NO POLITICS IN SCHOOL

The welfare of the Nation demands that
our public school system be kept free from
political. partisan or s~ectarian influences.
Politicians may cut each others threats n
revel in partisan filth il they will, but the
subject of public education must not DO
dragged through the mire of politics
and personalities. 1t is the
duty of all Americans, men and women
alike, to. watch for and steadily resist any
and all attempts to besinirch our common
school system with the mud of ~partisanship,
on to Introduce therein the bias of section
alism or the faint OF Seetarianlsm. Pure
morality, upright honesty, and ardent
patriotism are the ethics which should
blenl with practical tuition TO moald
the hearts and minds OF young America The
policy which makes a teachers position the
reward of political service or a political pulp
must be sterniy rebuked. School Directors
who hold office by virtue OF partisan services,
or who value their positions according 60 the
perqntsites they afford, must give place to
honest, patriotic men who can appreciate
grave responsibilities, though they may be
unable 70 diseera q publishers brihe when

THE LARGEST SPIDER.

Ceylon is the home of the largest species Of
spider that has yet been made the subject OF
chronological investigation. This web spin
ming monster lives in the most mountainous
districts of that rugged island, and places his
trap-not a gossamer snare of airy hghtneSs,
but a huge net of yellow silk from five to ten
feet in diameter-across the ehasms and
assures in the rocks. The supporting
guys of this gigantic net, which in all cases
is almost strong enough for a hammock,
are from FIVE te twenty feet in length las con-
ditions and circumstances may required,
made of a series of twisted webs, the whole
being of the diameter of q lead pencil. As
might be imagined, this gigantic silken trap
is not set for mosquitoes, flies and pestiferous
gnats, but for birds, gaudy moths and ele-
gantly painted butterflies, some of the latter
having a spread of wing equal to that of a
robin or a blue jay. Some extra fine skele-
tons of small birds, lizards, snakes, etc,
have been found in these webs, with every
vestige of flesh picked from them. The
owner and maker of these queer silk traps is
a spider with a body averaging four and
one-half inches in width and six inches in
length, and with legs nine to twelve inches
long from body to terminal claw.-Ec-

SOME ARMY SURGERY.

We We're Obliged to wait at Paducah for
our boats and busted ourselves for two days
in aiding the surgeons and citizens, who
were untiring in their efforts to relieve
the suffering. Churches, stores and
schoolhouses were hastily improvlsed
into hospitals. Many private residences
were filled. Some of the most ~frightful
wounds of war we saw here; and decidedly
the worst surgery. One poor fellow was
wounded in both legs. A round ball had
entered the tleshy part of one leg and fat
tened on the bone, where it lay fmbedded.
The ball entered the other leg in front and
passed out at the thigh, SCATTERING and
splintering the bone. The surgeon laid him
on the table and cut off one leg; after
which he discovered that he had made q
mistake and taken off the wrong one;
he immediately Huned the sufferer over On
the other side and cut off the other leg.
This piece OF butchery was done by a doc
tor from a Western city. | have never re-
vealed his name, though the memory Of
thirty years has not etfaced. it nor the Incl
dent. He may live to recognize himself.
What became of the mangled body l nsvss

4 HAsTY WORD.


To think before you speak is so wise an
axiom that one would hardly think it need
full to emphasize it by repetition. And yet in
how many cases the hasty temper flashes out
the hasty word, and the latter does its work
with the precision and the pain of the swift
stiletto! S~fngularly enough, the hasty word
oftenest wounds those who love one another
dearly, and the very closeness of their
intimacy affords them opportunity for
the sudden thrust. We know the
weak points in the arInor of
our kinsInaH and our friend;
we are aware of his caprices, and ordinarily
are tender and compassionate even of bis
small fancies and whiins; but there dawns a
day when it is written in the book of fate
that we shall be as cruel as we are loving.
We are cold, or tired. or hungry. We are
anxious over unpaid bills, or our expected
letters have not arrived, on one of the chill
dren is ailing, and we dread the out
come of the malady. So politeness fails
us. fortitude is vanquished, phi
losophy is in allegiance, and we say that
which we repent in sackeloth and ashes.
But though the hasty word may be forgiven,
it is not at once forgotten. 1t has f1awed
the crystal Of our friendship; the place may
be cemented, but there is u shadowy scar on
the cleaning surface. Oh, il the word of haste
had but been left unspoken: il the strong
hand of patience had but held back the
sword as it was about to strlke.-HdIPeI's

