"EnuH's EnuH.n

A few days ago a north size pnysi-
clan received telephone call at his
downtown office asking him to hurry
home as speedily as possible. On ar
rival he was told that his small boy,
age three. had found a box of bella
donna pellets and had eaten some OF
them, the wife didn't know how many.
The pupils of the Youngsters eyes
were dilated, which was proof that he
had eaten some of the poison.
The father decided on an emetic and
mixed a generous dose of mustard in
some warm water The youngster
gulped It down. A minute or so later
the father said, Here, Ernest; here's
another dose" The boy rebelled. ''ff
you don't take it I'll lick you. You hear
meT Eyes, papa; II hear you.
Please give me the lickb'." -Irdianap-

leigh Hunt.
iMSSt

This famous Englishman has two
distinct claims to fame. Not only was
he brilliant poet. essayist and critic.
but much that we know of Keats.
Shelley. Lamb, Byron, Moore, Cole
ridge, Dickens and Carlyle has been
derived from the knowledge Of these
celebrities which Hunt gave to the
world. Possessing happy spirit and
genuine scholarship. Leigh Hunts
writings sparkle with wit and clever
ness, while his translations are among
the choicest of their kind. His pecu-
mary difficulties undoubtedly prevent
ed Hunt giving us his best at times.
but after he was granted pension
amounting in all to G 900 per annum
the improved comfort and augmented
leisure enabled him TO make his mark
on English literature with essays OF
remarkable power.-Pearson's Weekly.
