No schoolmaster ought to feel less than this, that every child should twine round about him as the morning glory around its support. Woe is me! I never was happy at school. I hated it with a sincere, genuine, unmistakable hatred, and I do not know but I do yet. The law of making men happy ought nowhere else to be more emphatically inculcated. I think there is no wrong that is so intolerably mean as that by which public men will screw down to the starvation point men and women that are trying to make their living as teachers. If there be one place where we ought to induce people to make a life impression, it is the school. The salaries should be a premium to make it perpetual. Instead of that, we are constantly having raw material."

Energy Always Wins. ATLANTA, ILL., MARCH 6, 1892 Queen City Silver and Nickel Plating Co., East St. Louis, Ills. GENTS:-The Queen Plater beats anything I ever saw to make money. When I received it, I put in a brass ring to test it; and to my suprise it was nicely silverplated in five minutes. I made $29.40 the first week and $47.85 the second week plating jewelry and tableware. At the end of the first month, I had $197.45 clear profit. I now get all the knives, forks, spoons and jewelry one person can plate, without going from home. I will let my son use the Plater I now have at home, and I am going out to sell Platers. I sold three to-day, at $10.00 each, and did some plating besides. I sent $20 to-day for four more Platers. I believe any enterprising person can make a grand success of this business. Very respectfully, J. C. BALDWIN. If you want to make more clear money than you ever made in your life, send for circulars and pride of the Queen Plater; for gold, silver. nickel, copper and brass plating, can be used by any one. Plates beautiful and equal to the finest new work. Every class of goods, or metals, $20 a day can easily be made.
