of Style-as that most coveted by all

admiration is concerned, all the A. M. IS.

leads back to the old query, Do college
girls and other women given to intellec-
tual exercise care for such mundane
matters as looks and clothing? It may
safely DO assorted that they do. There
may be no definite, outspokcn views"
upon the matter, but the principle that
woman, to mako the most of her op-

wise, must both look and dress just as

COUNTY EDUCATIONAL MATTERS,
BY SUPERINTENDENT MORTON.

There are very few of our educators
that will acknowledge that our sys-
TEN is perfect. Some think that 1T
needs a wheel here, while Others think
u wheel there is requisit; some think
the kindergarten is necessary as Il
foundation; Others think that 1t
should be crowned with q university
course but we think that the MAORI
ty will agree that with or without
these two extremes, skilled PROBES
sional labor is necessary in all
grades.
1t is a fact, real and stubborn, that
each year the army OF teachers is re-
cruited with many regiments OF raw
infantry. 1t is the duty OF u asso-
Citations to take these new recruits
a process Of training that shall quail
fy them to stand the fire ofthe school
room. Our combined efforts should
be aimed at the weak points with a
view of strengthening them. 1t too
often happens t~hatteachers are prone
to criticise Il fellow worker not for
that wholesome purpose OF lettering
him in his school work but simply to
crafty a desire to weaken his infu-
ence as u possible rival in a future
contest for q position in some school.
This, OF course, is not patriotic. AS
u fraternity ranked by all as second
to none in it's relation to the citizen,
we should strive to make out rela-
tions to each other equal to the en-
Urgency that the times demand. We,
however, are not disposed to uphold
wrong methods of instruction or
wrong conduct upon the part OF any
OF our members.

One of Eincoln's Answers.

Speaking in a recent speech of cer- tain Washington experiences in Lin coln's time, Mr. Depew said: ''While I was there Nj. John Ganson, of Buffalo, was member of congress. His fcce and lis l2cad were hairless and polished like billiard ball. He was demo- crat. but supported the president. The conditions of the army were very blue in the e2st and in the west. Ganson came in one day and said: MT. Presi- dent, I am risl1ing my reelection in sup porting your war measures. The cam paign seems very unsatisfactory. Of course I will not give out anything you tell me. What is the situation at the front?' MT. Lincoln, in his searching and sad way, looked at him for mo- ment as if he were about to reveal the secret of the whole army, and then tumbled Ganson out of the reception room by saving: 'Ganson, how clean you shave"

INCREASING LENGTH OF LIFE.

Modern Heroines at Least Are Much
 Longer Lived Than Jane Austen's Were.
 Is the human race becoming longer lived despite the fret and fever of mod ern civilization? It is an interesting question, and it may very probably be answered some day by science in the affirmative. The longevity of profes- sional men is now generally considered to be greater than that of farmers and mechanics. In other words, intellectu- al activity, although in many respects more eXhausting than physical, has in the main salutary effect upon the human frame. It may be the nerves rather than the muscles upon which we mainly depend, after all. It is com monplace of observation that the big, hearty men are constantly dropping out of the world, while those of far more fragile organizations, apparently live on to ripe old age.
 As to the increasing longevity of the race generally, there is no little incl dental testimony on this head to be gathered from various sources. Some of the early heroes and heroines of TO- nance are old before they reach what we should call middle life. And at the beginning of our own century Jane Austen, whose testimony is always un, impeachable, speaks of the healthy and contented woman of forty as having a good prospect of twenty years of life yet. Twenty years! What woman ot to-day, asks the Providence Journal thinks of herself as falling into decrep itude at sixty? Elsewhere in Miss Aus. tens pages we run across people who are old with the passage of half a cen tury of life. But now we have Glad. stones at eighty and over, and think nothing of it.

A Crew of Deaf Mutes.

The schooner Mary and Belle is prob- ably the only vessel in the world that is manned by a crew that is deaf and dumb. The schoon f is not a large vessel by any means, being about seventy feet long, but she is neat looking craft and her decks, spars and rigging look ii much better condition than those of many other vessels whose crews can speak the language to the queens taste. The captain of this craft, George Bennett, is a most intel Esent-looking man, apparently fifty years old. He is alive to all that is go- ing on around him and seems to enjoy his silent and speechless life. The crew." Charlie Malone, is also deaf and dumb. These two deaf and d,lmb men manage the stanch schooner Mary and Belle admirably. They are always on the lookout and sleep with one eye open, as good sailors always should. When they are caught in heavy squalls the captain cannot shriek out his commands but simply at tracts his mans attention by a whistle and then tells him what he wants by signs, while he sticks to the wheel.

The Prince Took Of His Hat.

According to the Philadelphia Rec ord, the captain of the clipper Louisi- ana, which lately arrived at that port, tells a good story of the way an Amer ican boy, without making himself of fensive, extorted tribute from royalty. While the Louisiana was ly- ing at Dublin, the prince of Wales, who was then the guest of the lord mayor of the Irish capital, sent word to the captain that he would like to come on board and see what an old-time American clipper-ship was like. The captains son heard what was going on, and declared that he would make the prince tip his hat to him. He knew, it seems, that the prince was not in the habit of uncovering in this way. When the royal party came on board the boy appeard on deck waving the American flag. The prince, seeing the national colors, lifted his hat, and the rest of the party followed suit, to the great delight of the captains son, who thus had made good his boast.
