4-YEkR- OLD WISER Than A MAN
Needs to See or Hear but Once to Re.
member-Cannot Read but Knows
Most Difficult Words.

Detroit. Mich.-George Herbert Van
Vleet, 4 years old, has such an active
mind that he is known as 1.-The boy
with the mirror BRAIN" His memory
is remarkable. When other babies Of
his age were growing and cooling and
more often crying George was talking
distinctly.
When he was 16 months old he as
tonished physicians who had been at
tracted by stories of his unusual abili-
ty when such simple words as spon-
dylootherapy, polycotyledon. metap-
terygoid, lmnanthaceae rolled off his
tongue as easily as though they con-
tanned but one syllable.
There is not word in the English
language that having heard once, he
cannot repeat, with astonishing clear
ness of enunciation.
George has never been taught to
read.
All letters look alike to him when
they are coupled together, yet one can
take a map of the world, spread At
out in front Of him, arm him with
toothpick-all geniuses have their
little eccentricities, and his consists
of a Partially for toothpick to be
used as a pointer-and he will indi-
cate every country on the map and
name it without seconds hesitation.
He knows the capitals of many of
these and the chief cities as well.
When it comes to history there is
scarcely question of common knowl-
edge that he is unable to answer. He
can name all the Presidents of the
United States in order.
In the Van Vleet home is a phono-
graph, with probably eighty disc
records. Take one of these, mention
the piece on the diverse side, and he
will Immediately tell you the title of
the selection on the reverse, going
through the entire list without falter-
ing.
His familiarity with colors is no less
astonishing, it being impossible to puz-
zle him in defining even the most deli.
cate shades.
And he imparts this information
with no airs. He never volunteers to
display his powers. but upon request
provides demonstration that is as
tonishing.

EUening Head Dresses

Quite in the style Of ancient days,
nearly all the evening dresses are
completed by important looking head
dresses, with tall aigrettes and orna-
ments, and folds and twists of various
thin materials, or else of velvet; some
are almost like little toques or tur-
bans; very few people have their
coiffures unadorned. And it also
seems as if the straight fringe over
the forehead were to come in again;
at least to a moderate extent.
