BLIND chlLpREN,s IDEAS.



The Queer Notions They Have and How
They Express Them.
DIR. Anagnos told me some amusing
stories about the quaint old way that
blind children usually have of express
ing themselves. This is due to the fact
that blind children are thrown almost
altogether for companionship with
grown people and so unconsciously they
imbibe the same manner Of speech.
A short time ago a little child was
entered at the institution by its aunt,
who was schoolteacher. When she left
the child, she said, "Now, shall ex-
pect you to get the matron to write
letter for you to me before very long"
A short time passed, and the matron
said TO the little girl. 'tIsn't it about
time that we wrote that letter to your
auntie?" The little mite said. Nov,
that is what / should stylea coincidence,
for was just about to remark upon the
necessity of forming my ideas at once. :"
At this same institution was much
interested in watching the little ones
write. They placed the paper upon a
board of raised lines, and guided by
them wrote an even, well formed hand.

THE PREACHER.
Do you know who the preacher is,
and do you know where he lives? He
lives in green, shady place, and the
birds and the flowers make his congre-
cation. tsf
The children passing by often gather
punches of these preachers, for there
are great many, and take them home
to put in vase to ornament their man.

pulpit
Jack, finding life very dismal, soon
dies
When the cold winds of winter come,
Jack is asleep under loving mother
earths warm blanket.
But when Jack hears the ripping
brooks and the singing birds he knows
that it is spring again, and he must do
his part to make mother earth beauti-
full. Boston Advertiser

when Money Was Hidden.

1t must have been difficult in the mid
die ages for man of limited means to
take care of his savings. There were, it
is true, the Lombard and Genoese bankers
who dealt with princes, mobiles, bishops
and the abbots of the greater monasteries,
and as time went on there arose the STEM
nese- Roman firm of Chigi, with its hun
bred branches, which in later times sup
piled a pontiff to tho holy see who bore
the name of Alexander VII, but of what
service were these great luxury loving peo-
Pile to the peddler, the yeoman or the small
shopkeeper, whose gains came not in by
pounds, angels or marks, but in penny
driblets, with perhaps an odd groat of
profit on a very successful yentureY How
was their money storedf
In some cases we suspect that the church
wardens took care of it in the parish chest,
though il put to the proof of what we say
we should not be very ready with an an
swer, but 1t is quite certain that as years
rolled on and guilds sprang up in every
village, they acted as bankers for tho guild
men. But there must have been many
persons who belonged to no guild, some
because they were of loose life and such
as no guild would enroll others because
they were not on good terms with the al
dermen or because they were landless folk
who had no settled place of abode 1t was
dangerous to carry specie on the person in
those days.
There were many Robin Hoods abroad,
who had no scruples as to robbing the poor
as well as the rich. To the weak the only
course that was open, il they could not
deposit their coin In the hands of some
trustworthy neighbor, was to bury it In
the earth. This is the explanation of the
numerous boards of coin which have turn

tenth century to the present duy.-Ath-

The contented Jayans.

The Javans live much in public, and
the poorer classes, instead of eating their
meals at home, as is the manner of the
unsociable Hindoo, seem usually to break
fast and dine at one of the itinerant cook
shops to be found at every street corner.
More exclusive people may be seen buying
the small packets of curry and rico wrap
ped in fresh plantain leaves and pinned
with bamboo splinters, which arc intended
for home consumption.
To stroll down village street and watch
the culinary operations in progress at way
side eating shops was an unfailing source
of amusement, and very clean and appe-
tizing they looked, though the smell was
occasionally somewhat trying to the Eu-
ropean nose. The Javans, like all rice
eating people, arc fond of pungent and
evil smelling sauces, and equivalents of
the Burman gnapee and Japanese bean
soy are in constant requisition s
The natives. and especially the children,
look fat and healthy and appear to enjoy
life under easy conditions, though they
are, generally speaking, of grave demeanor
and are not endowed with the unfailing vi
vacity which distinguishes the Burmans

we spent in the island we did not see hall

''No statesman who IS worth his salt
will be hampered by tradition, " said Lord
Rosebery in recent speech And the say
ing is a good enc in itsels Traditions arc
useful only when they help. They arc a
good deal worse than worthless when they
hamper.
But Lord Rosebery's saying is chiefly
remarkable as an Illustration of the fact
that he is not hampered by the traditions
of stilted English oratory. Worth his
salt, is a breezy eolloquialism which. ex-
presses in three words what could not
have been so well expressed in three SEN
fences of the finest oratorical English.
The fine oratorioal English in which our
grandfathers delighted seems insufferably
stilted to us of this generation. We de-
mand plain English, and the man who
wishes to reach the largest number of peo-
pie will use the plainest of plain English
The newspapers, which have hand in
nearly everything, have done this They
have shown the advantage of speaking in
intelligible language. They are con
demned by college professors for using col
loquialisms, vulgarisms If you please, such
as this with which Lord Rosebery enforces
his meaning But what the newspaper
tries to do Is to make itself inteiligiblo to
the largest number of people in the short
est time and smallest space. Very often
fine English is effective, but oftener still IA
colloquialism will ring the bell where the
English of Addison would not strike thu
outer rim Of the target.
The orators are finding this out and cor
forming to it. Something Is lost perhaps,
but mora is gained, for it means another
step away from the exclusivenoss of an in
tellectual aristocracy. Another conces-
sion to the intellectual needs of tho Inassea,
the despised Toms, Dicks and Harrys, over
whose heads the orators of our classical
period fired the resonant salvos Of their
heavy artillery. York World

