the Red sea, and between the TWEEN

Hotels And Boarding Houses Of
Colorado.

The eastern man who has never
been to Colorado can form no idea of
the size and luxury Of its principal
telS-barticularly those at Denver,
Colorado Springs, Manltou and Glen

They are palaceS-Splendidly furn-
ished, comfortable, conveniently ar
ranged, and managed with the one
idea of Satisfying guests. If Colorado
had no other attractions than its
hotels, it would be worth visiting,
But it has other charlottesville
pureSt air, the bluest sky, and the
most brilliant sunshine in the world.
A hundred thousand people go there
every summer Not all of them stay
at high priced hotels. BY far the

Educational Notes.

Every teacher owes it to herself to
set apart some time each day for rec
reation. A walk Of mile or two each
morning and evening is good exercise.
1t will be an advantage to the teacher
if her boarding place is at least mile
from the school house. The morning
walk in the fresh air will so invigorate
the teacher that she will be better fitted
to enter upon the duties of the day and
her work will be much easier and light
er.
Education is better safeguard Of
liberty than standing army.-Edward
Everett.
How priceless is a liberal education,
in itself what rich endowment! Its
value can not be impaired or destroyed
but is increased with age. No one but
its rightful owner can profit by its use
or enjoy its rewards. He alone can ex-
hibit its worth. 1t can not be inherited
or purchased. 1t can only be acquired
by individual effort. 1t must be Sc
cured by sacrifice and labor, but it is
as free as the air we breath. MCKINLEY.
In order to raise the great mass of
people to higher plane of intelligence,
to lessen crime, and lessen the cost of
crime, to discourage vagrancy and fit all
her people for practical useful life and
to better prepare her citizens for the re-
possibilities Of government, Kansas de-
mands that every boy and girl, of sound
mind and good bodily health, be sent
to school during the entire session each
year from the time they are eight years
old until they have reached fifteen.
This law is similar to laws now in force
in other states. Wherever this law has
been tried it has been successful and
has become popular. People realize
such law is intended to reach those
children who are most in need of an
education. 1t is hoped that all parents
will fully acquaint themselves with the
law and comply with it to such an ex-
tent that it will not be necessary to
call upon the truant officers to enforce
