I was reading an advertisement of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy in the Worcester Enterprise recently, which leads me to write this.

An evening paper gave a full report of Sherman’s death, and sup posing it to be authentic, the Spirit mediums called up his spirit that night and received several “mes sages.’ A few hours later it wasan nounced that Sherman was still alive ■nd the mediums lied about talk ing to hisspirit.

Peanut, where h ■ has concluded to take up his resi <l nee. This name, Peanut Hill, or as we think now more appropriate, Mt. Peanut, was given to the resi dence portion of east Miller, by the jocular Col. Harry Sawyer, Sec retary of the state Bail way Commis sion, who used to liye there. The name and locality has a local fame in verse and song, and has afforded considerable amusement to east side residents. | m eduwtTonal j ♦ DY superintendent snoddv. ♦ Notice of Normal In-tititte. Notice is hereby given that the An nual Normal Institute for Hand coun ty will convene in Miller. Monday. June sth at 10 o'clock A. M. and continue for four weeks, followed by a special exan.inatian, Saturday, July, 1. .ByorderofJ.lL Snoddv, lGt-3 County Superintendent. In connection with the Institute announcement. 1 desire to make some explanations in regard to the educational affairs of the county. The available institute fund is but little more than half what hasusual ly been expended each year for that purpose. But we need a four weeks institute; and in order to get it, re trenchment must be introduced in some lines, and departure from pre vailing methods in others. Every teacher inthecounty isdeep ly interested in the success of this season's institute as a means of re ducing the large number of Third Grade certificates, and of Second Grades issued on low scholarship. Many of these certificates have been issued to the same applicants sever al times insuccession. True teachers should not be satisfied with such re sults which are but standing adver tisements of one, or all, of three things; lack of natural ability, in dustry or ambition. A Third Grade certificate is simply a local and temporary expedient and the law gives it validity, “only in such school as may be designated by the County Superintendent;” and when he fails to specify the school where it is legal and designates a whole county or even a district it has no legality anywhere. It may be the letter, but it is certainly not the spirit, of the law that Third Grades shoul ’ be issued to the same person several times in succession ; nor even Second Grades, to the same appli cant, from year to year, without some show of progress. Hand county has many teachers well up in both metkodsa>udscholar ship, and no fears are entertained as to their encouragement of the insti tute. In order to raise the standard of teaching, in order to properly utilize the $27,000.00 paid annually for school puiposes in the county, in order to give every boy and girl the yery best possible school privileges, I ask every teacher, every patron, every taxpayer,—in fact all good citizens, for their hearty cooperation in making the coming institute one eminently successful. It is said that a guarantee fake is being worked upon farmers in some counties. Smoothe agents guaran tee that the farmer will raise from $2.50 to $5. worth of grain per acre. Another man’s game is«usually load ed. Attorney General Pyle was in Mil ka- today shaking hands with his old Hand county friends, who have con fidence that he will make an efficient and honorable state official. The reputation of a good square man is never affected by partisan criticism. O -A. S T o n. x A. Boars the _/} Y° u Haw Always Bought Al.
