How Does This Strike You, Dear Teacher? There lias loen much speculation as to what will bo done in regard to tho two weeks of lost time at the Central school building, which is closed on account of diphtheria. The school board has not yet definitely decided what will be done but the teachers will certainly not be paid for the time thus lost. This lost time will be made up, however, probably by shortening the Christmas vacation ono week at tho Central building and doing away with the'spring vacation entirely. At tho other three schools things will move on as usual with the fortnight vacation at Christmas and the week vacation in the spring time. Just how this will strike the teachers and pupils of the Central building remains to be seen but it is pretty certain that a noise will go tip to which the weeping, wailing and'gnashing of teeth of which we have Biblical reference, will not be a circumstance.

Whitney Mockridge Concert. The following are some of tho numerous j)rose comments in regard to the merit of the stars which ill appear at tho Y. M. C. A, to-morrow evening to render one of their famous concerts:

Whitney Mockridge again won golden opinions and persistent applause as a tenor singer in the aria, "Cntus Amman,'* "Stabat Mater," and this high estimation was tided when he sang "If with all Your Hearts," by Mendelssohn.—St. Paul Globe.

Well merited were the thunders of applause which greeted Mrs. Mayollhodes after tho rendition of Menhelssohu's concert aria. She is an artist and the public acknowledged it.— (tiilvestun Tribune.

The powerful bass of Mr. Beresford bore the brunt of tho solo work. His voice was a revelation, being, deep, full, mellow, rich in every color of tone producible under greatest pressure, always controllable, always enjoyable.— Tojie-

HENS AS A STUDY.

A Protect Au*in*t Making Tlinn Imj More Kgg» Than They Want To. iCopyriKbtud by Leo & Shepard, Jioston. published by special nrranyement with tbcm.1

In our last issue we republished from an agricultural journal an article on feed for hens. We would like to say here that it is the duty of journals to publish all such information, however pertinent it may or may not be. That's the reason we printed the piece in question. We don't know whether the writer knew what he was about when ho brought forth the article, and wo don't care There was no choice with us. We submissively appropriated it just as we do all those matters which pertain to the house and farm department. But what we started out to do was to protest against recipes for making hens lay more eggs than nature designed they should

Not a day passes but somebody comes forward with system of diet which he has tested to his entire satisfaction, and which is adapted to every breed and temper of hen in existence. One man gives his fowls oats alone, and finds that they lay a fourth more eggs than they did when he fed them exclusively on corn. This statement fires np somebody to explain that he didn't know what a laying hen really was until he got to feeding his flock on corn alone. Heretofore he had dosed them with oats. Here's a decided fix apparently, but the next week the owner of a couple of hens in Kalamazoo modestly states in a card that years of careful experimenting have demonstrated beyond all cavil that oats and corn equally mixed will fire up the ambition, of any hen on the face of tho earth. So they go on in the matter of food. Then there is the man who advises lime and oyster shells to prevent the hens from laying soft shelled eggs. As a hen lays about two such eggs in the course of a year a couple of dollars' worth of lime judiciously fed tar her will prevent the loss and be money well expended. Then there is the man who advocates better ventilation. Hens are mighty sore on the subject of ventilation, as you may have noticed.

Another recommends an airtight roosting place, and still another advises shutting up the fowls all tho time, and is immediately confronted by a poulterer, who says that if they are not allowed to run loose you can't get eggs out of them any way. These things are what give agricultural journals their wonderful variety. But we protest against them. If any one understands a hen's business better than the hen itself we are prepared to listen to him, but until such a phenomenon appears we unqualifiedly refuse to republish hen recipes. A hen's stomach is an appalling mystery. Men who can translate the elegies of the most barbarous of ancient nations and give you the weight to an ounce of a square mile of atmosphere precipitately back down from tho analysis of a hen's stomach. An animal that can take down a wholo dishcloth at one gulp and regret that it wasn't a roll of stair carpet is not to be told what it shall eat
