KINDNESS TO ANIMALS
TAUGHT TO SCHOOL CHILDREN
Classes Organized by Philadelphia
Teachers - Accident Brigades
Formed and Relief Stations
Established.

Inspired by Governor Pennypacker
the somewhat eccentric executive OF
the Keystone State, the school teach
ers of Philadelphia are organizing
kindness to animal" classes, and are
teaching the boys and girls under
their care to regard dogs. cats and
horses as creatures to be ministered to
by superior beings of the twolegged
variety. This teaching is diametrically
opposed to the ideas of the boy of half
OF the school world which has always
regarded a stray dog or a suffering
cat as legitimate game and a heaven
sent target for any handy missile. By
degrees, however, this deeply-rooted
idea is being eliminated from the
minds of the school boys of Philadel
phia, and in its place is being planted
a Good Samaritan feeling toward do
nestle pets of all kinds.
1t does not take long for a new idea
TO get possession of the active mind
Of youth, If it is fostered in the right
way. and already bands of boys may be
seen searching the alleyways and va
cant lots in the vicinity of the public
schools of the Quaker City in search of
not a trembling victim of their uner.
ring aim, but a cat or dog that is In fit
condition to be transported to the
school house for care and attention
from the Kindness to Animals Acct
dent Brigade.
The boys and girls are being taught
how to handle a wounded or sick kit
ten or stray dog that has tried con
clusions with a trolley car and come
off the worse for it. II a doormat can
be procured. the Kindness to Animals
boys and girls are told to use this to
carry the animal to the relief station.
If no mat is obtaiuable, then the boys
and girls improvise stretcher by
using their coats or a piece of burlap
nailed to two broom handles.
The teachers are appealed to when
the sick or injured animal is brought
to the school house, and usually n ses-
sion is held for the purpose of showing
the boys and girls how to proceed in
relieving the suffering of the patient.
Frequently it happens that the cat or
dog is suffering only from starvation or
thirst. and its troubles are speedily al
leviated by little milk or some PROV
ender from the luncheon baskets. If
It is injured, however, the boys and
girls are shown how to administer first
aid to the injured treatment, and the
patient is then sent to the nearest vet
Urinary for expert attention.
As a result of this crusade in favor
of kindness to animals there have
been provided innumerable drinking
troughs, at which homeless cats and
dogs may assuage their thirst. Outside
the houses the boys and girls
who are learning to regard
homeless cats and dogs as
creatures appealing to their sympathy
drinking receptables are now found,
and these are filled daily by the mem
bers of the family No cat or dog
needs go thirsty in Philadelphia, and if
it will only lift up its voice loud
enough to protest, no animal need lack
square meal.

Look Pleasant"

What would be the effect upon civil
ization if everybody would keep con
stantly in mind that suggestion of the
photographer, Look PLEASANT" The
most difficult part of the photograph
er's work is the effort to get the sub
ject before the camera to rid himself
of the cold. stiff. set expression of his
face and to replace it by genial,
kindly look or smile. He is not will
ing to reproduce the sitter until he sue
ceeds, because he knows that the
change of expression will transform
the photograph.
How the habit of looking pleasant
would revolutionize our natures, and
civilization itself! Ii we could only
get rid of the hard, eager, worried look
habitual to many of us, not for the few
seconds we stand before the camera
but for all our lives, how bright the
world would grow!-O. S. Marden in
Success Magazine.

MUSIC'sQUEER POWER
SOME NOTES HAVE REALLY MAR
VELOuS EFFECT.
Scientists Explain the Fall of the
Walls of Jericho by This Singular
Phenomena-Resu of lnVestiea-

