Science Says:
BE NATURAL.

Ii
child that is naturally efthanded to it's right hand
ihe reason children prefer the of the left hand
Is because their brains constructed that way There
are ett-hand brains and rght-han brains The center
that controls the action may be either side of the brain
and it will dictate which side of the body will be the most
active"
We know that the first thing the average parent does
upon discovery that child is left handed is to try to
change the natural order Why Because the eft-handed
minority seem awkward to the right handed majority
They violate monkey ideas of conventionay though
we know efthanded people who excel in the use of their
hands.
The majority of men good deal like MONKEYS im
tatlng each other in all things and showing no spark of
originality They pervert natural laws act or look
like other people This is strange because we all know
that the great men of the world who have defed
conventions have dared to stand apart the herd have
been Wiling rs follow natures rules and have merely
smiled at the nlaortyS ''YOu different from
u.s. and you fool This taunt is as old as the
world 1t is the price pay for being themselves The
compensation derived from independent living however,
more than offsets the little sneers
If you efthanded be left handed for it is nature
will In all things be what you are-don try to be some
i've and you have the right to your experiences Use
your intelligence not written rule, your life guide Thus
you will possess original Free satisfying life action Don
be monkey, and do not try to make monkeys of your
children The lesson the great scientist gives from his
observation concerning the Of efthanded action
that there natural of human tendencies We
will do we'll IT try to curb only evil tendencies and
develop the good ones, even if they eft-handed

Senator SutherIaBd's Speech to Dele

fsnecial 10 M HeraId-Republican.)

Especial to The Herald-ReDublican)
Washington, April Ex-senator Suth-
erland made a speech yesterday at a
luncheon given by Director John Bar
rett OF the bureau OF American repub-
lies, which brought joy to the souls of
the guests of honor. The luncheon was
given at the New willard in honor of
the special delegates sent by the presi-
dent of Cuba to represent that govern
ment at the dedication of the new home
here of the Bureau of American Repub
lies. Senator Sutherland is chairman of
the Senate committee on Cuban rela-
tiOns. and when he rose to speak he
announced emphaticaily that he was OPP
posed to any sugge stion of Cuban an
nexation. He said he believed Cuba
would develop into a strong independ
ent nation and he wishes to see her
have the opportunity.
This sentiment was extremely pleas
ing to the Cuban delegates, especially
since II came from the chairman of the
senate committee entrusted with the
relations between the two governments,
and when Representative Foster of
Vermont and other members of Con-
gress endorsed these views the Cubans
felt that their country was in no imme-
date danger of being gobbied up.

.CANNIBALISM IN THE
SOUTH SEA ISLANDS
General Relapse in Barbarism Since
Eating the Missionaries
in February.

Seattle, Wash. April 29.-The barken-
tine Mary E. Winkelman, which has
just arrived at Mukilteo, Wash, from
the Friendly and Tonga islands, In the
South sea, brings details of the murder
and eating by cannibals on Savage ISL
and, near the TOngas, Of Rev. Horatio
Hopkins and his assistant, Rev. Hector
Laurie Mcpherson, missionaries of the
Presbyterian mission, on February 3,
as already cabled. While the barken-
tine lay at Tangatabu, in the Tonga
islands, a canoe load of mission natives
from Savage island arrived at Eua,
bringing news of the butchery.
The natives said that Hopkins and
Mcpherson were teaching in the mis-
sion building, which stands on the
beach in the little harbor of Savage
island, when 20 of the unconverted saw
ages, bowling war cries and brandish-
ing clubs and spears, descended upon
their quarters and took every one pris-
oners. The missionaries had about
twenty converts undergoing training at
the time, and only nine converts es-
capped. Both missionaries were bound
with thongs and were left lying on The
beach in the tropical sun for several
hours while the savages took the native
captives inland,
The cannibals, on returning to the
beach, carried the missionaries on a lit
ter to the crater of the extinct volcano
Vaniue, in the center of the island.
There, for two days and nights, they
held a cOrrobOTee, and at times could be
seen plainly dancing and reveling by
the fugitive mission natives as they
stole along the shore.
While most of the cannibals were
sleeping an opportunity came to the
captive natives to escape. Their going
was fastened by the sight of two of the
cannibal chiefs donning the mission
aries clothes. The clergymen had al
ready been eaten.
The Winkelman brings news of a gen
eral revival of the old-time religious
customs in the Tonga, Society. Solomon
and Cook groups. The natives are hold
ing dances and feasting on human flesh.
