Why We Arc All Mimies.

"s1f we did not cough in church, the
human race would not exist" And the
professor, twiddling a piece Of chalk
tn his hand, regarded the sophomores
with a quizzical smile.
''What I mean," he continued, "is
that the cause Of coughing is the cause
Of our survival. That cause Is MINI
1cry. Mim1cry is a better life preserver
than feetness or strength. For by
mimicry We manage not to attract at
tention, and in prehistoric times they
who attracted attention were hunted
down by the tribe and roasted for din
ner or hunted down by the saber tooth
tiger and taken raw.
"Since those dark days mimicry has
been instructive with US. Mimicry is
what causes us to follow the fashions.
It causes US, when in England, to say
'cawn't' and 1awf.' If your friend
yawns, you yawn-that's mimicry. If
he laughs, you laugh-mimicry again.
If he snufdes, you snufle-mimicry.
And if he coughs in church, straight
way you and all the rest Of the con-
gregation cough, the reason being the
same one which saved our forefathers
from extermination."-New York Press.

Famous EloQuers,

Among English schoolmasters whose
names have come down to posterity
with the dubious reputation of great
foggers DR.. Busby of Westminster
school is the generally acknowledged
chief.
OF him it is recorded that, one Of his
head boys having insulted young
French viscount who came to the
school to demand satisfaction, be fog
ged the viscount first for the blood
thirsty intentions and next his friend
who was the bearer Of his challenge.
DR.. Valpy, too, who edited an edition
Of the classics, was a potent wielder Of
the rod. Archdeacon Groom, who was
a pupil Of his, tells story in illustra.
ton of his prowess. One Of the boys
had been fogged by the redoubtable
dominic, and the lads father came to
complain.
"Sir," said Valpy to him, Il hogged
your son because he richly deserved it.
If he again deserves It, shall fog
him again, and," rising, If you come
here, sir, interfering with my duty
shall fog you."

St. Augustine and His Flower.

st. Augustine Of Hippo, the great
doctor of the church, whose festival
falls on Aug. @28, is sadly neglected
saint among modern ritualists and even
occasionally confused with his name
sake, who insulted the British bishops.
Yet he is pronounced by Hooker with
out any equal' and regarded by Har
mack as 1.-The first modern man." He
has been better honored in the floral
world, for to him is dedicated the
goldenrod, or woundwort (Solidago vir-
ga-aurea). Old Gerard, with whom
this was favor1te remedy, tells US
that goldenrod fetched high price as
foreign herb until discovered grow
ing near London, when the plant was
neglected. He adds the caustic COM
ment, "This verifeth our English prov
erb, Far fetcht and dear boughte Is
best for ladies' or for fantastical ply
sttions." Before tobacco the golden
rod also furnished snuff for our medi-
aeval forefathers. - Westminster Ga

Hard on the MESSENGER,

Tommy had been spanked by Miss
Manners, his first grade teacher, but
his next teacher had not reached the
point where she felt she could do JUS
tice to him in spite of all his naughti-
ness.
"Send him to me when you want
him spanked" said Miss Manners one
morning after her colleague had re
lated his MANY nisdcmeanors.
About Ii O'Clock Tommy appeared
at Miss Manners door. She dropped
her book, grasped him firmly by the
hand, led him to the dressing room,
turned him over her knee and admins
tered punishment.
When she had finished she said,

It Did Not Work.

Mr.. seabury and his wife were on
the point Of moving to another fat.
Both Of them were anxious that the
transfer should be made at the least
possible expense, and the nearness Of
the new home promised materially to
further this aim.
II can carry loads Of little things
over in my brown bag" announced
Mrs. Seabury, 'and you can take

In discussing further the matter Of
transportation Mrs. Seabury remarked
that Notwithstanding the heat she
could wear her winter coat over, leave
it and return for her spring coat. The
idea charmed her impractical husband

He Was Very Charitable.

Among the features Of a charity
bazaar held in London was refresh

contributed supplies, thus enabling all
the takings to represent clear profits.
The lady in charge requested gift for
this purpose from a we'll known and
wealthy gentleman in the city, but one
not famous for "parting." To her sur
prise she received next day a note to
the effect that he was sending her a

IS BEMlDJI NEGLECTlNG
ITS SCHOOL CHILDREN
Cities All Over the United States are Taking up the
Matter Of Testing Eyes.-Bemidji Parents
Should Attend to This. ">'

Children going to school should
have their eyes examined by a CON-
petent specialist to discern the
exact state or condition their eyes
are in when commencing school.
We kindly solicit your fair, impair
tial judgment in this matter to deter
mine for yourself what would be the
greatest advantage for your children.
We judge that every child should
have his eyes examined each and
every year and that the examination
should be performed by one who
makes a specially of and having the
proper qualifications to perform this
delicate work.
So many people have neglected
having their eyes properly examined
by specialist for several reasons.
First, they think it will cost too
much to 60 to specialist; second,
they think that if they 60 to a
specialist glasses will always be pre-
scribed, whether they are really
necessary, or not; and in this way
the eyes of many children have been
neglected and consequently there
are children who are dull in school
for the reason that their eyes are
not in a position to handle the work
without fatigue.
It is a we'll known fact that child
rem are not able to withstand the
work they are compelled to perform
as we'll as a person of matured age.
The eyes of children are soft and
pliable and easily stretched out of
shape and parallelism. When this
deformity has once started it will,
without question increase the strain
and finally come to a stage when

clerical work is intolerable and the
vision greatly reduced, and the child
is unable to perform any work.
School chlldren's eyes should be
examined carefully by specialist
every year before entering school
and if the eyes are found not in a.
normal condition proper glasses
should be fitted that will correct
the deformity and relieve unnatural
strain, thereby stopping the defect
from increasing and in many cases
bringing the eyes to normal con-
dition.
Parents and guardians are
responsible for the welfare of the
cnildren's eyes and should con-
slider small defect and have same
properly treated before it is too
late.
Here are some questions that
should be considered by every
school teacher:
Is the child behind in its studies?
Is the child dull and stupid?
Is the child subject to headaches?
Is the child hard of hearing?
Does it ask many questions?
All these and many more are
matters that come up daily with
school children while at their studies.
If the child is unable to under
stand clearly and see plainly, it
should occupy seat towards the
front of the room.
It isn't because these things are
noticed and then not attended to,
but because they 60 by day after
day unnoticed.
Parents should take particular
pains with the child, especially those
first entering school.
