Frank kept his watch in hand
and before the time had fully ex
pired the door opened and the little
maid Annie Smith appeared
Smiling she said, GOOD evening
Mr.. Brown. / came in to see you
AMI inquire after your mother
Does she like the new girl who
came as left, or would she take
me back again?"
Frank was bewildered; was he
losing his senses? Finally he STAN
mered, 81 think she would like fol
you to come again!' -
"Frank!" in her very own voice
and Annie came quite near, putting
her hand op his shoulder, and look
ing down into his very eyes.

Frank Brown was never happier
than when he introduced his mother
and his wife and said, "Mother,
this is your little hand-maiden,
Annie Smith, come back for life"
And while this little story does
not hint OF temperance or w. G. I.
U., it certainly belongs to the "f''

real wise "Y" girl.

Value Of lntelligent Voting.

There is nothing inherently sa-
cred about dropping slip Of paper
into wooden box. Voting itself is
valueless unless there is definite,
intelligent principle behind it all.
When the citizen fails, through ig-
norance or stupidity or indiffer-
ence, to perceive a real issue in the
contest, it can make no difference in
the ultimate results whether he goes
to the polls or remains AT home.
He will have contributed nothing
but meaningless bit OF paper to
the cause Of popular sovereignty,
and a meaningless slip Of paper
stuffed into ballot box is no more
potent for progress in a democracy
than a meaningless slip Of paper
stuffed into garbage box DE.

The trailing arbutus has only one
very near relative, aud 1t lives in
Japan. This tells to the botanist a
strange story. When North Amer
lea was warmer the parent of both
spread over Northern America and
Asia. With the descent of the ice
cap, in the glacial period, the flow
ers were forced downward, one on
the east coast Of America aud one
the east coast of Asia. They have
been separated just long enough and
under surroundings just different
enough, to have made little differ
ence in their appearance and habit
and yet their common origin is
easily traceable. - April Ladies

"Kick' as 10 Jasper's Streets and
Street Commissioner.

EDITOR CoURIER.-All0w me to
publicly notify ths President OF the
Town Board of Jasper that there is
a culvert broken down southeast OF
the brewery; one crossing stone
over gutter, south west of Mr.. JOS
eph's lot is in such a shape man
IL liable TO tall and break a leg in
broad day light, and there is big
hole washed out nearly in the CEN
ter Of the street, almost big enough
for whole rig 10 fall in, on Eighth
street to the Avenue near the fac
tory. These places IRE in this con
dltlon Tor about two months. /
can't say how many more such
places there are in town, | Just hap
peDed 10 see these, and would ad-
wise the President to get a pair of
specks. Mr.. Judy could fit him up
SO ne could see good sized hole
inside OF 200 yards.
Sometime ago the Board dis
charged the old street commissioner
elected by the people, and installed
the one the people didn't vote for.
The old commissioner did more
work and cleaned more crossings
and better than any other one We
ever had. The Board also made it
appear that he was short in his ac-
counts and requested him to make
his report, and he done SO. They
accepted his report, SO it seems it
was either ignorance or malice that
caused his discharge
1t seems if town has five trus-
tees, and a street commissioner
getting $40 or $50 a month, they
ought at least to keep the crossings
in good shape. There is fully six
months in the year when we havn't
any use.for street commissioner,
as each one Of the trustees could
watch his ward, and if there was
any bad places they could hire a
man by the day to fix them, and
$50 would do fully as much as $3.50
has done the past six months.
About two years ago the town
had to pay damage on account Of
Mr.. Doane's sidewalk, which |
would consider first class to some
we have now, and it seems to me If
the Board at the time had looked
after the interest of the town they
could have saved the cost. Well,
that is past. We will 60 over on
Mill street, you will find piece Of
sidewalk in front of Doc Cluthe's lot
up so high it looks like a speakers )
stand over the walk. Perhaps the
Board expected Prince Henry to
stop off and give the town talk on
it, but he didn't come around he
was afraid if he got on in coming
off he might break his neck.
| also believe its not fair for the
town board to make a poor man
that hasn't got the money, work
out 81 on the streets, while the man
that has the cash only pays $50.
Coming back to the street COM
missioner, ! kindly advise the pres
ldent of the Board, who | believe
was the chief engineer in the case,
the next time, when they make IA
change, to get ct least as good as
the old one, if they can't do better

Helen KclIer's Tribute TO Her Mother.

She is 50 near to NE that it almost
seems indelicate to speak Of her.
We never dream Of comparing our
mother to another; it is enough that
she is our mother-.he being in

would be like attempting to put in
to words the fragrance Of a flower

movement, memory gems, etc, were
very helpful.
The brief talk upon English by Miss
Dickinson, was plea, not for more
methods, but for a clearer under
standing that language is the ex-
preston of thought, and can be
taught best when interest in some
object or subject is so intense as to
demand immediate expression.
In his two addresses, Mr.. Whitaker
gave a sane and scholarly exposition
of the value of the study of history,
together with suggestions with re-
gard to courses ofstudy and methods.
In the lower grades he would make
much use of stories, drawing from
such sources as the Bible, the Had
and the Odyssey, the Aeneid, the Morse
Sagas, the Niebelungen Lied, etc.
Later he would make use of biogra-
ply and still later group the heroes
of history by nationalities. English
history he would introduce in the
grammar grades before the pupils
have finished American history.
The latter he would have completed
in an elementary way below the
high school, but studied in more
intensive way during the senior year
of the high school.
Miss Mowers paper upon litera-
ture was an interesting discussion of
the many ways in which the subject
might be so taught as to give pleas
ure and present high ideas of con-
duct.
Last upon the program came the
round table. Any table, round or
otherwise, presided over by State
Superintendent Ranger, could not
fail to offer refreshment both spicy
and nutritive. Questions previously
assigned were answered by educa-
tors present, such subjects being dis
cussed as vertical writing, how to
cure pupils of lying, how to study
birds and flowers, &c.
The following resolutions were
adopted
WHEREAS, We as teachers have felt
the stimulus of contact with the minds
and methods of our fellow workers !;

RESOLVED, First--That we tender our
sincere thanks to the officers of the
Lamoille Educational Association for

Second-That we express our appre-
citation of the efforts of our instructors
