SchooI and After.

An Ohio editor, writing on the un-
certainties of life that lies before the
school youth, says that it is well to
call attention to the fact that one can't
tell from school report where child
will stand in life's long list. In school
the child may be at the foot of the
class as we used to say when the class
stood up, and still beat all the others
TO a fraZzle when it comes to getting
out into the world and getting on in it.
Still, that doesn't argue anything
against study and learning, for the
youth that idles away his time and is
a dullard perhaps in class room ard
makes good after leaving school might
do ever so much better had he applied
himself to study during the study
hours Vindicator.

October Mists.

These autumn mists are the mists Of
June grown older. This mellow at
mosphere, these days of old-gold
studies of tree and shore, Of soft. yell
low, shimmering mists, of half-lights
among the woods, where the leaves
drop thickest, and Of occasional clear
gray skies, are the rareripes of the
whole year. They stay will US until
the Indian summer has come and gone,
and with the first furry Of
snow they come back, the airy sprites
of the clouds, to whiten all the fields,
where in the blossoming summer time
they had many curvet and romp with
the winds. and many caress from
the sun. Sometimes they slip the
leash of winter, and in a single night
touch the trees, the waySfde bushes,
the rocks and fences. not forgetting
even the ragged pfne-stumps in the
pasture, with d marvellous fretwork of
crystal splendor, that flashes in the
morning sunshine and every crest and
pinnacle.-Herbert Milton Sylvester.

Thanked for Crankino.

Some time ago I went with friend
to see an acquaintance at a hospital,
and as we were leaving my friend
stopped in the corridor to exchange a
few words with a doctor. 1 walked
outside, where long line of cars was
parked about the building, intending to
crank my friends Ford. I had some
trouble starting it, and while I was
cranking some one climbed into the
car, but, thinking it was my compan-
ion, I did not even look up. Imagine
my surprise when the motor began to
whir and the car backed off smoothly
I looked up into the smiling face of a
perfect stranger.
''Thank you," he said, bowling.
I had cranked the wrong car.-New
York Times.

about him.
Hillary looked at him curiously, but
said no more. He began to push his

Baby,s Long Nails Are Weapons.

The people of Greece abide strongly
by the old traditions and customs of
their forefathers and in living up to
these customs many of the modern
ideas of sanitation and hygiene are
delayed in their progress. The vital
point in the baby's life is the matter
of protecting him from the spirits of
evil which are supposed to hover over
his cradle and follow him through the
day. The poor baby has to endure
many strange ceremonies before his
parents feel at all assured Of his fu-
ture. The finger nail myth is much
respected. The belief is that if a ba-
by's nails are never cut and are per-
mitted to grow long and ragged he will,
when he waves his arms about, scratch
the face of the demon of theft,
and the demon, disliking it, will fly
away and so not possess himself Of
the infants soul.

caused by Acid-Stomach.
There are other stomach disorders which
also are sure signs of Acid-Stomaeh-belch-
ing, heartburn. bloat after eating. food re-
peating. sour, gassy stomach There are
many ailments which, while they do not
cause much distress in the stomach ITSELF
are, nevertheless, traceable to an acid
stomach. Among these nervousness.
biliousness, cirrhosis Of the liver, rheuma-
tism, Impoverished blood, weakness. insom-
mia, melancholia and a long train Of phys
ical and mental nniseries that keep the
victims in miserable health year after year.
The right thing to do Is to attack these
ailments at their source-get rid of the acid
stomach. A wonderful modern remedy called
EATONIC now makes it easy to do this.
One of hundreds Of thousands Of grateful
users of EATONIC writes: II have been
troubled with intestinal indigestion for about
nine years and have spent quite sum for
medicine, but without relief. After using
EATONIC for few days the gas and pains
in my bowels disappeared. EATONIC is just

MONKEYS as coconut Pickers.

The Malays and Bataks of Suma-
ira have solved their labor problem in
a unique way. An important part of
their food is the coconut, and this also
forms an important part of their COM
merce. They have trained monkeys to
pick the nuts.
The monkeys are not paid salary,
but are virtually slaves, and Carl D.
La Rue of Kisaran, Asahan, Sumatra
writes to Science saying that trained
coconut picking monkeys sell at from
$S to $40, according to their skill. He
adds, however, that they are very saw
age and will inf1ict a nasty bite whens
ever they get a chance.

body had sawed part way through the
logs of the BOOM"
Then for the first time the words of
Madeleine Rosny came back to Hilary:
'Look to your boom! Look to your

shame. 1t seemed impossible to assO-

Mother Earth's Real Ace.

Old Mother Earth, who has closely
guarded her age for her entire life,
is 4OO,OOO,OOO years old, according to
a paper read before a scientific soci-
ety recently. In more scientific phrase
ology, the approximate age of the
earth, it has been discovered, may be
determined by dividing the amount
of salt in the sea by the amount
brought down each year by the rivers
that empty into it. Sir John Murray,
Professor Jolly and NJ. Du Bois, all
famous geologists, are responsible for
the new method of computing the age
of the terrestrial sphere.

found themselves under the fire of oil

The news reached Simeon Duval as
he was reaching up for bottle in his
closet. and he came putting out and
waddled toward Hilary, his pale-blue
eyes fixed on him In malevolent
scrutiny.
"Eh, Meestair Askew, you have

out the bottle under Hilary's nose.
The action was at once challenge
