BETTER SALARIES FOR TEACHERS.

Under this caption the Educational
Journal of recent date. says as follows:
1T is a vital question affecting both the
teacher and the school. II is from the
fullness OF the teachers culture that the
best teaching comes, therefore we want
broader culture But meagre salaries and
constant labor puts a Limitation upon our
efforts toward self-imprOvement. The
true teacher is always a student aiming
toward an ideal goal, and in time will
surmount the difficulties that lie i'm her
way, although accomplished at sacri-
fee never realized beyond the active par
ticirants. This is wrong, and calls for
redress. She should not have ito live
laborious days and scorn delights" but
should receive a compensation that will
enable her 10 live as BELTS a member OF
a liberal profession and 10 pursue the
means Of culture. without which she will
ietrograde. That her chosen profession
may be nobly served, she needs occasional
relief from the drill and routine work OF
the schoolroom TO be devoted TO study
and travel. She must keep in touch with
the educational evolutions OF yhs age. at
least so far as 10 avail herself OF it's best
tendencies. and the great motor for
achieving this is better salaries"
This is full OF good sense. and we COM
mend the suggestions contained I'm the
above extract TO our School Board. as
they are Of special interest to US in Rich
mond. where our teachers are VIGOROUSLY
badly paid. Before the close OF the last
session the teachers petitioned the Board
for an Increase Of salaries, which petit
ton received the Endorsement of that
body, but the sum placed at the disposal
OF the Board by the Council appropria-
ton for 1892 was so small that more
money could not be Paid out in that direc-
ton. The present Council should take
this matter under their careful consldera-
ton, for Richmond now pays probably
poorer salaries to her teachers than any
city of her size in the country.

4 Marine Paradox.

Many of YOU have stood on the beach
at the seaside. and watched the seas
rolling in heavy breakers after
storm, curling and crashing into
volumes of foam and broken water,
with such force as to send them sweep
inc up almost to your feet. 1t is
through such waves that men who
follow the sea must at times pass Ill
reaching the shore; but not through
one or two on n smooth. Notwithstanding
beach, but through thirty or forty,
perhaps, coving mile of treacherous
shoals. and at places surging between
jagged reefs and huge boulders.
With intense interest we read of
dreadful shipwrecks almost every
week. The survivors tell how the big
ship labored and struggled through
monster billows and shrieking wind.
under black flying clouds and amid
Jagged streaks of lightning, until, rnaSt
less and helpless, she lay exhaust ID in
the trough of the sea. and passiveiy re-
ceiyed the crashing deluge of merci
less waves until she sank. They tell
how they. poor puny human beings,
ciung To helm and pumps till the great
came evident that she could carry
them no longer; then how they hastily
threw a cask of water and a few pro-
visions into some remaining boat. and
at a favorable moment launched upon
the angry waters in Il craft so frail that
it seemed as if all on board were
doomed to instant destruction.
Here always comes the strangest
part of their narrative. Read all such
accounts carefully. and you will find
that in nearly every case where such a
little boat is safely launched from an
abandoned ship, it floats and drifts for
davs and even weeks on the open
ocean, living through the dreadful
tempest which wrecked the big ship,
sailing buoyantly through calmer seas,
and finally bringing the survivors
within sight of other ships or lands.

selves of leap-year privileges ought to

he has at least one genuine case.
\ wealthy Boston woman, moving
in the Hubs best society and living on
Commonwealth avenue, was married
recently to a well-known New York
man.
A few days before the ceremony she
went to the registrars Office and asked
for marriage license. She said she
wanted it for friend of hers who was
sick and who had asked her to do the
errand for him.
The license was given to her, blank,
of course, and she was shown how to
fill it out. Under the registrars eye
and direction she wrote the names
of the groom and his father, his oc-
cupation, etc, then the name of the
bride-elect, with the various necessary
bits of information about her
Then the registrar asked her to sign
her own name. as representing the
purchaser of the license, with her adj

signed she made the best Of it took the

Life on the Stage.

There is a fascinating legend af1oat
that other people pay for actresses
meals and recreationS! writes Maud
Banks. in an article on Stage Life for
Women" in he LadieS' Home Journal.
But it isn't so: ii all comes out of the
same thin pocket-bOok which provides
the drGSses, the ornaments, the adj
vertising fiourishes and the handsome
photographs. Other people do not do
anything for actresses without expect
inc pay; much more costly pay than
the last few dollars out of the thin
pocket-book This is the most eX-
pensive delusion actresses and would
be actresses have. 1t costs great many
health, courage. character and life.
When a woman pays with her wits or
her smiles, or with anything but
money, she will find in the end that no
quicker or more certain way could she
have taken to bankrupt herself.
Another thing: a dashing, smart,

salary, getting success or notoricty.

pays. Does it? Ask the dashing, un-
scrupulous women in ten years, in
