February could not leave us until
we were assured that it is d winter
month.
We are taking d deep and Goa
tlnued SIGH when We remember tha
the schools of Garrett must clcsa
lnear the middle of winter. It j. ;
appear to me that some plan cJu,d
'be worked to give us six months
school each year and not cripple us
financially. Six months sonoo,
would be so much better in many
ways.
LIST, BY encouraging our teachers
to better prepare for teaching and
sticking to it as profession.
I'd, The teachers can accomplish
twice as much during u little longer
term, as all know that have tried
it, that it takes some time for
teacher and pupil to get acquainted
and the school classed to do effec-
fual work.
4 3D., We are robbing our children
pta treasure that is worth more to
thm than gold; gold may be taken
4Nay. education cannot. 1t may
bemisused or abused but cannot be
<taken away from them.
4th, 1t costs but very little more
for long term, except the pay of
teachers, as we have our corps of
officers to pay and school buildings
to keep just the same.
5th, The short term drives from
us the most intelligent and their
places are filled by the CARELESS and
indifferent.
Those in authority, to whom we
look for help, do your best fnan-
ceering to get our schools to com
pare favorably with our sister coun-
ties in every way, especially in
length of term. I was in Gap Run
school part of the forenoon of
Monday and If | know anything
about a school | never witnessed IA
more pleasing sight than seen there.
A beautiful school house, an indus
trions and pleasant teacher and
scholars equally as industrious, and
trying to please the teacher and the
recitations were very good. Thanks
to the School Commissioners for
having our house repaired.
Truman Casteel has about thirty
acres Of ground cleared on the
"Casteel farm" or so near cleared
that the fire will do the balance
when dry weather comes.
Some of our farmers have com
menced erecting their lime pits.
This is right, burn them early in
the season to give the lime time to
slack and be applied to the ground
before the dry season commences.

Let The Truth Prevail.
Editor ofThe Republican.

When "T. Jay" rehashes his
windy and wormy ''chestnuts" for
the Cumberland NewS asserting
that "there are no underlined nor
unassessed lands in Garrett coun-
ty," he either proves his ignorance
of the facts or he deliberately and
Intentionally attempts to deceive the
public by making dogmatic asser-
tons which he and all intelligent
citizens of Garrett county know to
be absolutely untrue?

Albuquerque, NEW MExIco.-The
geographical location of this region Of
the Rocky Mountains is such as to eX-
clude the possibility of the presence of
moisture from either ocean or any
other large body of water. The air is
so pure and clear that our perception
of distance seems to be almost 'annihi-
lated, the mountains some twenty
miles to the east, appearing only two
or three miles distant. The bodies of
animals dying on the plains dry up,
becoming mummified. May we not
have here the ideal long sought for by
every surgeon-a pure aseptic atmos-
phere, entirely free from germs
Bright, sunny skies, some portion of
the day, is the rule even during the
rainy season; two or the pleasant
days often intervening between the
showers. The winters are extremely
mild. The ground was not covered
with snow a single day during the
past winter. During the past seven
months there were only four entirely
cloudy days-a land of almost perpet-
ual sunshine, it even being extremely
comfortable, throughout the winter
months, to sit outdoors many hours of
the day and enjoy the luxury of a
mid winter sun bath.

The spider giant of the world in
Central and Northern South America,
ranging to the north as far as the
southern border of Mexico. He is the
titan of the migale species, and from
his habit of preying upon the smaller
representatives of the feathered tribes,
is usually referred to as the "bird-
catching spider" This formidable in
sect has a body from 4 1-2 to 6 1-2
inches long; his diameter, with legs
extended, being, in some instances,
as much as fifteen inches. The nests
of these creatures resemble those
made by the larger caterpillars those
lnhabiting tropical countries-consist-
ing of a beautiful white silken tissue,
the whole strengthened by very strong
threads, capable of instantly arrest
ing the flight of any bird not larger
than a common English sparrow,
This species of spider is very powerful,
being provided with wicked looking
instruments of attack, with which
it not only destroy small, harmless
birds, but the larger lizards and other
REPTILES.

A Boy ON BREATHING.-A boy, IA
years old, recently imported from
Kentucky, handed the following in as
a composition on breathing" The
instruction was. "Tell me all you
can about breathing" He said
"Breath is made of air. We breathe
with our lungs, our lights, our liver
and kidneys. If it wasn't for our
breath we should die when we slept.
Our breath keeps the life a-going
through the nose when we are asleep.
Boys that stay in room all day
should not breathe.
"They should wait till they get out
of doors. Boys in room make bad,
unwholesome air. They make Car
bonicide. Carbonicide is Eoisoner
than mad dogs. A heap of soldiers
was in tlack hole in India, and a
carbonicide got in that there hole and
killed nearly every one afore morning.
Girls kill the breath with corsets, that
squeezes the diagram. Girls can't
holler or run like boys, because their
diagram is squeezed too much. If |
was girl, I'd rather be boy, so
can holler and run and have a great
big diagram"

japanese Lacquer---In paper read
before the Chemical Society of Wash
ington, Mr.. R. Hitchcock has urged
that American manufacturers give
too little attention to japanese lacquer.
This is a product of the Rhus verni-
cifera, large tree growing through:
out the main island of Japan, and
is adapted for great variety of uses.
It gives surface to wood harder than
the best copal varnlsh, without brit
tleness takes an unexcelled polish,
lasting for centuries and seems to be
insoluble in every agent known, boil
ing water, alcohol and acids having
no effect upon it. In Japan it is used
for many household articles. Danger
of poisoning from the fresh material
is serious, but it is thought that gentle
heat may drive off the volatile acid
to which the poisonous properties are
attributed, without injuring The
lacquer.

once knew a distinguished politi.
clan whose wife was his private secre-
tary and best helper. Do you imag-
inc they were bored if left alone for
an evening? AS a matter of fact
their mutual affection was envied by
other couples.
Many men, however, like to be dis
tracted, amused soothed. I even
know one noble woman that became
anamateur photographer to help her
husband.
But a wise woman, again, has
another quality, quite as necessary in
friendship as interest: the quality
that some one has called the oil of the
machinery of life-tact. Such a
woman is aware that "absence makes
the heart grow fonder," and that her
husband will love her and value her
all the more for occasional losses OF
her society. "Let him 60 to his club,
now and then," said the wife of the
most devoted husband I know; che

he likes to tell what he hears to me
as much as I like to hear him w

A Church Scene.

