In Tommy's Head.

was at one time a teacher of the first
primary grade in the public schools at Y.
It was a rule to give short oral lesson
in physiology on Friday afternoons and to
illustrate the lesson from large chart.
Among my pupils was small boy called
Tommy, who was almost an innocent. "
Teachers had labored long and faithful
" with him, but nothing had ever seemed
to interest him in the least He would
only come occasionally, but noticed that
ON ''ohart day, ;" as the children called 1t,
Tommy was always there. He loved that
chart, and his admiration for the hideous
pictures on IL knew no bounds.
One Friday our lesson concerned the
bead and brain. Knowing Tommy's love
for the pictures, placed him where he
could get good view of the chart and
tried long and hard to impress upon him
that his head contained his brain. real
" thought that at last had made an i'm
preston and saw CLEAN of intelligence
on his dull little face. At that moment
the superintendent happened in to make 6
call, and thinking had accomplished
wonders (Tommy's fame having reached
him) called on Thomas to tell where hi
brain was He gave me blank look anC
remained silent. l tried again and put TIKI
question in another form.

what is In your head"
