An ideal R f d route, and one
that would serve Il large scope OF

At ten years old, or somewhat later,
Tom Smith resolved to be Dictator;
But at fifteen was quite content
With being one day President.
At twenty all his mind WIS set
On Congress or tie Cabinet.
At thirty, having grown much
wiser,
He tried to run for Supervisor;
He had (and paid for) an ovation
But failed TO get the nomination.

With temper 'riIed" and wallet

That he will die a simple eager.

In School

There are many children in
school, who need glasses but not
wearing them. There is no time i'll life
when the eyes ought to receive such
careful attention as through school years.
The muscles are not fully develop
ed gradual changes are taking
place in the eye-ball, and the work is
close and combining. IF there is ten
dency to defective vision, it can be check
ed better at this time than any other.
Wearing glasses constantly in after life
may be avoided. If the child seems to
have difficulty in seeing the characters
upon the blackboard, or if he holds his
book too close or too far away, there is
a defect. Ifit seems to be an effort for
him to study; if he has headache great
deal; if he is drowsy CT listless; if his
ewes are inflamed or irritated, he needs
glasses. The sooner the eyes have at.
tention the better it will be for him all
tGrough life. See me about it.

Music and Character.

Herbert Spencer considers that the
taste for music. which S largely emo
tional. is in so full sense test of
character that IL Is inherited with Gu
mulative intensity by successive gen
erations This naturally leads us on
TO the conclusion that races are more
intimately affected by it's charms than
individuals.
To take particular ir stance. we can
but notice that the Germans, who,
with few exceptions. ire musical to
their finger tips. are in consequence
notable for habitual cheerfulness and
for other moral qualities which give
tone to their domestic life.
We may notice. on the other hand.
that love of music Goes not neces-
sarily go with artistic sense or strength
OF character. The Russians are most
musical. but they have not. as a rule,
any marked appreciation of art. while
the Japanese. whose delicate instinct
for art is proverbial. are but little in.
fiucnccd by music \c-O's devotion Ia
his fiddle and Napolcon's indifference
to music are also instances that there
is no general rule on this point.

storie. of Artemu. wnrd.

When Artcmus Wards business nan
ager once asked him about his Puri-
tanic origin he replied, Il think we
came from Jerusalem. for my fathers
name was Levi. and we had Moses
and n Nathan In the family. but my
poor brothers name was Cyrus. so
perhaps that makes us Persians."
When the humorist began his lecture
he would sometimes describe II by
saying. "One of the features of my
entertainment Is that IL contains so
many things that don't have anything
TO do with IT," and in the middle OF
his lecture he would stop and say:
lowing TO slight indisposition. we
will now have an intcrmission of fif-
teen minutes"
The audience would begin to feel
uncomfortable at the thought of star
ing at vacancy for that time. when.
rubbing his hands, the lecturer would
continue. But, all will occupy the
intermission by telling few stories"
II Is said that even his business let
tiers were eccentric and that once in
writing To publisher who had made
some alterations In his manuscript he
said. The next book | write I'm 60
