Teach Music at Normal.

Students at the Milwaukee state nor
NAL school are now offered the advan-
tages of a school of music. 1t has
been added to the special departments,
and Otto w. Miessner, formerly super
visor of public school music at Oak
Park, Ill, is the director. The regis
tration for the first term of this year
was nearly one hundred. This is the
only music department of it's kind now
connected with the normal schools of
the state. A large normal school
chorus has been organized in addition
to a chorus for girls and mems glee
club. Instruments have been pur-
chased recently for a brass band and
an orchestra.
Several school libraries are being
organized and cataloged by students
in the library methods course at the
normal school. The students do the
mechanical work of labelling and re-
pairing the books as we'll as catalog-
ing the cards. This practical work is
of special interest to teachers in state
graded schools, for they are now re-
quired to know how to catalog a
school library.

The Lost Joke.

Seated one day in my office, l was
hot on the trail of wheeze, and my
fingers wandered idly over the type
writer keys. l know not of what |
was thinking; perhaps of bills that I
owed, when a joke from my cerebel-
lum like turbulent honey flowed. l
rolled on the floor in my laughter
my face turned as blue as a plum !;
the tears down my cheeks came
a-coursing, and still they continued
to come. / laughed till l had apo
plexy; a physician was rushed to my
side, for fear on a barge of hysteric-
| should go drifting out on the tide
| have sought-but | seek it vainly-
that one lost joke, only to find it eludes
me and haunts me entirely, and l fear
shall soon lose my mind. Perhaps
in some dust-covered volume that long
on the bookshelves has lain, of Puck
or of Judge or Joe Miller, I shall find
that joke again.-Ex.

SOME DAY.

Some day, above a casket lid
You'll bend, perhaps, with bitter
tears,
See the dear face, forever hid,
And know that all the coming years
Will bring no more to your sad heart
The face and form and voice you
love;
No more of all your life a part;
Never to meet unless above.
Today maybe, that dear one hears
Words that are cutting, harsh OF
cold;
You bend beneath your cares and
fears,
Forget the JOY in love of old.
But when your bitter thoughts arise
Don't utter unkind words, pray;
For surely as you speak them now,
You'll think of them again some day
To look, through tears, on the still
The face of one so dearly loved,
Lying in Deaths last cold embrace,
No more by love or sorrow moved
And then to think of cruel words;
Words that you must repent Away
While sharp regret your heart has
stirred;
Oh! may you never see that day!
Yet, it may be your fate to go
Out to the great and dark unknown
Closing your eyes to all below,
Leaving your loved ones here alone
Then, as your last thoughts turn in
love
To them, as for their lives you pray
Sad memories, unkind words will
prove;
You'll think of them, perhaps, that
day
Oh, Fathers, Mothers, Children dear!
Oh, Wives and Husbands! Life is
brief
Too short to waste-while you are
Be kind, for it will soothe your grief
To think, when that last parting
comes,
That you were gentle, kind, always
Thankful that Love has ruled your
home;
May, this thought comfort you that
day.

BODY RECOVERED.
Water Glass Aids i'm Locating the
Corpse.

The Amigo Journal tells OF the re-
covery of the body man who was
drowned in Muller's Lake by the use
of water lenses, information that
sometime may prove of value. A week
after the accident, William Martin and
Bud" Rose of Polar recovered the
body in thirty-eight feet of water and
about twenty feet from where it went
down. The two men located it with a
small instrument which they made
themselves. They took a small box
and put a glass on the bottom of it,
placed black cloth over the top and
and cut two small eye holes in it.
Then they put a black cloth over their
heads and placed the glass about six
inches down in the water. Upon look
ing through the two spaces in the top
of the box they could see plainly every
thing on the bottom of the lake. 1t
was not long before they found the
body Of Nadaski and with the aid of
two large hooks it was brought to the
surface The men said that by looking
they could also see the marks made
by the hooks on the bottom of the

Mr.. Krause Not Guilty.

The case of the State VS. Carrot
Krause of Reeseville, with Louis
Brumm as the complaining witness,
was tried before Justice Schmutzler
and Mr.. Krause was absolved from
malicious intent.
1t will be remembered that Mr.
Brumm complained that Mr.. Krause
fired a gun in his direction while on
Mud lake, a bullet striking his boat
oar, and he alleged that the shot was
intended to injure him.
The evidence did not warrant the
court in putting such a serious con-
struction on the evidence, and dis
missal was the verdict.

Pain is a visitor to every home and
usually it comes quite Unexpectedly.
But you are prepared for every emer-

Simply laid on the skin-nO rubbing
required drives the pain away. 1t
is really wonderful.

around the Panama Exposition with
wet feet, Iecame home with my neck
so stiff that 1 couldn't turn. I applied
Sloan's Liniment freely and went to
bed. To my surprise, next morning
the stiffness had almost disappeared,
four hours after the second application
