Enur O'CIoCk.

The hour of 4 a. m. has something
mysterious about it. Cocks crow. peo-
pie on the brink Of death give up the
ghost, everyone who is asleep sleeps
sounder, and even the watchful sentry
can't always keep his eyes open.
At this hour people are in their weak
est state, and, if life is just ON the flick
er, 1t is not surprising that 1t goes out.
Many mans life has been saved by
spoonful of brandy or ammonia admin
istered just when the cock strikes 4.
The period Of deepest s'eep varies
from o'clock to 5. An hour or two
after going to bed you sleep very sound
ly; then your slumber grows gradually
lighter, and it is easy enough to waken
you at / or o'clock. But when o'clock
comes you are in such a state of SOM
nolence that you would take no notice
of the end of the world.

Strangely, at the corresponding time
in the afternoon, most people feel a bit

no man has really lived unless he has
belonged to such an organization at
some period in his life. There was
great rivalry between the band that
/ was a member of and one In an adj
joining town. When the rivalry was
at white heat a band contest was held
in a neighborlng town. We were both
entered in the same class. and only ask
ed for a free field and no fav0rs.
"Now. the class that we were entered
in called for bands having at least six
teen members. and the best we could do
after securing the town for talent was
fifteen men who understood how to
push wind through brass instruments
and have il resemble music. We were
in despair until conceived a happy
idea. There was an odd character liv-
ing in the town whom every one called
George. He was only half-witted. and
had sttayhed himself to cur band. max

LEFT AND RIGHT HANDEDNEss.


Explained by Anatomical Reasons for
Same Quality in Eyes.
1t is a well-known fact that the
stronger activity of the nerves of the
right half of the body (for not only the
hand is concerned) must be ascribed
to a preponderance of the left side of
the brain, whose finer development, es-
pecially as the seat of the center of
speech, is a matter of common knowl-
edge, says the London Optician.
In paper by DR.. Luddeckens in the
Allemeines Journal der Uhrmacher-
kunst valuable information regarding
the causes of the unequal working of
the two hemlspheres of the brain is fur
nished. A sketch touching on the his
tory of evolution leads from the orig
inal symmetry Of the organism to a
subsequent disymmetrical arrangement
of the heart and the large blood YES
sells, from which 1t follows quite nat
urally that the two halves Of the head
are not placed on an equal footing as
regards the distribution Of the blood,
and consequently of the blood pressure,
and that, on the contrary, there must
be, under normal conditions, a stron-
ger pressure on the arteries of the left
side of the head.
This theory is borne out by we'll
known experiences Of anatomists and
pathologists and a series of interesting
observations. OF especial interest is
the effect of the higher blood pressure
upon the left eye. DR.. Luddeckens
found in the latter. as compared with
the right one, in surprisingly large
number of cases, narrower pupil In
consequence Of a more filled-up con.
dition of the vessels of the iris, and
upon closer examination shorter con.
struction of the eyeball. This furnishes
reason for the fact that in large num-
Der Of persons the left eye is the bet
ter one. Thus the finer development
of the left half of the brain is explain
ed very simply by the fact that 1t Is
better supplied with the blood, and the
question why 1t is the seat Of the cen
ter of speech, and why most people
are right-handed is solved In the mos
natural manner.
1t is striking how true a reflection Of
1.-THE conditions described is afforded by
the examination of left-hande9 persons
In many cases a redder color was no

other parts of New England. Here In
1S00-on May 8, to be exact-the future
martyr was born. The first five years
of his life were spent within its shelter.
The Browns had more or less claim to

less than six generations having TILED

In 1905 owen Brown forsook the East

son received his early education. In

army with provisions, the Brown fam

In the subsequent stormy years OF MS

of losses. Said Philippe at nelmonico's:
"If one of, cur walters constantly

His Generosity.

An amusing story Is told by the Bap-
tist Commonwealth of a bazaar held in
Western city. Among the features
of the entertainment was a refreshment
stall, to which charitable donors con-
tributed supplies. in order that all the
money taken In might represent clear
profit.
The lady in charge requested a gift
for this purpose from Mr.. Billings, a
man who was both well known and
wealthy, but not famous for liberal
giving. To her surprise she received
next day note to the effect that he
was sending her a sirloin of beef and
two on tongues.
The same morning the lady happened
to go to her butcher, who also sup
piled the family of Mr.. Billings with
meat, aud after giving him a large or
der for her stall, she asked If he him
self would not like to give her some
thing.
81 should, very much, ma'am," re-
piled the butcher, but yesterday gave
to Mr.. B llings at his request, for this
very purpose, sirloin Of beef and three
OK tongues"

WHY We Need Hobbies.

Business is not inseparable from
higher things. Men may be born gro.
GERS, but need not live only as grOceTs.
Solon and Thales, wise men of the
Greeks, were merchants; Plato peddled
oil; Spinoza, the philosopher, mended
spectacles. Linnaeus was a cObbler as
well as a botanist. Shakespeare prided
himself more upon his success as a
stage manager than as a dramatist.
Spenser was a sheriff. 1t might require
a rather strong wrench Of the imagina-
ton to imagine sheritfs Of to-day writ
ing another "Faerle Queen"-but why?
Milton taught school, as have almost all
great men. Walter Scott the wizard of
the North, was circuit clerk and prac-
tical man of affairs; Grote was a Lon
don banker, Ricardo a stock jObber and
Sir Isaac Newton master Of the English
mint. Paul was a tent-maker and the
Great Gentleman an apprentice at a
carpenters bench.

SKILLED IN MANY SPORTS.

Left Handed People Are Proficient in
Ways that Astonish One.
1t is not wise to poke fun at a left
handed boy or girl. They may develop
qualities that are unattainable by those
who use their right hands preferably.
Children who have fallen into this hab-
1t of using their left hands should not
be taught to do violence to a strongly
implanted instinct and use the right
hand whether they will or no. Such
a training not only inh!cts upon the
child useless amount Of hardship
and inconvenience, but may do him Sc
rIous injury, e"7n 30 depriving him
of the power Of 81 eech.
According to the latest scientific dis
coveries all manner of havoc may be
wrought with the brain by the adop-
ton of this mistaken method of teach
ing left-handed children to use the right
hand.
This discovery is the result OF expert
ments lately made at the University of
Chicago, which has gone more deeply
into the modern subject of "child
study" than most of the universities. 1t
is Professor Smedley, director of the
department of pedagogical investiga-
ton, who has made the most fruitful
.exneriments with the t-handed.
He discovered that by far the great
er majority of mothers looked upon
left t-handedness as a defect to be over
come at any cost and that the child
was in consequence forced into a Isl
uncongenial system of training. The
greater number of children so trained
SAYS Professor Smedley, are defective
in speech. BY endeavOring to substi
tute the use Of the right hand the nice
balance of the brain is disturbed ant
besides producing far less manual dex
terity the power Of speech may also b'
impaired.
1t is also a matter Of record that left
handed persons are in games Of skill
more proficient than those who arr
right handed.

Du MAURIER'S NOVELS.
