A BIG BULL.

The boss bull snake of the season is now
on exhibition at Eno's furniture store. His
snakeship is more than six feet in length
and measures eight inches in circumfer-
ence. Mr. Emo captured this monster only
few miles north of Wichita, on the B. H.
Campbell farm. He appears to be perfect
ly contented in his new home, and shows
his appreciation of the many visitors who
call daily by projecting his tongue and
wagging his caudal appendage, which by
the way, is ornamented with horn about
one-half inch in length. His appetite for
live rats, mice and frogs is good. October
LIST is the date he commences his Rip Van
Wrinkle sleep.

PREPARING FOR WORK.
Arranging Pupils in School Buildings Dis
tributing the Flags-Grade Meetings.

Superintendent of city schools DIR. Ste
venson stated yesterday that his time was
occupied mostly in making changes of
pupils from one school building to another.
Some of the buildings are crowded far be-
yond their capacity, and there would be
no hopes for the best school workerin such
crowded condition. AS an instance, he
cited the Washington school According
to the present enrolment, shows about
five hundred and fifty pupils, or over one
hundred more than the building will ac-
commodate The relief is being given by
sending pupils outside of the circle to other
schools. This work of designating other
schools is not only tedious in itself, but
the parents often seek interviews with the
superintendent aud make a great howl.
They are very much prejudiced in favor
Of the Washington school. They are
quite sure none other is as
good and in addition to it is always long
distance A clever buffer put in an ap-
pearance yesterday with sparks flying out
of both eyes. The school to which bis
children had been assigned was at least
two miles away and he was not going to
submit to the change by any means. A
measurement on the map showed that
there was just three-quarters of mile be-
tween the Washington school and the one
referred to, and the Irate fellow lived be-
tween the two schools. Some made re-
quests good naturally and others took
other plans, showing in all about as many
plans as there are applicants, but it all
amounts to about the same. DR.. Steven
son succeeded in remaining firm and at
the same time not offensive but agreeable,
leaving good impression even if he don't
comply with demands.
The flags provided by the Garfield post
for the school buildings and rooms were
being distributed yesterday and being put
in position. BY this evening every school
room in the city will be provided with the
stars and strips.
The grade meetings of the teachers held
every day at the Office of the superinten-
dent are attended with no little interest.
The work in every department is starting
off nicely and good results are confidently
eXDected

PHYSIOLOGY AND HYGIENE.
why Children Crave Fruit-Fat and Fruit
Are Born Enemies.

Are Born Enemies.
With regard to the value Of fruit as q
food for children Dr.. J. W. Byers says In
Babyhood: Children crave and hunger
after fruit because their rapidly growing
bodies exercise the tissue producing func-
tons to their utmost limits, and this con-
slant strain necessitates extra nutriment
and assimilation If the child is to continue
to thrive and be healthy. Children digest
rapidly and assimilate rapidly. In the or
binary heterogeneous foods Of children there
Is great lack of those tonic or acid proper
ties which are so essential TO rapid develop
ment as well as grateful to the child's ap-
petite. Fruits furnish these particularly
desirable elements in the highest possible
perfection, and in addition to their Zest
giving properties they also prevent loath-
ing for other foods. which is by no means
uncommon or unimportant complaint"
According to Dr. Byers, ito take fruit as
dessert is very wrong and injurious to di-
gestion; q mere conventionality of man
and not a law of nature. Fat and fruit
are born enemies, and they make it a rule
to create disturbance whenever throw 4
together" He would give a child fruit
upon an empty stomach or with bread
alone, and between or before meals. His
theory is that fruits are golden in the
morning, and every hour thereafter depre-
ciate in value until night, when they are
worse than useless for ehildren-danger-

Troubles Caused BY Ocular Defects.

That weakness or imperfections of the
eyes may be the unsupported cause of vari-
Gus troubles apparently in no wise con-
nected with the organs of sight is asserted
by writer, who says that headaches which
come on after sewing, reading, watching a
play or otherwise using the visual organs
in a special direction for period Of time,
are usually the direct results Of ocular de-
fects. Neuralgia, dizziness, mental de-
preston, melancholia, ST. Vitus' dance and
even epilepsy have been shown TO be
directly dependent in certain cases upon
refractory errors for their causation. To
some people glasses are a revelation, re-
vealiDg powers and beauties of vision
never before known to exist. Glasses not
only increase the power of vision and
greatly relieve the work of the eye, but they
actually prevent the occurrence of certain
diseases of the eye and Of reflex Alterations
in other parts of the body, and effect the
preservation of good vision throughout life.
