Did you ever realize what a dangerous thing it is to clean house in the spring? A writer in a London medical Journal, the Lancet, Insists that spring cleaning has many possibilities for evil if not properly conducted. Dirt and dust are full of disease breeding germs; but, however dangerous these creatures may be when lodged in the woodwork or comfortably settled under tbe hall carpet, tbey are much more ferocious, this writer insist. if stirred up aud irritated and sent flying through, the air. If we can't keep our bouses clean as we go we had better let them stay dirty. This writer's rule is to "let sleeping germs lie." What a house would look like after forty years of total abstinence from spring cleaning we leave to our women readers to judge. Yet we venture the assertion that there is one creature who would find the situation entirely satisactcry. It dislikes tbe annual cleaning ceremony, it hates to eat cold suppers off the kitchen table, and beating carpets Is to it an abomination. It will doubtless make capital out of the Englishman's warping against the perils of housccleauing. Book of the Dead. The Book of tbe Dend is a most remarkable literary relic of ancient ' Egypt, of uncertain date and origin, but well known before the kings of ( the first dynasty. Probably the col lected work of many minds in different ages, it was regarded as tbe work of the god Tboth and therefore of divine authority, dealing mainly with tbe dead and their future state. Some ! of its texts, prayers, hymns and ritual were used by tbe predynastle priests, and parts of the book are said to belong to a period fifty centuries before the Christian era. Copies of it were i placed In the tombs, and texts from it were inscribed on coffins to preserve the dead from dangers and to direct them to tbe boat of Ra on their way to the hull of Osiris, which was the goal desired. Tbe oldest existing papyrus copy of the book was written for "Xu. the son of the overseer of the house of the overseer of tbe seal Amenbetep and of the lady of the bouse Senseneb" and probably belongs to tbe early part of tbe eighteenth dynasty. A Fateful Breach of Etiquette. Under tbe third empire in France Saiute-Beuve brought disgrace upon himself because t breakfast at the Tuileries he carelessly opened bis nankin and placed It over bis two knees. To this be added the crime of cutting bis epg in two at the middle. Court etiquette prescribed tbst tbe half folded napkin should lie on tbe left knee and the top of tbe egg was to be merely broken with the edge of tbe spoon and drained with tbe tip of tbe spoon. For bis failings ia these respects Snlnte-Beuve's nam was stricken off tbe Imperial visiting list, London Chronicle.

PRIZE POSTER IS THING OF BEAUTY

Mrs. Eggemeyer's Painting Compares With the Best In the Country. OTHER DESIGNS ARE GOOD THOSE OF CHARLES SINEX AND AN INDIANAPOLIS ARTIST WERE APPROPRIATE AND WORTHY OF MENTION. The Fall Festival poster offerings In the contest, which are on display in the office of the secretary of the Y. M. B. C. are attracting a great deal of comment. Honorable mention was given poster No. 3 by the executive committee of the Young Men s Business Club. The artist is unknown. It was 6ent from Indianapolis and no name was signed. It is a beautiful design and represents a girl in the foreground extending the band of welcome to a busy prosperous city in the background, while underneath and, to the left is printed "A Greater Richmond." The prise winner by Mrs. Elmer Eggemeyer compares most favorably with the fall festival posters of larger cities it is said. The water coloring is magnificent. The picture is of a beautiful girl seated in a big arm chair. Her dress is of a rich yellow. On one side of the chair, but more in the background is the figure of a day laborer, evidently representing a foundryman, bared to the waist. On the other side is the figure of a farmer. The frieze is a row of ears of corn in the husks. On the frieze is inscribed "Richmond Fall Festival," and directly underneath "100O."The girl is holding an olive wreath in her right hand from which a ribbon is streaming bearing the inscription, "Panic Proof City."' Underneath the poster Is printed October 6. 7 and 8. The directors of the Young Men's Business club decided at their meeting last night to have Richmond, Ind., printed just above the date. J. A. Spekenhier will go to Cincinnati within tbe next few days to have lithographs made of the poster. It is said they will be about the size as those of last year. The price has not yet been decided upon. - The work of Charles SJnex, of No. 2 hose house, is also deserving of mention. His poster represented a girl stroking a horse's bead, while all arond the border were evidences f prosperity. It was very well and neatly done. STUMP TEACHERS T Unable to Answer Questions Asked by Board and Superintendent Protests. IT SOUNDS LIKE SCHOOL PEDAGOGUES HAVE THEIR TROUBLES AS WELL AS PUPILS, SO OF COURSE THEY MUST GET EVEN. County Superintendent Charles Jordan is much exercised because of the questions in English literature that are being propounded to aspirants for positions as teachers who take the regular county examinations. Mr. Jordan believes that an Injustice is being done in many of tbe questions and savs that a much greater percent of the failures is caused by the questions in English than any other of tbe subjects listed for examination. As an example he cites the quesThe Great

tions in the examination last Satur day, one of which asked for the author of "Drink to Me Only With Tilne Eyes." So far Mr. Jordan has found no correct answer to the question. The superintendent believes that It la not unusual that no one of the fifty applicants should know that Ben Johnson wrote the sonnet which has been put to music. According to the present plan the members of the state board ask various college professors over the state to submit Questions and as a conse quence these questions are often such ! that members of the advanced classes in the colleges are not able to answer them.
