School.

is the new school house, is it?"

inquired Miss Alice Ray, the "new teacher," as the farmer's plodding little team passed by a little white house standing endwise to the rood, inclosed in a rather dilapidated fence. •'Yes, that's where you'll bold forth, remarked Uncle Zeke Woodburn, "but I'm afeered you wont holdout long, fur we've got the toughest set of boys in the State," and Uncle Zske gave a aind of cackirbg little laugh a* be thought of the timid, demure little damsel at his side controlling the boys of Bear Creek School. "But don't tbe directors expel them "when tbey are beyond the control of the teacber?''asked A'ice, her heart beginning to sink at tbe prospect before her. "Expel 'em no, we never exp€l nobody if a teacher can't boss the school we just let it boss him it ain't our tight, and the school here generally bosses the teacher, and thar's been some pretty good men licked in that school-bouse by tbe boys." '•I did not know the school was so unruly," said poor Alice, wishing heartily that she had hired outas a washerwoman instead of trying to teach the savages of Bear Creek. "Ob. well, mebbe it won't be so bad this winter tbar's Jim Turner, bes one of tbe toughest of 'em he'll be 21 in a month, and you'll get rid of him but tbar's the Brindley boys, they're mighty nigh as bad."

Poor Alice listened with a sinking heart. The cold, bard duties before her •were dreary enough at best but to go alone and unknown into a strange neighborhood to teach her first school, and to be met at the outset by such dark prophecies, made her feel homeless indeed. She was naturally a timid, shrinking little tbiug, and if she possessed anywhere on the whole broad earth a roof to shelter her she would have turned back from Bear Creek school even then. Her mother had died when she was 14, and she had kept house •for her father two years, when he died, letting her all alone. Before he died he advised her to expend the little sum he would be able to leave her iu litting herself for a teacher, and Alice bad fulfilled his directions so literally that when she fhad completed her course of study at the normal school sho had hardly $10 left, and when stie paid Uncle Zeke for hauling her and her little trunk from tbe nearest railroad town to the district •where she was to teach, she had but $5 left.

morning as she started for

the school house she felt as if she was going to the scallbld. Her course of redagogics in the normal institute had Included no such a problem as this school promised to be, and if it were not for •very shame she would have given her single 95 bill to any one to take her back to tbe railroad and pay ber iare to L., the town whens she had attended school.

When she arrived at the school-house about twenty or thirty pupils grouped around talking, but a spell of silence fell upon them as she walked up and saluted them with a "good morning" which was uiore like tbe chirp of a frightened bird than auytbiug else. As she unlocked tho door aud entered what she had already begun to regard as a chamber of torture, two or three slowly followed her into the room, and deposited their books upon the whittled desks, took seats, and tixfd their eyes, upon her with a stare that did not help to strengthen her nerves.

All the rules and regulations of her "Theory and Practice of Opening School Upon the First Day" seemed to vanish and leave her head wtairliug in diwy helplessness. She tried to think of some cheerful remark, but her brain refused to form tho thought end her tongue clove to tho roof of her mouth. She «ould see in the faces of her pupils, nio»»t of whom were now in the school room, that they were aware of her fright and eujoyed it thoroughly. By a strong effort she partially recovered herself and bravely resisted the temptation to lean her head on the desk and have a good crv. She *elt that she must do something or faint, so she rang the bell, though it lacked fifteen minutes to 9. She begau taking down the names and ages of ber pupils, and by tbe time this waa completed she began to feel mora at ease. She then began examining the pupils in the different branches in order to assign tbom to their proper classes. i8h« had finished the examination in all the branches except the advanced reading class, which was principally composed of grown girls and yonng men, among them was tbe terrible Jim Turner, of whom she bad been warned.

Several of the members of the class had read, and it was now the turn of Moses Bradley, a huge, heavy-set, with small, malicious eyes and a general air of rottanisin. When be was called upon to read he did not rise from his seat, but began to read in a thick, indistinct voice from a book hidden in his lap. "Mr. Bradley, will you please stand op when you read asked Alice. "I can read Just as well setUn down, replied tbe fellow with a dogged air. "But it hi one of the roles in a reading rlass to stand up to road," said Alice, ber heart quaking with fear as she foresaw the incipient rebellion. "I reckon you will have to make a new rule for me then," impudently answered Mow, glancing sideways at his companions with a grin of triumph. "it you do not obey me I shall be obliged to punish you,5 said Alice brave !y, though she could scarcely stand up. «I guess all the punishtsentyou could do wouldn't break any of my bones," replied the ruffian, leering at bar impudently. "But I can

I Alice could have kissed her yonng champion for very gratitude, bat she mastered all the dignity she could command, and said "Mr. Turner, I cannot allow yon to interfere in the management of my school take yonr seat."