concerning tho late Sir Matthew Begbie,

is one of them;
In 1888 man was charged in Victoria
with having killed another man with
sandbag and in tho face of the judges
summing up tho jury brought in a verdict
of "Not guilty. This annoyed the chief
justice, who at once said:
''Gentlemen of the jury, mind, that is
your verdict not mine On your CON
science will rest the stigma of returning
such disgracoful verdict. Many repetf-
tions of such conduct as yours will mako

Of Victoria nest of immortality and crime.

And then turning to the prisoner the
chief Justice added: You are discharged

when all the ablutions are happily over

Lerend of the pnnsr.

A pretty fable about the pansy is cur
rent among French ard German children.
Tho flower has five petals and five sepals.
In most pansies, especially of the earlier
and less highly developed varieties, two Ct
tho petals arc plain in color, and three are
gay. Tho two plain petals have single
sepal, two of the gay petals have sepal
each, and the third which is tho largest
of all, has two sepals
The fable is that the pansy represents
family, consisting of husband and wife
and four daughters, two Of the latter being
stepchildren of the wife. The plain petals
are the stepchildren, with only one chair;
the two small, gay petals are the daugh
tors, with chair each, and the large gay
petal Is the wife, with two chairs.
To find the father one must strip away
tho petals until the stamens and pistils are
bare. They have n fanciful resemblance
to an old man, with flannel wrap about
his neck, his shoulders appraised, and his
feet In bath tub. The story is probably
of French origin, because tho French call
the pansy tho stepmother. - Household

A nechuanaland snake story.

Hero is snake story from Bechuana
land paper which we do not remember
having seen before:
A Barberton man who goes to church
regularly was one day walking along the
banks of Concession creek eating a sand
witch, and on account of the usual dispar-
y between meat and bread he threw the
redundant piece into the water. 1mme-
diately a swarm of yellow fish bubbled
around it, fighting for the mouthful. The
man searched his pockets for fishing tackle,
but all in vain, and he was just beginning
to die of despair when his eye lighted on
blacksnake At that moment he remem-
bercd how his father use to tell him that
blacksnakes were very expert In catching
fish. He therefore grabbed the reptile by
the tail, carried 1t to the river and held IL
over the struggling fish. The snake prov.
cd itself born angler, and In the course
of an hour the man had captured 40 fish.
A few days later as he was walking in the
same place he felt something rub against
his leg, and looking down he saw his
friend tho blacksnake eager for more sport.

THE MAGIC OF MUSIC.
How a Remarkable Loss of Memory Was
Cured BY Organ Notes.

Cured by Organ Notes.
The most curious incidents connected
with memory are of course its entire lapse,
and such cases are not by any means so
infrequont as is generally supposed. 1t is
startling enough no doubt to hear fellow
creature asking another fellow creature to
tell him who he is, but such things have
actually happened. Indeed 1t was only
last year that case of the kind was en-.
gaging the attention of Melbourne physi-
clans. A young man. about 80 years of age,
called at the police barracks and demand
ed to be informed as to his own identity.
At first it was thought that the man was
lunatic, sbut it soon became evident that
his statement as to his memory having
failed him was perfectly genuine. He was
taken into custody and kept in Melbourne
Jail, where he was the objeetgof much at
tention and curiosity on the part of physi-
clans and wardens.
He persisted in the declaration that he
did not remember anything before tho day
on which he visited tho police barracks,
and several medical men expressed their
belief in his statement, attributing his
lack of memory to masked epilepsy. Curl
ously enough the man ultimately recover
ed his senses" through the music of tho
Jail Sunday service One morning he was
observed listening intently to the singing,
He was questioned about it, and said; II

stand when told it was music, but at the
close of the service DIR. Shields took him
up to the organ, and, having shown him
that the sounds he had heard were pro-
duced by lingering tho keys, seated him III
front of the instrument.
The man struck several notes unintel-
lightly and then chord or two in har-
mony, and in an instant, with look Of
pleasure, he commenced u selection from
''The Creation, " which he played correctly

that he was familiar with the instrument,

THE DREAMER.

When am sleeping in my bed,
The little people In my head
All sport and frolic, dance and play
AS they never do BY day.
They play at being king and queen
Or catching fairy folk unseen.
They act out giant, troll or gnome.
Or in far Afrio's forests roam.
They go with Sindbad on his trips
Or take command of pirate ships
And eaptun galleons of Spain.
Pearl freignted, on the Spanish main.
Yet each one still pretends he's me,
While am sound asleep, you see.
They play, run and shout and leap
And yet I'm lying fast asleep.
They have such jolly lots Of fun
And see such sightsl Yet never one
VIII wake me up that may go
To share the joys that please them so.
And If wake and try to hear,
Or at their frolics try to peer,
Then all the sly things in trice
Are quiet and demure as mice.
