Native Of Virginia and a cousin Of Presi-
dent Zachary Taylor. His father was a
captain IN the Revolutionary war. It
was he who urged Abraham Lincoln to
study Law and helped him with money 10
bay law books. Young Lincoln made
his home with Col. Taylor for several
years. When Lincoln became President
at time when American crecit, vas low

There are but few ambidexters, either
in the matter of hands, feet or eyes. 1t
may sound rather queer, but it is fact
nevertheless, that 95 out of every 100
human beings are right handed. left
legged and left eyed.
Felix Hement, who knows more about
eyes in a minute than half of the opti-
clans and oculists of the country have
been able to learn in a lifetime, re
marked that it is an established fact that
we all use one eye more than we do the
other, which establishes as clear case
of ''left and right eyedness" as though
the same terms were used to denote a
preference IN the use of hands and feet.
If you want to decide as to whether
your friends or relatives are right or left
eyed, give them a small telescope or spy
glass to look through or have them take
'aim" with a gun. We all take great
interest in ascertaining the color, size,
shape and visual powers Of our children's
eyes, but how many Of US stop to con-
slider whether they are fright" or left
eyed?"-St. Louis Republic.

VIVA, nature Docs For usr rree..

The wild forest trees bear a great
abundance of foliage. and this shows
that nature provides for her own in a
most bountiful manner. The inferiority
Of the foliage of the mountain trees and
those growing near lakes and rivers is
due to the rich substances contained in
decayed leaves and water forming a
chemical action with the solar rays.
Oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, carbonic
acid and the gaseous substances IN na-
ture are sufficient TO complete the annual
growth of forest trees Of all classes.
Along the broad reaches Of the north
ern and southern rivers this fact is clear
ly seen and well defined. The rich nav
igable lowland rivers, such as the Thames
in England and the Loire in France, dis
play the richest and most luxuriant
trees. Boston Transcript.
