Garland's Select 300 Pound
Professor Garland has opened a select school
| In this village.
Uncle Jim, the Appleton Press relative,
says that there is something the matter
with Teacher. She used to stand next to
| the preacher when Uncle was young. Her
word was law and she was the final court
Of appeal. To-day her first ambition is
popularity. Uncle also objects to her
masculine following. In his own sturdy
language he says:
| The bouquet of Yucatan sports which she at.
taches to her suite entering social circles
lays her open to sassy, familiar criticism at re-
cess. Outlines the dogsness Of her rags appeal
to the humor Of the children and they don't
hesitate to give her the horse laugh. I don't
see how kid learn anything from a skittish
thing with giddy hose and six diamond rings
on each finger.
| Uncle Jim then tries to put his finger
on the cause Of the trouble. He says it
is not the fault Of the methods of teach
ing nor of the books, neither is it the
fault Of the normal schools, for they are
| the best on earth. Uncle finally decides
that it must be the fault Of the janitor.
But perhaps there isn't any fault, any,
way. Possibly Uncle Jim is looking
Teacher with the too critical eye of age.
Teacher, after school is out, loosens UP
a little and has good time and Uncle
cannot see anything but fiippancy.
With all her faults Teacher is still hui
man. She should be allowed to prance q.
little after the work is done. "A. ]. R.
The wonderful growth of Zion, DR..
Dowie's city which now holds 5000 or
10000 people, is causing other claimants
to similar fame to spring up. The ap-
pearance Of THE Book Of Books" a
rather humorous religious work, is now
agitating the people of Perth Arnboy, n.
is proclaimed in the book as 1.-The supreme
ruler of all things in the heavens and
controller of all things on the earth and
whose will is declared by Charles Wesley
Dean, the instrument" thru whom the
book was published. The announcement
that Miss Hadden, who went to Chicago
last November to direct the construction
of the beautiful city Of IIadden, described
in "The Book of Books has married the
| mstrument' has also served to mystify
Perth Amboy.
Mrs. Dean writes verse, and the
thoughts expressed by her in her will"
with which 1.-The Book of Books opens,
are addressed to the Grand Central Coun-
Gil and to Abraham the son of Terah, and
President of the Government Maintained
by the Spirit People of the Heavens"
Mrs. Dean commands that the earth be
made a better place to live in. She rec
onmends more light and better soil, flow
ers, fruit and other good things. She
wants an even temperature and directs
that there be no more ice and snow. She
also commands that all carnivorous ami
mails either die or quit eating other ami
mails forthwith. She further directs that
all animals on land or in the water and
the fowls and birds of the air educate
| themselves up to a plant diet. Pr -.--
She draws the color line. and wills that
coored persons get into the habit of. not
being born. Her suggestion that to all
white people be given love, Kindness and
, justice to one another is, however, much
: to the point.
After Mrs. Deans will, Abraham gets
, second place, with an Endorsement of the
spirit Government of Love-" There are
one or two filings at the present day
; church and social customs, and a gentle
hint that all who don't at once subscribe
to the bonds of the spirit Government
Of Love" would do well to order asbestos
suits at once. Many nice things are said
about Charles Wesley Dean, the instru-
ment.s Some of the ancients who make
use Of Mrs. Dean are Moses King Solo
mon and King Cyrus, and the reader can
not after reading all they have to say,
repress feeling Of sympathy such as
goes out to a telephone
, King Solomon gets particularly enthu-
siastic over Miss Hadden, the supreme
ruler. saying among other things:
'She will breathe into your nostrils q
new breath of life that will make you
strong as the wind She will make you
all kings, and beside you the great King
David will appear as dolt. She will
make you all queens, and beside you the
great Queen of Sheba will appear as a
nun.
"She has only to speak, and the poles
Of the earth are changed; the and
moon are blotted out, all the stars of
heaven are added to the old sun, the mo-
tons of the world are quickened and
there are 366 days in the year"
