CATS AS THEY FALL.

They Can Land on Their Feet No Mat
tor How They Drop.
1t is a common saying that if cat
is dropped in any way whatever it will
always alight on it's feet. Since man
cannot lift himself by his boot straps
or a boat cannot propel itself through
the water except by pressing against
the water in some way one may we'll
wonder whether this is not one of the
common sayings which are fallacious.
The general principles involved are OF
such interest that the question was
taken up few years ago for consider
alton at a session of French scien-
tific society.
1t is fact that it is Dramatically
possible for cat to turn over, no mat
ter how dropped, and experiments
have shown that they actually do it.
If a balloonist or air man should fall
from a great height and should find
that he were descending so as to strike
OH his head he could turn himself over
so as to strike upon his feet II he
knew the proper means of accomplish
ing it. But the distance he would have
to fall in order to have time to turn
over would be SO great that he could
have only an academic interest in strik-
ing on his feet rather than on his head
for the final result to him would be
the same in either case.-Popular Me,

HOW TO AMUSE CHILDREN.
Many Tasks Mothers Can Give Litti,
Ones to Do.

Many Tasks Mothers Can Give Little
Ones to Do.
There is a great deal in the way of
keeping peace in the family generally,
and in the nursery particularly. in let
ting children help.
A child is naturally busy. Watch the
little one just beginning to discover
that he has fingers and toes that wig
gle and see how busy he keeps them.
Watch the creeping little one that
makes his unnoticed way to cherish
ed and neat workbasket and see how
spools, pincushions and all the useful
| articles fly as he throws them as far
as his chubby arms cannot. as many
think. from purely mischlevous spir
it. but simply because he wants to be
busy.
Supply a child with something. any
| thing it can do and it will be happy.
| Set it down with an injunction to "sit
| still and behave" and watch the wrig-
| Cling little figure and hopeless coun-
tenance. There can be nothing more
barbarous than to insist upon absolute
| quiet from baby.
| And there are SO many small things
mother can give her little ones to
| do. They can lift a chair and place it
on the other side of the room; they
can carry a small rug out on the
! porch. make believe to shake it and.
| If provided with tiny broom. make
still more earnest belief to sweep it.
How happy and self satisfied is the
small girl that is helping MOTHER
Unless one has thought out the mat
ter it Is more than amazing how very
! quick a little child is to learn. Here,
| truly, we may almost believe in the
descent from Simian ancestry-that is.
If we have ever watched a monkey
initiate the actions of people. 1 once
was the proud mistress of darling
little Jocko, who, when detected in
one of his thousands of impish tricks.
would place one tiny paw upon his
head and another on his little tummy
| and moan in approved style. If asked
alphabetically. "Poor Jocko! Sick?''
he would look as if at the edge of the
| grave. If forgiven and told so in
| words and by tone of voice the little
rascal would scamper in high glee all
! about. showing plainly that there was
| nothing on earth the matter
Now, really a baby is very much
like monkey. Keep it busy and keep
it out of mischief Let it find things
to do itself. and it will be sure to
find something that will create havoc
| Give ball or cord. True. there will
be snarls, and the cord may be lost
for all good forever and a day; but
oh, the pleasure and delight it has
| given that baby! Keep the little ones
busy if they are to be happy. and do
| not. I beg, try to make them "sit STILL
| 1t Is impossible.

Ieoend or the Sunken Bells.

leQen0 OF the SunNon o0iIS.
Somewhere beneath the soil of Sus-
sex, England. there lies peal Of
bells, while in the church near by a
solitary bell calls to prayer In the
middle ages, it is said, certain val
liant knight wished to present to the
church peal of bells that should be
of use and perpetuate his memory as
we'll, but the vessel that brought them
careened on approaching the harbor.
and the bells fell out and sank into the
mud Thereupon the donor declared:
"Never shall the church have chime
until that peal 1 give it be dragged
from the sea by a team Of four milk
white oxen"
The oxen seem to have been difficult
to obtain. At any rate, the fact re
mains that to this day the edifice to
which the pious knight made his bene-
faction has never possessed more than
a single bell.

In Case Plans Are Adopted,
Wayne County Will Be the
First in State to Have
Practical Instruction.

Agriculture in it's most practical
forms will be included in the course
of study of the county schools this
year by County Superintendent Charles
O. Williams, who believes this to be
one of the most important steps that
could possibly be taken for the better
ment of the county school curriculum.
Although the course of study has not
been completely mapped out. ii is
said that ii will be practical and car
ried along scientific lines.
The Wayne county schools have had
text book matter in the sixth, seventh
and eighth grades relating to the soil,
seeds, crops of all kinds, livestock and
the farm home.
| The country youth pores over a
book which covers three or four hun
dred points, and which does not &C
complish a great deal" said the super
intendent
Under the new system which is tc
be introduced this fall by Superintend
ent Williams, the students of the
eighth grade will spend the first foul
months in studying chickens. Th'
study will commence with the stud,
of eggs. following with the hatchin,
of chickens, the feeding, and finall,
end with the scoring or judging. TIL
second four months will be spent il
studying livestock. When this worl
