assured a progressive adj
vancement according TO the time of his
or her employment and to the services
rendered.
In 1879 he opened free classes for the
study OF languages, music and fencing.
He installed library for the public and
a free art gallery for artists DESTROYS of
exhibiting their work to the customers
and visitors of the Bon Marche. In 1876
he opened provident fund which, with.
out retaining anything from the salaries
of employees, accorded small capital
to the men and a marriage portion to
the women at the expiration of ten OF
twelve years. This fund was largely in
creased at every years stock taking.
He also allowed his employees TO de.
post with him any Of their savings at q
per cent The annual returns of this
system at the time Of his death in 1875
exceeded the sum of 81, 900, 900 francs.
Marguerite Boucicault consecrated
the last years of her life to the carrying
out of her husbands plans in this great
work.
Surprising that capitalists should in
augurate, as far as possible, just and
merciful system similar in effect to the
above-there would be no use Of armed
Pinkertons or armed men of any sort.
Perhaps before the millennial era such
practice may prevail. Meantime men
will die and go to their own place, both
millionaires and workingmen, and there
will be ''no pockets in their shrouds.'

1t is fact worth bordering, that the
bank clearings for seven months Of
1892, as compiled by Bradstreet's, show
a total Of ss5,Sl2, 276, 1872, or nearly IA
per cent. more than in seven months of
1891. In other words, the volume of
business during the seven months of
1892 to the first of August was nearly
IA per cent. larger than in 1891; for
speculation has been no more active, II
indeed as active, IN 1892 than in 1891.

A Valuable Gold Piece.

In 1887 goldsmith of the name of
Brasher coined sixteen dollar gold

coins, there being but four specimens of

each. This rare piece has the well
known motto stamped upon it in this
mixed up form, "Unium E Pluribus."
