The subject of the health condi'
tions OF school children has been
discussed by the instructors and
doctors as one which bears as much
upon the development of the stu
dent as a scholar as does the teach
ing OF that stude.: itself.
That many students are nor nor

feet which can be remedied. After
being relieved OF their defects. the
students have in all cases improved
considerably in their school work
This tends 10 prove the assertion
that were more attention devoted

interest as he saw a common hand

propelling handles across her shape

her was a rare picture of earnest,

Walter stopped at a hotel that
night. He could not get the face
and name Of the girl he had seeno5ut
of his mind. The next day he made
some further inquiries about thed9h-
yer family. He found that theyiwere
too poor to afford a horse and WHgbn.
He pitied the girl, who night AFTER
fight did the service Of a beas1J Of
burden, dragging the Facketty hand
cart over the uneven country reads.
He made a whimsical resolve. Two
mornings later, seated in a stout,
light wagon with a sturdy horsegat-
tached, he drove into the yard Of the
little 20-acre farm where Meta Oil
yer lived.
She was among the vines, wearing
a neat, cover-an apron. Her radiant
eyes somewhat abashed him as he
asked for her father. He found the
latter and his wife seated eomfOrta-
bly, on the porch of the little cottage,
convalescing from an attack Of chiIls
and fever.

was eating with an appetite now,

Another discovery was the fact
that his mind acquired a new VigOr
in healthful groove. Where before
Z business and its driving cares had
been all absorbing, he commenced to
8 take rare interest in his surround
ings and in humanity in general.

3 strength of the owner of some little
farm where he stopped for drink of
water or meal. The singing brooks,
the happy birds, the blooming flow

One evening he was belated by a
