IND USTRL4L INSTRUCTION.

A Tact not recognized generally by ' parents, for the reason that they do not give the subject the necessary amount of thought, is that the critical point in a students course preparatory to high school or college is at the be- ginning. A well known educator once said, Give your best teachers the en- tering classes, the next best the sec ond-year classes and your weakest teachers the higher classes" The fact is that success, in education as in other lines, depends largely upon the start.
 In class work the pupil gets little help. The first years work should be understood absolutely, and the positive knowledge gained simplifies the rest of the course. G. A. Booth has struck the keynote in this matter by giving his pupil individual attention. What the pupil is taught under these conditions he learns positively. The teacher of a large class requires an hour each day to ascertain the amount of work done by each individual, while under MT. Booths system the hour is spent in making clear some obscure point or passage which the pupil cannot master by himself. Instead of holding the boy up to the ridicule of his class he is plac- ed in the hands of a skilled and experi- enced teacher and helped through his difficulty, the point being made so clear that it will never trouble him again.
 The direct result of such teaching is noticeable. The pupil shows a self-re- liance heretofore unknown. There is no uncertainty now, for he knows his subject positively and can argue point with any one. Again, under this sys- tenn we find an entire absence of the so- called dull boy or dull girl" We find that the trouble has been with the teacher or the system previously em- ployed.
 A personal inspection of the method employed in MT. Booths school will convince the most skeptical of its value, the thoroughness of instruction, the saving of time and the process of in stilling into each pupil confidence and the reliance so essential to success. The busy, hard-working and withal happy life of the pupil, and finally the excel lent result attained in this school. c an- not fail to impress the parent It is Mir. Booths purpose to have the best school in the state and the rapid strides he is making in that direction is some thing out of the ordinary. He has an excellent class of pupils, who are earn estly working and who will be a credit to themselves, their teachers and their principal.
 The thinking public are cordially in- vited to inspect this school and the method employed. MT. Booth would be pleased to receive calls at any time.

THE DIFFICULTIES OF AN ENGLISH
 LETTER CARRIER

For some reason or other in our little fishing village the old residenter was superseded by a new postman. We re- scented the slight thrown upon the village. One week convinced the man himself that it was impossible for a stranger to deliver the letters. On Monday morning he could not arrange his bundle. The so- called streets were not named, nor were the houses numbered. He began by in- curing from door to door but could not get an owner for a letter For he in- yariably used the distinction instead of the surname
 At length he discovered his mistake When he asked for Mrs. James Euphemia instead of Mrs. James Thompson (Eu- phemia), Mrs. Warrender (JaneO took pity upon the pair cralttur and ex- plained the addresses to him. The expla- nation did not enlighten him much, for we were not otherwise disposed to help him. At length, in despair, he bought a "pund O sweeties' and went down to the beach. He induced the boys and girls with the promise of the "sweeties to take the letters to their mothers. But he learned little by watching them, as they dived out and in through the closes and courts like rabbits in warren. by the same means he delivered the letters for three days, and then asked to be re- moved. We thus scored against the au- thorities, and our old postman was re- stored to his place.-Chambers Journal.

ABOUT GLASS EYES.

The popular idea is that the artificial eye is in the form of a sphere and com pletely fills a cavity after the removal of the natural organ. In point of fact, the glass eye has about the same shape as a portion of an eggshell cut off very close to the smaller end. The white of the glass eye is one-fortieth of an inch thick, while the cornea, or the colored portion, is one-twentieth of an inch thick The use of the enamel gives a perfectly smooth surface, under which are made, in exact reproduction of the natural eye, the minute veins seen cov- ering the white portion. The cornea has a very slight elevation, and in colol
 can be made to match any orb. The edge of the glass is sometimes ground and used without any further finish. Ground edges are liable to produce frri- tation. The best glass eyes are those which have delicately enameled edges, presenting, even under the microscope, no roughness of surface in any part. The most favorable condition for the use of glass eye is that in which the organ still remains in the socket, al- though shrunken and destroyed for all of sight. In the majority of cases the oculist tries upon the patient

A FARoE VILLAGE.

Here and there an old man sits at his cottage door mending his rakes or fit ting the short straight blade of his scythe to it's long wooden handle. The village carpenter has finished his days work on the boat which he is building, and is carrying in what re- mains of the wood and of the woolen yarn with which he calks the seams. Perhaps a man may be seen in some corner chopping up a hard black mass with an aX. The mass is dried whale s flesh, and he will boil it down for his COW to eat for he has been too busy all day in the hayfield to take her be- yond the wall to pasture.
 Behind little walls, built half of stone and half of whales skulls, huge black caldrons of fish oil, each presided over by a woman or child, are steaming on fires of peat or of fresh whales bones. On the shore some men and boys, who have been out to catch saith or to shoot a few puffins for their even ing meal are dragging up their long, narrow boat over rollers of whales ribs. Round the houses. or where they dare in the steep hayfields, the children are romping; the younger among them dragging about the bones from the whales backs like toy carts, though carts are things which they have never seen- On some patch that is already mown the older ones play at game

ALAMEDA VOTED SHORT,
 BUT VOTED WELL
From Indications Nearly All or the Officers Will Be Re-
 rublicans

ALAMEDA, Nov. 8.-The vote of Ala meda this year fell about two hundred short of that of 1896. From indications the Republican nominees, with the ex- ception of T. c. Stoddard for County Clerk, have carried this city by satisfac- tory majorities.
 Gage has fully seven hundred majority.
 Jones, for Congress, made no showing whatever against Metcalf. E. K. Taylor for the Senate from the Twenty-eighth District, has run ahead of his ticket robin polling very small vote.
 J. R. knowland for the Assembly, has beaten E. A. Holman fully four to one The Supervisorial contests are close J R. Talcott will go out of this city with a. majority of 100 over Heyer the normal Republican majority in this section being five hundred.
 w. +. Church and J. P. Glascock are favor of Church leaving this city with a small majority. George Lovegrove Qnd) cuts little figure in the fight.
 In the Sheriff's fight Oscar Rogers has a walkoyer, 90 per cent of the ballots be- ing in his favor. T. c. Stoddard developed great strength all over the city and IL is generally conceded that he will beat Jordan by. about two hundred. Jordan polled the heaviest vote in the section which is part of Church's Supervisorial District
 Jtmes B. Barber for Tax Collector has ruTa ahead of his ticket. O. A. Lane did not poll the strength of the Democratic vote. Spear seems to lead in the Record er'9 fight, with Grim a good second and McDonough far in the rear.
