TRIBUTE TO TEACHERS.

In recent address the president OF
one Of the Maryland county school
boards paid warm tribute to the eff
cheney OF the teachers Of that county,
and commented upon the zeal they dis
played in their work, despite the fact Of
a ow average salary--about $500. There
are few avocations which require such
devotion for small compensation as thai
Of the school teacher, and yet the pro-
fe sion Of esching is taken up by many
ycang people with college training. In
respect 10 the character Of its teachers,
Maryland compares favorablY with any
other state in the Union. II contains
within its confines several colleges which
re, slve state aid upon the basis Of schol-
ars hips, which require that the beneficial
~ shall teach after graduation some
in the state. II has also two first rate
normal schools devoted TO the work of
trsining teachers So that the low rate
Of pay prevailing is not TO be accounted
for by low grade of service rendered.
TIE fact is that the state system Of edu-
cation still had about il the character of
the experimental period Of educational
expedients, rather than educational poll
cies. But aside from the defects in the
system, the counties themselves are lack
ing in adequate appreciation of the work
of the faithful self.denying teacher.
Parents who arc ready with complaints
are not always responsive to taxation
for the support of the schools, and yet
there is no public outlay that could be
made comparable in the value of its re-
turns. No better testimony could be de-
sired for the quality of work done in
Maryland's county schools than the Sc
lection of one Of its counties by the con-
missioner of education to furnish the
county school exhibit for the Eastern
states.

No one who is acquainted with its good
qualities can be surprised at the great
popularity of Chamberlain's Cough Re-
medy. 1t not only cures colds and grip
effectually and permanently. but prevents
these diseases from resulting in pneu-
monia 1t is also a certain cure for Group.
Whooping cough is not dangerous when
this remedy is given. 1t contains no
opium or other harmful substance and
may be given as confidently to a baby as
to an adult 1t is also pleasant to take.
When all of these facts are taken into
consideration it is not surprising that
people in foreign lands, as well as at
home. esteem this remedy very highly
and very few are willing 10 take any
other after having once used it. For
