Peculiar Belief.

TWO centuries have passed since
the Scottish Judge Lord Monboddo
was born. In his "Origin and Prog.
ress OF Language" he argued that hu.
man beings should be studied like
other animals; but this doctrine seem
ed to the contemporaries of Dr.. John.
0 SO ridiculous that the wags based
many a jest upon 1t. His belief that
men got rid of their tails by sitting
upon them would now scarcely raise
q smile among anthropologists. Among
his more startling proposition was the
earnestly maintained one that the OF
rang-outang was a class of the hu.
man species, and that it's want OF
speech was merely accidental"

Mrs. George Law, who lived so long
in Paris, has acquired a truly Pari-
sian taste in salads. She is very fond
of novelties in. this line and concocts
many original ones herself.
One of her pet salads is made Of
equal parts of picked green figs,
picked peaches and picked pears,
all chopped into cubes and covered
with a rich French dressing. This
is served on crisp romaine leaves
with grated allspice over all.
For another, one Of her salads she
slices an alligator pear and fills in
side the ring left by the stone with
sections of grape fruit and sliced
Spanish peppers, twice as much
grape fruit as peppers. Over this she
turns French dressing made of four
tablespoons of oil to one of tarragon
vinegar and one-half teaspoon of salt.

BOYS LIKE TO OWN THINGS
May keep" and He VIII Treas-
ure Thorn.

The average boy believes firmly In
the principle of the private ownership
Of personal property. He would rather
be the sole possessor of broken
handled knife with no blades than a
pearl handled, four-bladed affair in
partnership, asserts Thomas w. Lloyd
in the Mothers Magazine.
In fact, the desire to own something
to possess property-is inherent in
all mankind. And mothers should en-
deavor to foster this DESIRE. It will
not only increase the boys happiness.
but will teach him the value of acqui-
sition. within proper limits. He
should have his own playthings, his
own tools, his own books, his own
clothes. and a place of his own in
which to keep them.
A boy who is permitted to do this
will take better care Of things than II
owned in partnership. and he will
learn eagerly to have place for his
things and to keep them in their
place. And this Is valuable lesson.
Do not make younger boy wear his
older brothers clothing which the
latter has outgrown, If it can be avoid
ed. OF course in some families,
where every cent counts, this cannot
be helped. Every boy, and we speak
from experience, hates to wear an
others clothes. He wants his own.
Give him his own bureau drawer
and at least portion Of a closet, and
teach him habits Of orderliness and
system in the care Of his possessions.
These habits are easily learned when
young, and their value to the man Of
business Is incalculable.
