From these she learned her wild ways.

OF course, all spoiled her. Ponka and
her son Joe groveled in abjecteSt adora-

came within touch of her simply did

her better than anything else, yielded

A FEW
WORDS ABOUT
JOBPRIN7INC

1t used to be that the quality of
Job Printing did not amount to
much, so far as success in business
Was concerned. Any business man
or woman could get along fairly we'll
without it. But we live in another
aud altogether different era.
Today it is necessary for business
people to have neat stationery if they
intend to occupy a prominent place
among their competitors.
When you see a piece of job print
ing crowded and the type jammed
too close together, with dirty-looking
lux and finger marks smeared over
1t, on a low grade of paper, it doesn't
speak well for the firm which uses il.
In fact, you don't have the same
opinion of that place as you have of
the man whose stationery is clearly
printed with good ink on the best
grade of paper.
The quality of stationery reflects
the standing Of ones business. 1t is
therefore duty you owe to yourself
to have good printing.

Tanning Skins.


Many farmers, who sell the skins of
farm animals. would be glad to use
them, if they knew how to make them
disable. The following directions have
been sent in. as reliable:
Take one half pound of alum, one
pound of saltpetre, five pounds CON-
mon salt, two ounces corrosive subli-
mate and two gallons of water. Put
it in vessel that can be covered, so
that no animal can drink it. If there
is any flesh on the hides, lay them on
board, flesh side up, and rub with a
brick or a dull knife, until it is re-
moved. After all the ingredients are
/ dissolved, put the pelts into the YES
sci of liquid, and allow them to remain
two or three weeks. Large skins will
require more liquid. as they must be
covered all the time. but make it in
the above proportions. When they are
taken out, rub and work them until
they are dry, when they will be very
soft and pliable.

Training for Teachers.

Knoxville, Tenn. Jan. 6-One of
the most advanced steps taken in the
progress of Southern education is the
establishment of "a department of edu-
cation in the University of Tenn assee.
The department opened today, 1t is
modelled largely on the Teacher S Col
lege of Columbia University and is
the outcome OF desire to meet the
growing demand in the south for an
advanced and extensive school for the
professional training of teachers. The
department is to include not only
courses in modern pedagogy and psy-
chology, but also instruction in the
latest methods of teaching English
history, the physical sciences, nature
study, manual training, domestic
science and other special subjects.
