EDUCATIONAL
 DEPARTMENT.
Spelling.

Spelling is one the most difficult as we'll as one of the most import ant studies in the common school course. We are too apt to drop in- to some of the old ruts in teaching spelling.
 If any teacher who has made . close study of the subject, will give me brief outline of his or her method, they may be the means of belping a brother teacher te make his work more efficient. I can get along with the old oral and written methods but I would like very we'll to find plan that will enable my pupils to get correct idea of ev- cry word as fast as they learn how to spell the words. In other words when the pupil learns any word I wish him or her to add that word to his available vocabulary.
 Give me a method that will help accomplish this and you shall have thankful admirer so long as shall remain in this earthly realm.
 How many of your advanced pu- pils can correct the spelling in the following poem, which I copied from the Educational Independent
 A Misspelled Tail.
 A little buoy said: ''Mother, deer
 May eye go out too playS The son is bright, the heir is clear.
 Owe! mother, don't say neigh" ''Go fourth. my sum-" the mother
 said:
 His ant said: "Take ewer slay, Your gneiss knew sled, awl painted
 read,
 But dew not ewer weigh" "Ah, knowr he cried, and sought
 the street,
 With hart so full of glee- The weather changed and snow and
 sleet
 And reign fell fierce and free. Threw snowdrifts grate, threw
 watry pool,
 He Hue with might and mane-- Said be: Though l wood walk Ty Eye am knot write, 'tis plane. "Ide like to meat some kindly sole, For hear gnu dangers weight, And yonder stairs a treacherous
 whole.
 To sloe has boon my gate. "A peace of bred, a gneiss hot stake, Eyed chew, if I were home This cruel fate my hart will brake, I love knot thus to Rome. '.I. m weak and pail; I mist my rode" But hear a cart came passed- He and hIs sled were safely toad Back to his home at4ast.

THE PRINTERS BURDEN.
A Young Teacher

Take up the printers burden. You hardy sons of toll, Who owe him on subscription For burning midnight oil. Remem Der how he waited,
 When times were hard as rocks, For Bryan and free silver,
 And Jerry Simpsons socks. Take up the printers burden. He knows not selfish greed, In every blessed issue
 He works for things you need; The towns prosperity he shows Your farm land is the best These things he tells the people In north, south, east and west Take up the printers burden, And pay the debt you owe, And when your mortal remnant Has left this world below, Your friends can read your title, To mansions in the skies The printer knows 'tis charity To whitewash all your lies Take up the printers burden, And make things what they seem When oft in silent sleeping, The people-in his dream Pay cash for every item,
 Subscription in advance, And he goes every Sunday, Without patches on his pants Take up the printers burden, All who are in arrears, And generations yet unborn Will bless you all the years; Times are very much better, Since Mckinley won the day, Butyou ought to pay the printss, Cause the devil wants his pay.
