Wisconsin Teachers Association.

The Wisconsin Teachers Associa-
tion met in Milwaukee last week
agreeable to announcement, and I'M
der the Presidency of Prof. w. j. Brier
of this city, the meeting was marked
success in spirit, in the range Of dis
cussion taken, and the number OF
persons in attendance was far in ex-
cess of any previous assembly.
The notable features of work was
the address of Pres. G. X. Adams of
Wisconsin University, in which he
reaffirmed the relations of university
work to general public education
and with all the speaker felt called
upon by recent newspaper criticism of
university management to defend the
university, though the association was
found to be in sympathy with Pres.
Adams, as undoubtedly, the general
public is. The other important ques-
tion was that raised by Prof. Brier in
his presidential address, which was
warmly commended and for which he
received vote Of thanks, wherein the
Professor showed the evils OF the
effor. of many local high schools to
shape their courses toward the uni
versity, and of holding all students
who desire gradution, to one standard
fixed by the university in approving
the courses. President Briefs posi-
tion is undoubtedly correct that the
| local high school should frame its
courses so as to encourage many pu-
pills to finish-gradually to raise its
standard when the general public
sentiment shall sustain such advance.
AS these successive advance steps are
taken, requiring years for their entire
| development land just here is where
young teachers full of personal ambi-
| tion lack wisdom Of waiting for
growth of an institution the ripest
sentiment in the community can
shape the course of study so that a
good number of latest graduates shall
find their high school study suitable
preparation for university entrance.
The election of officers resulted in
the choice of Prof. Arthur Burch of
the 10th district school of Milwaukee
for president, and of Supt. G.. G. Will
liams of Douglas county for secretary.
We are pleased to see Pierce county's
product continues in the line Of officers
of the association. Supt. Williams
was successful teacher in this county
during many years, before his resi-
dence in Superior.
OF the Normal faculty there were
in attendance at Milwaukee, Profs.
Brier, Ewing, Clark, Shultes. Hath
| erell, Smith, Peckham, Sheridan.
County Supt. Shaw was in attend
ance upon the association and of the
convention of county superintendent
called by the state superintendent.

numberless so-ealled r,medies, and physi-

] was suffering very much, and had never
succeeded in getting anything that would
give me but temporary relief, and that was
of very short duration. The first bottle OF
Athlophoros made very decided change,
in fact hrd some relief from few doses.

it is six months since / had a severe at

time; / have some at my Office and some
at home, so that in case should need it i
am we'll prepared. have had times dur
ing my use of this medicine that my neu-
ralgia would come on during my business
hours, and by having the medicine close
at hand a dose or two would drive the
neuralgia away. For neuralgia Athlo-
phoros is undoubtedly the best medicine,
and I think I auobt IN kuow aa I have
during the many years that have suffered
had occasion TO try about every thing in
the line of medicines for this complaint"
Every druggist should keep Athlophoros
nd Athlophoros Pills, but where they can
not be bought of the druggist the Athlo-
ohoros Co., liz Wall ST., New York, will
send either carriage paid on receipt Of

a novelist laws down the N

A novelist lays down the following
dicta with regard t. marriage:
Some women in marrying demand
al and give all: with good men they
are happy, with base men they are
broken hearted. Some demand every
thing and give little; with weak men
they are tyrants, with strong men
they are divorced. Every bachelor is
really the husband of an old maid, for
every single man carries around with
him the spirit Of a woman to whom
he is more or less happily welded.
When a man actually marries, this
inner helpmate wisely disappears in
the presence of her external con-
temporary"

There is world of truth in the
following from contemporary:
MANY an unwiSe parent works hard
and lives sparingly all his life for the
purpose of giving his children a good
start in the world, as it is called.
Starting young man out with money
left him by his relatives is like tying
bladder under the arm of one who
cannot swim. Ten TO one he will lose
the bladder and go to the bottom.
Teach him to swim and he won't need
the bladder. Give your child a good
education. See that the morals are
pure, his mind cultivated and his
whole nature subseryient TO the laws
that govern man and you give what
will oe of more value than the Indies.
You have given him a start no mis-
fortune can deprive him Of. The
cartier you teach him to depend upon

Prof. George f. Becker writes that
in regions near the pole ice is as much
a rock as limestone. This may re-
mind some who might not have
thought of it otherwise that the
essential difference between ice and
granite, considered as rocks, is mere
ly matter of the greater or less de-
gree of heat it takes to ''thaw' them.

No man should fear death any more
than he fears life. One is as natural
and necessary as the other. We did
not select the hour of our coming nor
will we the time of our departure.
We did not step from nothing into
being, nor will We from being into
nothing. The call-boy summons us
upon the stage to play that part which
the great Dramatist has assigned us:
aud when we have spoken our piece
we disappear.
BY the measure of the geologic Pc
RODS the individual life is but an
electric fiash-a dot of light-in a con-
tinuous message reaching from ever
lasting 10 everlasting.
Only one thing is certain-God; and
continuity is part OF God, and hence
immortality is necessary because we
are an output Of God and that which
is of God cannot terminate.
We suffer coming into this world.
and we suffer going out of it-but the
child remembers not its pangs,-nor
will the dead.
Teach your children TO face dea III
as they face life-with fearless, but
reverent spirit; remembering the
tremendCusneSs of the Divine Force
and the absolute lttleness of every
thing else.-J. W. Savage.
