A Rare Opportunity.

When the circus came to Bushby the
large attendance was a surprise to
Squire Bemis, and he said so to Will
liam Hamlin, the postmaster.
at is natural that men and children
should wish to &c" remarked the
squire in his formal tone, "but 1 must
confess to feeling Of amazement on
hearing that the ladies OF the town
had hocked to see wild beasts and that
young woman who leaps from one
wire to another with no regard for
her personal safety"
Tell you just how It's, square" said
Mr.. HamllD confdentially. 81 don't

one mail time and told Miss Emma
Bolles he understood the show was
enough to scare anybody out of ten

Almost pisbsIisv.d Her Ewes

Among the memories Of my boy
hood" said n New York man, there
is one odd episode that is particularly
vivid. 1t is a conversation that 1 over
heard one morning as I walked toward
the Boston high school between two
women.
'The women were talking about ba
bies-their size, weight, health, and Sc
forth.
why, when 1 was a week DID, said
the first woman, Il was such a little
baby that they put me in quart pot
and put the lid on over me-
''The other woman was amazed and
Mortified. And did you liver she
asked.
"'They say did, her friend an

"'Well, well, wellT exclaimed the
second woman. And she glanced at
the other almost dOubtfully."

HISTORIC WEAPONS.
Trophies Wrestsd From the Crusaders
Found In the Sudan.

Among the trophies Of arms display
sd on the walls of Windsor castle
one Of the most interesting Of the long
series is a group Of weapons and armor
sent to Queen Victoria by Lord Kitch
ener after the Dongom campaign on
the upper Nile in lSOG.
rhe trophy consists Of coat Of
chain mail. a number of spears and a
long cross hilted sword. on the
straight steel blade Of the sword there
is an Inscription in odd fashioned let
ters: "No me saques sin razOn. No me
entraines sin honor"
The words are Spanish, but the same
motto was inscribed on sword blades
in the days of chivalry in most of the
languages of Europe. Its meaning is
the knightly rule for all who bear the
sword Do not draw me without rea-
son. Do not sheathe me without honor.
The weapon was taken from the
abandoped camp Of Wad Bshara. the
dervish general after the battle of
Hafir Sept %, 1890. How came a
blade with such motto to be found
In a Moslem bivouac 10 the heart of
the Sudan?
The presence of these crusader
swords in the Sudan is not so difficult
to explain. In the thirteenth century
the Mohammedan caliphs of Egypt not
only carried on successful wars
against the crusaders in Syria, de-
stroying the last vestiges Of the Latin
kingdom of Jerusalem, but also de
feated two attempts of the Europeans
to invade Egypt itself, one Of them
led by st. Louis Of France.
Enormous quantities of western
arms and warlike equipments must
have thus passed into the possession
Of the MOhammedan conquerors.-

BABY TALK.
An Infantile Habit That Sometimes
Sticks and Breeds Trouble.

An Infantile Habit That Sometimes
Sticks and Breeds Trouble.
Once in awhile a rare stammering
case comes to the laboratory where
there's nothing the matter with the
child-the matter is with his dear
mamma In 1905 Or. Wilmer examin-
ed a boy of twelve who talked baby
talk-a bright, alert youngster, to all
appearances normal But nobody could
understand a word he uttered-except
mamma; she understood it all per-
fectly. "I-aw-Ow-ay" was to her
ear Il want TO go out to play" as
plain as anything could be. 1t was her
tender custom to reply likewise, and
she took pride in the thought that she
had never allowed her Willie to assO-
ciate with the children on the block
She had encouraged him to be her
baby and 'kept him from growing up
too soon" by prattling to him.
Except for his unintelligible Ian
guage the examination did not reveal
a defect, physical or mental, in the
boy, and Dr. Wilmer was forced to
the conclusion that the trouble lay in
the persistence of an infantile habit OF
articulation for which the mother was
solely responsible Through senti-
mentality and overindulgence "she had
almost ruined his chances for a use
full and possibly successful life"
Psychological clinic, March, 1907
Months of painstaking. expert labor
had to be expended upon him to break
up the habit his mother had carefully
developed before he could even begin
to make himself understood by any
one else.-Dr. Wilmer OF Yale In Nc

MAN AND MONKEY.
Difference Between the Human and
Animal Method Of Thought.

Difference Between the Human and
Animal Method Of Thought
The difference between the animal
and the human idea of what consti-
tutes knowing" comes out nicely In
a piece of work done at Clark univer-
sity-A. ]. Kinnman's study of rhesus
monkeys, the Bandar-log Of the Jun
gle Book"
The monkey, following the usual
procedure, learned to get his food
from a box. the lid of which fastened
with a key. The key, however, could
not be withdrawn from the lock-
After the monkey had become familiar
with the device and could operate it
as readily as man could do the ex-
perimenter took the key out Of the
lock and laid it on the floor in front
Of the box. The monkey picked up the
key, played with It, but made no at
tempt to use It. Then the experiment
er took up the key, and, fifty times I'm
succession, with the monkey two feet
away watching every motion. he un-
locked the box. The monkey would
have starved before he initiated that
simple act. He had learned to open
the box by making certain movements.
He had no idea of the key as an in
strument In the process. We some
times think instruments and means
and causes. The animal thinks large
ly motions.-E. T. Bronston in Nc
