MIR. DULANY'S JOB.

The records at Washington show that William B.
Dulany is employee of the auditor of the navy He is
carried on the pay roll at salary of 1900 per year.
He does not audit the navy much, however, and his
stipend is greatly out of proportion to his contribution
to our standing power.
However, the president is commander in chief of the
army and navy, and Mr. Dulany's job may as we'll be
charged to the the other. The fact is, however,
that he naval matters than to shave the
president every day just before luncheon.
Carping critics may think that president drawing
the fact is that better afford to pay Mr. Duany
$1,000 year than to have the president shave himself
or be shaved by barber less skIful than Mr. Dulany
Mr.. Roosevelt is, perhaps, harder to shave than
precious and he transacts business with both lips and
jaws while he is shaving. Those who have Mr. Roose
welt talk know that all his features in active, not to
say violent, motion all the time. Since the Timan cpl
sode up and the senate is going after him for tear
ing down the old B. T. O. rat garage, and the house is
abng his secret service and the senate is ask
ing about his letting the steel trust buy that opposition
his features vibrae and oscate and comfort
more violently than erswhe the case, if possible
Yet Mr.. Duany, as born to rule the storm, scrapes
away calmly, never cuts the ROosevetan lips,
breaks his the Roosevetan teeth and makes it
possible for the president every second of the shaw
ing period. 1t is considered great thing for news
paper man in Washington to be accorded the shaving
time and enterprises of great pith and moment for
warded squelched by words shot forth through Mr.
Duany lather
Whatever account he is paid from, Mr.. Dulany earns
his money. We pay Mr. Roosevelt at the rate Of $14
hour for his days work Mr. Dulany this great
nation half hour s. worth of this time every day
He does not cut the executive counenance and he does
not talk about what he hears Perhaps this why he is
rated auditor. 'Audtor' is from ''audio'' which
''to hear Mr. Dulany hears whole lot but he
never gives anything out He good auditor Let him
continue to audit the presidential countenance receiving
ST. 500 for saving the people $4,000 worth of time.
Next to Mr. Jack johnson, Mr. Duany may be regarded
as the most noted colored in the world. President
Simon OF Haiti is not even an also-ran.

SCHOOL TEACHERS PAY.

School teachers salaries being increased But the
movement is not violent. Let nobody throw his hat in
the air and cry hurrah-just yet.
The school teacher is still the poorest paid server of
the public
Dr. Elmer Ellsworth Brown, United States commits
soner of education has made report showing that the
average monthly wages of teachers has increased
from 1868 in 1900 to $500 in 1907 and the average
monthly wages of teachers has increased from
1898 to $4367.
1t is gratifying sign. But it is deplorable reflection
upon the of justice Of the people of this country
particularly when is remembered that the larger num-
Der of teachers paid only during the months when
they employed, and receive nothing whatever during
vacation
If the annual incomes of teachers were given instead
of monthly salaries, the figures would be all the more
significant.
There is profession occupation so underpaid as
that of school teachers And there no profession or
occupation that ought to be better paid.
The average cook or housemaid gets larger compen-
ing that they provided with bed and board.
Not long committee of the State Teachers associ
alton OF Indiana reported that 135 teachers in that
state received less than $500 year, and that the annual
average salary $4,000. The average salary of the
high school teacher $684S1-about the same pay as
that OF the street cleaners in Indianapolis.
No work requires better character and training than
that of teaching No work better for good citizen
ship and social progress.
No work deserves better pay. But somehow or other
we slow to realize this ideal The gradual increase
though small, is gratifying.

DOCTOR TAKES HIS OWN REMEDY

theory is not new, Metchnikoff ad-

But Metchnikoff had never seen

attempted it.
Strange as all this is, it Is

Young Kirkwood had achieved
just three lines of mis- blank verse
tragedy, "Analucia," when he
stalled. Analucia-the proud,
sternly enunciating Analucia, who
was to startle the critics and cause
staid business men to stand in line
for hours in the hope of obtaining
something in the first 10 rows six
weeks ahead-had obstinately re-

against the red brown head Of a
lady-for the windows were very
near together.
Pardon" stammered Mr..
Kirkwood.
Pardon" stammered the
girl.
AS the young man drew back,
red and illustrated, he saw that the
girl shook with laughter. Then in
spiration struck him good and hard.
Talk about your popular
songs" he murmured. Did you
ever in your life?'
He pulled the table to the win
dow and wrote rapidly on the first
scraps of paper his hand found. On
corner of the table the lady Ana
lucia still sulked in ancient unap-
proachableness, and KirkwOod
Tipped her off upon the floor. He
was penciling, in perfect rhythm,
in delicious sentiment, in the
quaint quaintest humor, the words
of a song-a song destined possibly
to be less popular than the red
headed girls doggerel ditty, but a
song far, far better. 1t was about
saucy, red haired lady and the
cheer and glee she brought when
she peeped from her window in
negligee. Ae he wrote he looked
out of the window from time to
time, and he noticed on each occa-
sion that the girl was watching
him. She appeared to study him
unconsciously and she was per-
forming some motion with her
hands, which he was unable to
make out.
When he had written two STAN
zas and chorus, Kirkwood
stepped to the piano. He had the
thing all clear in his mind and the
melody came spontaneously. 1t
was a catchy, engaging little air,
and, as he played, he sang the
words in his good tenor voice.
When he finished, he raced to the
window. The girl was still there.
"Hey!" called young Kirkwood,
excitedly. whats your name?"
"Well'-said the girl, bit en-
barrassed.
Il beg your pardon" he ex-
planned. Il don't want to report
