AOVIGE FROM Stale Superintendent Speaks Before Institute. PRINEVILLE, Ore., Oct. 10. J. II. Ackerman, state superintendent of public Instruction, at an address to 100 teachers at the Crook county institute at Prlneville, said: "I would advise every teacher when seeking a contract to teach in any district in Oregon, first to ascer tain the certain amount of the dis trict's general school fund, 85 per cent of which under the law must be spent for school instruction. I would .further advise every Oregon teacher then to demand in his or her con tract 85 per cent of this sum as salary; in other words, if the fund amounts to $500, do not accept a jenny less than $-175. Using these figures there are some school boards -who deem it a smart trick to pay the teacher, say ?400, turning the $25 over and above, but within the law ful 85 per cent, back Into the gon- oral fund, thus lessening the taxes of . JLho .district just that much. This is poor policy for both parties so next year demand the full 85 per cent or .refuse to sign the contract." Another noteworthy part of Mr. Ackorman's address was: "All over -this country there are old bachelors; close around every school house hun dreds of them. Understand me, I Jim not speaking of old maids; there .aren't any, or very few, in Oregon. These old bachelors in most Instances lave spreading acres and more raon ?y than they know what to do with. Go to them, tell them you want a Jieticr school library and ask them to contribute. I know they will; they'll help you to get more and bet ter books for the children; they've got tho money; go and see them." OVKK-KSTIMATIOX. It is so current an evil, this matter of lying In press reports, that every -thinking man cuts down tho report ed loss of Hie or property fully ono linlf when reading tho lurid dis patches. Two excellent cases of this malicious lying wero noticed last week when tho reports of tho forest fires in British Columbia, and In the 3oos Bay country wont flashing to sill daily papers. In tho former account, tho fire sit Ferule, matters wero so highly colored that fow would bellovo tho reports. Tho "hundreds of dead" 3ias now boon reduced to less than a jscoro; while tho $9,000,000 worth of property destroyed Is now placed sit about one-third that sum. True, ithe corrected reports are bad enough, ihero was no need of adding a bit of color to niako them more lurid. Each now dispatch was written by ;ome now man upon the sccno, and utery report tried to outdo all pre vlons liars. In Coos Bay tho correspondent of tho Portland Journal did ono of tho prettiest bits of lying seen In mnny a long year; tho way In which ho (.pictured tho "thousand homeless Booplo" wandering nmong tho hun drods of acres of red-hot faggots was enough to drive ono Into fits, when the fact was that ono tent was burn ed ?md n fow acres of tlnibor totally destroyed. Thi-so tales becomo monotonous nfter tho public Is surfeited with thorn, Tho falsifications nro neod Jbss; tholr publicity merely alarms thoso having acquaintances In the .district which Is described. 1 . I Possibly "Twolvo burned to death and n proporty loss of threo millions" wouldn't soli ns many papers ns "Hundreds lnclnornted and ton mil Ulon dollars go up In flames," but It would glvo tho paper n much hotter sreputntlon for voracity, Astoria ZLoader. " csr the other is running away from his The recent capture of several crews of Japanese seal poachers by United States revenue cutters in the Behring sea indicates that the state department is at last alive to the fact that the herds of the various beaches are in danger of being ex terminated by lawless hunters. Can ada, Japan and Russia are said to be ready to cooperate with this coun try in the work of preserving the seal, and it is probable that joint action will soon bo taken. At pres ent the Behring sea Is not patroled as well as it might be under an In ternational arrangement. Several days ago two Japanese .schooners were overhauled by the United States revenue cutter Bear, and about forty men placed under arrest after a brief, bloodless fight. The crews shortly will be tried for their crimes. In this case conviction Is certain, Inasmuch as both boats were found within the three-mile limit off tho Prihilof Islands, with several hundred freshly killed seals on board. Not many days before this affair another Japanese schoon er was captured off the Copper is lands, Its crew also being held for poaching. The diminution of the seal herds within tho last few years Is appall ing. Many of tho famous rookeries which, not a decade ago, afforded a breeding ground for thousands and thousands of tho fur-bearing crea tures, in season today, are visited by only a few hundred. The seals 'isually return to the same beaches year after year, and this fact makes It obvious that some of the big herds have been almost exterminated. Seal hunting Is profitable only when tho animals have come back to tho beaches after their long season's swim. When the creatures have made their temporary homes at the rookeries they remain close by shore. In order to find their quarry In suf ficient numbers to justify a poach ing expedition, tho hunters must In vado tho three-mllo zone. A few vessels whoso crews nro permitted 10 hunt undisturbed near a rookery for a week or so will play sad havoc with a herd. If the seal are to be preserved tho governments interest ed must quickly come to some sort of mutual understanding. DON'T WASTE VOUIt SHEKELS. Don't advertise If you bellovo you are wasting money. Let your com petitor wasto his money on advertis ing and perhaps in that way you will put him out of business. Fix his clock for him. Just stand back and laugh at him when you see him squander his money for Ink. Once there was a boy named John, we bellovo his namo was Wanamaker or may bo It was Moneymaker; any how his namo was John with somo sort of a maker attached to tho last name. Ho owned fifty yards of cal ico, three pairs of jean pants, half a dozon pairs of home-mado socks and flvo pairs of boots. Ho called this a dry goods storo through a Philadel phia newspaper and offered to sell a pair of socks for 39 cents. Tho don't-beliove-ln-ndvertlslng merchant laughed. Young John spont $G5 to ndvortlso with tho Philadelphia Led ger just ono tlmo and has been throwing monoy away over slnco. Ho was cautioned by tho merchants who know it didn't pay. It was through sympathy for his poor mother, they said, that tlioy offored him advlco. But John did not listen to them and went on nud blew his money foolish ly. Poor John sees tho result of his nils-doing ho has so many dry goods stores that ho can hardly find tlmo to study his Sunday school les son.

Each recurring attack of rheuma tism makes the disease harder to control, but the fact that it is not in itself dangerous causes people to neglect it, awaiting a change or a settled condition of the weather for relief. It is often only after the dis ease has become so serious as to in terfere with business that the suf ferer will seek more than temporary relief. Chamberlain's Liniment is a remedy for rheumatism which any ono can apply. It not only gives prompt relief from pain, but in a largo majority of cases it brings about permanent results.
