Although It stirs our Iro
To go fin higher, higher.
And leave here as a token

These fruit mid spoils of literary grucest
Let other roine up higher,
Wlut have n fond desire
To make n reputation,
And "iireud ocrnll erentlon

To hide 11 parting cry
When said our hint good bye:
The worthy shun the past without n ntirli.
Now we will hn vn a trial
To rlt nnd rend nwhlle
The things the rent compile.
And thus the time beguile.
And smile nnd smile Htid stnllc,
When once we're lodged in realms ti little

Pon't mourn when we are none, .
Nor praise our mime In souk,
Hut push thin work along
To make thin small request Is our desire.

We have no grout desire,
While office terms expire

Tell you something, prior
To the purling ntid departure uf Htnltli, Cole

Next week there will bo a change
made In the editorial staff uf this col
umn. It U hoped that the change will
be IW the bettor. Tho present staff
will, no dniiht. bo glad to resign In favor
of others. Tho work of editing this
coin in it has been no smiill task when
the students failed to contribute liber
ally. It Is to bo hoped that the staff
which Is to be will havo greater sue
ces than the staff that has been.
It Is being recognized by some of tho
scholars that this work Is as much for
their bmcflt ns for tho benefit of the
editor. Wo earnestly desire that all
will cooperate with the editors here
after to make of our Journal Istio enterprise-
a more brilliant success than our
feeble efforts havo been able to accom
plish heretofore.

HIS SCHOOL DAYS.
Oh for school dnys painless play,
Hleep that wakos mullo die.

Knowledge never learned of hooks,
Of each other's evoulnir chnsui
Of the teacher's time and placet
Klltiht of knives and habitat
Of the knives some other iroti

How to work another "sell;"
Or stay out till second hell;
How the xlrls all say they're young;
How the oldest sans are sprung;
Where best at the hoard to ico;
And the choicest seat to know;
How In ropy, line for line,
I'rom the Kir I you sit behind,
And of trulll conceal each slum
Of the trickster's rumilnir way,

HAMLET'S SOLILOQUY HOYLE.
To draw or not to draw, that Is tho question;
Whether It Is safer In the player to take
The awful risk of skinning for a straight ; -Or,
standing pat, to raise 'em ull the limit,
And thus, by blurring, get It.
LOCAL.
One of the Junior girls said to a boy
who was teasing her, "You old skin
flint." We would like to know the ety
mology of this peculiar word.
Viola McGaw was on the sick list last
week.
Miss Ella Lenktrd spent Sunday In
DuBois.
"My dear girl" Is a pet name that
some of the girls in the Junior Geom
etery class are now receiving.
Pupils wishing to take drawing les
sons should call on Miss Elsie Ross.
C. C. Hammond was in Punxsutawney
over Sunday,
We thought we had a visitor last
Monday but on Investigation we learned
that Jim Mulr got his hair out.
It's rather peculiar that some of our
large girls and boys must often laugh
at others In recitation. Those who
laugh never think of the situation re
versed and Ima?ino themselves receiv
ing the same kind of treatment at the
hands of their associates.
Some of tho Seniors must be almost
discouraged in reading Caenar. One of
the girls had a white flag hung on her
book the other day. Is not that the
sign of surrender?
There is, as we all know, cr as we
should know, a period for study and a
period for recitation, Some of the pu
pils of the High School endeavor to do
their studying during the Jlme for reci
tation. The recitation period is too
short for both and those who aresie "Ing
to study and reulto at the same time
will be sorry when examination day ar
rives. Much better for all concerned If
tho studying and reciting were done at
separate times.
It seems that there are quite a num
ber of somnambulists in the Sub-junior
class.
CAFD OF THANKS.
Tho Junior class wishes to tender a
vote of thanks to the unknown who was
so kind as to remomber them Id the
Bulletin last week.

Ironical Ifs.
If smiles are sunshine frowns must be
cloudy weathor.
If a man is easily discouraged he will
languish in obscurity.
If a woman once poses as a beauty It
keeps her busy trying to llvo up to It.
If marriage wasn't a lottery the law
might not Interfere In so many cases.
If you plant your money while young
you may harvest a fortune In after
years.
If It wasn't for the pleasure of telling
It lots of people wouldn't acquire knowl
edge. If a man treated all women as he
treats his wife the chances are that he
would bo very unpopular among his
fair acquaintances.
If, as a lady writer says, girls seldom
marry the men who waste money on
them, there is evidently method in some
men' madness.
Headache for Forty Years.
For forty years I suffered from sick
headacho. About a year ago I began
using Celery King. Tho result was
gratifying and surprising, my headaches
leaving at once. The headaches used
to return every seventh day, but thanks

headacho In the lust eleven months. I
know that what cured me will help
others. Mrs. John D. VunKeuron,

THE CUMBERLAND.
At tmchor In Hxmpton Heads wo InT
On board of the futuhcrhind. sloop-of-itnr,
And fit times from the fortress across
the buy
The nl.'irum of drums swept past
Or a leigle blnst
Prom the camp on the shore.
Th'n f-ir nwny lo the south up rose
A little feather of snov white smoke,
And we knew that the Iron ship of our
foes
Wn stdi.llly itei rlng Its course
To try the force
Of our ribs of oak.
Down open t:s heavily rttns,
Pllent nnd s'.illrn. the flouting fort;
Then crn;cs n puff of smoke from her
guns
And h ups the terrible death,
Ith hery breath,
From each open port.
We nre not Idle, but send her straight
Iefnt:rc back In it full broadsldel
As hall rebounils from u roof of slats ,
nd'outi'ls our b avier hall ,
From eaeli in :i scalo
Of the monster's hide. 1

"Strike your ling!" the rebel erics
In bis arroKntit oM plantation strain.
"Never!" our gall.int Morris replies.
"It Is better to sink than to yield!"
And tho whole it f r peuled
With the cheers of our men.
i
Then like a km ken h n iro and hlnck
She crushed our ribs In her Iron grasp,
Down went the Ouniberl-ind all a wrack.
With n sudden shudder of death
And the cannon's breath
For her dying gasp.
Next morn, na tho sun rose over the bay,
Still limited our flag nt the mainmast

Science, thy name Is adulteration I
Another terror has been added to exist
ence l y the revelations mndo by a trade
paper of the processes by which certain
manufacturers "fill' the sheets and
blankets with which they flood the mar
ket. We are told that after a Dieoe of

lution of zinc, snlphnte of magnesia
(oominouly kuowu as epsnm salts) and
water. This is called a sprinkler. A re
volving brush plays spray of these
noxious ingredients upon the cloth,
with the result that a 60 pound piece
after the operatiou weighs 1 ponnds
more than when it left the loom. At
the goods tiro sold by the pound, the ob
ject is evident.
But what abont the purchaser? A
pieoe rats op into ten pairs of sheets.
Each pair therefore contains three-quarters
of pound of moisture attracting
material. The results are appalling.
As soon as a wet day comes the sheet
beoome damp and the luckless wigbk
who sleeps between them is apt to con--tr.uot
a chill that may send him to the,
bourn whence no traveler returns.
Even if his suspicions are aroused and.
be boldly casts aside the sheets and .
wraps hinixelf In tfci blankets it may -avail
him nothing, for the blanket .
makers have learned the trick, and the .
same ill results may ensue.
Next we shall bear that the counter
pane makers are equally astnte, and
the timid sleeper may be driven to pro-,
vide himself with the woolen sleeping
bags that suggest travels in the farthest
north. The only advantage of these,
"filled" or heavily "sized" shoots.' and,
blankets is that they are death to in
