Food for Argument in Matter of Doughnuts - No matter how lcng a man has lived, he is likely to have a few incorrect ideas that right reasoning has never been able to correct. We knew a man once who sold doughnuts of his own fabrication. He had laid up quite & little money and was doing very well. He vended a large-holed doughnut and his argument always had been that, the larger the hole, the less dough in the doughnut. He specialized, of course, on ' large holes and :small profits. £ This was all very well until, one day om his rounds, he met an argumentative man; Unfortunately, the doughnut man, in a moment of confidence, expounded to him his theory of the large hole and small profits. The argumentative- man shook his head. [e spent some time at it, but ‘he finally convinced the doughnut man that he had been working his business on a falluey. The argumentative man proved to the doughnut vender, .and, by mathematics, that thie smaller the hole in the doughnut, the less dough it took to go around it. The "doughnut man went home and figured over the matter so long and so intent'ly that he was eventually berefr of his reason and had to be confined.— A. J. R. in the Minneapolis Journal.
Reached Enemy’s Heart Through His Stomach Mrs. Laura. Fraser, the original Becky Thatcher of Mark Twain’s stories, related shortly before her death at Hannibal, Mo., how she had once gone through an experience as thrilling ‘as any that Twaiay had created for his fiction. During the Civil war Mrs. Fraser's husband was a strong southern sympathizer and as_he was a doctor he defied federal authorities in treating wounded Confederate soldiers. He finally was put in prison about the time that Gen. Joha MeNeil came to Hannibal teo suppress the southern sympathy and camped in Mr. Fraser’s front yard while he picked out ten prisoners of Confederate lsanings w 0 be ‘“converted”’ by a firing squad. Mrs. Fraser, fearing the .inclusion of her husband, invited the general to a specially prepared dinner and he was so overcome with culinary delights that he ordered Fraser’s release. But he reconsidered the next day and had him re-arrested, though he spared his life.—Detroit News,
Effects of Malnutrition
- Malnutrition is a condition of undernourishment or underweight, ~Children with malnutrition do not all behave the same way. Some are pale. dull and listless, with dark rings under the eyes, tire easily and have no ambition for work or-play: their work in school is often so poor that they must frequentiy repeat their grades. Others are nervous and fretful, hard to please, and hard to manage; they eat and sleep badly. Still others are overambitious, constantly active, restless; they find it difficult to concentrate. Children get into a condition of mailnutrition because their growth is not watched. To grow in height and gain regularly in weight is just as much a sign of health in a boy or girl of nine or ten as in a baby. :
Sand Blasting Effective
For cleaning metal surfaces for one purpose or another demanded by the industries the sand blast takes the first place. In reconditioning several thousand feet of track for a Southern streert railway, it was decided to resort to welding, and for this purpose the sur faces to be treated must be smooth bright and perfectly clean. It was de cided to do thig cleaning by sand blast and the report is that in one hour more and better work was done by one man than was possible previously in eight hours with four laborers using chisels and brushes.
Duck Champion Egg-Layer The domestic duck, used only for food in the United States, is coming into its own as an egg-layer in the British isles. * Over there, a farm having as many as 1,000 ducks is not un common, reports the Farm Journal. The average duck will produce almost twice as many eggs as the average chicken. In several laying trials, ducks have laid more than 300 eggs a year, and. one prodigious quacker has set a world’s record with 357 eggs in 365 days. ;
Have No Effect on Snakes
The belief is commonly held in some parts of the country that the odor of snake gourd and snake caiabash vines is unpleasamt te snakes and will keep them away. Negroes in the South plant the vines arcund their houses as a protection against snakes. United States Department of Agriculture observations do-not bear out this belief. The department has issued a statement that as far as its investigation goes, there is no plant that will repel snakes.
Ancient Aids to Eyesight
When the eyesight of Egypt's wise men grew feeble from study they used magnifying glasses to make the stone tablets and papyrus rolls easier to vead. This is indicated by pieces of round glass from Egypt, one of which, now in the Ashmolean collection, may date back to the first dynasty of Egypt, or about 3500 B. C. That magnifying glasses were knownp in the famous civilization of Crete, about 1200 B. C., had been shown by two crystal lenses discovered in the Cretan ruins.

