Teachers should exercise patience
and care in the treatment of dull pu-
pills The bright child gets along rap
idly, but the slow pupil needs atten-
tion. help, care and encouragement.
And it is the progress of the dull pu-
pill that really measures the skill and
efficiency of the teacher.
Dizziness is not = mask for great
ness; but ponderous objects move
slowly, and the patient plodder that
seemingly makes little progress is
often the raw material out of which
fame forges her shafts. Duilness gen.,
orally. or along some special line.
may help to develop that aptitude for
work. that infinite capacity for effort
and for taking pains that lies at the
foundation of great achievement. The
bud contains the nucleus of the ripen-
ed fruit but it does not always reveal
It. Napoleon and Wellington were
dull boys. yet one conquered Europe
to be in turn conquered by the other.
Burns and Scott were regarded almost
as ounces in school, yet they are their
nations representative leaders in lit
erature. Isaac Newton and Dean
Swift were dullards, yet fame laid on
the brow of each an immortal wreath.
Grant generally stood near the foot OF
his class and Beecher at it, yet zach in
mature manhood stood FIRST in his
chosen field. Isaac Barrows was the
one stupid child in family of bril-
liant children. His talented father,
somewhat Inundated. at the denseness
of his sons mind, is said to have re-
marked, that if it was the will of God
to remove any of his children, he
hoped Isaac would be she one. Yet
his fame as theologian and mathema-
tician are world wide. And when he
resigned the chair of mathematics in
Trinity college, no man in all England
was considered qualified to fill his
place, save the great Newton whom
he had taught
Goldsmith's teacher .-;d he was
4impenetrably stupid" Dr.. Chalmers,
the great Scotch preacher, was ex-
PEELED from Trinity as blockhead.
John Wesley's mother in teaching him
had to tell him twenty times, because,
as she said, Had l told dim nineteen
times all my labor would have been
wasted" Burke was a Ounce and
Luther was "flogged fifteen times in
one afternoon" Chatterton tried for
year and half to learn to read
and was then sent home. Byron,
Shakespeare, Linnaesus, George
Stephenson, John Howard, "Stone-
wall" Jackson and Patrick Henry be-
long to the same class.

A MEAL MAKER, COB SMAsHER
A New GriSt Hill Installed near Eu-
banks Shop.
mr.. WILL H. WILSON, ENGINEER

Some time ago we ann ounctd that
w. H. Wilson would put in corn mill
and crusher, deriving power from a
a gasoline engine. Wen take pleas
ure in stating that the plant has been
installed and you can get your corn
made into meal while your horse is
hitched to the fence. The machinery
was all put into position last week and
the first corn mashed Saturday. Mr..
Wilson is located on the branch, near
Eubanks shop, and is convenient for all
who wish to patronize him. His power
is derived from a six horse Fairbank &
Morse gasoline engine that works to
perfection. He is not only prepared to
make meal, but has an uD-to-date crush
er to prepare feed for stock.
We can not see why mill of this
kind should not be kept busy all the
time, and it is freely predicted that it
will meet with most liberal patron
age. Mr.. Wilson has had several years
experience in a mill and is therefore
thoroughly prepared to give the best
results.

Lively Business.

The Produce firm of Grinstead & Co
located on Happy Street this city, un-
der the management of Claude Hobson
has been doing thrifty business for
the last few days in the poltury and
egg line. Last Friday morning ship
ment of $3.50 dozen eggs and $500
pounds of poultry was started for the
larger markets. This firm ships direct
to New York. The above is about an
average weekly shipment for this sea-
son of the year, but within very short
time the trade will pick up until it doub-
les in value. AS little as the people
think about the poultry business, yet it
is one of thegreat money producers of
this section and beyond doubt brings
in more money than any other product
that goes on our market.

LIVELY T|LTS
IN COURT TODAY

when the hearing Of the case against
Health Commissioner Stewart was re-
sumed before Justice Of the Peace Dana
7. Smith at 1890 today, the proceedings
were enlivened by several little TITS.
first between the attorney for the state
and the defendants representative, and
secondly between Mr. DAILY and the
court,
The latter clash came during Mr..
Days argument, when he accused the
court Of taking up his CIR. Daly's)
time.
Dr., w. 4. Stewart was cross-exam-
ined by Asst. County Atty, Willard
Hanson The witness said that the class
OF garbage deposited BY the city was
entirely different from that dumped by
private individuals. But Il was brought
out by answers 20 the prosecutors
questions that the difference was more
In the quantity Of the Objectionable
matter than In the quality. The bones
deposited by the city teamsters were
smaller. the watermelon rinds fewer In
number, etc, etc.
Af WINES ANA AAlfA AfNAtllfl All4l TIC
city transfers covered up the refuse
dumped by hotel and restaurant teams.
yet the witness believed the stencil
was occasioned by the latter drivers
and not by the employees Of the city.
II was brought out In the cross-ex-
animation that the city had about nine
teams, each hauling two loads a day
while the most strenuous efforts on the
part OF the health commissioner failed
10 apprehend violations IN the persons
Of private individuals
The court granted each side 20 min
utes for argument. Mr.. Hanson speak
ing for the prosecution, while Messrs.
Dlninny and DAILY divided the time al.
loted 20 them.
The chief contention Of Mr.. DAILY was
that the assistant county attorney had
acted IN the premises outside his jur.
isdiction
Mr Diniuny endeavored TO show that
the stencil complained Of arose from
the few loads Of garbage put I'm the
dump By individuals rather than by
the many loads deposited by the city
teamsters.
The court briefly instructed the Jury
and the case was dismissed az l2.i5.