Tbe youth obeyed without a word, but kept (N eve on Mose, as if watching for anv delinquency. After this little episode tbe exercises proceeded without interruption till noon.

Alice bad no appetite for dinner. She leaned her throbbing bead upon tbe desk and wondered wearily how long she could endure this.

Sbe was aroused by one of the little girls running up to ber, exclaiming, Teacher, teacher, the big boys are lighting She followed the child, exclaiming, "Ob, why did I overcome into such •a den of wild beasts?" At the rear of tbe school house stood Jim Tnrner en gaged in a hand-to band combat with

Mose Bradley and his two brothers, both of whom were grown. As Alice stepped around tbe corner Jim sent Mose reeling to the earth and then turned like a lion upon bis two remaining assailants. They rushed at him from two sides, but Jim was as active as a panther, and Bill Bradley fell as if shot, from a left handed blow, and his brother Tom followed him in an instant. By this time Mose had secured a ball bat and rushed upon Jim, but tbe latter avaded the blow and wrenching the bat from bis hand knocked Mose headlong with a blow of his flst.

As tho discomfited trio arose Jim laughed lightly and asked tbem "how tbey liked it as far as they had got,"

Slose

icked up tho bat he had taken from ana called out, "Come on, boys, let's have a game of ball."

The combat ended so quickly that Alice had no chance to interfere, but sbe felt that it would not do to let this open violation of school rules paps unpunisa ed, so she rang the bell. When the pupils were assembled sbe called tbe culprits up to the desk, and asked what the fight was about and who began it. The Bradleys stood su!len and silent, but Jim answerd, "I would rather not tell what it was about, but I began it by knocking Mose Bradley down." Alice knew tbe fight was the result of Jim espousal of her cause in the reading class and

her

voice faltered as she said: "Then

I shall have to punish you hold out your hand." Jim obeyed ber instantly. She took up the ruler with a trembling hand and began tbe punishment. Jim's face never changed a muscle. The look upon it was one of quiet obedience in which there was no trace of either bravado or sullenness. As Alice iuflicted the blows upon the hand so quietly held out to her, the thought rushed upon her mind that she was smiting tbe only hand that had been raised to befriend her in that lawless region.

Her face grew pale, the blows fell falteringly, tho tears began to run down ber cheeks, the ruler fell from ber hand, she sank into her seat, buried her face in her hands, and burst into a storm of sobs. _.

Then Jim's countenance changed. His lips quivered, be dashed his band acfoss his eyes to clear them of unnatural dimness, and tbe great lump in his throat seemed to choke him. A chuckle from Mose Bradley recalled his self-posses-sion, however, and be took a step or two toward tbe latter with eyes that fairly blazed with hot indignation.

Mose rapidly retreated a step or two, and his chuckle did an untimely death, and for a full minute silence resigned over tbe school room. At -last Alice raised her bead and in a broken voice dismissed the pupils to the playground.

As tbe children passed out she beard some one say, "So you got a whipping after all, Jim," and Jim's reply, "Yes, and I got enough to pass some of it around if anybody is anxious about it."

At 1 o'clock Alice rang the bell with a feeling of utter despair but no school ever moved more smoothly than did her school that afternoon. Quiet obedience, study, good lessons, and respectful attention were universal. But Alice bad determined to quit the school she felt as if she would rather be the poorest washerwoman than to be badgered, bullied, and tortured for months at a time by a set of brutal ruffians, whose parents employed her for the sole purpose of enduring this martyrdom.

So when

Alice

locked the school house

door that evening it was with a mingled feeling of relief and humiliation that she started to offer her resignation to the directors. As she left tho school house she saw Jim Turner a few yards ahead of her walking rapidly toward home. She called his name, and he stopped and respectfully waited until she had overtaken him. "Mr. Turner," she said, "I am going away in the morning, and I wish to thank you for your brave defense of me at the school to-day, and I ask your forgiveness for the punishment 1 so unjustly inflicted on you," and in her earnestness Alice held out her little trembling hand, and Jim instantly grasped it. "I have nothing to forgive," said he "you could not do otherwiseand neither could 1 but you are surely not intending to quit the school?" "Yes," answered Alice, "I would rather die than pass through three months of such scenes as I have to-day." "But you will have no more trouble there is no one in the school that would be at all likely to give you trouble, except the Bradley boys, and as long as I am there I will answer for their good behavior." ...

