Writer Says Most People Merely Alb

The trouble with most young people
is the trouble with most old people ;
they do not think, says Henry T. Ba-
ker. They are satisfied to have
thoughts turned out for them In a
standardized factory-fivver ideas, as
1t were.
Nothing is more amusing than the
superstition that the human animal
thinks. Even in a college group, which
is composed of some selected and SUI
perior minds, only about 20 per cent
do any real cogitating. The others
merely absorb; and under our pulchri-
tudinous system of grades. from A to
f. this is all that they have to do.
am sometimes awed TO observe how
accurately my own imperfect thoughts
are returned to me on the pages of a
student paper at examination time.
These young minds have learned,
either from me or from other instruc-
tors, the shortest way with dissenters.
But most Of them would not think
even if they were awarded for it. The
capacity for independent thought and
the eagerness for truth are possessed
by the 20 per cent merely, and by less
than that among the general popula-

but the story of the first application
Of the material to this purpose is not
generally known.
Dealing with the ancient light at
Leasowe, between the Mersey and the

the search for solid base, and the
wreck of cotton ship offered an in

Kissing Termed Crime
in Puritan NelD England

Kissing is considered an unhealthful
practice by some people. A few years
ago the physicians of Milwaukee pre-
pared bill for the absolute suppress
sion of kissing, on the ground that the
practice was hygienically dangerous.
The bill did not become law, or 1t
would have made Milwaukee more ia
nous, but somewhat similar laws ex-
listed in Puritan New England.
In 1866 Capt. Kemble of Boston was
"set for two hours in the public stocks
for his lewd and unseemly behaviour"
which consisted in kissing his wife
publiquely on the Sabbath day, upon
the doorstep of his house, when he had
just returned from an absence of
three years. Twelve years later
Jonathan and Susannah Smith were
each fined shillings and costs for
smiling on the Lords day" The smile.
II would appear, was only less heinouS
than the kiss itself.-Detroit News.

Perspiration.

In hot weather the human body
makes an extraordinary effort to adant
itself to conditions and meet the strain
placed upon it. Violent overheating
or great physical effort for a few
hours causes the body to throw Off
some four liters of fluid. In other
words. the perspiration secreted in y
brief while is greater than the entire
blood supply to the body.

An Anlnzi,lg Fact

ITO many people it may seem in
credible that habit so common
as coffee-drinking can be harmful. Yet
if your doctor were to enumerate the
common causes of indigestion, head
ache, and rundown condition, he
would be likely to mention coffee.
If you are troubled with insomnia,
nervousness, or are inclined to be
high-strung, try Postum in place of
coffee for thirty days, and note the diff
ference in the way you feel, and how
much better you sleep.
Postum is a pure cereal beverage,
absolutely free from caffeine, or any
harmful drug.
