Law Was Not Repealed.
To the Editor,
Pear Sir: In last week's issue of the
Enterprise the inference is drawn that
the recent cbange of law, which makes it
the dutv ol the County Court to levy fo
per cau'ita, has also abolished the provi
sion by which $50 is to be apportioned to
each district.
Allow me to say through your valued
columns that the law governing the ap
portionment of school funds was in no
way modified, except that two apportion
ments, those made in October and in
April are made obligatory, others being
left to the discretion of the Superintend
ent. As a matter of fact, this apportion
ment was made in part last October and
is to be completed in Aoril.
The present school law went into effect
last May. The following from the State
Department has reached me by the last
mail :
"This department has recently ren
dered the following opinion: No part of
the $51 apportioned to each district in ao
accordance with subdivision 3, page 17,
o..i 1 T aa'a nhall ha transferred
wreguu oL-iiu.il '"" v. . "
when a board of directors of any district
transfers to another district any child,
together with all school moneys due by
apportionment to such child as provided
for in subdivision 11, page 42, Oregon
School Laws."
Very truly yours,
J. C. ZlNSEB,
Superintendent.

CHINESE PROVERBS.
If the roots be left, the grass will
grow again.
One lash to a good horse; one word
to a wise man.
The pods cannot help a man who
loses opportunities.
Riches come better after poverty
than poverty after riches.
Dig a well before you are thirty. Be
prepared for contingencies.
The error of one moment becomes
the sorrow of a whole lifetime.
Borrowed money makes time short;
working for others makes it long.
The gem cannot be polished without
friction nor the man perfected without
trials.
Large fowls will not eat small grain.
Great mandarins are not content with
little bribes.
A wise man adapts himself to cir
cumstances as water shapes Itself to
the vessel that contains it
The best thing is to he respected and
the next is to be loved. It Is bad to be
hated, but worse still to be despised.
Mirrors.
The first record concerning mirrors
dates back to the days of the venerable
Moses, and they were made of brass.
When the Spaniards landed In South
America they found mirrors of polished
black stone in use among the natives.
In the fifteenth century the first glass
mirrors were made in Germany by a
blowpipe, nnd were convex. The first
manufactory of glass mirrors for sale
was established in Venice early in the
sixteenth century. In the reign of
James I. men, women and children
wore looking glasses publicly, the men
ns brooches or ornaments in their hats
and the women at their girdles or on
their bosoms.
A HTMX OF PKAISE,

Praise him who made the starry .cj.
The azure vault where planets rod.
The psili (hat through Death's valley lies
And leads to Life the immortal soul.
Praie hint who doeth all things well,
Whoanswers every puredesire;
Who makes for man no burning hell,

And thank him for bis chast'oini; rod

A Qunrt Baby
Now and again there ia an item in the
newspapers concerning the birth of a
nc i.'ahv so small that a Quart cup
holds it comfortably. If the article told
all the facts it would probamy tell also
of a mother who in weakness and misery
had looked forward to the baby's advent
with shrinking and fear.
To have fine, healthy children the
mother must be healthy, and it is tiie
common testimony
of mothers that the
use of Dr. i'itrce's
Favorite Prescrip
tion not only pro
motes the mother's
health but also
gives her strength
to give her child.
" Favorue Pre
scription " accom
plishes these results
by tranquilizing
the nerves, promot
ing a healthy appe
tite, and trivinir re
freshing sleep. It increases physical
vigor and gives great muscular elasticity,
ao that the baby's advent is practically
pain! ess. It is 'the best of tonics for
Bursiug mothers.