At last Jim's eloquence prevailed, and Alice finally consented to teach a week longer, and at the end of that time she decidea to stay, for never did a school move along more smoothly. At her request Jim was allowed to remain during tbe term, and as soon as it closed he went to college.

Alice taught the Bear Creek school successfully for three years, but in ihe end Uncle Soke's prediction waa verified, for Jim Turner came back and broke up the school.

in half a minute, and I'll do it if .you don't stand op and read as the teacher asked vou to," said a voice at the other •ad of tha class, and Alice looked in that direction and saw Jim Turner step from the class and facft the astonished MOM.

Moae'a insolent manner abated in an instant, hi* face turned pale, and be muttered something about not being "bnssnl bv other boys," but he stood fp he waa "commanded.

THE HOME CIRCLE.

HOME GOVERNMKNT.

No trait of character is more valuable to a woman than the possession of a sweet'temper. Home can never be happy without it. It is like tbe flowers that spring up in our pathway, reviving and cheering us. Let a man go home at night, wearied and worn by the toils of tbe day, and how soothing is a word dictated by a good disposition, it is sunshine falling on his heart. He is happy, andi tbe cares of life are forgotten.

EVILS OF GOSSIP.

Can the evil wrought by gossip be estimated? We think not. A wise woman can scarcely say too little in company if the conversation trenches in the least on scandal. Many a social, noble minded woman has been obliged to withdraw herself from a neighborhood intimace, which would have been pleasant otherwise, because her remarks are returned by some idle tale, so perverted as to make her doubt the existence of genuine friendship, and accept loneliness for the sake of safety it brought. You say we must talk4'aboutsomething." Yes, and through that very fact we see a remedy for tbe evil, to so thoroughly interest ourselves in other and better things that we find no space for our neighbor affairs. Let us talk of our work, our homes, our house plants, our books, or our babies. Let us teach our eyes to find

HONEY AS A FOOD.

A correspondent who evidently has a "sweet tooth" sends us the following regarding honey as a food: "It is a common expression that honey Is a luxury having nothing to do with the life giving principle. This is an error—honey is food iu one of its most concentrated forms. True it does not add so much to the growth of muscles as does beefsteak, but it does impart other properties no less necessary to health and vigorous, physical and intellectual action. It gives warmth to the system, arouses nervous energy, and gives vigor to all the vital .functions. To the laborer it gives strength—to the business man, mental force. Its effects are not like ordinary stimulants, such as spirits, etc., but it produces a healthy action, the result of which are pleasing and permanent—a sweet disposition and a bright intellect.

Thousands and tens of thousands of children are dying all around us, who, because their ever-developing nature deind eagerly "candles'' "syrup"'of modern times. Iftbesecould be fed on honey instead, tbey would develop and grow up into healthy men and women.

Pure honey shonld always be freshly used in every family. Honey eaten upon wheat btead is very beneficial to health."

TERKE HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING- MAIL

THE "WHEEL HORSE."

There is a wheel horse in every family —some one who takes the load on all occasions. It may be the older daughter, possibly the father but generally it is tbe mother. Extra company, sickness, gives her'a heavy increase of the burden she is always carrying. Even summer vacations bring less rest and recreation to her than tbe others of the lamilj'. I ouce heard a husband say: "My wifetakes her sewing-machine into the country, and has a good time doing up the fall sewing." At the time I did not appreciate the entrrmity of the thiug but it has rankled in my memory, and appears to me now an outrage.

Woman's work is never done. But, because it is never done, she needs resting times. Every night the heavy truck is turned up tbe wheel horse is put into the stable, and labor and care are dismissed till the morrow. The thrills of the household van cannot be turned up at night and the tired housemother cannot go into a quiet stable for reposo. Sbe goes to sleep to-night feeling the pressure of to-morrow. She must keep an eye ready to open at any moment to answer the need of children, and open both eyes bright and early to see the machinery well started for anew day.

There is never- any time that seems convenient for the mother of little children to leave home even for a day but with a little kindly help from her husband, and a little resolution in herself, she may go, and be so much the better for it that the benefit will overflow from her into the whole household. She will bring home some new idea, and will work with tbe enthusiasm that comes from afresh heart.

