''Before I had finished the second bottle, 1
could sleep with a quiet mind, and eat with a
ready and refreshing appetite. 1 have taken
three bottles and am entirely cured of a my
sufferings. 1 have found DR.. Greene's Nerv-
ura blood and nerve remedy to be exactly
what it is represented.
81 cannot speak half highly enough of it. I
cheerful1y and earnestly recommend it to
everyone afflicted with disease. What gives
people absolute confidence in it, is it's being
the discovery of one of the best known and
most successful physicians.'
No remedy in the world is sure to bring
back bloom and color to the wan and faded
cheeks, the briliancy to the hollow and hag-
gard eyes, the lightness and elasticity to the
weak and weary steps, the strength and vital :
ity to the unstrung, shattered and worn out
nerves. 1t is, indeed, the greatest of all
spring medicines, for it makes the sick well
and strong.
1t is not a patent medicine, but the pre-
scription of the most successful living spec
ialist in curing nervous and chronic diseases,
DR. Greene, of "a Temple Place, Boston, Mass
He has the largest pracLice in the world, and
this grand medical discovery is the result OF
his vast experience. The great reputation of
DR.. Greene is a guarantee that this medicine
will cure, and the fact that he can be consult
ed by anyone at any time free of charge,
personally or by letter, gives absolute assur-
ance of the beneficial action of this wonder
full medicine.

Lincoln's best image is the boy of
America to whom he communicates
himself, his high impulse and example
his best pedestal, broad, free Union.
Yet if art would fifty commemorate
the rise of man without history what
better token of a humble woodman
matured to a great magistrate than a
rough, resinous American bough up
held against a storm in the firm grasp
of Liberty as flaming torch, I'M
quenchable, but too fast consumed,
and revealing through black night
of thunder peals and sobbing rains a
path on to gracious dawn, full
blown with the morning glories of the
old flag?

THE NEGLECT OF SPELLING.

The following extract from the Lou
isville Courier Journal is reproduced
here because of it's direct applicability
to many of the schools in our country
eff get in the school board again.
and I hope to, I shall labor to correct
one error which our schools are com
mitting," said a gentleman, who takes
great interest in educational cues
tiOnS.
eve are neglecting spelling, and
are doing pupils wrong. [ believe
that there should be spelling every
day through the school course up to
the very day of graduating. The pres
ident of a big company in this city
told me that he had to discharge four
stenographers, accurate in their short
hand work, but who spelled SO wretch
eddy that he was ashamed to send
their type written letters to other
business firms. It consumed too much
time to correct these errors, and he
simply had to keep changing until he
secured one who could spell credita
bly,.
Something similar to this was told
me the other day by the head of
Main street business house that has
twelve travelling men on the road. He
was simply amazed at the spelling in
the letters which they wrote back TO
the house. Eight out Of the twelve
could not write three lines without in
correctly spelling in the letters which
they wrote back to the house. Eight
three lines without Incorrectly spell
ing as many words, and the remaining
four were not guiltless Of errors. He
said that some of these young men
had taken a commercial course, wrote
an excellent hand, and were pushing,
hustling business men, but that their
poor spelling was always drawback,
and made an ,unfavorable impression
upon the older business men who
were taught under system that made
correct spelling the mark of highest
distinction"
We may supplement the above by
by saying that in our experience as
director we have been amazed at the
poor spelling of teachers in many APP
plications that have been filed with
the board for schools. We have in
variably made it a rule to vote against
all such applications.

In Spain beehives, kitchen pals,
and other culinary utensils are made
of cork, including pillows. In Italy
images and crosses are carved out of
1t, and footpaths are paved with it. In
Turkey it forms cabins for the cork
cutters and collins for the dead. In
Morocco it appears in the form of
drinking vessels, plates, tubs, and
water conduits In Algeria shoes, ar
NOR, and boats, and various articles
of furniture consume their share. Cups
made of cork have been recommend
ed for the use of hectic persons. One
familiar article in which a great deal
of cork is used in our own country is
the cork jacket, an ad junct to the out
fit of the mariner which cannot be dis
pensed with. This life protecting ap-
paratus, although no doubt a vast i'm
provement on the original, cannot be
classed among modern inventions;
for Plutarch, in his life of Camillus,
mentions that the messengers sent by
that general to his fellow citizens
when besieged in the Capitol used a
cork jacket in swimming across the
Tiber, the Gauls being in possession
of the bridge. The Portuguese use
cork for structural purposes, such as
roofing houses and lining wells, as
we'll as in articles of domestic use.

