a Child Wonder.

The French Academy Of Sciences, in
1929, examined the case Of a French
lad, only years old. who, III all re-
spects save that Of intelligence, was
the equal of a man of 30 His remarka-
bic physical development began when
he was years old. At i he could do
the farm work Of boy of Is or l6, and
at he was a fully grown man. AL
though his physique was thus remarka-
bly, developed, his intelligence was nc
greater than that Of children of the
same age. He died before he was 90.
AS is usual in such cases of premature
development, his strength faded away,
and he became prematpreiy old before
other men would attain maturity.

effect CT setting back district which is

threw piece Of rock on the pile, with
the remark that he had just picked it
up and it looked as if it might run well.
l knew at once that the rock had not

this piece assayed separately. 1t ran

Door to Beg lily Bread"
One Of the bittcrest disappointments
in Schubert s life was Goethe's indifTer-
ence IN 1913 he scnt selection of his
compositions to the poets songs to Wei
mar. What precious pearls Of music
were among the collcction-thc songs
of "Mignon" and Tho Harpist, these
from Faust, +" the sad melodies Long

Nightaong, 1.-THE Earl King, Hal

Bad, y "Tha King of Thule" and the
music to "Claudinc of Villa Bella. "
Goethe, who had an ear only for the
stiff compositions of Zumsteeg and Rein
hart, then i'll fashion III Weimar, teok
no notice Of Schubcrt's s music ant, left
his letter unanswered. Not until 1850
after Schubort's Geatl-did Goethe learn
to appreciate the extraordinary value oI
the compositions that lay neglected in
his drawer. twas then that Wilhelmine
Schroeder Deyrient sang THE Earl
King to him.
1t was schubert's greatest delight to
friends to the picturesquely situated vii
lagos in the Wilnerwald or on the kah-
lenberg, and it was III the arbors OF the
small inns, with glass of pure country
wine before him, that inspiration came
most easily. But even these modest de-
lights were imbi1tered by the malice
that pictured him as a drurEard who
composed his songs when he was full Of
wine It is an absolute fact that he did
not lose the faculty of artistic WORK even
under the saddest circumstances. He
composed the greater part Of the " Mil
ler Songs while he was lying i'll il
hospital in 1928. He was quite right
when he wrote to his friend Kuppei-
wieser in March, 1924, "Those of my
compositions which have been inspired

there long. Within a few days she
had sold her furniture, her. COW and
her four chickens, and had started for
New Caledonia. On her arrival at
Noumea she went to the prison gate
and asked if she could see her son.
"Your name?" inquired the turnkey.
"Vidrae," replied the old woman.
Had the ground opened beneath him
the turnkey could not have been more
surprised "You are Yidrae's mother?
he faltered at last. "All right. Wait!"
No wonder he was surprised. For no
sooner had the convict 'Vidrae reached
New Caledonia than he celebrated the
occasion by numbering one of his fell
low convicts. This being his second Of
Tense of the kind, the court had I'M
hesitatingly condemned him to death,
and at the moment of his mothers ar
rival he was lying in the death cell.
When the poor mother heard this aw-
full news she fell in q dead faint. As
soon as she recovered from it brain
fever attacked her, and for three
months she was bereft of reason.
Courage, Mother Vidrae! Your son
is not dead!" So the kindly officials say
to her, and after awhile she understands
that the apparently impossible has hap
pened, that he has been pardoned for
her sake. Tho court had heard of her
unwearied devotion and had rewarded
her by sparing the life of her son.
Did he show any gratitude? Not he.
True, he knelt beside his mothers bed
and kissed her and shed tears, but they
were crocodile tears, and thedliss was
the kiss of a Judas. He feigned peni-
tence admirably, but only because q
physician stood by his mothers side and
was watching him closely.
Since that time many years have
passed, through all of which Mother
Vidrae has lived the life of martyr.
Her son works in the chain galleys I'M
der the ever watchful eyes of a stern
guard. From dawn TO sunset his back
is bent at hard work, and so it will be
with him till his life ends. The old
mother earns q scanty livelihood by do
ing mcnial work, her only object being
to gather daily few sous so that she
may be able to prepare dish of good
warm soup for her convict son. And
every evening the loving woman goes
to the prison with can full of war1u |
soup. AS she enters scores of chained |
ruflians stand in line waiting for their |
sumner. and at the warden's behest one |

OF them, gross, towering TelIow, Steps

armed guards, goes forward TO his old
mother, On iron plate in his hand and
heavy chains ON his feet. Without 4
word of greeting or gratitude he thrusts
forward the plate, and, raising her
trembling arms, She pours the good
soup into it. Vidrae may then say:
"An right, old woman" but as q rule
he pays not the slightest attention to
the old woman. Why should he? What
is the use of fawning over ones mother
before lot of convicts who cannot APP
preciate good acting?

OLD FOGYISH.

The custom of reading the minutes
at every meeting of the council is an
old fogy custom and should be done
away with. 1t takes up a large part of
the time of the meeting, and the coun-
Gil pays no attention to the reading
The object of reading the minutes is
to detect any error and correct the
same, but the inattention of the coun-
Gil to the reading become chronic. All
legislative bodies have, adopted anoth-
er plan. The minutes are printed in
the form of an official journal which is
furnished each member, who can call
attention to any correction necessary.
The reading Of the minutes is dis
pensed with. This reform would be
greatly appreciated by the public, and
we would be able to see just how long
it takes to do business instead of the
clerk making himself hoarse reading
to an audience that never listens and
never hears what he is reading about.