TO THE NEWLY WEDDED. Rev. John Hall, D. D.,

made the fol

lowing very sensible remarks to some young married folks a few days ago:

''It is good for tbe nrfwly married, as a rule, to begin by themselves, together, without the officious direction of others, however well meaning and it is good, if possible, to be in a home, not a board-ing-house nor a hotel. It may be 'love in a cottage,' aud the cottage may be humble but it is commonly better adapted to the growth of a true, pure, simple life, than-'rooms' in one of those nonmilitary barracks which the needs of our great cities are supposed to demand. A 'mess-table'is doubtless proper for the officers of a regiment or a group of monks. The passengers of a train or an ocean steamer of course can properly dine together but for young married people it is best that they should-live together, their door closing put the world that tbey should be all in all, under God, to each other that the young wife should not be pursued by calculations as to how she looks to a hundred spectators that he and she Bhould plan together, wisely adapt their modes and habits of life to means and prospects, always remembering that it is comparatively easy to go up but exceedingly difficult to descend gracefully. We do not over-rate the oetry of the 'lowly cottage we are istinctly sensible of the difficulty of reading the 'register' or the 'stove' into the versification of the 'fireside,'or of the heroic watch-ward, pro aris etfocis, for altars and hearths. We have read, of course, of

Home-made pop that will not foam, And home-made dishes that drive one from home,' but we adhere to the conviction that a modest, serf-contained dwelling is morally more healthy, more conducive to permanent happiness, more likely to have its 'grace beiore meat,' its family altar and its practical prudence in management, than the 'nicest apartments'in the most attractive hotel. How hard it has been, in many cases, to make the transition from the dishes of a French cook, at a salary of five thousand a year, to the more modest table of a wife's own arranging! Better to begin at the beginning, and to conquer the prosaic difficulties of life while the poetiy of early love is still real, and while the later cares aud anxieties of life are not yet pressing, than to be forced to the task when other and inevitable burdens have to be carried." .]

BENEFIT OF LEMONADE, A Most people know tbe benefit of lemonade before breakfast, but few know that it is more than doubled, by taking another at night, also. The way to get the better of the bilious system without blue pills or quinine, is to take the juice of one, two or three lemons, as appetite craves, iu as muth ice-water as makes it pleasant to drink without sugar, before going to bed. In the morning, on rising, at least a half an hour before breakfast, take the juice of one lemon in a goblet of water. This will clear the pystem of humor and bile with efficacy, without any of the weakening effects of colomel or Congress water. People should not irritate the stomach by eating lemons clear the powerful acid of the juice, which is always most corrosive, invariably produces inflammation after awhile, but properly diluted, so that it does not burn or draw the tlfroat, it does its medical work Withtftat hattn, and when the stomach is clear of food, has abundant opportunity to work over tbe system thoroughly. So says a reliable medical authority

CHILDREN'S CHATTER,

George, a lad of five fleeting summers, bad been quiet for five miuutes. "What are you thinking of, Georgia asked bis mother. "Ob, 'bout old times, 1 doss!"

John, at the age of six years, had mastered tbe primuier, thanks to the care and preservance of bis mother. He could read—'"fhia is a cat," "See the dog chase the cat," and so on, very nicely. When he went to school for the first time, teacher asked: "Can you read, Johnie?" The little fellow stood amazed for a moment, and then exclaimed: "Hain't you got a cheek

A little boy was asked by tb'e schoolmistress what was the meaning of tbe word "responsibility." The boy hesitated a moment, and then replied: "When a boy has only oue suspender button on bis pants, and he has to climb up a tree at a picnic, theu there is a great deal of responsibility on that remaining suspender button, for if it were to fly off he would—"Hush!

exclaimed the teacher. A iboy fell from the topmost limb of a tree, and waa carried, in an insensible condition, into tbe bouse. The mother watched at bis bedside through many weary hours.

A Cleveland Sunday school teacher was using familiar subjects to illustrate different virtues. Among others sbe recommended patience and perseverance. ''These are great virtues," said sbe aud should be cultivated by all people, little and big. It is said that time, patience and perseverance will accomplish all things. Now, yon have all made molasses candy, I have no doubt, but to make molasses candy you most have time, patience and perseverance, or yon will never succeed.'

Hair Renewer.

Seldom does a popular remedy win snch a Strong hold upon the public confidence as has HALL'S HAJR RENEWKH. The cases in which it has accomplished a complete restoration of color to the hair, and vigorous health to th« Ccalp, are innumerable.

Old pfeople like it for its wonderful power to restore to their whitening locks their original color aud beauty. Middle-aged people like it because it prevents them from getting bald, keeps dandruff away, and makes tbe hair grow thick and strong. Young ladies like it as a dressing because it gives tbe hair a beautiful glossy lustre, and enables them to dress it in whatever form J»ey wish. Thus it is the favorite of all, aa-1 it has become so simply because it dlsr npoints no one.