"Closing with the Doxology in long
metre" said the minister, after giving
out the last hymn. The hymn was
duly sung, with the congregation a
half beat behind the choir. Then the
organist began to pull out stops and
experiment with transitions, till final
ly he slid into the right key, then he
pushed down all the pedals he could
get his feet upon, gave the few stops
remaining an uncalled for vicious
twitch, and began to thunder forth
"Old Hundred"
The average New Yorker straight
ened up, grasped hold OF the back OF
the pew ahead of him, glanced placidly
around, and Joined the multitude OF
worshippers in the grand old choral.
In sonorous tones he sang:
Praise God from whom oil blessings flow,
Here he turned around and shook
out the creases of his overcQat, and
then, as he drew on one sleeve and
hunGhed his back and wrigged his fin
gers and squirmed as he felt for his
other sleeve, he proceeded with his ad-
oration,
Praise him, all creatures here below,
This tribute was paid with an ever
increasing scowl, as the sleeve that
was tightly grasped by the fingers
slipped while penetrating the overcoat
sleeve and could not be recaptured,
though the fingers of the worshipper
tWitched as swiftly and frantically as
those of virtuso in the last agonies of
a violin concerto. However, by the
timely aid of his wife, who unselfish-
ly stopped adjusting her own ward
robe for the purpose, the coat sleeve
was regained, and the overcoat we'll
put on, the bunch in the back smooth
ed out by the time the worshipper
called on the angelic throng to unite
with him in his devotions in these fer
vent words:
Praise him above, ye heavenly hosts,
But apparently the abode of these
ministering spirits was under the pew,
for, while chanting this invocation,
the worshipper bent over and groped
on the floor for his hat and umbrella.
The search was painful, and, though
the posture was humble and the senti-
ment edifying, there was an express
sion of suppressed rage on the devout
mans face which was more demOnlac
than celestial. But by the end of the
line the articles were discovered and
collected, whereupon the worshipper
again Strengthened up for the closing
alteration to the Trinity, which was
rendered with a running obligato, or
"stage business" somethinglike this
"Praise Father" here he angrily wip-
ed the dust off his hat-"Son''-pull-
ing out his gloves and dusting his coat
with them-"and Holy Ghost"-but-
toning up his coat. He then bent rev.
erently to receive the benediction,
glancing sidewise towards his wife as
be did so, to see if she had kept up
in the race, and would be ready to
lump for the aisle with him as soon as
they heard "Amen "-Christian at
Work.

The Mother.

As we 90 on in life, we find more
and more that there Is no love so per-
feet, so unchanging as mothers
the love that abides fast where all
else wavers. But often we see sons
and daughters who seem to be careless
of this treasure. They fail to realize
how precious it is. They try to "do
right" to be kind, but they omit
many little offices of love which would
brighten the sunset hours of the dear
mother.
They love her, of course they do; but
the outward tokens are withheld. Of
ten she sits lonely, missing her early
friends, perhaps her husband, gone to
the heavenly home and her children,
immersed in care or pleasure, are ap'
parently oblivious of the fact that the
one to whom they owe most, whom
they love most, is left to desolation OF
spirit, yearning for word of tender.
ness from her own children.
Show your mother that you love
her. Let your affection wrap her
around like a garment. Speak the
kind, reverent, cheerful word now ;
see that she has every comfort now :
soon it will be too late.
In the evening twilight sit close be-
side her. Clasp the pale hands.
Touch the white hair gently. Re.
member that soon the white locks will
be brushed smooth for the last sleep;
the brow will be cold {; the tender
mother-eyes will be closed the dear
lips speechless. Then the words and
acts Of affection, which are now posi-
BILE. cannot reach her. Never more
can you speak one syllable of love to
her, or perform one act of kindness
for your mother. How you will then
need such blessed memories They
will be as a benison of peace.-Farm
and Fireside.

What the Doctors Say.
Alcohol is q poison.

l. Alcohol is poison.
2. When taken into the system it is
not assimilated, but passes the round
of the circulation, and is finally
thrown off through the organs of ex-
cretion, unchanged.
8. While passing through the body
it disturbs the various physiological
processes, and in this way lays the
foundation for disease.
4. 1t does not stimulate nor strength
en-, but it depresses and weakens.
5. AS it is not assimilated, it can not
be a food.
6. AS it disturos every physiological
process, it can not be medicine.
Z. There is no disease atfiicting the
body that can not be more successfully
treated without than with the use OF
alcohol.

Az Wise as she Is Good.

We're she as wise woman as she
often is good, she would look about
her to discover among her friends
what women most successfully hold
their own against the outside tempters
of their husbands. She would throw
her theories into the waste basket, and
make fresh set of facts seen by hel
own eyes. I think she would dis
covef-this, at least, is what one
humble observer has discovered-that
unless woman is interesting to q
man she cannot permanently hold
him,