NOT r ESPECTABLE.

The custom of having baked beans
| for supper on Saturday nights, and
again on Sunday mornings, is so COM
mon in some parts of New England
that the servant who has lived in New
England families cannot easily adopt
herself to any change in this respect.
This was amusingly illustrated in
the case Of domestic named Hannah
who went to live with family who
had moved to New England from the
West.
On the morning of the first Satur-
day in her new home Hannah came
to her mistress, and asked, .
"Please, ma'am, where is the bean
pot?"
''The bean-pot, Hannah We have
not any"
''No, bean pot, ma'am ?'' said Han
ma, aghast.
''No, Hannah we never eat baked
beans"
"Don't eat baked beans =? Why,
ma'am what do you eat of a Saturday
night?"
"About the same that we eat on any
other evening, but we never have
| beans"
Hannah departed for the kitchen,
muttering something under her breath
and an hour or two later her mistress
CHANGED to overhear the following
conversation between Hannah and
friend who had called to see her =
"How do you like your new placer"
II don't think Pm going to like it
at all. [ just believe that these folks
are-are-well, [ just don't believe
they're respectable people"
"Why, Hannah?"
"Well, they never have baked
beans of a Saturday night, nor no
other time. So how can they be re-
spectacle ?''
The daughter of known
! jockey was very i'll, having caught a
severe cold. A doctor was sent for
and was buttonholed by the mother,
who requested him to favor her by
advising her daughter not to wear
! her low ankled shoes.
The daughter was sent for, and, af-
ter her tongue had been given the
usual out of door exercise, the doctor
said
"Ah, you are suffering from what
we medicine men call low shoe cold,
and I must prohibit you from wear
ing such shoes in the future"
The young lady started, and taking
off one of the offending shoes, ex-
claimed :
"Since you are SO clever, doctor, as
to look at my tongue and tell me what
is amiss with my feet, will you be
kind enough to look at my feet and
tell me whether my fringe is properly
adjusted?"
He gave up prescribing for smart
girls.

An authority on such matters says,
that for the floor the best possible fin
| sh is a printing of raw linseed oil and
Japan driers, rubbed off after an hour
or so, and left to dry. Then shellac
and polish with wax finish, which is
wax dissolved in boiling turpentine
spirits and can be bought ready for
use. The hall floor will be required
to withstand considerable wear, and
nothing can excel wax for this pur-
pose. When necessary, any strong
pair of arms is capable of renewing
the polish.

A Harlem man who works in a down

plaster on his cheek and pronounc-

wife began excitedly to question him.

it has had that Christening effect on me.
ION my last trip to Germany had to
run down from Hanover to Cassel, and
after we had been jogging along at a Sc
date pace of three minutes to the mile
for couple of hours or so, we came to
stop. looked out of the window and saw
that we were in the midst of a very pretty
country scene meadows and gardens, but
with nothing in the shape of a village to

So i concluded that 1t was either a way
side station for some district, or else that
an accident had happened. The only other
passenger in the coach, a Lutheran clergy
man put him to be, knew of no stopping
place there. so I lowered the door sash
to hunt up the conductor or guard.
"As I poked my head out l saw a man
that 1 took to be the fireman or engineer,
coming across the meadows with a big
bundle done up in a blue handkerchief,
swinging from nv hand, while his mate
was leaning out of the cab window, smok-
ing big pipe. The conductor was sitting
beside the track examining a belated wild
flower through his gold-rimmed specta-
cles, the escape steam was gently whis-
Ting through the valve, a few passengers
had their heads poked out of the other
carriage windows like mine, all appar-
emily watching the approach of the man
with the blue handkerchief with a sort
of good natured family interest. Alto
gether it was a very pretty, restful, pas
toral picture. 1 hesitated for a minute
to break in upon it, but when looked at
my watch and found that we had been
standing there for more than quarter
of an hour, I yelled to the professor-like
guard and asked him what was the mat
ter.
He arose and came smiling pleasantly
to the carriage window.
