Austin, Texas, December 10,
1804. Hon. R. L. 8t«nn<»,Weath-
erford, Texas. Dear Sir:—Re-
plying to year letter of the 7th
inst., I beg to say that chapter
CX, page 172, Laws of the 28th
Legislature, amending Art.
9073d R. 8., fixes the dates for
examinations for the teachers’
certificates, and makes no pro
virion for any special examina
lions for this purpose. The law
nowhere makes provision for
special examination. Under ex-
isting conditions, even if a spec
ial examination oould be lawfully
■iven, it should be entirely im
iraoticable if not impossible to
;ive special examinations. Un
er the laws as existing, there are
ye examinations during the
year for teachers’ oertifioate—
he regular oounty examinations
in May, September, and Deoem
ber, and the two Summer Normal
examinations, and if the teaohers
would only take proper notice of
these provisions of the law, am
pie provision has been made for
hem to prooure certificates a;
the regular examinations. After
every examination there are very
many applications from teaohers
as well as from County Superin
tendents asking for special ex
aminations, because certain
teachers for some reason or an
other oould not and did not take
the regular examinntion.
If the Superintendent should
give a special examination to any
one of the numerous applicants
tie could not fairly refuse to com
>ly with the requests sent in by
all of them, and his entire time
would be taken up in giving ex
aminations to teaohers, and there
would be no reason for the law
wich fixes to dates of all exami-
nations at certain specified times.
Regretting my inability either to
authorize or to prepare the spec-
ial examination suggested by
you, I am, Yours faithfully,
Arthur Lefevre,

corrected; uncharitable words,
not deeds wrong in themseives-
all these are recalled, mingled
with pleasant memories, ss the
winter’s winds sing a sad requiem
over the dying year.
It is tee accounting period, and
if tee life is what it ought to be
each expiring year should show
a larger balance on tee credit
side of tee ledger than tee year
before. But reformation doee
not entirely obliterate tee marks
of sin. Children learn tee story
of the boy whose father gave him
a hammer and some nails and
old him to drive a nail -into one
of the gate poets every time he
did anything wrong and to with-
draw a nail whenever he did a
good deed. For awhile tee naile
increased but tee very number of
teem finally brought reflection
and the boy began- to withdraw
nails. One day the father found
him standing before the post—all
the nails withdrawn but the boy
was in tears. The father, de
lighted with his eon’s improve-
ment, asked why he was sad and
the boy replied: “The scars are
still there.” Yes, the soars re-
main but they may serve a useful
purpose if they restrain us from
future transgression.
While repentance may
change the course of a life it is
not always possible to make 00m
plete resolution when an injury
has been done to another. If,
for instance, one takes a human
life no amount of repentance can
call baok tee spirit that has flown
Nor is the taking of a life the
only sin for whioh full compen
sation can not be made. The
wrong done by a false witness
largely irremendial. It is told of
a priest that one of his flock came
to oonfess to wilful slander. The
priest directed him to scatter
handful of thistle down upon the
wind and when he had done so
he was directed to go forth and
gather up the scattered seed
When he replied that it was im
possible to do so his spiritual ad-
viser reminded him it was like
wise impossible to entirely undo
the wrong done by a false ac-
cusation.
Memory does not always smile
upon us but when she does chide

A State of Health That Needs Prompt
Treatment to Ward Off
Serious Disease.
Do you notice a large redaction in
your vital energy? Are you losing hold
on your place in the social world? Is
your strength gone, constitution weak,
appetite poor, digestion deranged, bow-
els costive, with uneasiness and symp-
toms of derangement in the region of
the kidneys? Such a condition is the
preliminary to Bright’s Disease or some
other serious kidney trouble. If this
describes the state of your body, we urge
upon you prompt action before your
health is entirely beyond recovery.
Prickly Ash Bitters is the remedy you
need; it has a four-fold restorative effect.
It stimulates the torpid liver, restores
health in the stomach, strengthens and
cures the kidneys, apd through its
peculiar yet agreeable laxative char-
acter it clinches the good work by thor-
oughly cleansing the bowels. It is a
certain remedy for kidney and liver
and bowels. Prickly Ash Bitters chance for Admiral Rozhdest-

hie army from the Hunho anc
beat a retreat into the Tieliog
district. If, in the existing post-
ure of affairs, he were to riak a
battle against superior numbers,
he would expose tee army of *
Russia to decisive defeat, and
put an end to the prospect of
furthur opposition to Oyama’s
advance upon Mukden. An ef-
fort of this kind, after a decisive
Japaneee victory, would ensue
almost beyond doubt.
Only by threatening Harbin,
the point of concentration of any
newly arriving Russian forces,
can the Japaneee hope to con-
strain their foes to consider neg-
otiations for peace. Should Oy-
ama attain this point, Vladivos-
tok would become the objective
of further Japaneee operations.
The purpose of the Japanese to
push on as far as Harbin seems
venturesome in view of the pro-
longation of tee line of operations.
Yet this circumstances loses
much of its significance in view
of the existence of the line of
railway. Besides, the line of the
Japanese, in their advance, would
not be longer than the line of the
Russians in their rear. It would
be a Japanese line involving some
thirty marches. The goal of the
operation is not unattainable and
it is the only goal of whioh the
attainment would lead to peace-
were it a peace of only one year.
It would have been made char to
the Russians that only by a ter-
mination of the war would it be
possible to avoid a siege of Vlad-
ivostk and its consequences.
Such a thing could only be con-
ceivable, however, after the de-
feat of the Russian army at Muk-
den, a condition precedent to
which, again, is the fall of Port
Arthur.
Upon the fate of this fortress,
accordingly, hangs not alone the
destiny of the Baltic squadron,
but the outcome of the battle at
Mukden and, in the la9t resort,
the prospect of the continuation
of Japanese offensive operations.
