AMUSING STORY OF A TEACHER.

BY REV. A. D. MAYO.

At the age ol Blxteeu, before we had our "roundabout®," we contracted to "kOAp school," in District No. Five, for twelve dollars per month and "boarding round." We knew very well the little red school house, standing at the exact center of the district on the borders of a inlgbty swamp, the farmhouses scattered about the hills, and we also knew the nuisance of that particular school, a squad of half a dozen rough fellows who bad emerged into "tail coats," and would hardly relish the discipline of a boy pedagogue in a roundabout.

After tne first flush of elation at our election, the reflection came baok, like a return wave of ice water, that, in all human probability, ere our seventeenth birthday should dawn, we should be seen vanishing, bead foremost, out of the scboolnouse window, into a big snowdrift, propelled by class No. One of big boys. In our anxiety we applied to "Aunt Anna," the general oracle of the household. Aunt Anna was a stalwart maiden of sixty summers, aizantic in proportions, but everv inch alaav in her dear old heart. She had nursed half the chlldreu in town through the measles, mumps and chicken pox, and was the main stay in all family emergencies. There were sly rumors that the occasional attack of "fidgets," which overcame the good old lady at night, had some relation to a mysterious black bottle which she always carried in her work bag but Aunt Anna, plus the "fidgets," was worth a regiment of ordinary femlnines for the homemade uses of country life. "Well, now, you are really going to keep school in District No. Five," said Aunt Anna, smoothing down her big checked apron and raising her spectacles good, long look at the incipient at the opposite corner

for a

rue, seati

of the fireplace. Yes, Aunt Anna, I have promised to keep that school, but, between you and me, I am dreadfully afraid to tackle that crowd of boys. Yon know what a rough set they are, and one of them has already 'given out.' that there will be no board wanted in District No. Five after the first week." "That's a serious matter. Now let's see if we can't think of something to help you. Now. you see, I don't know anything about book larnin'. No doubt

frou

can cipher that back seat of boys nto the middle of next week. But they can fling you over the roof of the school house in a jiffy, if they have a mind to. I know every family in the district. I've nussed in every house, and taken the measure of every youngster that will come to that school. There's one thing in your favor.

Now, mind what I tell you do yon go right to work aud gain the affections of them ten great galls, and they'll manage tbe great boys, while you keep school."

That sounded well and armed with this panacea against rebellion, we opened school the Monday after Thanksgiving.was a rough looking set on the high seats—that row of villainous looking fellows, any of them big enough to throw me over into the big swamp with one hand.

Happily our first boarding plae* was the home of two of tbe "great gals." Never did we "lay ourselves out" to gain the good graces of the lovely sex as during that first week of that boarding round. We rode on the front of tbe sled with tbe tallest girl, played checkers with tbe second, got all snarled up In a "cat's cradle" with tbe pretty visiting cousin, and put in a word of explanation for tbe ''hard sums" of all, in the long evenings at home.

The first crisis came at the beginning of tbe seoond week, when a big lout "saueed" tbe new schoolmaster. Somehow, it crushed us, and for a minute the schoolroom swam round, and the idea of seising our fur cap and making for home flitted across our vision. |ust then the patter of a light footstep was beard down the long slope ofjthe narrow aisle leading up to the seat of the "ten great gals." Hie tallest glided down, ostensibly to ask the explanation of a bard si\ai, but, as we leaned over the slate, with a dimness in our eye*, we beard a whisper In our earn: "Don't be cast down we girls will shame that mi of boys into good mannera before anovber week,"

Alight broke in wo were gaining the "affections of tbe tan great gals."

woman, who loved as as her own son. A big fire in tbe parlor greeted oar arrival, and a supper fit for the parson himself. After tea our hostess appeared in ber brat black silk, In her hand a mighty oak *4 ruler," and sat down before us with tbe air of a Minerva: "Now, matters have come to a point in yonr school yon have been trying to govern that crowd of rascally boy* by

I 1^

love, but tbat has come to an end. Tomorrow they'll try to put you out. Take this ruler, and don't come home to-mor-row night unless yon have used it up over tbe bead and shoulders of somebody."

Tuere was no appeal fram that. A greater thau the whole class ol "great gals" had spoken, and we felt in our soul tbat fate was standing at the school* house door.

