How BABY Opens Its Mental Eyes.
In the last volume Of the Educational
Series" on. "The Development OF the In
tellect' Mr.. III. w. Brown has presented
conspectus of the observations of Pro-
fessor Prever on the mind of the child,
which shows chronologically the gradual
development Of the senses, intellect and
will of the growing child, and presents
in condensed form the result of a great
number of careful observations. 1t is
recorded that sensibility to light, touch,
temperature, smell and taste are present
on the first day of infant life. Hearing,
therefore, is the only special sense which
is not active at this time. The child
hears by the third or fourth day. Taste
and smell are senses at first most active,
but they are not differentiated. General
organic sensations of well being or dis
comfort are felt from the first, but pain
and pleasure, as mental states, are not
noted till at or near the second month.
The first sign of speech in the shape of
utterance of consonant sounds is heard
in the latter part of the second month,
these consonants being generally ''m,D
SRI" "g," or St" All the movements of
the eyes become coordinate by the
fourth month, and by this time the child
begins to have the ''feeling of self" that
is, he looks at his own hands and looks
at himself in the mirror. The study OF
the childs mind during the first year
shows conclusively that ideas develop
and reasoning processes occur before
there is any knowledge of words or Ian.
guage; though it may be assumed that
the child thinks in symbols, visual OF
auditory, which are clumsy equivalents
for words. By the end of the year the
child begins to express itself by sounds
that is, speech begins. The development
of this speech capacity is, according te
Preyer, in accordance with the develop
ment of the intellectual powers. By the
end of the second year the child's power
of speech is practically acquired.

profusion and Simplicity.

Strange fashions are not confined to
our own age or country. Holinshed, the
famous and amusing chronicler Of the
Sixteenth century, comments severely.
upon the manners of the English of his
day. He tells us that Sin number of
dishes and changes of meat the nobility
of England (whose cooks are for the
most part Frenchmen and foreigners) do
most exceed till there is no day in man.

in they have not only beef, mutton, veal.

many of them as the season yieldeth, but
also some portion of the red and fallow

fowl, and thereto sundry other DELEGATES
wherein the sweet hand of the sea faring
Portingale is not wanting, SO that for a
man to dine with one of them and to
taste of every dish that standeth before
him, is rather to yield unto conspiracy
with great deal of meat for the speedy
suppression of natural health than the
use of necessary meal to satisfy himself
with competent repast to sustain his
body withal." Much the same fashion
is kept up to this day, and public ban
quets and the sumptuous tables of the

the eye and tempt the palate, and, lei

The Sea Horse.

The sea horse is so called because he
hasn't the least resemblance to a horse,
and because he is never seen in the sea.
The name was given him by some smart
Alec who felt awfully funny that day.
Some years later another smart Alec
changed the name to sea COW, but that
doesn't hit any closer. They are found
in rivers and lagoons instead of the sea,
and they resemble cows as much as
stuffed woodchuck does live lion.
The principal occupation of sea horse
cow, as we are obliged to call him, is
promenading around on the muddy bot
toms of muddy rivers, satisfying his
hunger on the best the land affords, and
making the neighborhood highly UNI
comfortable for African gentlemen out
fishing in their canoes. He has no am
bition beyond that, and If undisturbed
would let the world wag along and mind
his own business. Naturalists claim that
he is very docile and affectionate when
in captivity, and the day may come when
he will replace the poodle dog as pet.
His span of life is supposed to be sixty
years, but that doubtless depends great
deal on the care he takes of himself. If
the newly discovered elixir of life works
as is hoped for. the sea horse-cow's days
may be extended over a hundred years.

The shaI,,s Mascot.

A new and noticeable figure among the
numerous dignitaries and officials in the
suite of the shah of Persia is young boy
of 10, whom the shah has covered with
dignities and titles, and who is an object
of envy and fear to most of his majesty's
ministers. His name is Goolamali Khan.
He is the director Of the corps of "royal
pages and one of his titles is Azizus-
Sultan, "Favorite of the Monarch"
Neither minister, vizier nor royal prince
has ever yet laeen allowed 70 sit At the
shah's table, but Goolafnali Khan is an
exception TO this law of the Persians. He
is constantly by his masters side, and
has more servants to wait upon him than
any two OF the royal ministers. The ex-
PLANTATION of this extraordinary treat
ment is to be found in the Persian mon
arch's conviction that his life Is INSOFAR
ably and mysteriously bound up with
that of Goolamali Khan, and that wise
men have foretold that the shah's death
will be preceded only few days by that
Of his young favorite; that the health and
prosperity of the latter will mean the
health and prosperity Of tho former, and
that, generally, whatever befalls this lit
tie one will also happen to his royal pro-
tector This belief has resulted in the
boy leading life of ease and luxury I'M
known to tho most fortunate courtiers
in Teheran. He was seated on the knees
OF two magnificent grandees on the
shah's entry into st. Petersburg. New
York Star.

