Ask .why,,,

II boys could learn at school oil about
education, that would only leave them
very dull persons. The object OF their
education at school Is to give boys men,
tai alertness and an eternal curiosity,
and its real test is whether It leaves
them always saying to themselves.
"Why?" 1 do not know whether you
have aver thought about 1t, but all the
great discoveries OF the world have
come because some one has asked that
question. The records Of industry show
nothing more clearly than that all real
mental skill depends on asking ques.
tons. The answer is sure to follow.
The real mental capacity is not dis.
played by the man who answers the
question. but by the man who asks IT.

The weeping willow tree came to
America through the medium of Alex
ander Pope, the poet, who planted a
willow twig on the banks OF the Thames
at his Twickenham villa. The twig
came to him in a box OF fgs sent from
Smyrna by a friend who had lost all in
the south sea bubble and had gone to
that distant land to recoup his fortunes,
A young British officer who came to
Boston with the army to crush the re-
bellion of the American colonies brought
with him a twig from Pope's now beau,
tiful willow tree. intending TO plant II
in America when he should comforta-
bly, settle down IN lands eoniscated
from the conquered Americans. The

on his Abingdon estate. in Virginia. II

SEA-SICK
Lady Becomes on Street Car From
Depot.

Coming from the morning accom-
mediation train from the west this
morning a lady passenger experienced
what might be termed sea-sickness on
the street car. She grew deathly sick
and had to be assisted to the front
vestibule, where she derived advantage
from the air. The motion of the car
or the heat was the cause of her i'll
ness. She soon revived and was in
normal state when she left the car at
the Traders corner.