Were we endowed with tbe epie rage ol a fciomer or a Pope, we might possibly depict tbe exciting scenes of the coming day. Mow the ugliest loafer, in alrockooat, kicked in the door at recess how, when the trembling young master asked "who did that?" the big boor lifted his thumb to his nose, ana executed that significant gyration with tbe little finger which would make a savage of St. John himself how, fired with the courage of despair, and a vision of our farmhouse Minerva, we seized tbe big oak ruler, rushed up the inclined plane, upsetting several small children on the way, plunged at the throat of the Insolent scoundrel, tore off the collar of his frock coat, snaked him down the area before the fireplace, and beat him over the head and shoulders till he roared for mercy bow, at intervals, he cast a glance up at his accomplices, and took in the situation—the "ten great gals" had spiked the guns of all but this wretch, who slunk and begged under our hands—how we wound up with an eloquent address, and gave tbe whipped ruffian his hat, with instructions to go home how his sensible father took off what remained of his dilapidated frock coat, and trounoed him till he veiled again, and sent him to school the following day with a compliment to the plucky young master all this might be sung in heroic verse.

But, il the truth were known, it was not we, but the "great ten gals" that did the business. They had so demoralized the attacking columns by the magic ol their charms, that only one had the heart to defy the little master, and he dared not liit his band when the day of battle came. And from tbat day we crowned dear old Aunt Anna prophetess of love.

Gain tbe affections of the "ten great gals" in jour schoolroom, "and all things shall work together for good."

RAILROAD 1 RAIN YARNS.

A wealthy old miscreant in Iowa, a farmer, did not fence his land properly, yet grumbled when his cattle were killed. The railroad beat him in tbe courts, and he treasured up the hardest feelings against tbe company. One day a rail was tied across the track near the old farmer's land, and the first passener train that came along was wrecked, twas believed at the time that the farmer tied the rail aeross the traak. Many persons were killed and all the bodies bnt tbat of an aged woman were identified. The first day after the accident tbe old farmer did not go to the town wherein tbe body awaited burial, but on tbe following morning he visited the postoffloe, and reoeived word tbat his sister was coming on from the East to visit him. Heruslied to tbe morgue and identified the body of the unknown lady ai tbat of his sister. In less than a year he became a maniac, and in his ravings admitted tbat he had wrecked the train.

A stupid lamb was seen to run between the wheels of a rapidly moviiig locomotlvo near Sanbury. The engineer suffered a tender hearted ant snake if he oould back over tbe road unfortunate lamb.

be saw the lamb leap from tbe track behind tbe last car and run off wagging its tail. It had passed under all the cars and was uninjured.

A Hudson River engineer killed a man tbat suddenly stepped in front of bis engine. He had been watching the man and saw his face as he crossed over tbe track and walked into the engine. man was blind. Tbe engineer caught a glimpee of the victim's face as he was struck. His expression was one of terror. His scream was beard above tbe pounding of the engine. Tbe sight haunted tbe engineer until he quit tbe business. Every night at that spot that scene was re-enacted. He took a day train, but at noon the apparition haunted tbe spot. He even went into the service of another company, yet at unexpected moments the spectre of tbe blind man seemed to start up in tbe track, to throw his arms over his head wildly, to scream, and to be crushed under the lomotive. It was more than the engineer could bear.

There is narrated a weird story about an apparition of a train on the Hudson River railroad. It is said that there are ntaoy trackmen and laborers along tbe Hndson River railroad, who pretend to have seen the spectacle. The tale is about a mystic counterpart of the funeral train tbat bore Abraham Lincoln's remains to the West. The actual and substantial train passed over tbe road on a certain day in April, 1865. The car that contained the President's remains was heavily draped. It is said that on tbat night, every year, all tbe train men who are on tbe roaa during a certain hour (that varies in different subdlvls* ions of the road) hear and see and leel the spectre train rush by them. It sounds hrllow and awful. Its lights are ellow, pale and funereal. Its train ands and passengers are sepulchral figure*. It looks like the outline of a train, yet every detail is perfect. Those who have seen it say, though they felt tbat it was only a vision, that a man could walk through it if be dared, or throw a atone through it yet It seems perfect In everything but substantialness. It even carries with it a whirl of wind as test train* do, but It Is a cold, clammy, 'gravelike atmosphere, all its own. As It passes auothor train the shriek of its whistle and clang of its bell strike terror to the hearts of those that hear them.

CHINESE PROVERBS.

Ambition is like hunting for fleas. A hasty man drinks his tea with a fork.

A little scandal is to tea what an olive is to wine. A wise man at court la like a mermaid in a ball-room.

Shave with a file if you like, but don't blame the rator. A disobedient son Is a bad bull lied to bis tether's pig-tail.

Teaching a women to scandal is like teaching a kettle to boil. Be not toojprodlgal the kettle When too full puts out tbe fire.

Carrying a peaoock on your head does not make you a nobleman.
