ond marriage There were roora ot,;1- dren. in this home than the teacher had in her school, and while the .pa-s rents were generally in harmony. there was no general agreement among the three sets of children. The teacher was forced to resort to the schooIhol1sa for privacy in her studies.
 A New England teacher reports her experience. She went to the comnun- fty where she was too teach one week before school was to open. She intend ed to spend one day in arranging for a boarding place; she spent the week. however. The community had many. good homes, any of which were will ing to keep her for one night but non or which wanted the teacher as a reg uiar boarder By the end of the week. she had become personally acquainted with every family in the community but had not secured a boarding place. She returned to her home and noti- hed the chairman of the school board that she would report for duty as soon as word was received from him that a boarding place was arranged for Word came promptly. The teacher was unusually successful as a teacher, undoubtedly due in part to the fact that. she had become personally ac- quafnted with all of her school npa4 trops before school opened.
 In many instances in all sections of
 
 A district where some woman fof the gossipfng type wants to board fne teacher for the sake of the informa- tion concerning the children which a sharp woman of this type is apt to get from her. No prudent teacher will want to live under such conditions
 The question of the rural teacher,s boarding place is a serious one and deserves serious considerations. The best home in the district should throw it's door wide open and bid the teachs CT welcome. The best home is none too good for the teacher whose heart and soul is in her work In many states now there are county superin- tendents who make it as much a part of their work to find the teacher a 1t boarding place as to find the teacher for the school. Many good patrons V il refuse an application for board from the teacher herself. who would con- slider it a signal honor to be dipIo- matica1ly solicited by the county su- perintendent in behalf of the teacher Either the best homes must be opened as boarding places or cottages must be built at a. public expense for homes for the teachers.

RURAL SCHOOL LETTER.
The Preachers Boarding Place.

At rural conferences in several states this summer the teacher Iboarddng place was discussed as one of the most perp1exing of rural school problems. Too often the rural teach CT finds it >alT.2ost impossible to secure fit boarding accommodations We'll qualified teachers will not stay in a place where boarding conditions are poor; they will stay only until they have attained the teaching experience required to qualify them for village or city school work. As a rule, com. munities which provide congenial liv- ing conditions secure and hold good must take the poorer teachers, with the result that their schools are in-
 efficient and ineffective and that the
 children do not acquire the interest In
 the school work that they should and
 might. At this time of the year.
 therefore, county superintendents should set the machinery in motion to
 see that the best home in their dis
 trict is obtained for a boarding place
 for the teacher. In order to do her best
 work and to make the school the vital factor in the community that it should
 be, the teacher must live in the school
 district and not journey back and
 forth from the neighboring town or
 city either daily on Monday morn
 ing to return to the city again on Fri
 day afternoon.
 Tn a. certain district in one of the states of the middle West, the teach
 CT engaged was unable to find a single
 family that would furnish her with board and room. She resigned and contracted for a school in a neighbor- ing district where she easily secured a good boarNding place. The school trustees in the district where she re-. signed preferred charges against her and asked the county superintendent to- revoke her certificates. His de- cision, however, was in favor of the teacher and he notified the board that another teacher would not be sent to their district until the best home was opened to her as a boarding place.
 In a certain district in one of the northwestern States the teacher writes in regard to her boarding place that she had no privacy. She had her meals at the same table with the fath- CT and mother and eight children in the family. and spent the evening pre- pairing herself for her next days work I in the common living room. She did
 not object particularly to this. but add

ANTHONY ITALIA, FAMOUS EXPLORER. HAD THRILL
 ING TIME IN BRAZIL

Anthony Ffala, who was leader of one of second ziegler polar expedi- ton and who was in charge of one of the Roosevelt expeditions in Bra gil, is a native of Jersey City and will round out his forty-ffth year today. Tn his youth. MT. Fiala was a nthographer, and later spent several years, as assistant in physical and chemical laboratory. In 1890 he be- came newspaper cartoonist. and he might have won fame in that line if he had not abandoned it to take up the study of photo-engraving. For some time he was in charge of the photo engraving and art department of the Brooklyn Eagle. At the out break of the war with Spain he en- listed as a trooper in volunteer cavaI- ry, and also acted as war. correspon-y dent for the Brooklyn Eagle. In 1901 1 he Joined the Baldwin-ziegler polar expedition as photographer, and when ziegier, the baking powder king fitted out second expedition in 1908, Fiala was placed in charge of it.
 MT. FTala went to Brazil with the Roosevelt expedition but, after trav- cling with the Colonel about five weeks. he struck out at the head of a separate party. and had many thrill ing experiences in the jungle.
 '.At. times we were all forced to l dismount from our horses and mules,'' he said. and. cut our way with knives through the dense growth. The rainy season was on, too. and sometimes we would travel for. two days at a time without finding a spot dry enough to pitch camp. At Matta Crosse we all went hunting. In one d party which went for tiger cats were Col, Roosevelt, Kermit, a Brazilian colonel and several natives Kermit.

The party started out early in the morning and with nothing but coffee in their. stomachs they pushed their way all day through swamps filled with crocodiIes and snakes in
 pursuit of tiger eat they had scar ed up.
 'eThe Brazilians did the best they could. and with the negro boys kept up for several hours. Bit the pace } set by the Colonel and Kermit was too much for them. Late at night a : boy returned to the camp and said , that the colonel and Kermit were n about two miles off in the jungle K when they finally did come out their
 clothing was torn to shreds and their arms and legs were bleeding. But g they were carrying the guns and
 shoes of the Brazinans. The latter had quit and were lying down in .

The Department recommends the following method of putting up peaches and apples with out any sugar for those who find their local sugar prices prohibitfve for can ming.
 Canning Peaches Without Sugar. If the price of sugar is prohibitive one may can peaches So that they will instead of syrup. The following re- cipe may be used:
 Remove skins from peaches by i'm : mersing in boiling water for about one minute and then dipping in cold wa ter. Place whole peaches ia glass jars or tins and ill jars with hot water. Place rubber and top in place and sterilize for l 5 minutes in hot-water- bath outfits. 12 minutes in water-seal, o minutes at five pounds steam pres sure or five minutes at 10 pounds steam pressure.
 ''Of course the peaches when re- moved from the jar will not taste so sweet as those canned in syrup. How ever, if sweetening is desired 1t may be added when the fruit is to be eaten.
 This same method is good for can ming with. syrups containing varying amounts of sugar. A very thin syrup maybe used if the housewife does not wish to dispense entirely with ths su-
