The invention com­ prises a rod with a device for holdiiig bait in connection with self-opening hooks which are closed and concealed at the points, but whkh are adapted when released to spring in opposite directions, the locking device being released by ter.- sioa of the line. When the lish is landed it may be readily released from the hook. W. W. PUSEY, of Odell, was pitching oat sheaves into the hopper of a self-feed­ ing steam thresher when a sheaf caught his watch chain and the watch and chain were both carried into the hopper with the sheaf. The power was/at once shut off and a search made, When fonnd in tthe carrier to the grain measure the Uvatch was running, the chain etill at­ tached, and a slight dent on the case was all the damage done. AMONG .the many good things by "Rambler," in Every Saturday, we find the following: "Th£ question is often asked 'Why is it that a woman in a shirt waist and belt may be admitted to a public dining room while a man in his shirt sleeves would b?: barred out?' In some hotels bloomers and knee breeches are ruled out** Woman has some rights denied to man, and one is the priceless right to dress comforta­ bly in hot weather. I hope she appre­ ciates her exclusive privilege." "A good newspaper man is sure to have staunch friends and strongenemies. jA paper so milk eyed and pigeon hearted Las to make no enemies, is not one that jmakes friends. Independence and the pourage to expose the acts of public men jmnkes enemies, but many a newspaper is loved for the enemies it has made." iiormt •tci'RsiON to the Drainage Canal and to Joliet, Tuesday, Sept. 10, via C. & N.

Ilaab re­ marked, with great emphasis, that teach­ ers, during school hours, should stand. The statement called out the most spir­ ited discission among the members of the institute. Many thought that such a rule falls little, if any, short of brutal- it y. It is but fair to Mr. Raab to say that his'statement is to bo interpreted liberally, and to bear in mind to all gen­ eral rules there are exceptions. Viewed in this light, the ex-Superintendent is strictly right. . As a rule a teacher bear? the same relation to his pupils that a speaker does to his audience. Suppose Webster, seated in a chair, and delivering his reply to Hayne. Can any one im­ agine that the speech would rank among the classic orations of all time. When the preacher wishes to move sinners to repentance, he delivers his exhortation standing. A lawyer rises as he addresses the court. A teacher has more control of his class when standing then while seated, lie is also certain to be more lively and energetic. Supt. Baab's remark was aimed at those who habitually fill a chair. Laziness and sluggishness in the teacher spreads rap­ idly among the the pupils. As is the teacher so is the school. I make a few quotations from the works of- leading writers. Mr. Patrick says: "When the class is seated for recit ation the teacher should take his place directly in front of the pupils, stand squarely upon his feet, without a text boo^, and ask one of the class to name the sabjpct of the lesson." Mr. Hughes, author of "Mistakes in Teaching," thus expresses the sensible and humane view of thej matter. "It ip better for the health to stand and move around as much as may be done without disturbing the class. Of course, if the teacher feels wearied he should sit down awhile. Ladies, especially, may be excus ed for doing so. g If there be a teacher who is a habitual sitter let him "go and sin no more." W. G. FOK rent. The Pekoysky Building, after Sept. 1st. Apply to H. C.

Mrs, Slater was bo.ru Sept., 1808, in Scotland, and,died Aug. 23dj 1895.

Henry Watterson says: "There was a rime when, without any invitation what­ ever, either written or verbal, without so much as an intimation of hospitality, you insisted upon giving ue the honor of your company, aud as it turned out, when we were ill prepared to receive you. It were a pity now that we are prepared now that the lid is off the pot aud the latch-string hangs outside the door, that you ihould r«fus» the happiuaas of enter­ taining you, not with "bloodi hands to Hospitable graves,' but as friends aud brothers, as fellow citizens who learned to value one another amid scenes that left no time for equivocation and tran­ sactions applying to liumau virtues the very highest tests." If you are going to accept this invita­ tion aud attend one of the largest en­ campments the Grand Army of the Re­ public h|f8 ever held, you should not tail to go *4a the M«mou Route.

Refined and perfect in its effects is Cald­ well's Syrup Pepsin, the sure cure for constipation, indigestion and sick head­ ache. Try a sample bottle (10 doses 10 cents) at Julia A. Story's. Since 1*78 there have been nine epi­ demics of dysentery in different parts of the country in which Chamberlain's Colic Cholera and Diarrhrea Remedy was used with perfect success. Dysentery, when epidemic, is almost as severe and danger­ ous as Asiatic cholera. Heretofore the best efforts of the most skilled physi­ cians have failed to check its ravages, t his remedy, however, hascured the most malignant cases, both of children and adults, and under the most trying condi­ tions, which proves it to be th« best medicine in the world for bowel com­ plaints.
