By SUPERINTENDENT MORTON.

By orller of the State Superintend-
ent, all applicants for first grade GER
tificates will be required to complete
the work ia very short time.
The rank in class questions have
arrived at last and most of the
schools are supplied. Allpupils com
pleting the seventh years work will
be admitted to the examination
which will be held by the teacher hav-
ing a pupil OF that grade ! hope
that the teachers will grade the
MSS. accurately 80 that there may
be no disappoiutments when the
work passes through this Office.
There should be a large class receive
certificates.
Many questions are asked about
spring terms. They are few in
number and teacher usually has
a coveted prize before the Supt.
knows of the vacancy.
We expect our Normal institute to
be held in June as usual.
Term reports have been received
from E. Z. Fisher, Edith Manning
and +. F. Hubba rd.
The Washiugt on birthday exercises
by the departr ents below the high
room were considerably broken on
account OF sick ness ofthe pupils but
a good time is reported by those
present.

More OF our schools are suffering
at the present time from n lack az
daily preparation on the part of
the teacher than any other one cause.
The teacher can not impart to others
that which he himself does not know.
The knowledge should be fresh. 1t
should be inviting. 1t should be pre-
sented with authority. A little pre-
paration upon each lesson will re-
move this criticism. Let us have it
done.

there's the point; there's where to make
the attack. Most backaches come from
disordered kidneys; therefore you must

People in Wilmington arc testifying that
Doan's Kidney Pills cure bad backs, and
1t Ia not hard to prove their statements.
Here is one Of them:
Mrs. Phillip Riley Of 1903 North Orange
street says: 'My husband suffered with
alame back for five or six years He was
so bad at times that he could not lie in
bed and was compelled to sit up with
pillows behind him in order to get few
hours sleep. He also complained of his
all kinds Of weather and this greatly ag-
gravated the trouble. After trying q
number of medicines without getting any
benefit, ! induced him to give Doan's
Kidney Pills trial, having read so much
about them. He procured box at N. B.
Danforth's drug store and they acted
promptly and In short time cured him.
I have not heard him complain of back
ache since using them. We cannot say
enough in praise Of Doan'r Kidney Pills
for they are o remarkable preparation.
He has recommended them to number of
his friends and we are glad to do so at
every opportunity.

Evangelistic Services.

Rev. j. Manton Smith, tho English
evangelist, conducted services in West
Presbyterian Church on Sunday morning,
taking the text, "Of whom the whole fam
lily in heaven and earth Is namod;" Ephe-
SLAMS, 3, Is. After brief explanation Of
what Is meant by the whole family, and
the pleasantness Of q reunion in heaven
after the strife of the world is over he re-
ferred to the Importance of every member
in the church becoming workor, saying
1t was just as reasonable to speak of q
warm iceberg as cold christian. He
condemned the neglect of men to thank
God for tho many blessings they enjoy,
apparently forgetting thaS tho earth, the
gold and silver, as well as the cattle on a
thousand hills, all belong to God.
While the works of man are gradually
passing away tho work of God is going on
to completion. He illustrated his mean-
ing by referring to Isaac, Jacob, Joseph
David, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Paul
and other workers.for god and commended
their lives as worthy of imitation. In Or
der to give interest to his discourse no res
ferred to clergyman in ono of our wnst.
ern States who attended the great Sunday
school convontionhsld in London, England
solno two or three years ago. Provis-
sion had been made for his entertainment
by two young ladies and as he failed to ar-
he atterward made this explanation for
his delay Before leaving his home, young
man who had been converted under his
preaching, asked him to cali on his mother
in Bradford and tell her ho had become
christian. He concluded to do so, and vet
he mislaid tho direction of her residence.
In order to comply with his promise he
took the car on his arrival in London and
eventually reached Bradford, whero he
called on q gentleman who buried two
children within q few days, and he was
greatly cast down. He exhorted him to
look to Christ and by his recital to him of
the death of young daughter of rich
man in his own State, he became recon-
ciled and no longer mourned as one with
out hope of meeting his loved one in
house made without hands, where moth
and rust do not corrupt nor thieves break
through and steal.
Although the gentleman had been an
agnostic. his eyes were oponed, and like
Bartemus he was able to sxclam: 'where.
as was blind1 now see,' and accepted the
dispensntions of God without murmur-
ing. The clergyman on consulting the
directory was enabled to. find the old lady,
although the city of Bradford contained
800, 1000 inhabitants, and she was SO greatly
rejoiced at the good news from her son,
that he had to be her guest over two days.
The explanation to his hosts on his arrival
was highly satisfactory and all we pleas
ed that he had been instrumental in inus-
ing gladness into other hearts
Evangelist Smith is pleasing talker,
and also good vocalist. In tho afternoon
he entertained the Sunday school and in
the evening he preached to large congre-
cation.
