BAD SAMARITANS.

Can the inhabitants of the is
land of Samar be called Samari-
tans? If so, instead of being Good
Samaritans they are very bad ones
from the way in which they are
Strengthening our troops who are
occupying their territory. But as
they are simply defending their
homes perhaps we ourselves by our
failure to act the part of the Good
Samaritan in relieving in salts
factory manner the stranger in dis
tress whom we found in the grasp
of the robber Spain, have made
them what they are. The Good
Samaritan did not make slave of
the poor man whom he found by
the road side and succored. We
have done that with our Samari-
tans and this is why they fight.
Like Kitchener in South Africa
with his bombastic proclamations

assured us that organized HOSTILE

that large island is in revolt and
heavy damage has been done to our
troops, that territory which was
considered conquered and pacified

but all the work must be done
over again.
There is evidently an under
ground telegraph connecting the
outside world with both the Trans

and It is being used by all the CIV
ilized world, except the parties in
terested, to inspire the inhabitants
of those countries with the deter

for their liberties. Kitchener with
1000 men in South Africa is
calling loudly for reinforcements

said that our war department. will

and probably this will mean the
general resumption of the war in
the so-called pacified districts.
There is said to he a growing
sentiment, with all parties
throughout the west, which was
once the main hot-bed Of the ex-
pansion idea in this country, that
the Filipinos be given absolute in
dependence. Presumably the rea-
son is that the islands have not
proven themselves as desirable for

MAURICE THOMPSON.

With the death of Maurice Thomp-
son, author Of "Alice of Old Vim
cennes," at his home in Charlottesville,
Ind, one Of the most brilliant lights
that ever shOne in the literary firma-
ment of Indiana disappeared, and a
career that was destined to outshine
some of the most prominent of latter
day litterateurs was cut short.
Maurice Thompson was born in Fair
field, Ind, In 1874, and in early life
removed with his parents to the south
ern part of Kentucky, and from that
State to the northern part of Georgia,
where he first attempted to describe
life as he knew it from observation.
Always lover of outdoor sports, he
cultivated many Of them in this sec
tion. and 1t was here that the dead au-
thor first learned the art of archery,
which. 1t is said, inspired his noted
work, "The Witchery of Archery"
which had so much to do with reviving
that game in this country.
He entered the Confederate army
when mere boy and obtained distinc-
tion as scout and for his well-known

NEW PROOF OF EVOLUTION.

Darwin's Theory. Sustained by Conn
pairing the Blood of Men and Apes.
The latest proof of the correctness Of
Darwin's assertion that there is near.
relation between man and ape is furni-
shed by discovery of the correspond
ence between the blood of man and the
ape
Blood exposed to the air coagulates-
forms jellylike mass. After a time
the coagulum contracts and expels a
perfectly clear fluid called serum.
Lately experiments with this natural
serum showed some queer results.
When the serum of rabbit was mixed
with the blood of an animal not closely
related to 1t, for instance guinea pig,
the blood corpuscles of the guinea pig
were thereby dissolved. But the serum
of the rabbit mixed with the blood of
closely related animal, hare, for in
stance, did not affect the blood of the
hare at all.
The serum of horse works no
change in the blood of the donkey, but
destroys (dissolves) the blood corpus
cles of the rabbit, lamb OF man. The
dog, fox and wolf readily permit ex-
change of blood, while the blood cor
puscles of the dog are dissolved by cat
serum. This, then, seemed to furnish
new and sure means for establishing
blood relationship between animals.
Experiments with human serum show
ed that it dissolves the blood corpuscles
of all vertebrates, also those of the
lower ape. But the experiments with
the higher apes gave different results.
Neither the blood corpuscles of the
Orang- -outang nor those of the gibbon
were dissolved by human serum, and
human blood was carried into the
blood course of chimpanzee without
In the least affecting the latter's con-
ditiOn.
These experiments serve to show
that the blood Of man and that of the
higher apes must be looked upon as
identical. 1t is absolutely sure that
none of the tested serum of animal re-
sembles the human blood as closely as
does the blood of those three apes-the
oi"'S ou'oh6, ShiIhpdhHcc anu SipuoH.
This highly interesting scientific dis
covery furnishes new proof for the pro-
bability of mans evolution from lower
animals. 1t throws some light on the
sorry experience had with TRANSMISSION
of animal blood in the blood suffering
human beings. Some scientists main
tain that the sheep and man, the calf
and man stand too far apart in the or
der of descent to permit intermixture
of their blood without harmful results.

about to come oan end. 1t was taken
for granted that DIR. Eek and Miss
Rhoads were to be married at last.
But they were mistaken. The great
stone house was never furnished or
occupied. Gradually the grass grew
tall and rank on the lawn, the bats and
owls invaded the empty mansion, and
the gates and fences fell into ruin.
Everybody called it "Eck's Folly" Still
the old physician kept up his regular
calls on Miss Rhoads, and she received
him with as much favor as ever. Final
ly the whole community settled down
to the belief that they would always
remain single. Then it was the doc
tors turn to get up little surprise on
his own account. One evening last
week he and Miss Rhoads were quiet
iy married and moved into the big
house on the hill. A force of painters
and decorators was put to work and

The presence of hundreds of young
sters Of all ages wearing glasses in our
public school should have admonished
the school authorities long ago that
present school methods or practices are
largely responsible for the impairment
Of the eyesight of children In many in
stances it is noted that before a child
has passed through the primary grades
1t Is found necessary to embellish it's
face with pair of spectacles. While
the present tendency to cover with
glasses the face of childhood may be
and persistence of eye specialists, 1t is
nevertheless a fact that in the large
percentage of cases there Is positive i'm
pairment of vision and the glasses are
Indispensable to study and to good
health. There is no longer any DISPOSE
tion to challenge the statement that
visual defects have positive and direct
effect upon the nervous organization,
interfering with digestion or heart ac-
tion or causing headaches and mental
depression. An investigation of the eye
sight, or visual acuity, of children in
the public schools of one city, has re-
suited recently in some important dis
closures, among them being the fact
that 81 per cent of the boys thus far ex-
amined have less than two-thirds of
the normal keenness of sight, while 81
per cent of the girls fall below two
thirds of normal. 1t is also ascertained
that the first three years of school life
increase eye defects one-third. The
marked increase I'm the visual defects
In the first three years of school life is
attributed to the greater concentration
of the powers of vision in the effort to
learn to read. In older persons, where a

fort to read Is not attended with much
eye strain, provided the type is of good
size. In children however, the eye must

lower grades are also due to the fact
that the primary rooms are invariably
the poorest lighted. When 1t Is known
that eye strain has deleterious effect
upon the general health and that eye
defects are uniformly accompanied by

many instances to dullness, 1t is easy
