Study what You NUT Affect.

Scientists now acknowledge that
education has most effect upon medi-
ocre minds. II can do a great deal
with them less for those who are de
fective, and still less for those highly
endowed; for talented persons, even
though they may receive all the usual
courses Of intellectual training, usually
educate themselves, says the Woman's
Home Companion. They gain their
most valuable education through the
exercise of their strongest faculties.
Work is their tutor and self-direction
their college.
Parents and tutors need to have a
care that their efforts TO be helpful 10
children do not interfere with the nat
ural development OF their faculties.
This is sometimes done through not
recognizing their special abilities, quite
frequently from wish to fix their des-
tinies Ia accordance with some conven-
ticnal standard. We should study the
individuality Of cur child from his
birth, so that we may avoid a waste
full employment of his energies in pur-
suits that are alien to his disposition
and foreign to his needs.

A new seure-all has come across the
ocean to this country, which in many
respects is as picturesque, jas the
Kneipp cure and which promises to
have as great a vogue. Fashionable
invalids in New York have taken it
up, and now 1t is spreading among the
great army of the sick and ailing in
other parts of the country. Like the
panacea of the Swiss priest, the new
cure taboos the use of medicines, but
its application requires no such incon-
venient procedure as walking barefoot
in wet grass in the early morning. Dis
ease. according to the new idea, is
mere matter of altered vibration. IL

Second OIensc.
When the Marquis de Mores took
possession of his 10000 acres in the
Bad Lands he proceeded to put up
barbed wire fences says G. w. Ogden
in Everybody's Magazine. O2e OF the
first to meet this innovation in the
Bad Lands was a hunter named Frank
O'Donnell He was heading in for the
river one day and almost fell from his
horse in astonishment when he saw
the new fence. So great was his sur
prise he could not call to his mind ap-
propriate oaths. He cut the wire and
rode on toward Medora in silence.
They told him there who was respon-
sible for the breach Of Bad Lands eti-
quette and he called on the marquis.
Say, pardner, what in the - DO you
mean by putting up that fence|' he
demanded, with an injured air. De
Mores replied that he was merely fenc-
ing his own property, as was custom
airy in civilized lands. well, ! Just
cut a gap in the blankety- blank thing
up yonder on the hill" said the hun
ter defiantly; that's the way I'll
treat your fence whenever it comes in
my way" THE next time you cut my
fence" De Mores said, without chang
ing color or showing the least sign OF
anger "I'll shoot you on sight" O'Don-
nell's jaw fell, and he looked in amaze
ment from one to another of the men
who stood around. Then ne mounted
his horse and rode away.
