Pupils Not Having Certificates of Vaccination Will Not Be Admitted to School. Today Is the last day on which pu pils of tho public sojiools of this city enn be -vaccinated In time to be ad mitted to school Monday morning. Tho time limit set by the board of health expires this evening. On Monday, each pupil must bring to school u cer tificate signed by n city physician that lie or she has been successfully vac cinated or hns bad smallpox. Children not having such certlticntes will not be allowed to attend school nnd it will be tho duty of the principals and teachers to see that tho law is ob servcU. If a child la absent from school on account of not being vac cinated, it Is probable that the truant otlJcor will call upon tho parents and quote tho law upon the subject. Thero will probably not be many cases of children sent home, however, as near ly all tho pupils of the schools In this city have been vaccinated during tho past two weeks, und the doctors nre having a much-needed rest. Ho Changed His Mind. The members of the board ol! revis ion of taxes and appeals are still chuckling over an Incident that oc curred on Wednesday evening and which n-iftly illustrates a predomi nating phase of human nature. An Irato citizen from tho Second ward came pushing his way before tho hoard, and vigorously started in to state his case. He pulled his assess ment papers out of his pocket and waving them In tho air. commenced: "Now, look here. I don't propose to stand this any longer. You follows liavo been piling up my taxes and this year I am assessed a couple of bun dled more dollars than I was last. I haven't made any Improvement: havn't even built a fence, and my property has depreciated In value. Xow, I ain't a-golng to pay this as sessment." Tho board Is used to this sort ot thing. In a mechanical manner one ot the members hunted up tho man's as soHscmcnt last year and then took this year's papers up and compared, them. Then a surprised look gave way to im amused one, and ho ventured; "Well, If we make thin year's assess ment tho same as lout, will It be nil light?" "Now, you're talking! Of course It will, I'm glad 1 cniuo down hero and made a kick," and tho protesting eiti zen'n fneo became wreathed In smiles, "U'oll. all right." said tho searcher, "but the book hero says that your as-f-epsnient lust year was $250 lilgfier thaii it s. this time." "What's that'.'" A lum-led glance rc veulid that truth-was spoken. "And you s-iy you are willing to pay the fame ns last year without a kick?" pin-rued the tax adjuster. "Weil I guess not: Give mo tiioso papers. I'll pay this right away, I Rues?, before thn assessor raises tho ante." And tin- Second ward man wandered out In the corridor with his lint on the back of his head and Ills hand Chasing through his hair. Ho wore a dliferent look from what ho did when Jio entered, and he spoke In a Joyful key lo a couple of friends ho papscd, who weie ruining In to Imvu their nsf-osmoiiiH reduced.

If she got over the minimum number allowed she passed on to the nextvtablc whero a number of needles and spools of thread reposed. Hero sho had to see how many needles sho could thread In three minutes. At the next stopping place sho was given a piece of paper and a pencil nnd had a chanco to draw it house, but with her eyes shut. The last table contained pins and she there had to seo how many pins sho could stick back on their orlgnal paper In three minutes.
