An Adamless Ball.

One of the freaks of the artistic wo-
men of Berlin is to get up ball every
two years, called ''the women painters
fete." Not a single male is admitted
on this occasion. The ball lasts gener-
ally till about o'clock in the morn-
ing. Although the women lay stress
on refusing admission to men, large
number Of the jewellers don male at
tire, and one of the most striking fea-
lures Of the evening is the exuberant
and frolicsome, not to say boisterous,
fun these female linen" have with
their partners.
During the evening an orchestra Of
women in mems dress clothes perform
ed under the direction of an imitation
of Herr Nikisch, the we'll known con-
ductor. The night passed off merrily,
a1d next day all the ladies who were
there declared emphatically they had
amused themselves diyinely-far better
than If men had been present at the
Observation-Disclosures Times.

To Clean silver

Silver, in daily use may be cleaned
by immersion in strong borax and wa
ter for two OF three hours. The water
should be boiling when the borax and
silver are put in. After it has been
taken out and dried rub it with little
plate powder and polish with cham
OILS. If silver ornaments are not kept
in case, they tarnish very quickly.
To brighten them dip the articles in a
strong solution of ammonia and hot
water. Never rub silver with flannel
or cotton cloth. Plate not in general
use should be wrapped carefully in
tissue paper to exclude light and air,
as these are the two factors that cause
silver to tarnish.

A souIleas satran

The imaginative writer should avoid
a newspaper editor as he (or she)
would wet spot on the pavement or
a chill draft from a window. He is q
harsh, unhappy man, the center Of a
cold wave, and the amenities Of life
are removed from him. He is soul
less satrap, sitter of hope and en-
thusiasm, with one eye on the facts
of the day and the other on his job.

Immunity For the F1ren,es.

Birds do not eat fireflies, and even
bats, which seem to eat everything
else that they can chew or swallow,
never touch a lightning bug. There
must be something distasteful in this
insect to the feathered world, and thus
the species is preserved, for if it We're
not SO lightning bugs would soon be-
come extinct, as the torch they carry
would only serve the purpose Of at
tracing their enemies.
1t may be that the uncanny appear
ance of the insect, giving forth, as it
does, a brilliant flash Of light every
moment or two, deters birds and bats
from attacking it, but If a lightning
bug We're toothsome morsel to q
birds bill any number Of the feathered
world would soon overcome their re-
pugnance to the little living torch and
go hunting for lightning bugs.

America. First Lirhthouse.

The first lighthouse built on this con-
tinent was at st. Augustine, Fla. Its
chief use was as lookout, whence the
Spanish people of the town could see
vessels approaching from Spain or get
notice of the coming Of foes in time to
run away. The tower attracted the at
tention of Francis Drake as he was
sailing along the coast with his feet of
high popped ships on his way home
from pillaging the cities Of the Span
ish main. So he stopped long enough
to loot the town and destroy what he
could not take away.

Suffering ana stammer4ng.

Suffering and stammering are terms
that are COMPOUNDED. They are not
synonymous by any means. Stammer-
ing is an inability to properly enunci-
ate certain elementary speech words;
suffering is vicious utteranee, mani
tested by frequent repetitions Of in
itial or other elementary sounds. Both
are caused by improperly acting mus
cles Of the vocal chords, soft palate,
tongue, cheeks, lips, etc.
Some of these muscles are under
easy control Of the will. Over the mus
cles Of the pharynx, the soft palate
and at the base of the tongue, which
move its root upward and downward,
our power is not SO complete, and this
causes the atfiiction.

THE SCOTT SCHOOL.
Closing Exercises Held May 30

On the both of May the Scott
public school held it's closing eN-
ercises. Under the able direc
ton of Miss Edith Mayer, this
school has had a most successful
term. The exercises consisted
of recitatiOns, dialogues and
class songs. The children
played their parts in a manner
which showed results of
careful training and intelligent
instruction. Miss Mayer re-
warded the little folks with ice
cream and cake.
The Gazette is pleased to note
the interest which the teachers
throughout the parish are show
ing in their work. Without the
active cooperation of the pri-
mary schools located in the diff
ferent wards the movement in
this parish for improved educa-
tiOnal facilities could be only
meaSurably successful. They
are the pillars of the educational
structure. Though the results
of their labor are not wired to
the metropolitan papers and
they have no graduates with
classical gowns and caps to test
the skill of the engravers and to
ornament the front page of the
! large daily, quietly and without
! OStentatiOn they are doing a
great work in the crusade
against ignorance. Their posi-
ton in the educational system is
similar to that of the old pioneers
who cleared the forests and
paved the way for higher civ
ilizatiOn. Their mission is /,
most important one and there is
not a class of workers who
should receive more encourage
ment from the friends of popular
education.

PILETTE IN LINE
Closing Exercises 0f PilettS
SshOOl-Larse Attendance.


Pilette school We're held last !
Friday in Pilette Hall. Mr.. Ale ,
man and Mr. J. O. RrousSard +!
delivered short talks in French
to the people assembled. Mr..
Alleman dwelt upon the absolute
necessity for Il longer term. He
said that a term of seven or eight
months. giving the children of
the parish 40 to 100 days of ac-
tual school work was not Sutfi-
cient when We took into cOnSl-
Iteration the fact that there ar"
800 days in the year. He made
Il plea for at least 200 days of
school OF a term of ten scholastic
months and said that the people
should not rest satisfied with
less. and that it was in the power
of the people alone to secure the
longer term. He said the Police
Jury. who werc the direct repre-
SentativeS of the people. had
done their duty last year and
that he had full confidence in the
men composing the body and
that they could be counted ON to
do their duty again. The school
revenues were derived from
three sources. the State. the
parish and the rent of school
lands The parish schools could
be run ten months for $4,000.
Next year tn" Stat" appOrtlon-
ment would probably amount to
$1,000 the revenue from school
lands. S2OOO:with an appropriation
of $4,000 from the Police jury and
some aid from the Town Council
the Schnul Board could run the
schools ten months. To reach
that goal he asked the assistance
of every citizen of the parish.
Mr.. J. @. BrOuSSard then fol
lowed with short practical talk
on the, necessity for education.
He said in part:
I am delighted to see this
large assembly OF children
thirStin@ for Knowledge. 1t is
always q pleasure to a friend OF
education to witness Il sight of
this kind.
The educ;ition of the children
of the land is the most sacred
duty Of those entrusted with the
government of a parish or of a
State. and the time has come
when we can not afford to neglect
respect.
1T is the custom of all
Christian people to pour baptiS-
NAL waters on infants to cleanse
them from the stain of sin. In
like manner education should be
poured on our children to cleanse
them from the blight of iGnn-
rance.
All migrants who com" to
this parish arc educated. and un-
less We educate our children,
these more intelligent strangers
will push US aside and become
Ilit owners Oh tilt' idlltl dlltt 'lN'
rulers of the country. On the
other hand. if W" give our
children Il fair chance. if we
build up our public school SNS-
tenn to that standard of efficiency
enjoyed by the NOR" progressive
communities of the State. our
children will be able to hold their
own under any circumstance and
at any time. Conditions are
changing from year to year.
Conditions have materially
changed within the past twenty
tive years. The demand of tie
hour is education and we must
furnish it to our children at
whatever cost.