II you happen to have little musi-
Gale some night and picture should
come falling from the wall or statue
should totter and tumble from its
base when one of the sololsts reaches
high key don't be alarmed or re-
gard the incident as an evil omen,
says the Brooklyn Eagle. 1t is only
a freak of music. Several thousand
years ago a similar occurrence took
place, only of course. it was on more
extended scale and made a great deal
mere talk than the falling of your pic
tu.,e or your statue would make. Inc
occurrence in question was the fall
ing of the walls of Jericho when
Joshua's soldiers marched around
them and blew their trumpets. A good
many people class this as a miracle,
but scientists say 1t was simply one
of the many phenomena caused by
musical notes They refer to a paral-
lei case that happened not long ago at
Heiligenstart, near Leipsic. music
master of that place was organizing
brass band. One day, as usual, he
gathered his musicians for practice in
his garden. which was situated at the
foot of the ancient walls OF the city.
Suddenly. while the trumpets had
reached their highest notes, the city
walls fell with a terrific crash and
the musicians scattered in panic.
There is some scientific reason for
this. but nobody seems to know just
what it is 1t is not the forceful VI
bration of air currents for the detona-
q
power in this respect that is eNerted
by light musical notes. There Is
some peculiar combination of the
notes that causes the ruin of the walls
some unknown force that is as pow
erful as blast of dynamite. 1t is not
an unusual thing for glass to be
shattered in room where musicale
is being held, and for other remark
able mechanical effects to be produc-
ed But the mechanical effects are
not the only curious results of this
uneXplainable combination of notes
So many wonderful things have been
produced by music that II may be
rirhtfully classed as one of the mys-
terics. Numerous Investigations in diff
ferent lines of endcayor have been
made as 10 its power and capabilities
ana in nearly every instance the re
suits have been startling'
One of those who have made n
study of the curiositlcs and the mys-
teries of music is Mrs Amelia Wood
Holhrook of New York Mrs. Holbrooli
is a playwright. lecturer and author,
and she has probably made greater
and more painstaking research into
the mysteries of music than any other
person in this country. She is mem
ber of the Professional Woman's
league and several other clubs, and
her investigations into the science of
music have made her well known in
All parts of the United States.

of himself; he also disliked to assist
the students in any personal way. and
was noted for propounding difficult
questions during examination.
One day, after lengthy lecture, one

walked up to the professor and asked
him to explain why his theory of a
certain phenomenon should be accept

also gave his reason for believing an

FROM SAME BOX
Where the Foods Come From.

Look here, waiter, honest now,
don't you dip every one of these faxed
breakfast foods out of the same box?"
well. yes, boss, we duz, all 'cept
Grape Nuts, cause that don't look like
the others and people know 'zackly
what Grape-Nuts looks like. But
there's bout dozen different ones
named on the bill of fare and they are
all thin rolled flakes so 1t don't make
any difference which one man calls
for, we just take out the order from
one box"
This talk led to an investigation.
Dozens of factories sprung up about
three years ago. making various kinds
of breakfast foods. seeking to take the
business of the original prepared
breakfast food-Grape-Nuts These
concerns after precarious existence,
nearly all failed leaving thousands OF
boxes of their foods in mills and ware
houses. These were in several In
stances bought up for a song by spec
ulators and sold out to grocers and
hotels for little or nothing. The proc
eSs of working off this old stock mas
been slow. One will see the names
on menus of faxed foods that went
out of business a year and half or
two years ago. In few cases where
the abandoned factories have been
bought up. there is an effort to resus-
citate the defunct, and by copying the
style of advertising of Grape-N Nuts,
seek to Influence people to purchase
But the public has been educated to
the fact that all these thin faxed
foods are simply soaked wheat or oats
rolled thin and dried out and packed.
They are not prepared like Grape
Nuts. in which the thorough baking
and other operations which turn the
starch part of the wheat and barley
into sugar, occupy many hours and re-
suit in food SO digestible that small
infants thrive on it, while 1t also CON
tains the selected elements of Phos-
phate of Potash and Albumen that
unite in the body to produce the soft
gray substance in brain and nerve
centers. There's a reason for Grape
Nuts, and there have been many imi-
tations, few OF the article itself, but
many more of the kind and character
of the advertising. Imitators are al
ways counterfeiters and their printed
and written statements cannot be ex-
pected to be different than their
goods.

Postum Co. at Battle Creek. Addition.

Poor Papa! /!

Clinton Rogers Woodruff told this
story at the banquet of the America
Periodical Publishers association at
Lakewood recently.
1t was in the evening of April Fools
day, and certain innocent little boy
named Willie felt that he was in a po.
sition to play good joke on his
mother. Looking excited as possible,
he went to her and said: "Oh, mann
ma. There's a strange man in the
lower hall holding Julia (their upstairs
maid) on his lap and kissing her like
fun"
Indeed" exclaimed his mother, in
dignantly fiouncing toward the stair
way. Il will put a stop to that at
once!"
"Oh. April fool, mammal" said VIII
