Peculiarly About the Nussze siunGe
Fish.
A few weeks ago l advanced what
was to me the curious information re-
carding the shedding Of its teeth by
the muskellunge during the summer
months, says a writer in Forest and
Stream. I COW have confirmation on
the matter advanced at that by Mr.. II.
J.. Stanton, Of Chicago, and I believe
the phenomenon properly to be re-
gardcd as established. Mr.. Stanton's
observations were made in Wisconsin,
ard his original informant had seer
the prenornenon in Canada. Now comes
Mr.. II. G. Mccartney, of Chicago, who
has observed the same thing in the
waters of Cass and Itasca counties
of Minnesota. Mr.. Mccartney says
that last spring in May and June the
teeth Of all the muskellGnge taken in
Woman lake and adjacent waters were
sound and normal. On July 10 he eX-
amined fish which showed jaws red
and infamed, and with some of the
teeth missing. In August still more
teeth were found to be absent in speci-
mems examined. In late August and
in September it was the rnle that no
teeth at all would be found in the
mouths of the muskellunge taken. The
muskcllunge taken in October all
showed perfect teeth. Mr. Mccartney
intends to keep record on this matter
next year He does not know whether
the teeth are she'd yearly or not, but
knows that they are shed sometimes.

cipal's room, % il the srd, 46 in the
End and 76 in the primary room. :
total of 161 scholars. The latter room
is much too crowded for good work
and those children under six years o.
age have been returned home for the
| present It will be necessary to re.
open the fifth room, as during the lat
ter part of last term, for the accommo.
dation of allthe scholars. The high
er kinderg arten grade, where those
| under six years should be classed, will
probably be placed in the new room.
Everything in the school rooms has
started off smoothly and we expect a
most prosperous year.
Some promotions by special exami-
nations will probably be made soon
from the 5th to 9th grade and from
9th to 9TH, increasing the attendance
IN the principals room.
At present the grades are arranged
as follows: Principal, F. N. Smith,
9TH 9Th and 9th grades; Miss Johnston,
5th and 9th grades; Miss Draham, 3rd
and 4th grades; Miss Shields, 1st and
End grades.
AT the opening.exercises in the high
er grades, Prof. Smith, gave his pu-
pills short preparatory talk, saying
among other things: 1--WE are met,
you, trust, are here to leare; myself,
both to instruct and learn. One of
the meanest weeks that grows in the
school garden is Sinking. Its root is
lazines.; its fruit, Incidence. That
lesson which you shirk to-day will
have to be learned sometime, or it
Will give you no end of troub1e-and it
will have curious way of cropping
up in the most unexpected places, and
keeping you from the success, which
otherwise should be easily and right
fully yours.
But after all. there is no harder
work than to play all of the time. No
people on earth are so bored as those
who have nothing to do but to amuse
themselves Work and study are ne
cessary to self respect.
''You might better be a plow-horse,
and spend all your days in the furrow,
than an idler-whether boy or girl.
For the plow-horse opens the way to
seed and harvest; while the idler opens
the way 10 nothing but his cwn shame
To know and to do are twin blessings,
possible for us each. One thing is GER
tain however, we are here for work."
Tuesday forenoon Messrs, Kneeland,
Fredson and Covill, of the board, visit
ed the several rooms of the school, and
spoke encouragingly to the older schol-
ars in Miss Johnston's room. The
patrons of the school are asked to visit
as often as possible to encourage the
work.
Prof. Smith comes to us direct from
the University of Minnesota, where he
has been pursuing special course IN
