His head wni literally covered with acabs

"At lsA when he s about three yesrs

of Cuticura Resolvent. I ued them according

General Pawtenger Agent
PORTLAVD, OREGON.
The following resume of the new
school laws has been prepared oy
Frank K. Welles, county school su
perintendent: Several important changes have
been made In the laws governing trio
certification of teachers. Hereafter
all certificates will be state papers,
and will entitle the holders to teach
In any county in Oregon, after hav
ing registered their certificates In the
county where they intend to teach.
The new laws do not invalidate any
certificates that have already been
issued. Persons who have partially
completed their examinations for state
certificates or life diplomas, may com
plete their examinations under the
old laws.
The next regular teachers' exami
nation will be held on June 21, 22,
23 and 24. There will be no exami
nation in August, hence all persons
whose certificates expire in August,
or who wish to take teachers' exami
nations in order to teach next year,
should write at the June examlna-
ton. The new law does away with
the issuing of any more county cer
tificates, except that county superin
tendents will have authority to issue
county certificates on state grades un
til May 20.
Under the present law applicants
must complete the subjects for a
state certificate within three succes
sive examinations. The new law pro
vides that such persons may com
plete their examinations under the
laws now in force. All persons,
therefore, who are writing for state
certificates should appear at the June
examination.
Applicants for a one-year state cer
tificate must make a general aver
age of not less than 75 per cent and
shall not fall below 60 per cent In
any one of the following subjects:
Writing, orthography, arithmetic,
physiology, grammar, civil govern
ment, school law, psychology, Ameri
can literature, algebra, physical ge
ography and composition. Twelve
months' teaching experience is re
quired for this paper.
Applicants for a Hfe state certifi
cate must make a general average of
not less than 85 per cent and snail
not fall below 70 per cent in any
one of the following subjects: Arith
metic, writing, orthography, reading,
physiology, school law, civil govern
ment, grammar, geography, theory
and practice of teaching, U. S. his
tory.lpsychology, American literature,
English literature, algebra, physical
geography, plane geometry, botany,
physics, bookkeeping, composition,
general history, geology and history
of education. Thirty months' teach
ing experience is required for this
paper.
Applicants for primary five-year
state certificate must make a gener
al average of not less than 85 per
cent and shall not fall below 70 per
cent In any one of the following sub
jects: Methods in reading, methods
in arithmetic, methods in language,
methods in geography, theory and
practice of teaching, writing, orthog
raphy, physiology, physchology, and
in addition thereto shall write a the
sis on an educational subject selected
froma list prepared by the superin
tendent of public instruction. Twelve
months' teaching experience is re
quired for this paper which gives the
applicant authority to teach only In
the first, second and third grades.
No examination in English classics
will be required iin the June exami
nation on account of the lack of time
for announcements and preparation.
All examinations will be based upon
the text-books adopted by the state
text-book commission.
The Rioebird Uses His Bulky Enemy
at an Aeroplane.
People generally associate size and
brute strength with victory, especially
anion; the lower anltunls. Many times,'
however, this Is far from being the
case, especially iu the bird kingdom.
Among the rice tints of the Carolluas
there abound at some seasons of the
year tiny rlceblrds, birds so small that
It takes two dozen for a good meal,
though bones and nil are eaten.
The great buzzard Is found circling
over the flats nt nil seasons. He dreads
the time for the rioebird to come, for
be Is then nearly pestered to death. It
Is a common sight to see one of these
little birds fly up to a buzzard and,
after dodging this way and that round
the awkward bulk, finally alight well
forward between the buzzurd's wings
on the back. Here the tiny passengei
grabs n few feathers In his beak nntl
holds on for grim life. After enJo .
a ride for ns long as he desires the
little fellow hops off and Is gone before
Mr. Buzzard Is well aware of it
The peculiar part of the whole thing
fs that apparently the only purpose the
rioebird hns In getting on the back of
the buzzard Is to take n free ride. It
puzzles every one who chances to see
the little drama to find nny other rea
son, yet the fact remains that It is n
frequent occurrence, and the Uttle
birds seem to enjoy it Immensely.

INDIAN DEATH CUSTOMS.
Graves of the Hop! and the Hogana of
the Navajo.
The Hopl Indian believes that the
souls of all deceased adults go to the
Grand canyon. When a man dies a
grave Is dug. The nearest relative of
the deceased carries the body to the
grave, places It in a sitting posture
facing the Grand canyon, erects a long
(pole between the legs, locks the dead
man's fingers around It and fills the
grave. To the top or tne poie, pro
truding above the ground, he ties one
end of a string and leads the other
end In the direction of the Grand can
yon. At the end of four days It to
believed the soul leaves the body,
climbs the pole and with the string to
guide it goes to its eternal home in the
canyon.
The Navajos, on the contrary, are
very superstitious about handling dead
bodies. They believe that the evil
spirit that kills the person hovers
around the hogan, ns they call their
lodge, awaiting other victims, and a
hogan In which a death occurs Is never
occupied again. Navajo hogans are
always built with the entrance facing
the east When a death occurs in one
of them an opening is Invariably made
In the north side. Therefore when one
sees a hogan with the north side
knocked out he may be certain some
one has died In it Dillon Wallace in
Outing.
Antiquity of the Dog.
It la Impossible to say ,-when dogs
were first domesticated, but some of
the earliest traces are found on Egyp
tian monuments,, with figures of dogs,
somewhat of the greyhound type,
which date back to at least 3500 B. C.
Even In those remote days the dog
was highly esteemed. Coming down
little later, we read that Ulysses
3.000 years ago was recognized by his
dog Argus after his swineherd bad
failed to do so.
Plutarch speaks of Alclbades, who
cut off the tall of his dog, and Myron,
the sculptor, immortalized the animal
by chiseling his Image In marble. The
Romans valued their dogs and kept
them from the chase and also as pets.
Alexander the Great owned a veteran
fit to tackle a lion.
A Fi!roe Night Alarm.
Is the hoarse, startling cought of a
child, suddenly attacked by croup.
Often it aroused Lewis Chamblln of
Manchester, O., (R. R. No. 2) for
their four children were greatly sub
ject to croup. "Sometimes in severe
attacks," he wrote "we were afraid
they would die, but since we proved
what a certain remedy Dr. King's
New Discovery is, we have no fear.
We rely on It for croup and for
coughs, colds or any throat or lung
trouble." So do thousands of others.
