SUCCESS.

By John ''Trotwood" Moore. Iris the coward who quits to misfortune; Iris the knave who changes each day; Iris the fool who wins half the battle.
 Then throws all his chances away. There is little in life but labor.
 And tomorrow may find that dream. Success is the bride of Endeavor.
 And Luck but meteors gleam. The time to succeed is when others,
 Discouraged. show traces of tire; The battle is fought in the home stretch,
 And won 'twixt the flag and the wire.

PAY the Teachers.

The following from the Barre Times
is full of.good horse sense. "The fl
ing of petition in bankruptcy by a
Vermont school teacher the other day
brings out the information that this
was the first petition filed by a peda-
gogue. 1t is quite remarkable that
school teachers in the small towns,
who are struggling along on a mere
pittance, are not ottener found in the
list of those to take advantage of the
bankruptcy law. The fact that there
are not more is an eloquent tribute
to the frugality of Vermont school
teachers. For were they not frugal
in their habits of life it would scarcely
be possible for them to exist on the
salaries they are paid in return for
the most important work that they
are doing, the training of the young.
And, too, there are many schools
throughout the state that are going
a-begging tor teachers simply for the
fact that the stipend attached to the
particular districts is not large
enough to keep body and soul to-
gether in a decent manner. If we do
not want more of our teachers in the
lists of bankrupts and more of our
schools teecherless we should raise
the salaries to living basis"

The Monitors.

The warcraft known as "moni-
tors which were serviceable during
the civil war, were long ago super
seeded by sea fighting vessels more
formidable although during the war
with Spain a number of them were
fitted for coast defense. The first
and most famous of the type was
the Monitor" which fought the en-
gagement with the Merrimac.
A sale at auction of five ofthe "sin-
gle-turreted monitors" at Washing
ton Thursday virtually marks the
extinction of the large feet of fight
ing machines of this class. They are
the Jason, Canonicus, Nahant, Lee
high and Montauk, all now lying at
the League Island Navy Yard Phila-
delphia. All saw service during the
rebellion, and bear marks of shot
and shell.
The Montauk and Nahant were
among the monitors sent to Charles
ton under command of Rear-A Admiral
Dupont in 1868, when an attempt
was made to capture Fort Sumtr
by naval attack exclusively.
