ORIGIN OF COUNTRY FAIR
Its Establishment Can Be Clearly
Traced to an Ancient Religious
Custom.

The country fair owes Its origin to
an ancient religious custom. In early
days, when Englismen observed saints
days, a crowd Of worshipers and pill
grims would assemble within the pre-
cincts of the church or abbey during
the festival of popular saint. To
supply the wants of the throng, tents
were pitched, and stalls for provisions
set up in the churchyard. Peddlers
and traders found many customers
among the worshipers, and In course
of time these pious assemblies became
marts of trade, and were known as
STAIRS"
Many odd customs associated with
fairs illustrate the social life of other
days. The opening of fairs In many
towns was announced by holsting a
large glove in conspicuous place. In
the event of law forbiddlng the hold
ing Of fair without royal permission,
the king would send his glove to the
town as token of his consent.
In Liverpool, a hand was exhibited
in front of the town hall ten days be-
fore and after each fair day, to signify
that no person coming to or going
from the fair might be arrested FOR
debt within the towns precincts.
At Palgnton fair, Exeter, an i'm
mense plum pudding was drawn
through the town by four yoke of oxen
and afterward distributed for the
crowd. Its ingredients were: 400
pounds Of flour, 40 pounds of beef
suet, 40 pounds Of ralslns and 240
eggs. 1t was boiled in brewers cop
per for three days and nights.

Nature Study.

In the study of nature do not try to
teach too much in one lesson. Notice
first the characteristic features and
qualities Of whatever Is under discus
sion; let the child examine the object
II possible; remember that children
are more Interested In what things do
than In their form.
Let the child examine little plant,
seed and all. Lead him to observe
that 1t does something. It pushes Its
roots and Its stem up; 1t eats and
drinks, breathes, sleeps and wakes. 1t
makes things: Leaves and flowers,
seed and fruits. Incidentally, notice
the form and color that these activi-
ties give to each individual plant.
Nature study need not be dull or DIFF
ficult; 1t provides plenty Of life and ac-
ton. 1t is mostly our own interest
that Is dead, or our senses that need
qulckening.
Grasp few fundamental principles
and nature study in the home, In the
kindergarten and in the school, will be-
come the children's delight, the teach
er's friend, and occupation for the
nursery to help start the youngsters
In busy work, daily delight when
walking out.

VICTORY MATTER OF COURSE
American Advantage In Battle Obvious
to the Most Casual Observer
Of Events.


One of the great assets on the side
Of the United States In any war Is
the complete and unbounded conf
dence Of all the people-soldiers and
civlllans-that we are going to win.
No one for moment has any doubt
about that. Some of us feel that we
may have to pay heavy price, but
most of us will feel also that 1t is
going to be worth all that 1t costs.
1t is to be noted that this sense of
confidence that fills the hearts Of the
people is not the overconfldence by
which great battles are sometimes
lost, but rather the consciousness Of
being in the right and Of having the
mental and physical force to uphold
that right for our own sakes and for
the sake Of the world. This calm
confidence Is unquestlonably u great
American advantage.
The magnificent showing that has
been made and always will be made
by the American soldier boys thrills
the hearts Of all loyal citizens. 1t Is
inspiring and 1t warns the heart
but 1t was not unexpected.

NapoIeon's Horses Trained.

Extraordinary were the precautions
taken that Napoleon should never ap-
pear at disadvantage on horseback.
The emperor was not first-class
hOrseman, and his horses we're always
thoroughly broken In. Here is a de-
scriptlOn Of the methods employed:
"They were trained to remain per
fectly steady under tortures Of every
description to receive blows about the
head; drums were beat, pistols and
crackers fired In their ears, flags
waved before their eyes, clumsy pack
ages, and sometimes even sheep and
pigs, were thrown between their legs.
"NOne Of the animals were deemed
sufficiently trained till the emperor
could, without the least difficulty, pull
them up short at full gallop, which
was his favorite pace"

Hlatorv Of n Star.


The history Of star begins with
dust and ends with dust. II takes its
form out of chaotic nebulae, passes
through a period of life, grows cool,
then dark and dead, and ultimately
dashes Into another dark cloud of
star dust, and Is thus turned bnck into
nebula.
We on earth live our lives In such a
short moment that evolution among
the stars Is not at once apparent. It
would require great many centuries
to actually see blue sun become
white. then yellow, then finally red.
While II Is not possible to watch any
one star living Its life, yet by noting
the characteristics OF great many,
a complete and logical chain OF evil
dence may be found, which Includes
representative stars of every type In
the sky.

Ideal Friendship.

Inslncerlty may fasclnate-but 1t is
not lOvable. Only honesty and direct
ness Of dealing can win lasting at
tachment. Artificial folk are desper-
ately afraid Of the picturesquely I'M
conventional actions that they think
will make them ridiculous. They are
30 stiff and starched In their unman-
nerliness that they are hopelessly un-
interesting. Sticklers for etiquette
and for the observances of all the mi
nor canons Of good form, they find so
many petty, silly rules to follow that
they have no time to give rein to large
and generous impulses. A personality
that makes Itself count ardently and
lastingly in other lives and for the
worlds well being Is too high for spite,
too noble for mean, small ways, too
genuine for intrigue and lnnuend0 and
too faithful to sacrifice friend.

SUPREME IN INSECT MIMICRY
Really Wonderful Act Of Caterpillar
Shows Natures Protection
Thrown Around innocents.

/ witnessed a quaint little scene
on a blackthorn bush in Epplng forest
day or two ago, writes IL. r." in
Manchester (Bng.) Guardian. 1t Is
well known that many species of cat
erpillars so closely resemble the
brown, barked stems, while others, be-
ing green, fix themselves to the new
green stems Of the current years
growth.
Among the blackthorn twlgs I OBJ
served one young member Of the dark
er species sticking out, rigid and mo-
tiOnless, ut the orthodox angle of 40
degrees, from apparently young
green shoot. On closer examination
discovered that the young green shoot
was itself caterpillar sticking out Of
an angle of 40 degrees.
What had happened was obvious.
The disguise Of the green caterpillar
was so perfect that even another cater
pillar-itself a master In the art OF
twig lmitation-had palpably been
completely deceived and mistaken the
green caterpillar for a twlg. Surely
this is q triumph Of insect mlmlcry.

UNIVERSAL DAY OF BAD LUCK
In All Ages Friday Has Been consld-
cred a Period Of General
III Omen.

The French call Friday "Vendredl"
Venus day.
Scandinavlans regard Friday as the
luckiest day Of the week.
Our ancestors believed that eggs
laid on Friday would cure collie.
'Frlday face" still fingers as term
of reproach for a sour-visaged person.
Friday is the United States lucky
day. Columbus discovered land on
that day; the Pilgrims landed on a
Friday, and Washington was born on
a Friday.
The 'unluckiness" of Friday owes
its origin, of course. to our Lord
Jesus Christ's death on Good Friday.
Friday marriages are "for losses"
and superstltlous couples who are get
ting married avoid this day.
Shipping returns of all countries
show a much lower sailing rate on
Friday than on any other day Of the
week.
The Talmud, the book containing
the civil laws of the ancient Jews,
says that Adam was created on Fri
day, sinned on Friday, and was
thrust out of Eden on Friday.
