THE SLIM TEACHER.
'Mister, no doubt you have all the
learning' that's required in a school
teacher, but it wants more than leam
in' to make a man able to teach school
in Cranberry Gulch. You'll soon find
that out if you try. We've had three
who tried it on. One lays there in the
graveyard ; another lost his eye ; the
last one opened school and left before
noontime, for the benefit of his health.
He hasn't been back since. Now
you're slender built, and all your
learnin' will only make it worse, for
all our young folks are roughs, and
don't stand no nonsense.
This was what one of the trustees
of the district said to my friend Harry
Flotoe, when he applied for the vacant
post of teacher.
Let me try. I know that I am
slender, but I am tough and have a
strong will,' said Harry.
Jest as you like. There's the school
house and I'll have the notice given if
you want it done,' said the trustee.
'I do,' said Harry, 'and I'll open
next Monday at 9 a. m.'
The notice was given and there was
a good deal of excitement in the Gulch
and along the Yuba flats. More than
fifty young people of both sexes made
an excuse to drop into the tavern to
get a sight at the new fellow who
thought he could keep echool in that
district, and many a contemptuous
glance fell on the slender form and
yoathful face of the would-be-teacber
Eight o'clock on Monday morning
came, and Harry Flotoe weut down to
the school house with a key in one
hand and a valise in the other.
'Ready to slope, if he finds we're too
much for him,' said a cross-eyed broad
shouldered fellow of 18
The Bchool-house was unlocked, nnd
the new teacher weut to his desk
Some of the folks went to s*e what be
was going to do, ( though school was
not called.
Harry opened his valise and took out
a large,belt. Then, after buckeling it
around bis waist, he put three Colt's
navy revolvers there, each six barrels,
and a bowie-knife eighteen inches in
the blade.
'Thunder! he means business !' mut
tered the cross-eyed chap.
£The new teacher now took a square
card about four inches each way, walk
ed to the other*end_of the school-house
and tacked it up against the wall. Re
turning */0 his desk he drew a revolver
from his belt, and, quick as thought,
sent ball after ball into the card, till
there were six balls in a spot not much
larger than a dollar.
By this time the school-house was
full of half grown boys and girls. The
little ones were afraid to come in.
Then the teacher walked half way
down the room with a bowie-knife in
bis hand,"and threw it with so true a
hand that it stuck quivering in the cen
tre of the card.
He left it there, and quietly put two
more of the same kind in his belt and
reloaded his yet smoking pistol.
'Ring the bell; I am about to'open
school.'
He spoke to the cross-eyed boy, the
bully of the crowd, and the boy rang
the bell.
'The school will take their seats; I
open school with a prayer,' he said,
sternly, five minutes later.
The scholars sat down silently, al
most breathless. After the prayer the
teacher cocked a revolver and walked
down on the floor.
'We will arrange the"classes,' he
said. 'All who can read, write and
spell willjrise. Of them form
the first class.'
Only six got up. He escorted them
to upper seats, and then be began to
examine the rest. A whisper was
heard behind him. In a second he
wheeled, revolver is band—
'Xo whispering allowed here!' he
thundered, and for an instant his re
volver lay on a level with the cross
eyed boy's bead.
'l'll not do so any more" gasped the
bully.
'See you do not. I never give a
second warning,' said the teacher, and
the revolver fell-
It took two hours to organize the
classes, but when done they were all
organized.
Then came recess. The teacher
went out to; for the room was crowded
and hot. A hawk was eircleing over
head, high in the air. The teacher
drew his revolver, the next second the
hawk came tumbling down among the
wondering scholars.
From that day on Harry kept
school for two years ia Cranberry
Gulch, his salary doubled after the first
quarter, and his pupils learned to love
as well as to respect him, and the re
volvers were out of sight within a
month.
They had found a man at last who
could keep school. This is a fact.
[Ke kuk Constitution.]
Every Time.
A man, or even apiece of machinery
that does its work right every time, is
we think, very correctly judged 'valua
ble.' And certainly none the less val
uable is any article designed to relieve
the ills of mankind, and which does so
every time. Mess. Jones) Cook iz Co.,
Bav State Brewery, Boston, Mass.,
write: *We have used St. Jacobs Oil
among our men and find that it helps
them 'every time.' We therefore hear
tily recommend it as a pain-healing
liniment.
A housekeeper who uses milk instead
of soap in washing dishes has this to
say: 'lt softens the hardest water,
gives the dishes a clear, bright look,
and preserves the hands from chapping
which comes from using soap. It
cleans the greasiest dishes without
leaving the water covered with scum.'
To the hesitating Peruna gives cour
age.
The fact that a jury and a court in
New Jersey should find a way to hold
to criminal responsibility the directors
and officers of a bank which had failed
is a matter for universal congratulation.
The recent failures in the management
of national banks inspire a desire to
intensify the legal provisions affecting
banking concerns. The tendency of
rich men, men of business and social
standing, to allow their names to be
used as decoy ducks for the betrayel
of innocent stockholders and depositors
should not be encouraged. When a
citizen of high standing permits him
self to be elected director of a bank he
assumes a respoaibility. Depositors
go to a bank which has good names
to protect them. If these names
fail in this office of protection then the
directors are morally and criminally
responsible.
To the wtJak Peruua gives strength, i
