IDEAS CURIOUS AND POETIC
Remarkable Beliefs That Have Been
Firmly lngraned Into the Chill
dren of Siam.

MIR. Ernest Young, who went to Siam
to organize the educational system,
related at London recently some Gu
rious beliefs held by the children there.
He explained that he had experienced
considerable difficulty in teaching them
the rudimentS of science, They be-
lieved that the earth was fiat because
the priest had told them SO. 1t was
also the impression of these children
that a big crab went down into the
sea and made the tide flow, and when
the crab came up for fresh air the
tide ebbed. When the gods became
angry rolling thunder was heard, and
when the angels got sporty and struck
fire out of bricks, summer lightning
flashes were seen. When many angels
got into the bath at the same time
water ran over the side and it rained.
Directly Mr.. Young entered school
the children Frustrated themselves be-
fore him, and the only way they could
be induced to abandon this practice
was to tell them that English children
did not do that. They would do any
thing English children were said to
do. They were awful liars, but when
told that the English boy was truthful
they gave up the habit.

Many Eiake Llistake OF Thinking HAP
piness Comes Only From Material
or Outward Conditions.

Why should you care TO be pestered
with a large bank account or distressed
by q house full of servants? asks the
albuquerque Evening Herald, which
adds: Adam and Eve lad neither of
these and they called their place OF
abode Paradise. Few people have
learned the secret Of living well. Too
many think it depends almost wholly
on the condition of the pocketbook.
This is most certainly a mistake. Hap
piness is not born of material or out
ward conditions. It is largely the re-
suit Of purely mental process.
Amid the duller threads of duty it
is well to weave one bright strand
of desires-it is well to mix a little
sunshine with your daily food. You
can soften the sound OF cab and car
i'll the stony street by calling to mem
DRY birds song heard in the fields
on summer afternoon in childhood.
1t is sweeter to your soul-if you have
one-than is the railroad that you own
yourself.
Take a day OFF and go out to some
cemetery where you" may reflect on
the brevity of life and the INSULT
cheney Of things pertaining to the peck
etbook. It is better that you go be-
fore it comes Your turn to ride out
there in the big plumcd car that never
hauls it's load back again. Don't wait
until you own your private automobile,
but go While you are able to walk and
to think. From the dead you may
learn much of life. Scan all the vir-
tues inscribed upon all the headstones
by loving hands-and among them all
you will not find recorded the posses
sion Of a million dollars or locked
tail horse Or q brownstone palace or
12-cylinder car or a handsome" ward
robe.
No! The headstones usually tell
you only of those things worth while.
