The merchant became very, anxious
for he feared the man had found out
that his elephant was not worth much
He took him aside and whispered in
his ear: 81 see customer coming
Do not say word until i have solo
the beast, and 1 win give you ~
rupees" The man looked at the mer
chant and wonderingly complied with
his request. 1t happened that tht
customer had more money than sense
so he was easily taken in When thu
bargain was completed and the. ele
plant led away by its new owner, tn
merchant handed the 80 rupees t.

seen, and wanted to know whicl
was the head and which was the tail.

Origin Of Right Randedness.

According to one good authority, DR.
Cunningham Of London. right handed
ness is of great antiquity and was at
tanned in the ordinary evolution of man
by natural selection. But the condition
does not reside in the right arm itself,
for all the evidence goes to show that
it is due to functional pre-eminence OH
the left side Of the brain. This SD.
periority of the left brain rests upon
some structural foundation, the origin
Of which is not explained, but which
is transmitted from parent to offspring.
Left handedness is due to the trans
ference of this structural popularity
from the left to the right side Of the
brain or, more probably, to transpo-
sition of the cerebral hemispheres. like
that which sometimes occurs In the
thoracic and abdominal viscera.

general assembly of Colorado for the pub
lie lands convention, 10 be held in Den
Yer June is, 10 and 20. declared today that
there shall be no politics injected into

ne sent out the call he distinctly and
emphatically stated the purpose of the
convention was in no way 10 antagonize
president and his administration with ref
erence TO the public land question. The
program prepared for the convention by
a committee, of which United States SEN
ator Teller is chairman, provides for the
shaping of more liberal policy to be
submitted to congress for the enactment
OF laws which will make for the devel-
oPment of the western states by bringing
more people to them. to take up lands and
till them.
The American National Stockgrowers'
association, whose last convention en-
dorsed the grazing and forestry policies
of the administration. will be a factor in
the coming convention.
Secretary T. w. Tomlinson of the asso-
citation has been making a canvass by
letter of the members on the questions 10
come before the convention. Some of the
questions he put them were:
Do you favor some form of government
control of the grazing lands under reg
uiations that will fit the conditions for
your dlstrict?"
What arrangements will be best suited
TO your seetion-an absolute lease of the
fencing rights or a permit to run live
stock on the public lands with proper pro-
tectiOn?"
Are you familiar with the system of
general grazing live stock or forest re-
serves, and do you approve it? If not,
what are your objections and what would
you suggest o.
To 1000 letters Mr. Tomlinson has re-
eeived nearly 300 replies, and they are
favorable to some plan OF government
control and regulation of all public lands
In nine cases out of ten. Most of them
want the government leasing system with
fencing privileges. Some want grazing
permits from the government. Ninety
per cent of them believe that the govern
ment control will give the little as well as
the big stock growers a square deal. So
favorable have been the replies to the
administrations policies that the big
stock association is now considered to be
fully enlisted in the championship of
the presidents cause.
