Heaven Or Alqiers

A celebrated Anglican divine

After a careful examination,
Sir Frederick pronounced lis
verdict and added: "Your
lordship must go to Algiers or
some winter resort on the Ri:
viera."
Impossible" replied the BIZ
shop; "quite impossible. have
too much work to get through.
E'Well," said the doctor, syou
must make your choice. It's
either Algiers or heaven.
"Dear me!v exclaimed the
bishop with a sigh; "then / sup

Office Of Responsibility.

Office Of Responsibility.
That the members of the board
'of education should have been
warranted in re-electing j. H.
Beveridge to the Superintend-
ancy Of the city schools for the
ensuing year, calls for congra-
tulations to all the residents of
the school district. That Mr..
Beveridge is supervising the
schools in a manner that is ac-
ceptable to the people is indie
ated by the fact that few, if
any, complaints have been
heard from any quarter during
the time he has had charge.
The action of the board in in
creasing the salary of the sup
erintendent from $1,000 to So,
400 will also be generally appr-
owed. The report of the supe-
rintendent shows that there is
at present a total enrollement
in the schools of the independ-
ent school districts of 1864 pu-
pills, and the responsibility dew
diving upon one who has gener-
al charge of the education of
that number of boys and girls
is we'll worth the salary attac-
he'd to the office. 1t is not gen.
orally realized that the school
superintendent receives the
highest salary Of any public
officer in the city or in the ind
ependent school district, and
that it costs, in round numbers,
twice as much to keep the
schools running nine months Of
the year as it does to run the
affairs of the city for an entire
year, excluding the expense
for light and water annually
incurred by the city.
At the head of this organization
involving an annual expense to
the district approximating $3.50,
600, is the superindent of
schools. He must, therefore,
be entirely competent to fulfill
the duties of his position, and
when such a superintendent
has been secured, he is entitled
to a proper compensation for
his work. -Nonpareil.
We often wonder how any person can
be persuaded into taking anything but
Foley's Honey and Tar for coughs,
colds and lung trouble. Do not be.
fooled into accepting own make" or
other substitutes. The genuine con-
tains no harmful drugs and is in a vel
low package. r. W. Harvey je30
