AND A LIFE SAVED By the Persistent Use of Ayer's Sarsaparilia "I was troubled for years with a sore on my knee, which several physicians, who treated me, called a cancer, assuring me that nothing could be done to save in y life. As ' a last resort, I was induced to try Ayer's Sarsapavilht, and, after tak ing a number of bottles, the sore began to disiqipear and mv general health improve, I persisted in this treatment, until the sore was en tirely healed. Since then, I use Ayer's Sarsaparilla occasionally as a tonic and blood-purifier, and, in deed, it seems as tlioMsli I could not keep house without it." Mrs. S. A. Fields, BlooinlieUl, la. The Only World's Fair Sarsaparilla. Ayer'rf" Pills Regulate the Liver- The School Teachers Enjoy a Joke. The monotony of the regular routine work of the institute is relieved now and then by a practical joke being played by some of the fun-loving teachers. The latest of which your correspondent has received any information, was one played by a certain coterie of the Hood Kiver delegation on one of their number, The chief actors in the fun were notfl equal to the task themselves, but were compelled to call to their asssistance quite a few of the Dalles people. The lady, who was the victim in this in stance, eeems to be an adept in practical joking, and is very sagacious, so much so that it requires the combined and united effort of many to successfully en trap her. I apprehend that I will be come a victim to her capriciousness for, imparting this information to your read ers. To soften the blow when it does come, I deem it policy not to give the names of the parties concerned, but des ignate each in a different manner. The victim, Mies Asbestos, had in a mischievous hour perpetrated a joke on Mr. Greenpark that was immensely en joyed by his acquaintances and friends. To equalize the matter or, in the ver nacular of the street, to "get even" be came his controlling passion. Now, Miss Asbestos has a very near and dear friend in the person of Mr. Dunny Meade Groate, who is at present at work in the Hood Kiver valley. I will say, by way of parenthesis, and as an explanation, that Mr. Dunny Meade and Miss Asbestos are very much de voted to each other,' and, as is natural in such cases, find great pleasure in each other's company. Having been sepa rated for some two or three weeks, it was supposed that a meeting between them would be much enjoyed. Acting upon this supposition, a meeting was arranged as follows: The brother ot Miss Asbestos contrived to have Mr. Greenpark play the part of Dunny Meade in calling up Miss Asbestos over the 'phone, inform ing her that he was in Hood River and had broken his "bike," which could notJ be repaired there, and would come to The Dalles on the 10:45 p. m. to have it repaired, and would be pleased to have her meet him at the train. I am told that Miss Asbestos was so elated over the pleasant anticipation of meeting Mr. Dunny Meade that she neglected her baking and burnt the cake and ' pies A. a the hour for the arrival of the train drew near her anxiety increased percep tiblv. She had invited several of her lady friends to accompany her to the train, " a few of whom had been apprised . of the joke, and it was laughable to see ' them undergoing the excruciating pain of keeping silent. The ladies, with their escorts, re paired to the depot to await the income ing of the train, Miss Aebestos in high glee and joyful expectancy, the other ladies biting their fingers, chewing their pencils and pinching themselves to pre' vent laughing. The train, arrived on time, with no Mr. Dunny Meade on board ; bat Greenpark appeared on the ' scene at this opportune time, with a smile extending over bis entire physi ognomy. It was then that Mr. Asbestos discovered the sell and the commotion began. As the joke had been so admir ably arranged and carried out in all its details, the eell and disappointment were complete. The fan increasing to the extent of becoming noisy and bois terous, one of the quiet citizens of the city requested the preeence of Sheriff Driver to keep the peace. The Bheriff being aware of the joke and well ac quainted with all the parties, informed the citizen that no harm would come to anything unless it might be the cakes and pies. It is to the credit of the lady to eay that she bore up under the trying ordeal with patience and fortitude, but re peating to herself Twas ever thus from childhood's hoar I ve seen my fondest hoj.es decav; I never loved a tree or flower, nut twas hrst to Inde away. Felix. The Normal Institute. Today at the institute the following, taken from "Pedagogical Pebbles," was used in the theory claes. Teacher, if yoti lack the power of presence, develop it; if you lack vigor of speech, acquire it; if you lack energy of bodily move ment, develop it; if you lack enthusi asm, generate it; if you do not love children, quit teaching school. Twelve principles of good manage ment, from "Hewett's Pedagogy." First No school can be well taught if it is not well managed. Second Never make anything per taining to management an end in itself. Third No : work is ever likely to be well done if it is not well planned. Fourth A teacher's example weighs more than his words. I'lith Make no law, grant or retuse no request, give no reproof till yow have thought about tlu mailer. Sixth When you have once taken your stand, stick to it. ' Seventh If, however, you see that you have made a mistake, confess and rectify your mistake like a marr. Eighth One who is kept busy about right things has no time for mischief. Ninth Be more anxious to prevent wrong doing than to punish it. Tenth Often make a friend of a way ward pupil by getting him to do you a service. . Eleventh Seek always the -good of your pupils ; let good to yourself be in cidental. " Twelfth Never punish in anger. ' CLASS WORK TODAY. Theory Corporal punishment.
