Shot Made everything Green.

A soldier in a recent battle was shot
in the forehead. the bullet passing
through his brain and out at the back
of his head, but without even stunning
him. He remarked, Everything seems
green all round me-" When in the hos
pital tent he still saw everything green.
but otherwise made no complaint. This
case. says the editor Of Nature, appears
to favor the cerebral theory of color
vision of DIR. Edridge-Green the shock
to the brain having altered the dis
criminatory apparatus SO that inn
pulses caused by green rays had a pre-
ponderating influence.

screeched Ebenezer Flocken as he
brought his horny fist down on the
counter. you go back to your cook
pots and your carpet rags. II you're
a good gal mebbe III take you to see
moving pitchers tonight" he ended in
a wbeedling tone, for his ~stepdaughter
was not to be estranged from him II
he could help it. Hetty was too use
full to his comfort.
Hetty Denton looked at him with
wide, gray. unwavering eyes.
Il shall marry David Gray she
said slowly ms she turned away.
Ebenezer watched her slender. erect
figure as IL passed out of the door that
communicated with the adjoining
house.
When he was alone in thc~store he
looked around with lowering glance at
the shelves laden with groceries, at
the boxes and barrels that numbered
the door and at the collection of farm
ing implements hat cluttered the rear
spaces.
Marry David Gray nothingi' he
snarled angrily, humping his fist once
more.
And just as though the blow from
his fist had evoked an evil genie there
bobbed up from behind the molasses
barrel a large head covered with a
shock of naxen hair. beneath which
grinned the foolish face of Sissy Soper,
the village simpleton.
HAS she gone?7 whispered Sissy
hoarsely.

the sticky surface of the barrel and
licked It greedily. Il love '~lasses," he
murmured wistfully.

ing the abnormally large organs that
tapped under his yellow hair. when
Miss Hetty gifts married I'm going tc
live Along of her and Dave-they'rt
good to me-"
Ebenezer choked over the words thai
arose to his lips. He remembered just
in time that he was a deacon in the
| church and that Sissy Soper had a
most uncanny way of absorbing facts
and repeating them parrot wise al
most i%nopportune moments.
In the meantime Hetty returned to
the lonely house and resumed her prep
arations for dinner. Her stormy inter
view with her stepfather had not

and David Gray loved each other.

a large oak tree and appeared to
saunter carelessly down the road past
Ebenezer's perch.
"Helpr' shrilled the old man. s
Sissy turned with remarkable intui-
tion and ran directly at Ebenezer's
tree. "Who be there?" he called.
Look out for the bear" cautioned
Ebenezer, recognizing Sissy's voice.

Long after Sissy and the bear had
disappeared, Ebenezer Flocken sat in
the bending birch tree, staring into
space.

But he never really discovered the
truth concerning the incidents of that
night. when David Gray married Hetty
Denton and took her to the new house
on Arbutus hill.
And Sissy Soper enjoys unlimited ac-
cess to the molasses barrel and the
cracker box in Ebenezer's store, and
smiles foolishly when people tell him
that he ought to be very grateful to
Deacon Flocken for his kindness.

Tnree OF the leaders OF the woman's
club work IN Nebraska paid visit to the
Norfolk Hospital for the Insane one aft
ernoon during the recent session Of the
Nebraska Federation OF woman's Ciubs
at Norfolk. and one Of them has written
her impressions Of the institution and the
work that IL being done for the unfor-
tunate by the superintendent. DIT. Out
tory She writes.
The afternoon Of our visit was Ideally
beautiful. The impression made by the
group of large buildings in their setting
of green lawn and bright blooming flow
ers was very satisfying The approach
over the winding driveway, arched by
stately eims. gave ample opportunity 20
enjoy the beautiful views Of the sur
every direction.
AS we enter the institution we are
impressed with the atmosphere Of kind
neas and comradeship that prevails. The
entire institution was open TO our inspec-
ton. One notes with pleasure the intelii-
gent. systematic routine OF business that
controls the work Of this busy community,
for Il IL indeed a community whose needs
are different from our own. and OF which
we know very little. The sanitary condi-
lions are most excellent. everything being
spotlessiy clean and in order Some OF
the buildings are old and hack many mod
ern conveniences In the way Of ventiia-
ton and sanitation. Yet they are bright
with sunshine. and the pure air enters
through every window. In the long. open
porches the inmates can find plenty OF
exercise when the weather IL unsuitable
for outdoor walks The sitting rooms are
large, well lighted and sunny Each IL
comfortably furnished with touches. rock
ing chairs. tableA reading matter and
musical Instruments. In one room we
noticed a man intentiy studying his Bible
and making notes as he read.
1T was pleasant to note the affection
manifested by many OF the patients to
ward the kindly superintendent. and his
! sympathetic interest In each. As we en-
| tered the sick ward II was a pleasure "a
see their faces light with smile Of reccg-
milton as. they waited their turn for q
kindly word and a touch OF his hand
THE new building is a model in ever
