Farm Work For Imbeciles.

The State OF Ohio has decided to
inaugurate new experiment in the
treatment of imbeciles. Hitherto these
weakminded unfortunates have boen
housed in great asylums, where under
the constant care of trained attendants
they have received elementary class
room instruction. While this system
developed the intellectual resources Of
the imbecile, weak and wavering as
they were, there was no opportunity
to build up the physical energies.
Gymnasium exercises failed to meet
the requirements.
The State Legislature has recently
appropriated $50, 900 for the purchase
Of farm and the establishment Of an
imbecile village in connection with it.
Instead of a great asylum there will be
great number Of cottages, each in
charge of competent attendant. 1t
is proposed TO develop the minds OF
the members Of the colony by class
room work and their bodies by out
door exercise in practical farming.
They will thus have the same mental
stimulus as before and will also have
the advantage OF pure air, physical ex-
ercise, and the healthful incentive Of
sustained work along practical lines.
The result Of the experiment will be
watched with interest. Pathfinder.

THE LAND OF CHANCE.

THE LAND OF CHANCE.
Children, did you ever glance
AT the lucky land Of chance,
Where all things are regulated
By the merest circumstance
Now, for instance, people there
Toss their garments anywhere.
And, If chance they thus mislay them
Growl and claim, lit isn't fair -
Why, I've heard ii said that they
Shirk their work from day to day,
Trusting to good luck to help them
Chance to find an easy way.
It's q topsy-turvy land,
For, of course, you understand,
Every little thing, ''iust happens.
And is never, never planned
Many boys and girls, I guess,
Must have lived there more OF less,
Judging by their careless habits,
Pretty bad, we must confess
Chance is not a thing to trust;
TO achieve success you must
Plan and work with will and method
As some say, ''get up and dust !"

to grow, and in little while reached
the height Of three feet. Mr.. Hudson
was as clustering and daring as any
gentleman measuring six feet or more
might be, his hardihood even going
so far as to lead him into fighting u
duel. This feat he performed sitting
on horseback, that he might be the
same height as his opponent. The
dwarf's hand was steady and his eye
was true, and he fatally wounded his
antagonist. A former duke Of Milan

kept a number OF them In his palace,

THE CoCKATooS.

The cockatoos are remarkable for
the powdery surface of their wings,
and the crest on tho head, which can
be raised or depressed at pleasure,
The sulphur-crested cockatoo is an
inhabitant Of New Guinea. It's color
is white. aud the crest is Of a sulphur
yellow. Its white plumnge glancing
among the dense dark foliage OF its
native forests, imparts a wonderful
beauty to the scene aud as Sir Thomas
Mitchell remarks; amidst tho UNI
brageous foliage, forming dense
masses Of shade. the white cockatoos
sported like spirits Of light" This
cockatoo is easily tanned, and is Of a
very affectionate disposition. When
in captivity it has been known to live
to the age of 100 years. It's nest is
built in hollow trees, and the crevices
Of rocks. The eggs are white. The
length of the bird is about eighteen
inches.

The Knot.

A knot is the nautical synonym for
the geographical mile. The geogrsph-
ical mile is one.sixtieth OF q mean
degree OF meridian on the earth,
and is, therefore, one-sixtieth Of so. 90
English statute miles, or, what is the
same thing, the length Of the geo.
graphical mile, or knot, or nautical
mile as 1t is also called, is 6000 feet.
Hence. when q ship has gone one
knot it has gone l.15l5 statute miles,
or what is nearly the same thing, n
ship which is running thirteen knots
an hour is travelling at the same speed
as a railway train which is going If
teen miles an hour. The name is
derived from the knots tied on the
appendages Of ships log line. st.

presently, located his blazing eyes
half way up the side OF the bridge,
and perceived that the beast, when
the water rushed into the bridge, had
leaped on one Of the slanting beams,
and was now crouching there, in more
unreasoning terror, doubtless. than
mine. 1 thanked fortune then for
the floating off of the bridge and the
thrush of water, which would, proba-
bly,, act as an effectual barrier be-
tween what now realized must be a
ca.amount or wildcat and myself.
Shiveringly, I waited for the dawn.
The bridge hoated smoothly enough,
save when it whirled in the current
and struck some tree on the river
bank. Then it would tremble all
through its timbers, but soon swing
free and start upon its course again.
The floor was about two feet under
water oil the time, and L soon con-
cluded to follow the example of my
brute companion aud climb up on one
of the beams. Here I ensconced
myself as best I could, and spent q
miserable two hours, until the first
gray light of morning began to steal
into my prison.
As objects gradually became more
distinct L made out at last the tawny
body Of panther, stretched, head
downward, along beam opposite me.
The fierce, fixed eyes were still
turned toward me, and although the
body of the beast was perfectly still,
q constant vibration and slight lash
ing of the tail betokened its intense
alertness. Never once did it turn its
blazing eyes away from mine, but for
over an hour watched me as cat
watches some bird that II Is intent to
catch.
Then there came sudden tremen.
dous shock TO the bridge, and one end
of it shot up several feet in the air,
submerging the other end where the
panther was clinging, until the water
surged over the head and shoulders Of
the startled beast. I saw IL shrink
backward up the beam, but ITS hind
quarters were blocked by the frame
work of the roof ere its head got above
water. Then 1t launched from the
beam with q mad plunge, and swan
heavily past me, till it reached the
Swallowing water at the other end Of
the bridge, aud climbed, half drowned,
up into the morning light.
At that instant, when its head and
shoulders hung over the threshold OF
the bridge, ride shot rang out clear
and sharp. The great cat quivered
convnlsively and then sprang forward
and disappeared.
1 slipped down from my perch,
plunged through the water, and
climbed up where the cat had lain.
Below me yawned gulf forty feet
deep, into which the flood Numbered
in yellow, yeasty mass. The bridge
had struck dam, and the forward
end, sliding up over it's shiny verge,
hung suspended in mid-air, At this
point banks of the river were steep
and high, with huge boulders scat
tered over them. On one bank,
clinging to 1t like a swallows nest, was
sawmill. The greater part Of it was
under water, but man stood at one
Of the upper windows, with smok-
ing rifle in his hand. He saw the
look OF intense inquiry on my face,
though he could not hear the shout l
raised, amid the thunder Of the waters.
In reply he pointed to the swirling,
foaming gulf beneath me. Then I
understood how the wounded panther
had leaped to his death. -Detroit Free
