Bouquets for Ped Cloud Teachers.

The following very complimentary
remarks are from Wednesdays Lin.

sary:
"The few men left in the teaching
profession have the honor of holding
practically all the best paying places.
The highest paid position in a system
OF schools is that of city superinten-
dent. The ratio OF men to women in
the 100 best paying superintendencies
in the state is ninety-nine to one. The
only city pay ing Il salary of . 1000 or
more a year that employs a woman to
supervise the schools is that Of Red
Cloud, an enterprising town in the
south central part Of the state.
observation shows that the Red
Cloud schools are in a prosperous con
dition. The fact that a woman Is su.
perintendent does not seem 10 the least
to take from the efficiency OF the
schools. The discipline Is better than
in a majority OF the otter ninety nine
schools. In fact the order in the rooms
and halls Is exceptionally good. The
school is under the best control. The
spirit OF work on the part of pupils
could hardly be better in any school.
The boys remain in school much better
than in o other towns.
MRS. Eva j. Case, the superinteud.
ent, is a graduate Of a college in Yer.
mont and holds q life certificate in
both Nebraska and Vermont. She has
taught with marked success in county
schools, and in the grammer grades of
city schools. She has held the posi-.
ton OF county superintendent for two
terms. This is her second year as SUI.
perintendeut OF Red Cloud schools.
She has the fullest confidence of the
parents and the hearty cooperation of
the teachers and board of education
giving her an opportunity to improve
school conditions rapidly. Her assist.

"Mr. Murphy wanted at the tele-

from widely different parts of the
United States, and each Of whom rec

p. T. Murphey of New York, made
so much haste that he slipped upon
the smooth floor and was helped to q

ankle; at the same time T. s. Murphi
of Philadelphia, disentangled himself
from u mass of newspapers, and
bumped unceremoDiously into the ro-
tund person Of Mr.. Michael Murphay
OF Houston, Texas. These two glared
ferooiously at each other as they
rushed side by side for the phone !;
meanwhile James W. Murphy Of Peo-
ria, Ill, rushed from the cafe and tum-
bled over the excited bell boy, who
had thus far successfully lodged the
various Murphys who had answered

Malaria is disease which weakens
the entire system, and renders it par
ticularly liable to the attacks of other
diseases. All those who live in mala-

not only from malaria, but from the ills
which may follow it, by taking Paine's
Celery Compound, which gives the sys-
TEN strength to throw off, and keep off,
the attacks of disease.
