EFFORTS OF DULL CHILDREN.
Illustrative Example Of the Amusing
Results of Attempts at Mental
Exercise.

Sometimes the statements made by
dull children are amusing. A friend
of mine had in her physiology class a
boy who had fondness for long W ords,
but very little understanding OF the
subject ne was studying, says writer
In School and Home Education. In sn
examination he had been asked the
question: What are some of the re-
suits of breathing impure air?'
Joe wrote: In response to question
number one would say l never breeth
impure air and don't remember the
anser. Insted l will tell mans great
powers of persition and illustrate my
statemunts by diergrums. When man
stands he should take the puppen-
diclar persition When he leans he
should take the slantendiclar persi-
ton l. When he lays down he should
take the horryzondiclar persition -.
When he sets down the most helthiest
persition is mixed slantendiclar, hor-
ryzondiclar and puppendiclar. If we
take these perSitions we can generally
breeth pure air pervided there is any
on the hemmyspeer around us"
The conclusions drawn by dull chill
dren are often ridiculous. Probably
we have all heard the story of the lit
tie boy whose mother wanted him to
go to the store to get a pound of sugar.
CHANGING at the clock, he replied: "Oh,
can't go, III be late at school," Then,
seeing the disappointment on her face,
he added: well, never mind, III run
down and get half pound"

British automobile drivers have
adopted one Of the oldest supersti-
lions of folklore in connection with
their very modern craft. The auto
mobilsts insure good luck by suspend
ing from their cars a perforated stone,
which is supposed to act as protec-
tive amulet. For the stone to be an
effective protection it is essential that
the perforation should be formed nat
urally and not bored artificially, aud
the stone must be found without be-
Ing looked for.

The Tall AM the Hide.

Emigrants from the continent Of Eu-

their arrival the London butchers sold
their bullocAs' hides with the tails on.

What is Fortune Telling?
What is ~Palmistry?
What is PhrenoIogy?

Fortune telling is the art of de-
~lineating character. to tell the past,
present and future. and if practiced
Alright does as much good as relig-
ion; but if practiced wrong does as
much harm as murder.
Palmistry is a science and a stu
dy of the lines in the hand and the
hand as a whole. Phrenology is al
so a science and a study of the head
and the bumps thereon.
But Palmistry is more adapted to
the reading of ones life than any
other mode that l know of. because
there are more nerves leading from
the brain to the center or palmies
plesus of the hand than my other
part of the body.
There is not a motion that the
brain does or thinks that the hand
doesn't do. For instance. if you
should think about a man across the
street the hand would naturally
point or move in that direction.
There are no two hands alike. Ev-
cry hand is different. even your
own, and the lines come and go,
change as your ideas change. No
mar can tell a lie and keep his
hands open. You can take a saw
age and look in his hand and o
will find three lines. heart. head and
life lines. You can take a baby two
months old and you will find the
same three lines. which goes to
prove, as folks say, that the lines
are NJ caused by opening and clos
ing of the hand. Take the baby,
and Is it grows older and begins to
have a mind of its own you will find
more lines begin to show. Every line
has a meaning. still no one line
means any one thing. Everything
proves itself in Palmistry.
Palmistry is more adapted to tell
ing of your past. present and future
than any mode that l know of be-
cause if you can't see the lines with
the naked eye you can use a magni-
flying glass. whereas in phrenology
the representations depend on the
sensitive touch of the fingers. and if
there is a large growth of hair it is
very hard for him to determine &C
curately. But in Palmistry you see,
and seeing they say is believing.