"A young man who is credited by his
friends with being good deal of phil
osepher penned me up in a corner today
and harangued me as follows:
"Did you ever study the human laugh
as an index to human character? 1t is
an infallible test, me boy. Did you ever
know man who simpered and giggled
like girl who wasn't sneak in his
hearth And, ON the contrary, did you
ever know a fellow who laughed squarely
out with good honest roar who wasn't
the prince of good fellows?
"a shrill laugh is indicative of deceit,
and deep chuckle proves sincerity and
good nature. BY this don't mean that
a man with tenor voice can't laugh as
though he was honest, or one with a bass
voice cover his insincerity with a mere
below. It's the ring that talks. If the
laugh has no ring in it you can put the
fellow down as half hearted cuss, no
matter If his laugh is loud enough to lift
the roof of the Auditorium. Stand
twenty men up in row before me and
do something to get them all laughing,
and III separate the good fellows from
the Miss Nancies about as quickly as you
could get outside Of q beefsteak after q
years famine. Seer"

One does not expect to speak bis

London one hopes at least to be under

what don't know and what you ought

gusted American, "it's place where

Tho cnuss Of Painting.

Chief among the causes Of fainting at.
tacks in churches and other places OF
public meeting are overheating and inn
purity of atmosphere. Both are to a
great extent preventable, but, though
some success has been gained in the way
of prevention, much remains to be done
before the air in our large assembly
rooms can be regarded as pure enough to
meet the requirements Of a large audi
ence. The Introduction of the electric
light has brought some relief, and the
purifying effect of artificial ventilation,
as represented by the fan system and the
heated exit flue, is quite appreciable.
There is still, however, a wide field open,
and the inventor of perfect system Of
ventilation for public buildings will not
only be public benefactor, but should
also reap very substantial reward

unrimitsa cradit.

A country schoolmistress had much
trouble with her pupils, and to avoid 1t
made her examples placed before them
of an explanatory character or illustra-
tive. The effect was often unexpected.
In going over their usual reading lesson
a line was chosen by the lady upon which
to test the merits of the scholars. The
line read, 'And he was a man of unlim-
tied credit in business"
"Now, John, can you tell me what is
meant by the word credit when used as
in this lessong'
Thus she addressed one of the stum-
bling blocks of the school.
II dunno, marin" said Johnny, look
ing sheepish.
"You don't known said the mistress.
We'll, look here. Surprising your
mother was to come short OF money at
the latter part of the week, ana needed
provisions, etc., now what would she
dor"
She was satisfied that her illustration
was plain, and awaited the correct reply,
and 1t came thus:
"Well, marm," replied Johnny, ~
dunno what she would do, unless she
pawned dads Sunday coat"
The subject was instantly dropped,
and the teacher has lost all faith In that
style of illustration. Young Ladies'

There's No Substitute for Leather.

Leather is unique material. There is
no substance in any way analogous to it.
Flexibility and durability are opposite
qualities that no other product possesses

and the vegetable kingdom, are COM
bined in an indissoluble union which

limitations of Old Bronze.

An excellent imitation Of old bronze
has been introduced in some of the art
products of that character. 1t is well
known that the repeated applications to
copper or brass of alternate washes of
dilute acetic acid and exposure to the
fumes of ammonia result in very an
tique green bronze; but q more rapid
method of producing this beautiful APP
pearance has long been desideratum.
1t is now found that this may be accom-
plished by immersing the articles in a
solution of one part perchloride of iron
in two parts OF water. the tone acquiring
darkness with length of immersion, or
the materials may be boiled in strong
solution of nitrate Of copper. 1t is also
found practicable to insure the desired
effect by immersing the articles in a solu-
tion of two ounces of nitrate of iron and
the same quantity of hyposulphite of soda
in half pint of water, drying and burn
ishing completing the process.---New

a SONG OF THE SAND MAN.

not for the sand mani Jolly old fellow,
With twinkling eyes and gleesome smile;
de comes when the candles flicker yellow.
And he does his work in jauntiest style.
For he lightens his cumbersome bag of sand
With light and brisk and a generous hand.
Hol for the sand mani merry old codger,
His aim is firm and his shot Is crack,
And the sharpest wiles of the nimblest dodger
Can battle him never, nor hold him back;
Blue eyes, gray eyes, black eyes, brown,
He powders them soft-and the lids drop down
Hol for the sand mani funny old rover,
He stops the playing and halts the fun;
He doesn't wait till the games are over
He doesn't care whether the romps are done,
His shaggy old head pobes In, and lol
Mouths cape widely and feet lag slow.
Hol for the sand man. blithesome old caller,
Mothers esteens him and nurses adore,
For he gathers the children, the big and the
smaller,
And hurries them swiftly away before
They know it's been done, to the babbling
streams
And the singing birds Of the land OF dreams.

Several Orlando families have pet
sandhill cranes, which they find alert
night watchers. No tramp or thief can
approach their premises without hearing
clear bugle note of alarm. Maj. Foster
has flock of cranes. He had one pair
to which the wild ones paid frequent
visits, and several were enticed under
wire netting and their wings clipped.

Tears Of shame.

A weeping peach tree is one Of the
curiosities of Denison, Tex, and it is
stated that "a number of superstitious
persons believe that spirits operate upon
it." 1t is easy to account for the trees
emotion without referring it to the
spirits. 1t would not be strange II sem
sitive peach tree should be moved to
tears as it reflected upon the abandoned
way in which some fruit dealers basket
peaches for the market-the big ripe
ones on top, ths little hard ones below.
The only wonder is that more peach
trees do not weep. New York Tribune.

Florida sponges.

The finest and best sponges in the

da Keys. Native Floridians do the prin-
cipal gathering. There are some Bahama
Islanders also. The sponge fishers are
called conks. They do not dive, but tear
up the sponges with three tined forks on
long poles. A Greek came down from
New York q year or SO ago and tried
gathering them by diving, using regular
divers suit, but he made failure of it.
