Are Minfsrers' Sons the Worst?

It has become a popular saying
that sons Of clergymen are worse
than other mems sons, and that as
a rule, they turn out badly. With
regard to the first statement, it may
be said that so much more isexpeoted
OF ministers sons aad unjustly ex-
pected, too. Like other young men,
they are Of the earth earthly. Con-
corning the second statement, figures
will speak palmer than words. For
instance, Zion's Herald says~there
are 2O5 sons of Methodist>SIninisters
In Toronto, CanadaThese sons
have turned out follows: ''One
Judge, one bishoS, two county crown
attorneys, opepublic school inspector,
one n: three Queens counsels,
four graduates in dentistry, twelve
in medicine, forty in Is and law,
three bankers, five insurance agents,
six clergymen, three organists, one
librarian, one Government employe
and sixty students at the various
educational Institutions.

uNABLE TO JUDGE DISTANCE
a Falling Among Electric Motormes

a Falling Among Electric Motormes
Which Frequently Causes Aeoidonts.
The general manager OF the Jersey
City and Newark electric street car
lines thinks that he has discovered
the cause OF maay Of the collisions
and other accidents on the roads
One Of his notormen ran into
wagon not long sso aud demolished
it. The accounts OF the accident
given by his driver Of the wagon and
the motorman tailed except as to
the distance between them when the
warning gong was first sounded.
While the motorman was telling his
story the manager noticed something
little out of the ordinary In the ap-
pearancs Of his eyes. and he ques-
toned him about his sight. The
man answered that it was good, or,
at least, that he had not discovered
any defec. in it. He was sent to an
oculist for examination, and the lat
ter found that the motormon's judg-
ment Of distances was very poor. OBJ
1ects appeared to him to be farther
away than they really were. Since
then, says the St. Louis Republic,
the eyes Of all the other motormen
In the two cities have been examined
and their judgment in regard to dis
tances tested. Quite number OF
them failed to pass the examination,
aud their places on the motors are
now filled by men with good Wis on
land with at least fair judgment as to
distances. Near-sighted, far-sighted,
cross-eyed, and colorbIind applicants
for the position Of motormen will te
ruled out in future without further
examination. The rule will extend
to other defects of vision. Even
