MINDS OF DIFFERENT SIZES

Some No Bigger Than Chigger’s Instep —Then There’s Master Mind Encountered in Moving Pictures. Minds are small but powerful little devices which, since their discovery. have been confined to cells —brain cells. In view of this fact It Is difficult to understand how,the expression “an open mind” sprang into being. Minds are useless contrivances, for the greater part, and are never in perfect working order, but most people who are never satisfied to let well enough alone are constantly trying to Improve upon theirs. Strange to say, the fellow who Is working the hardest to improve’ his mind generally has one that needs less working on than 99 per cent of the ones he sees about him. Minds are of various dimensions, ranging in size from those no bigger than a chigger’s Instep on up to the master mind, which Is encountered only In story fiction and the moving pictures. Through a wise provision of Nature, who makes the distribution, a guaranty of satisfaction goes with each mind, leaving no man to hanker after the other feller’s, but being contented to scrub along with the one he has. Mind is the opposite of matter, but that doesn’t matter to the fellow who has something the matter with his mind, as he doesn’t mind such a matter. Minds are sometimes very useful for thinking purposes and should be encouraged in this respect. —Indianapolis Star.

ANIMALS HAVE NO INSTINCT

Acquire Their Knowledge of What Is Good to Eat and What la Harmful by Experience. “Animals seem to acquire their • knowledge of poisonous plants from experience, and not by any innate instinct ; our domestic animals, when transported to other countries, at first eat poisonous plants, which they learn afterwards to avoid. Snell observed that strange sheep frequently fell victims to the poisonous hellebore that grows abundantly in the valley of the Ahn, but that it is carefully avoided by the sheep of the neighborhood, writes Raymond Crawford in the London Lancet. “Lambs and calves, grazing in the same field as their mothers, are far more prone than they to eat poisonous plants. Morgan concluded from observations of feeding young birds with various caterpillars, beetles and worms, that, In the absence of parental guidance, young birds have to learn by experience what Is good to eat and what is not, and that they have no instinctive aversions. At first they peck at everything, but once they have found that a particular thing is distasteful or harmful, in future they entirely avoid it."

Had Plan of Their Own.

One day soon after Pope’s defeat at the second Bull Run and Chantilly a private soldier belonging to an Ohio regiment sought an interview with his captain, and announced that he had a plan for a military campaign which must certainly result in crushing out the Secession. The officer very naturally inquired for particulars, but the soldier refused to reveal them, and asked for a chance to lay his plans before Pope himself. After some delay he was given a pass to headquarters. He did not get Td see Pope, but after the chief of staff had coaxed and promised, and threatened for a quarter of an hour, the Buckeye stood up and replied : "Well, sir, my plan is for John Pope and Bob Lee to swap commands, and if we don’t lick the South inside of 00 days you may shoot me for a patent hay-fork swindler I” When he returned to camp he was naturally asked what success he met with, and he ruefully replied: “Wall, they had a plan of their own." “What was it?" “Why, they took me out and booted me for a mile and a half.”

VARIETY IN HIS WRITINGS

Author of Many Popular Dime Novela Later Repented and Produced Several Serious Perhaps there was something in the atmosphere of Maine that set the literary tide toward -hlood-and-thunder. At any rate, one of the most popular authors of dime novels was J. H. Ingraham, who was born In Portland and died in 1866 in the South. His was a varied career' He abandoned mercantile pursuits and became a teacher in Washington college, near Natchez, Miss., and in 1836 produced a volume of his Impressions of the Southwest. Then he turned his attention to dime novel writing and brought out “The Dancing Star, or the Smuggler of the Chesapeake," published in Boston. This was followed by three dime novels published In New York In 1852-3. “Captain Kyd, or the Wizard of ilie Sea,” “Josephine, or the Maid of the Gulf,” and “Dancing Feather, or the Pirate 'Schooner,” three frankly piratical, •’ though not pirated stories. “Lady Imogene, a Tale of Long Island Sound,” Is not a pirate story, but is the equal of the others in literary merit. In later life he repented, and while his dime novels are not to be found on the shelves of public libraries, possibly among the dust-covered volumes in the regions where the uncalled-for books are placed may be found his serious works, “A Prince of the House of David,” “The Pillar of Fire” and “The Throne of David,” produced after he had been ordained as an Episcopal minister and rector of St. Thomas Hall, an academy for boys at Holly Springs, Miss.

DEATH OF CHEVALIER BAYARD

Gallant French Knight Met End. Heroically While Leading Fight Against Traitor's Army. It was on April 30, 1524, that the Chevalier Bayard was killed in battle. His end was characteristic, Engaged in a campaign in northern Italy, where the imperial army under the traitor, De Bourbon, was pressing hard upon the retreating French troops, Bayard was asked to take the command and save the army. “It is too late,” he said, “but my soul is God’s and my life is my country’s.” Then putting himself at the head of a body of men at arms, he held the enemy at bay until struck down by a ball. He was thrown from his horse, but refused to retire, saying that he had never shown his back to the enemy. He was placed against a tree, facing the advancing host. In the want of a cross he kissed his sword, and because of the absence of a priest he confessed to his inaitre d’hotel. When De Bourbon came up and expressed regret at seeing him In such condition, he said: “Weep for yourself, sir. For me, I have nothing to complain of; I die In the course of my duty to my country. You triumph in betraying yours; but your successes are horrible and the end will be sad.” Having uttered these words the gallant knight died and was burled by his enemy on the field with military honors. .

Garibaldis for Freedom.

Where his study window looks out on the yellow waters of the Tiber, winding through the Rome for which he fought so long and bravely, I listened, one afternoon In late December, to that fiery old warrior, Gen. Ricciotti Garibaldi, while he spoke of the war and of Italy’s part In it, Lewis R. Freeman Writes In World’s Work. “All of my boys are fighting,” he had said, “and my daughters and my wife are nursing. Two of the boys are gone—killed in France—but the other five are with the Italian army. They are all good fighters, I think; but one of them—Pepplno, the eldest—is also an able soldier. Or at least he ought to be, for he has been trained In the *Garibaldl’ school. There hasn’t been a war (save that between Russia and Japan) or revolution In any part of the world in the last twenty years In which he hasn’t drawn a sword, carried a rifle or swung a machete."

Babies’ Cries Set to Music.

The crying of babies Is not regarded gs musical, but nevertheless It Is. Rev. Noel Bonava Hunt, a senior curate of St. Matthew’s church, Wlllesden, England, has set Infants’ cries to music. He was particularly impressed with the beauty and musical quality of the wails and cries of the infants at the baptismal services held at St. Matthew’s. *He tried to persuade the church musicians to catch the sounds and set them to music, but they refused. At length Rev._Mr. Hunt hipjgelf reJbrded the sounds In the form of a chant set to the words of the One Hundred and Thirty-seventh psalm: “By the .waters of Babylon we sat down and wept, when we remembered thee, O Zion.” “The composition Is original/’ Rev. Mr. Hunt says, “and it is a little grotesque, but it is musical. It represents the meaning of the words to which it is set.”
