inexperienced.

There is pretty story told of a
young physician of Washington who
was connected at one time with the
Emergency Hospital; it has caused
many a smile at his expense. He
had not been long stationed at the
hospital when a woman was brought
in suffering from severe scalp
wound. The blood were fast dyeing
her golden curls rusty red, and the
doctor was engaged in hastily clip
ping her hair, when his patient ex-
claimed, ooh, Doctor, DON'T" Think
ing he might have hurt her, he said.
ooh, never mind; that's all right"
"No, it's not" responded the lady,
with some wrath, "for you are cut
ting MY Wig!"

The Vision OF Birds.

Birds have very acute vision: per-
haps the most acute Of any creature,
and the sense is also more widely
diffused over the retina than is the
case with man; consequently bird
can see sideways as we'll as objects
in front Of it.
A bird sees-showing great I'M
easiness in consequences hawk long
before it is visible to man: so, too,
fowls and pigeons find minute scraps
of food, distinguishing them from
what appear to us exactly similar
pieces Of earth or gravel.
Young chickens are also able to
find their own food-knowing it's po-
sition and how distant it is-as soon
as they are Matched, whereas a child
only very gradually learns either to
see or to understand the distance Of
objects.
Several birds - apparently the
young Of all those that nest on the
ground-can see quite we'll directly
they come out Of the shell, but the
young birds that nest on the trees or
on rocks are born blind and have to
be fed. Cham Journal.

whose life has been spent in compar-
ative quiet and seclusion. Owing to
the sickness first Of her mother and
then of her father, followed by their
deaths, Miss Gould's life has been
more than ordinarily domestic one
and her debut in society has been
postponed beyond the natural time.
She is now a woman fairly into the
twenties, and is described as mod
est and charming lady. She is not
very beautiful, but she makes up for
any such deficiency by her wealth and
her benevolence. She owns in her
own right $l5, 600, 600 in hard cash
or in securities whose tendency is
ever upward. Besides the family
residence On Fifth avenue and the
country house at Irvington on the
Hudson, both valued at 81, 300, 600,
are hers. Miss Gould is very charita-
BILE, and all her life work among the
city poor has been her hobby. She
is personally identified with numer-
Gus mission and benevolent organiZa-
tions and dispenses large sums annu-
ally. She is a Skillful musician, q
noted pedestrian and horsewoman
and woman'y woman.

the other evening to small 'crOWc u
listeners. SAYS the Lewiston Journal.
"There are lots Of farmers, he oe-
gan, who think they can turn every
thing they touch into gold II tney
can only locate near some village
where there's business going or.
Well, now, let me tell you that on an
average there was never bigger mis-
take in the world. You look around the
outskirts of any village or city in the
State of Maine and see if what tell
you isn't true.
you'll find some good farmers liV-
ing close to the towns, but you'll 1lnd
a heap more of men that farm 1T
tie, work out carpentering or IN the
factory little, and sit round good
deal and don't amount in the end to
much of anything anyway. I've
known lots of 'em Of just that sort.
If they had farms too far from town
to loaf in the stores and to catch up
SO many .jobS, as they call 'em,
they'd attend strictly to business and
run the farm to make dollar out OF
it. But this edge Of the village
business spoils them"
Lets see, Uncle SAM" rejoined
long-faced listener, "you talk pretty
we'll, but where is your farm located?"
"Oh, in the edge of the village, Of
course. 1t has spoiled me as we'll as
the rest Of 'em, and that's what set
me to preachin' about it. :"

good policy to shut the gates for q

TIME assuredly will cure the Amer
lean plutocracy Of it's humble admir-

world-its envy Of the latter's ven
cradle titles by whomsoever worn.
AS we become more civilized all
Americans will become more patriotic

sane founders set up the bars against
royalty and orders of nobility. Our
plutocrats sigh for the gauds Of rank
chiefly because they are unattainable

the charm, the seducing glamour Of

IN THE city Of st. Louis the other
day a fellow named Tobias went at
the man and wife with whom he
boarded and, in an attempt to kill
them with a carving knife, wounded
both in frightful manner. Tobias
is a paperhanger, and the firm en-
ploying him assures the public that
che is a harmless, peaceable man. !"
He must be. What world this
would be if all men had his seraphic
disposition. The people whom he
carved had tainted him into muir
derous frenzy by asking him in a
very nice and quiet way for a board
bill long overdue. In his "harmless
and peaceablc" way he went right at
them with the big knife, and meant
to kill. What would one Of ST.
Louis tcrrors be, and where do the
good citizens bury their dead?

A Flag to Summon to Church.

In the rooms of the Conn ccticut
Historical Society is exhibited piece
of bell showing the date OF casting,
1929. This fragment which is in
two parts, is portion of the bell
which formerly hung for more than a
century in the old Center Church.
The old bell having broken in 1925,
the society, on Dec. 10, 1925, voted
that "John Edwards, at the charge
of the Society, purchase Some Suit
able Red bunting for tlagg to be set
on the State House to direct for
meeting upon the publick Worship of
God" The old tell was sent to En-
gland at the expense of both the
first and second societies, where it
was recast in 1929, and continued in
use here from that time until 1S41,
when it broke, and a new bell was
ordered. Hartford Courant.
