1t Was a Frog.

A large frog was removed from
a woman's stomach in St. CathedraPs
Hospital in Williamsburg the other
day. The woman is Mrs. Charles
Burtis of Hopewell junction, near
Matteawan, n. Y.
She had been suffering from a.
trouble which bafled her physicians
for some time. 1t was finally decid-
ed that an operation for appendicitis
would be advisable and she was taken
to the Williamsburg hospital.
A Fishkill, N. Y, doctor per-
formed the operation, which reveal
e9 that she was not suffering from
Appendicitis. But the doctors did
discover and remove from her
stomach live frog, said to have
been five inches long. 1t is sup
posed that she swallowed the frog,
when it was very small, while she
was drinking water.
1t was said at the hospital last
night that Mrs. Bnrtis had already
returned to her home AID Eai re-
covered entirely from the i'll effects
of her unpleasant experience.-New

daughter came out. Ny friend
heard my crutches fall to the ground

never regretted the part I took in the

From this life of tronble and toll.

WHAT OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS NEED.

But there is one more word. We
have only made a beginning. The
first war is won. Twenty years of
glorious achievement lie ahead, of
which the progress of these last ten
years is only earnest and inspiration.
Listen:
First. Our school-houses are miser-
able and inadequate.
Second. Our teachers are poorly
paid.
Third. Our system of supervision
is weak in the extreme.
Fourth. The attendance is sadly
below the mark.
Fifth. Local taxation must bring
the terms to six or eight monthe.
The task before the people of North
Carolina. is first to build large and
better. school-houses. Two years ago
we implored the General Assembly to
save the swampland funds for this
purpose. It was the first call for
better school-houses. This fund
amounts to 100000. We believe the
time has come when the General As
sembly should be called upon to add
100000 to this fund and to offer to
meet any school district halfway in
building a $1,000 school-house.
This must come before you increase
attendance; for the houses are pain
fully crowded now. And therefore,
it must come before a compulsory
law.
This must come before you can get
local taxation adopted. For pride in
the schools is essential to that. And
besides, people will have no impulse
to run a school in a shanty in the
winter. On the other hand, if a bet
ter school-house is offered as an in
