Cause Discussion in the Board of Educa-
tion.
At Mondays meeting of the Board
of Education Robert G. FraIm, the
newly -elected member from this Sixth
ward, was sworn in and took his seat.
The principal matter of interest was
a lively discussion over the matter of
increasing salaries. On motion OF Mr..
Turner, the vote ny which the report of
the teachers committee had heen
adopted at the last meeting was recon
sidered, after which he moved that ths
norton of tho report referring to the
increase of the salaries of Miss Corbit,
clerk to Superintendent Harlan, from
$500 to $500 and NJ iss Lewis, teacher OF
pedagogy, from 800 tu $500, be stricken
out, allowing this salaries to remain as
herotofore. Mr.. Belts moved to amend
by referring the matter back to the
committee on teachers. Mossrs. Fyle,
Rommel and Morrow spoke in favor OF
allowing the report to stand, while
Mr.. Turner spoke in favor OF tho
motion. President Shortlidge declared
the motion out of order, according to
tho rules. stating that the salarieH had
been fixed for next year and the persons
reappointed had accepted, wbereupon
MIR, Turner said he considered the
action haaty and thought it was not
''straight business. In view OF the
decision OF the chair, W motion OF Mr.
Morrow, the report of the committee
was readopted.
There was another contention over the
matter Of tho board being represented
at the convention of tine National Edu-
cational Association, which will he held
in Washington next week. Mr.. Morrow
moved that in view of the fact that
Superintendent Harlan did not care to
90, the board send Principal Berlin OF the
High School, Assistant Superintendent
Miss Williams and Miss Mendinnall,
principal of the training school. Some
of the mem oers thought il unnecessary
to send so many delegates, but sng-
gestIons we're made that Miss Turner
Of No. 4 School, Miss Taylor of No 20,
Miss Savers of No. and Miss M lller
of No. "a he added to the delegation.
1t was finally decided, by rising vote,

cipal Ut the training school being lost

According to Milton the first thing Eve
did after leaving Adams side was to survey
her charms in silvery pool. No doubt she
was snlendld creature, but beauty is not
the heritage Of all her daughters, and many
of them resort to "Glenn's Sulphur Soap"
TO obtain the dazzling complexion which
Eve received from nature. The great merit
Of this unexcelled cosmetic is that it leaves
notraces Of artilicia!ity. Beware ofcounter-
feits. Sold by druggists. But the most
brilliant complexion with gray hair would
be an anomaly. and therefor this blemish
should be removed by the use of Hills
instantaneous Hair Dye" which is unsur.
passed alike in cheapness and the perfection
of color it bestoVs.

United state. Mail Protectors.

The United Statesgovernmentisso some
times served for years by valuable serv-
ants who are not even boarded at the
expense of the government. These
servants are cats. Rats are one of the
persistent dangers that. threaten the
United States mail. They destroy the
bags and the mail matter. The post
Office building in New York city is
large building, and now many years
old. 1t is said that there are 60 cats in
the building cared for by the clerks.
Some of the cats have never lived any
where else; others have come in from
the neighborhood. The cats who have
known only this home are very shy of
strangers and will come only to the
clerks in the building. So you see that
the government is served without pay
by these faithful servants who prevent
the destruction by rats of valuable
property and all that is given them is
shelter.-Outlook.

Leader of Some Kind

Every City. Great and Small, Has q
Leader of Some Kind.
One who has Travelled pretty much
all around the globe, made a peculiar
observation at social gathering law
nights since. He had noted that every
city and almost every village had a
dominant attraction, no matter in what
part of the globe the attraction was Sc
placed. He was somewhat SURPRISE
that Cincinnati had nothing so far out
classed other attractions as to be tire
first thing suggested as worth vast.
He was inclined to think that the SUM-,
mer resorts would have been the thin
in the proper season, and then mex,
to these the Art museum.
'Now," he said, IF you go to London
the first thing is, have you seen Wind
sor or the tower? In Paris they Say
have you seen the Moulin Rougue OF
the Chat Noir? and neither is worth
seeing. In Texas, if you are in San
Antonio, they will say, have you seen
the Alamo? and in San Francisco, have
you seen the Golden gate?
"As you come east, if you stop in
Salt Lake City, they want to show you
the temple, and in St. Louis they take
you first to Shaw's garden. Then you're
through with that place unless they in
sist on showing you Simmons, the big
gest hardware house on the earth.
"At Chicago they ask you to visit the
stock yards, and finally ask you if you
are stopping at the Auditorium. Of
course, at Niagara its the falls, and at
Buffalo it's the grain elevators. Once
was in the valley of the Roanoke, in
Virginia, and dozen times I was asked
il had seen the pear orchard of Mr..
Somebody, who has the largest peach
and pear orchard in the world.
I'm fact, never was in place any
where in all my travels where there
wasn't an attraction of some kind,
though it may have been only factory
or a bit of natural scenery. Every
place has a leading attraction, and if
you are visitor you are sure to be
made aware of the leading place to
visit. Commercial Trib-
