The Wonderchild

sensational story about Sainville's
wonderchild, and Bandut was pursuad-
ed by his fatherinlaw to kill rated
calf i'm honor of the event.
oscar grew up, and when he hao
learned to walk and speak few woros
an old woman, who was the oracle VI
the village, warned his parents to Do
sure to give the child plenty OF time
to develop his mental faculties WIN
ont any outside interference. This ADJ
vice was duly followed and Oscar was
nearly seven before he was sent 10
school
At school his wonderful intelligence
manifested itself principals in an ao-
solute refusal to learn anything.
Nonsense" exclaimed Bandut when
the teacher at last considered it his
duty to inform the parents that their
child was an fmbecile. "a child VINO
all alone climbs down Is steps when
he is only three months old, will surely
soon make up for lost time, II he is
q. little slow in getting his first start
with books.
In time another child was born and 1t
early proved itself even more wonder
full than little Oscar got at the age OF
only two. months the parents found
their infant sitting at the bottom OF
the stone steps unframed and cooling
with delight as she played with Mira
They picked her up, put her PACK
into her cradle and went back to their
work, but when they reached the door
they heard a pleased growl oehlhu
them and when they turned around theS
saw the big dog carefully carrying the
baby down the stairs and placing II
on the mat.
did you ever see the like OF that
burst out Bandut as his wife tried IN
vain to conceal her disappointment
'sDo YOU know" she said at last,
Il am rather pleased TO have found this
out. One never knows what may hap
pen to children, who learn TO walk SO
long ahead of time There is nothing
like a normal child after all"

BY Albert Delvane.

w THEN little Oscar first saw the
w light of day In farmer Ban
Outs cottage and was duly
held up to an admiring audience, his
mother decided with the help Of those
who were present that the child was
destined to become a great man.
Has not Bondessen's oldest boy
become a policeman in Paris? Well.
there you are.
Oscar was just three months old,
when his parents one morning, while
working in the yard heard their old
dog Mira barking loudly. Terror
stricken at the thought that the baby
might have fallen out of its cradle up
stairs. Nine Bandut rushed toward
the house. and as soon as she had en-
tered the door. gave scream which
was quickly followed by an exclama-
ton Of the utmost surprise.
Good Lordi He has crawled down
the stairs all alone"
The father came rushing up and
could not believe his own eyes, so IN
usual was the sight he saw.
On the mat at the foot of the stairs
leading to the upper floor Oscar was
sitting perfectly content and happy.
Only his head and arms were pro-
truding from swaddling clothes but
with all the strength Of his little chubby
hands he was pulling Mira's hair, and
the dog seemed to enjoy the game as
much as the baby. Surely there had
ben no accident, for If the baby had
fallen from its cradle and down the
Is stone steps they would have found
him shapeless mass. AS he did not
cry and was beaming all over his round
face there was no doubt that with the
strength of q premature hero he must
have craWled the whole distance alone.
A neighbor's wife who happened to
pass was fortunately in time to hear
the news and as everybody who heard
the story added a few details in the
telling it is small wonder that Father
Boudoise in the evening swore that ne
heard Bandut's baby sing the Marsel-
laise. The next day the local paper had

DOES IT REALLY PAVE

From Santa Fe New Mexican.
One of the advantages of living in
'wide-open@ town was demonstrated on
last Friday evening at Ell Paso, Texas.
when a well known and popular citi-
zen was shot to death and robbed IN
the principal residence district 1t was
a bright moonlight night, the two
thugs who committed the deed wore no
disguise, and yet, they escaped, to kill
and rob some other citizen at the first
opportunity. Says an FL Paso paper:
Both the police and detective depart
ments are efficient and faithful, but
they have their limitations and both
are taxed beyond their capacity to han
die the conditions as they now exist"
FL Paso spends altogether for its police
department alone as much as Santa F'e
spends altogether for its city govern
ment IN Denver, also VIGOROUSLY wide
open, police last year made $4,000 ar
rests. most of them IN the sOcaned
reservation" the -wide-open" part of
the town. The tax payers bear the bur
den of those arrests, the cost Of hear
ings and trials and the maintenance of
tails, all because a certain percent Of
depraved human beings maintain that
the wide-open policy is necessary for
their happiness and prosperity. Does
it pay?

In other words. the Dominion OF Can

mentary government, in which the most
recently elected legislative represen-

Laurier Has Great Power.
Premier Laurier has infinitely great
er power in government than has pres
ident Taft, as is instanced in the mat
ter of the reciprocity agreement, but
he is subject to a great many possible
restraints For instance. if president
Taft had occupied the same position as
that of the Canadian premier he would
long ago have been in retirement He
would have been forced to resign the
first time congress failed to approve
a measure officially submitted TO 1t by
him. Congress has voted down Mr. Taft
repeatedly, and If this government were
like that Of Canada he would now be
expresident Taft
Therefore, while the prime minister
of Canada has more power than the
! American president, he holds it solely
at the pleasure OF parliament That
means simply that the Canadian palia-
ment has infinitely greater power than
I the American congress, even aside from
