J. Mock of the Reynoldsville BnptiHt church. District institute, composed of teach ers of Roynoldsvlllu, West Roy noldsville and Winslow township, organized at 10.30 a. m. by electing A. J. Postleth wnite chairman, and Misses Stauffer and Beer secretaries. . First subject for discussion, "Funda mental Rules of Arithmetic," was very ably discussed by Prof. W. M. Brown, Prof. Leavenworth and Prof. Lenkerd. Some of the practical thots given were: The great weakness of work in mathe matics in all grades, and especially in the higher grades, is weakness in the fundamental rules. Pupils, as a rule, are not accurate in the fundamental rules. This work should become me chanical. Great mistake was made when mental arithmetic was eliminated from our publio schools. Mental arith metic causes a consciousness of power that is not obtained by written arithme tic. Tt should be incorporated into all the schools. In the absence of a paper on his sub ject, "The Objects of a Recitation," by W. T. Harris, U. S. Commissioner of Education, was read by the chairman. Prof. W. M. Brown discussed "Nature Work In the School." Hesald: "Nature, study should be from nature and not from books. We are selfish if we know nothing of our neighbors the animals and plants of our earth. Teach pupils not to fear the small ani mals. Bring them into the school room. The work should teach us to love the objects of nature. Should have pupils spend much time in watching the things in nature. Then follows the true love of nature, and the true lover of nature recognizes God In all nature." Adjourned to meet at 1.30 p. m. Afternoon session opened by singing "Beautiful Isle." Prof. Burdick discussed bis subjoot, "Value of an Education." Prof. Leavenworth discussed, "Phys ical Culture." He said: "In schools where the session is three hours long we should give exercises for rest of both body and mind. Begin with light ex ercises, it is a worK in wbico an are interested and progress is very appar ent. The object Is to rost pupils; to create within them tbo innate con sciousness of decision; to cultivate a liking for promptness of decision. Re sults are that pupils return to mental effort greatly refreshed." On the same subject, Prof. Teitrick said: The country and borough schools need much different klndsof physloal ex ercises. Physical culture gives grace and ease In movement which Is a great help in the exigonoles of life. Time Is coming when muslo, drawing and phys ical culture will be taught in all our publio schools." An address on "How the Home May Help the School," by Prof. J. L. Allison, of Puoxsutawney. He said: "The ends of tha home and the school are the same, to fit the child for life. The home Is the basis upon which this must depend. Tha office of the parent Is the greatest offlot to which any human be ing can aaplre. The law require a eertlfloata before may person can teach, but there are parenU all over the land who are not at all oapable of training children. Child should be trained In the first six years, so that the teacher will not have to take so much time to oorreot the errors of the first six years at home. If the home Influence Is right there Is little difflulty in training tha child In school. Children are sent to school too young. The parents send them to be rid of them at home. Posi tive Injury to the child is the result. Personal influenoe it the greatest factor In teaching. This being true the par ent should exert his Influenoe in the right direction or the school can do very little good. If tha home and -T-'fv. , ri.'lj' riM SMMtniej, weeAiveM j Building Pan-American school do not work together, the school Is of little use. The Influence of the homo Is the greatest that is over brought to boar upon the life of the child. The best and greatest men have always at tributed their success to the homo in Hence. The home guard should be a guard against all the 'Ills of life.' " Institute favored by a solo by Miss Myrtle Shobert and a recitation by Master Walter Bates. Address, "The Duties of a Teacher," by Prof. R. H. Longwell, of Brockway vllle. Hesald: "Some of the teacher's duties are as follows: First duty is care ful preparation for the work. Devotion of whole time to the work. Health must be preserved; hours must be regu lar. Teacher should be Inspired and Interested In his work and the welfare of the children. Most Important duty of teacher Is to live a pure life, to be a christian. The personal contact of teacher with pupil counts much. Talk with pupil In regard to their life and work. Some people say it is a duty of the teacher to treat all pupils alike. No two pupils have the same disposition, so they can not be treated alike." Next on program was a solo by Miss Margaret Butler. Rev. P. A. Reno then gave a short talk on the close relation between the teacher's profession and the ministry. Prof. H. C. Leavenworth gave a read ing, "Grading the Street." County Superintendent R. B. Toltrlck then addressed the institute on the sub ject, "Observations Made In Schools." He spoke of the Co-operation of home and school and urged each teacher to spend thirty minutes a day In thinking how to Interest parents and patrons In the schools. He spoke of the school atmosphere and said: "It should be a cheerful thrifty atmosphere. Some things to establish this good feeling are: neatness of the teacher, cheer ful disposition, firmness of purpose, polite conduct, condition of whole school arrangement. The teacher should make careful preparation for each day's work. Should encourage kindly feeling between pupils and teacber, and among pupils. The teacher's aim should be to cultivate the powers of the pupil." On motion vote of thanks was taken for hospitality received. Adjourned sine die. Sandy Valley.

P. tell a story of the Duchess of Mont rose, whose beauty Is no lesa renowned than her philanthropy. Tbe scene was a basaar where the duchess was selling photographs. One old Scotchwoman was very anxious to secure a photo graph of tbe duchess, but tbe price ask ed was S shillings. Tbe old woman hesitated. She wanted tbe photograph. but she could not well afford so much. "You can have my husband," said the duchess, with an amused glance at the duke stnndlng near, "for 2s. Gd." The would be purchaser looked at the duke and then at his photograph con temptuously. "Half a crown!" she blurted out "1 wouldno give a silver snxpence for him. But." she added Insinuatingly, "1 am right willing to give bauf a croon for your bonnle sel'." The duchess was unable to resist this, and herself added the other half crown to the bazaar coffers, or, aa an other version of tbe story goes, the de spised duke proffered tbe balance. f She Was Ahead. Marjorle bad just returned from a Visit to the old homestead In Tennessee, where a colored nurse nearly 100 years old was still an Inmate. It pus sled her that Chloe should be called "auntie" by her mother and the family, but at last she accepted the fact and did likewise. Her playmates, troop ing In to welcome her borne, began to enumerate, their possession acquired during her absence. "I've got a black pony," crowed Charlie exultantly. "I've got a new baby brother," cried Jessie. "M'ml That' nothing; I've got two of 'em," retorted Fred. Marjorle' eyes flashed. "OhV she cried.
