A Chicago minister who went out TO
Oak Park n Sunday to attend church
was shocked TO see one OF his former
parishioners attired In most unseemly
garments. The man, who was seated
on the front porch Of n handsome resi-
dence, was clad in checked knee
breeches and "A red coat that was faced
in green, says the Chicago Inter Ocean.
The minister paused before the gate.
put on his glasses and gazed in silent
astonishment before speaking.
Say, Brother Brown. why aren't you
attending service?" he inquired. when
he was SURE he had not made n mistake
concerning the idsbtit <of fireman.
Brother Brown looked up from n
Sunday paper and appeared to be EN-
barrassed. lie invited the clergyman
in to take n rest, and he made several
incoherent remarks about the weather.

want TO ask. Where did you get that
smoking jacket? 1t looks as II you
were a matador or something or other
connected with a bull-fght."
The Oak Park man stood up and
turned round SO that the cut Of the
smoking jacket could be seen. Then
he said:
Smoking jacket! Why, where have
you been? This is my golf coat"
The minister apologized and passed
on to where he was expected to listen to
a sermon on Nineteenth Century Prog

DEFECTIVE HUMAN SENSES.
Impaired EyesiGht and Duiinsss of
Hearing Common Among school
Childpsn-

Since 1929, when Massachusetts, es-
tablished in Boston the first American
school for the blind, similar institutions
have been founded by 80 other states,
with a present aggregate of 5000 pupils.
There are only 81 state schools for the
deaf, with more than 10000 pupils. But
not until recently has public attention
been called TO the immense damage in
ficted on human interests by the vast
ly greater number Of persons whose
eyesight or hearing is merely defective,
says the Youths Companion.
A new law of Connecticut requires
that the eyes of all children attending
the public schools shall be examined;
and many teachers have noted that de-
fective vision is quite common, and
that IL is a serious hindrance to the
pupils progress.
1t has also been reported that dull
ness Of hearing is associated with many
cases of backward scholarship.
In Europe an examination showed
that "out of SO fremen and engine-driv-
ers, only three possessed perfectly nor
NAL hearing" A medical journal sug-
gests that where employees must be
guided by sound signals, dullness OF
hearing may he quite as serious a mat

the entertainment given by Mrs. En-
ma futile James of Bath, at st. Cath

judging from the number present most
of them We're accepted.
The entertainment was called An
Evening With kipling," and consisted
of readings from his work and the
singing of his ballards which have
been set to music. A running sketch
of the authors life was also given.
The whole was very novel and very
interesting. Mrs. James is most
pleasing entertainer and a fine singer.
Her rendering of the poems and sketch
es was most excellent and was thor
oughly enjoyed by those present. A
more thorough knowledge of Kipling' S
life and understanding of his work was
gained.
This was the first of a series of SINH

in the series will be anticipated with

AN ABLE DRIVER.
How He Worked With His Two Intelligent
Horses.

on one Of Augustus hills was a big
team. the other day. The cart was
loaded and the weight was very well
up toward two tons. The horses We're
pair of big. round bodied, welI-fed
and well-cared-for bay horses that
looked as though they could pull a
house right off its foundations.
The driver was a calm. quiet man,
but evidently of good nature and good
humor. and on good terms with his
horses When he was all ready he got
up on his seat and gathered up the
reins, and looked down on his big
horses. They couldn't see him, but
their ears We're open. He said to them
in a quiet. easy sort of way and in
words that somehow seemed addressed
to the big horses. personally, Get to-
getner." and the big horses seemed to
understand that perfectly. to take it as
personal communication, and to
know what was meant. They got to-
gether. they settled into their collars
and started the big load right off.
Fifty feet up the hill, when they'd
got it well a-rolling. the driver says to
them in the same quiet way:
Get into it,
That didn't seem quite SO clear to
the bystander who heard it, but it was
clear enough to the horses, apparently.
for forthwith they began to trot; and
they took the load along in that way,
easy 1t was a big load. but they were
big horses, and on friendly terms with
the driver. and ready and willing to do
what they could right up to the limit;
an able team, and proud besides, to
pull for the man on the seat.

Speaking of runaways. a geptlernap
said. the other day, that it'was 4suaiiy
best to let them alone, unless there 10
someone in the team whose life ..is ii
danger. Generally efforts to stop q
frightened horse only increases hip
fright and makes him take q crooked
course, instead Of straight. one a. he
would naturally do if left alone. When
everyone is jumping out in front Iof
him and waving their arms or what
ever they happen to have In their
hand. it is almost impossible for. teams
in the way to tell where he will 20
next. and they cannot get out Of the
way or see their danger as well. Oc-
casionally slight effort well directed
will stop a runaway, but more often
the greatest skill and no small amount
of strength is required. and unless q
person has these he had better get out
OF the way and let the animal alone.
