Brushes. Brushes: Brushes

This is just the time when every
body wants good brush, and Saur
& Balsley's Paint and Wall Paper
Store is the place to get them. In
cleaning house one of most useful
articles is good duster and scrubing
brush. The whitewash brush is
still in demand. The painter, in or
der to do good, nice work must have
good brushes; you need good brushes
for cleaning your horses, your shoes,
your clothes, your teeth. In fact
good brushes are alwaysthe best and
cheapest to buy for the reason that
they will do the work much nicer
and last enough longer to make up
the difference in price when there is
any. Remember that Saur & Balsley
buy their brushes direct from the
manufacturers, that every paint,
varnish or whitewash brush, which
sheds it's bristles or comes to pieces
before being worn out, will be re-
placed if you bring the handle to
Saur & Balsley's drug and paint store.

Letters Mailed Under Cover.

Postmasters often receive let
ters under cover. For instance,
a person living in another place
writes a letter, puts in an en-
velope and addresses it to the person
for whom it is intended, and placing
the whole in another envelope ad-
dresses it the postmaster, say at
Wapakoneta, o., with the request
that he mail 1t from his Office. The
object is to not disclose the place
from which heletter was mailed, but
before dispatching such letters, post
masters are required to stamp or
write across the face of the letter:
"This retter received at Wapakoneta,
Ohio, under cover, from the postmas-
ter at, with request to renal. =
The postmaster has no choice in this
matter, as the rules of the depart
ment require that he putthis endorse
ment on it.

American We. German.

Professor Waetzold, who was the
German School Commissioner at the
Worlds Fair, has just made a report
to his government. tits exceedingly
complimentary to the American
school. Among other thing he says
'In this school the Americans are
in every way superior to the Ger
mans, most notably in teaching Ian
guages, drawing and modelling. 1t is
surprising what command of Ian
guage the American school children
have. German teachers dwell too
much upon style, while Ameri-
can teachers aim to give the child q
command of diction." II there is
anything in which the Germans have
been taught to be ahead Of all other
educators it is teaching Of languages.
It is a surprise, therefore, to have
the commissioner say that their pub
lie school system is in this respect be-
hind ours. Ohio Educational Month

A Surnrise.

The friends and acquaintances Of
Mr.. Gust. Glass, of Holgate, gave
him q complete surprise Monday
evening, by taking control of his
home and managing matters to suit
themselves. What occasioned this
surprise visit was the anniversary of
Mr.. Glasses 32d birthday, which his
friends thought needed more than a
passing notice. The evening was
pleasantly spent, the good wife of
the host preparing bountiful re-
past for the guests, which was en-
joyed hugely by all present. AS q
token of their esteem, Mr.. Glass was
made the recipient Of number Of
useful presents. When the hour for
returning home came around, many
we're the well wishes for the future
OF Mr.. Glass and his wife, with a
hope that he might live to celebrate
many more birthdays.

Commissions Delayed.

The tardiness of the Secretary of
State in sending out the commissions
of the recently elected Justices of the
Peace, has made bad complications
in certain townships, where the COM
missions of the old justices had
expired and the new ones had not yet
received their commissions. Notably
was this SO in Harrison township,
where the commission of the old JUS
tice having expired he refused to act
longer, and the new justice not hav-
ing his commission, practically left
the township without a J. p, to the
detriment of many itigants.