BARGAINS,

To the average woman the bargain counter
presents very great attraction, almost a
temptation. Here is an article of use or
beauty marked down a few cents, or it may
be a few dollars, below its usual price. The
matron, intent on a shopping expedition, has
carefully made out her list, and fancles that
she knows precisely what she wants. Her
lack of the thing which is GU sale
sat a bargain has not been
manifest to her mind but the sight OF 1t, dis
played in all its ~cheapness, fires her magma
tion. 1t is a divan, one-third less In cost
than the divan she has been intending to seS
in a special corner of her drawing-room.
She purchases it at a bargain, and sends 1t
home t~riumphantly, forgetting that the
spreads and the pillows il will require TO
make it complete win bring it to a point far
beyond the original cost, and beyond the
modest sum she had set aside to cover the
entire outlay for this article.
This is only one ease among many, a
bargain in its first estate may be cheap, but
it is generally dear. The exception is when
bargains are bought, not on impulse but OF
set purpose. as, for instance, when a woman
buys clothing for a family at the turn OF
the season. It is surprising what a difter-
eice in cost there is sometimes found IN the
same grade of goods, the difference being IN
the fact that the merchant does not wish 20
carry his stock over from one season 10 an
other.
But this il not bargain buying. 1t is
merely purchasing with f~orethought, ands
belongs in the category with the thrift that
saves for IA rainy day.-HaFper'S Bazaar.

THE FIRST AMERICAN COIN.

The very earliest coinage that can prop
erly be said to be Hstrietly american" was
ordered by the original Virginia Company
in the year 1912, only five years after the
founding of Jamestown. These coins were
miated at Somers Islands, now known
as the BermutaS. For a period of
more than a quarter of a CEN
fury after this, however, tobacco and
beaver skins were reckoned as lawful cur
rency. In 1915 the Assembly of Virginia
met and declared that it chad maturely
weighed and considered how advantageous a
quoine COIN would be to this colony, and
how much betteri it would be- than a sole
dependency upon tobacco and pelts."
After this they provided for the
coinage OF copper coins of the de-
nominations of ~two-penee, t~hree-pence
six-pence and nine-penee; but this resolution
was never carried into effect. The first coin
age in America proper was the series OF
coins struck at Boston under the order of
the General Court of Massachusetts, passed
May -, 1872, the coins being three, six and
twelve pencc denominations, Sin forme tlatt
and stamped on Que side with the letters N.
e. and on the other the value OF the plses."

CHANGE.
Nice Clean Money Preferred by Nice
Neat wives.

Nice Clean Money Preferred by Nice
Neat wives.
Small change is indispensable in going
about d city. To nave only a fve-dollar bill
in one's purse when riding in an omnibus or
car is almost as bad as to have no money.
One requires small change and the thought
fnl husband supplies his wife with bright
ten-cent pieces and shinin G quarters just
as regularly as with fresh greenbaeks.
A woman prefers new and fresh money TO
that which is greasy and Solled, If she can
have her choice, and a certain good man,
known and loved i'll a large circle, always
makes a point of bringing home to his family
the wherewithal for domestic expense III a
very dainty shape. He is deservedly a
favorite.
Small change is as valuable in the commerce
of life in other departments as IN that OF the
e~xcheuuer. There are people who can talk
extremely well on learned and serious sub
jeets, but they ave no small change. The
S11ick lest and easy repartee of the drawing
room are not for them. Helplessly and
hopelessly, with gloom settling over Their
| faces, and despair in their souls, they sit by
while less gifted people chat and laugh and
have good times. The trouble is they are
destitute of small change;
This puts them at a disadvantage III socl-
etv. where there is not time for homllles and
tfeatises, but where everything IS freth and
foam. The airy butterfly flight of their
~neighbors c~onfuses and isturbs them. Their
forces must, so to speak, be drawn up in or
der, and prepared to charge IN the enemy,
horse, foot and dragons. All this takes
time and thought, and the enemy is up and
| away, skirmishing tr~iumphantly elsewhere,
before the unlncky opponent has arranged
his line of battle. By all means let those
who would succeed in society carry about
the small change of witty conversation

walked along with the fellow until he mel a

locked up in the Prince street station. The

A COSTLY KISS.
How an Impetuous Woman Paid
Fifty Dollars to


There is a story to the effect that when
Booth was travelling. having just closed
an engagement in Boston, he heard a.
handsome, middle aged lady back of him
sigh, and say to her companiom;--tI wotld
give fifty dollars to kiss that .nianH' Booth
.furned and looked at the speaker. DO
you mean thatg" he demanded, causing the
blood to mount up to the very roots of her
hair. ssWhy, yes, Of course ! doFt replied
the woman, confusedly, looking in a helples
sort of way at the great fragedian.
ssWeli, 7 accept the TERMS, lnadainFn ex-
claimed Booth solemnly. tsAnd I stand
by my proposition = said the woman, reeoy-
ering her self-possession, and, rising she
imprinted a sound kiss upon the actors
lips. Booths face did not ybetray the
slightest emotion. He received the kiss
stolidly, and waited until the irnpetuous
woman found her purse and handed him
Ia f~fty-dollar bill. He took the money,
thanked her, turning to a feeble, sliabbily
dressed woman, who was travelling with
two young children, placed the money in her
hands, and with a courtly bow, said: This
is for the children, madame. Take it,
please And without another word be EN-
teeed the car.
