Anon, with velvet foot and Tarquin strides, Subtle Grimalkin to his quarry gildes—Grimalkin grim, that slew the fierce roent. Whose tooth insidious Johann's ackcloth rent, Let me now the deep mouthed carine foe assault That vexed avenger of the stolen malt, Stored in the hallowed precincts of the hall That rose complete at Jack's creative call, Here stalks impetuous Cow with crumpled horn. Whereon the exercebating hound was torn. Who bayed the feline murdrous beast that slew The rat predacous whose keen fang ran through The textile fibers that involved the grain That lay in Hau's inviolate domain. Here walks forlorn the damsel crowned with rue, Lactiferous spoils from vaccine dugs who drew drew Of that corniculate beast whose torturous horn Tossed to the clouds in fierce vindictive scorn, The harrowing hound whose breggart bark and stir Arched the lithe spine and reared the indignant fur Of Puss, that with verminicidal claw Struck the wierd Rat in whose insatiate maw Lay reeking malt that erst in Ivan's courts we saw.

Now the spring has come and the young man's thoughts turn to what style of hair cut he will get, go to Andy Reed's. THE Kansas City Times in speaking of the Missouri and Kansas State Universities says editorially: Wear Abe Levy's "Otego" collar, it is E and W's latest. Take for instance a Kansas or Missouri state teacher's association at which there are a thousand or twelve hundred teachers from all parts of the state present; it is before such a body and with them that the president of a state university can exert the greatest influence. If he be a taking man, he can put all these teachers at work in favor of his school in their respective localities and among their patrons and pupils. He puts himself at once in elbow touch with all the lower grades of preparatory schools in the state, and he reaches out even into the country schools where some ambitious teachers live. Let the president be a distant, unapproachable man, one who, on such occasions communes within himself, and he repels and blocks up the currents of communication. A new man, a stranger so to speak, always feels his way at first and in no other place is this more necessary than before an audience of critical teachers. Consequently the leading educators of a state will predict from the beginning whether a man will succeed or fail in any given position. They appear to know intuitively whether a man has such qualities as will insure success just as well as members of the bar will know which of their brethren will make the best judges. The regents of Kansas and the curators of Missouri might take the teachers and others personally engaged in education into counsel with a prospect of profit. The universities are parts of public school systems and the other practical educators could give instructive hints as to the fitness of nominations for chancellor and president. How does this suit the President of the National Teachers Association? Special inducements to students 50c. for one-half dozen shave tickets. Tickets sold to students only. 1017 Mass. St. P.C.KEBBLE.
