WHAT BLUE EYES INDICATE.

The blue eyes indicate love and
sentiment. This eye belongs to the
temperate or colder regions and is
associated with temperate character.
1t may glow with love, but it never
burns with that consuming fame
which marks the torrid black. 1t has
amiable dispositions and tastes that
are refined, is mentally active and
usually of a versatile intellect. The
light eyed races have always attained
a higher degree of civilization than
the dark ones, and that which holds
true of nations will be found the same
in individuals.
The eyes which borrow their tint
from the summer sky dazzle and be-
wilder, whether flashing in scorn or
melting in sorrow. The large blue
eye is the type of purity and peace
and thrills the heart at a single glance.
1t has a meaning that you can never
forget and an expression which tells
of the trusting heart. 1t is the eye
which haunt's the lovers dream and
has perhaps been praised by poets
more than any other color. Even the
passionless Wordsworth has told us
"Those eyes, soft and capacious as
a cloudless sky, whose azure depths
their color emulates, must needs be
conversant with upward looks-pray-
er's voiceless service"

THE PREVIOUS QUESTION.

Old Senator Nesmith of Oregon,
one of the first settlers of the state,
used to tell this story: At the time
when Oregon was admitted as a state
and the first legislature of the state
met, Nesmith, who was a member,
possessed himself of copy of book
on parliamentary procedure. This
work, which was at the time proba-
bly, the only one of its sort west of
the Mississippi, he studied diligently
and by the time of the first session
was we'll up in the rules of debate.
At the first meeting of the new
legislature motion was introduced
and speedily carried, but on the Sec
ond measure a dispute arose, and for
three days the state legislators wran-
gled and debated.
Finally, on the third day, Nesmith,
who had watched the proceedings
without even opening his mouth, de-
cided it was time to use piece of his
parliamentary procedure, so he rose
and moved the previous question.
There was moment of silence fol-
lowing this motion, and then amid a
shout of derision the speaker cried:
"Sit down, you fool We passed
the previous question three days
ago I"

1.-THE Harp That Once Through Tara's Halls,
Jim Crow" and "Annie Laurie" too
And, answering its bugle calls,
The old times rise for me and you.
'Then You'll Remember Me" It plays
And straight our memories go back
Through all the dead years mellow haze,
With frequent pause along the track.
And then we see the grass grown streets,
The orchards cleaning in the sun,
Where grooming bees seek out the sweets
And shadows DER the grasses run.
We see the flash of merry eyes;
We see the CLEAN Of Oldtime smiles;
And ere the oldtime music dies,
We live again the oldtime whiles.
We walk the pathway in the lane,
And day-dream as we used to then,
For on the ripping old refrain
The old times come to life again.
Play Old hand organ in the street,
Play every song we used to sing,
And let our hearts in cadence beat
With each glad memory they bring.
Play, in your halting. careless way,
The fine old tunes that softly tell
OF every God made happy day
In those old times we love so well.

1NocULATION IN ENGLAND.


1t was Lady Mary Wortley Mon
tagu who introduced inoculation for
smallpox in England. While resi-
ding in Belgrade in I7I7 she saw the
Turks practice 'engrafting," as they
called it, to produce mild form of
smallpox and stay its ravages. She
examined the process and, being con-
vinced of its efficacy, applied it to her
three-year-old son. On her return
to England she introduced it in Lon
don. At that time-it, WAS computed
that one person in every seTeenn-adaaeedd-
of the smallpox. Yet she was oppos-
ed by the entire medical faculty. By
order of government an experiment
was made upon FIVE persons then un-
der sentence of death, and it proved
perfectly successful.
Put instead of Lady Mary being ac-
knowledged as a public benefactor
she was prosecuted with the most re-
1entless hostility. The faculty rose
to a man against her. Even the
clergy descanted on the awful impiety
of seeking to take events out of the
hands of Providence. The common
people were urged to hoot her as an
unnatural mother who had risked the
lives of her own children. However,
the Princess of Wales, afterward
Queen Caroline, stood her friend, and
truth and reason finally prevailed.
It was about the year 1852 that Lady
Montagu was honored by monument
erected to commemorate England's
gratitude to her for introducing iroc-
ulation.
DR.. Edward Jenner substituted
cowpox inoculation in 1899. He 1iv-
ed to be rewarded by parliament by
grant of 10, 900 pounds and later by
a second grant Of 1000, pounds and
in 1858 statue was erected to him
in London. Only bare credit was
vouchsafed to Lady Mary Wortley
Montagu, who bore all the persecu-
ton without any of the pecuniary re-
ward she was entitled to and by no
means fair share of the glory.