THE LIGONIER BANNER, LIGONIER, INDIANA.
Name “Peony” Traced to - . Legend of Mpythology In the days of the Greek gods and goddesses, the peony first came to the world’s attention. - Leto, -Apollo’s mother, was the one to introduce it. Apollo was konown as the god of healing and his son, Aesculapius, was the god of medicine., It seems that a pupil of Aesculapius named Paeon was the physician of the gods, and to him Leto first gave thie plant which ‘he employed to <cure Pluto of a wound received at. the hands of Hercules during the Trojan war. . The fact that his pupil could surpass him in effecting such a cure made Aesculapius angry, with the result he atteiipted to kill Pagon, but Pluto, in~debted to Paéon for his own life, res'(}ued the physician of Mount Olympus Jfrom death by changing him into the plant that had saved his life. Until this day that plant hears Paeon’s name and is Known to us as.the peony. The history of the peony in China and Japan is of a sentimental nature. Fittingly-enough, the words “Sho Yo. meaning “Most Beautiful,” were applied® to-the herbaceous peony, while :the tree p‘éom{ held sway as the “King of Flowers,”-—Kankag City Star.
Only Dame Nature Can =~ = : Freshemr Mind and Body “The e:irth is the great reservoir of physical forces, and whilst no scientist hasgyet been able to discover how intimate or how perfect is the connection between the mental and the physical, there exists, no deubt, a correlation between the processes by which the hody and the soul are kept healthy and vigorous by drafts on the great reserves of nature. ; . “One grows tired of books and cloyed with all manner of art. Then comes a hunger and a thirst for nature. Real -thought gathering is like berry gathering—one must go to the wild vipes for the racy-tluvored fruit. Art an!l pature are really the antipodes of each other—one is original. the other second hand. When we go froni: the library or the studio to the woods or fields, we ge to get back what art has robbed us of —the freshness of nature. The suggestions of nature come—out of the mysterious. invisible generator; but “art merely reflects its suggestions back upon nature.”—Maurice Thompson. -
Near the Crater
There be two men whose ways we eannot fathom: veu. there-are three we o not understand, The first of the twain is the nian who has two wives at the same time. The other is the clerk_or accountant who steals from his employers and covers the theft by falgifying his books, -The third? He is the man who builds his house on the edge of a voleano that erupts every year or so. : All three are leik.e in that they know something iS going to blow up under them. Peace of mind has been called the summum bonum; it is the one thing they have put out of their reach, Of the three we think the man on the volcano’s marge has the most sense. After it lets go, there is a chance that he can build again somewhere else.—Cincinnati Times-Star,
Garden Memories
Three thousand years ago.the Magus Zoroaster, it is said, met: his own image walking in a garden; nowhere ‘else, we must suppese. but in a garden’s cloistered peace: could such.a meeting have been arranged. And when a man lets his fhoughts drift back to the happiness. so- deep ‘and ‘often so illusory, of his childhood’s home, it is in the garden that his memories crowd {the thickest, not in the house itself. The Goiden age was green with the shadow of boughs and silver with the luster of dew upon the grass.—Exechange. - .
Strangled From Space
Bcientific interest is being directed to a 35-ton formation recently discovered in southwest Africa which has all the appearances of being a meteor. It was discovered on a farm near Grootfontein ‘and is quite different in every way from any of the rocks to be found in that part of the country. This is almost as large as the meteorite which was brought from Greenland in 1907 by Commodore Peary, and if the African find proves to be a meteor by answering certain scientific tests, it will be regarded as a very ‘valubale find. > -
The Penalty
Five-vear-old ' Freda had taken ‘her watch to be repaired over a week ago, and was now seeing what had happened to it, “Ready on Tuesday, miss,” declared the man behind the counter. “You = promise” asked the Httle maiden seriously, : - “I promise,” replied the other, with a smile, : But on reaching the door the little girl turned round again. : “Mind you,” she said gravely, “if it isn’t ready by Tuesday I shall gue you for preach of promise.” :
