SCHOOL NOTES.
For Pedagogues, Pnplla and Patrons. The Chicago school board after a stormy session decided to abandon {the old slanting system of penmanship, and to introduce the vertical system.
Chicago has made another advance in her school system. Bath tubs have been placed in a number of buildings, and those boys and girls who have not been taught that ''cleanliness is next to Godliness," will be given practical experience in the bath tabs provided for that purpose. They do not propose that some children shall be so dirty as to contaminate others. Let our teachers make a note and enforce cleanliness as far as possible.
Indiana natural gas will be used to heat 14 of Chicago's big school buildings. It is piped and pumped from the Kokomo field.
John H. Brooks, formerly of Blueriver township, who has been in business in Terre Haute during the summer, has gone to Fontanet this State, where he will teach this winter.
Leon Luse, one of Buckcreek's excellent teachers, will have charge of the Castleton schools this winter.

Last Saturday the nine-year-old daughter of John Lewis had her skull fractured by being hit by a falling brace at the Randall building, which is being repaired on South State street. The girl had frequently been ordered away by the workmen, and they are not at fault for her injury. The skull was. depressed and fractured over a space larger than a silver dollar. A portion of the bone was removed, the rest raised and the wound dressed by Dr. C. K. Bruner. The girl is now recovering nicely.
It is claimed that linseed oil is a sure cure remedy for both hard and soft corns. If they are indurated and very painful, the relief it gives, in a short time, is very grateful. Bind on a soft rag saturated with the oil and continue to dampen it night and morning until the corn can be removed easily and without pain. Try it, and if uo cure no pay. But, if it cures, you can come up and give us the usual price charged by all corn doctors, 50 cents per corn.
