Nurm at the Front Have' Their Much M Do TWr ?(star* In Civil Lift. ?Thew eainn to my notice while ?!?? Itlng the hospitals on the French front an Incident that Illustrates the spirit of the troops/' remarked Dr. H. J. Bryan, an American pbyslctan. who speut severs! months at the front. **Too much prslse canhot be given the young woinenjwho have gone from the United States and Canada to 'do their bit,' and, you may believe me, the Brit" lah and French soldiers are grateful. "A Canadian nurse, a beautiful girl, was In chsrge of one of the wards at Kataples. It was Cfcrlatmaa time, and the young woman had worked un ceasingly to mske the room ss attmo tive as possible that the poor fellow* lying on their cots might hsve a bit of the Christmas spirit. All ths tim* she was sttendlng to her duties aa a nurse. She hsd put the last touoh oa the Christmss decorations, had Sgea that her convsleecents van comfort able, snd In the early morning, weary from hours of conatant vigil, aha COO* tided to oae of her "boys' that she waa very tired snd would rest. "An hour lster the nuree returned, and to her #irprlse she found a one legged hero tapping around the roopi making up the beds. He had Just finished the last one when the nurse entered. Her doty, of course, was ta scold, but the psthetlc fsce of the wounded aoldler, turned upon her with a look of supreme satisfaction, melted the words on her Hps. and, woman like. she burst Into tears. This young woman afterward married a Scotch officer, whom aha had. nursed, and the happy pair are living In Dorset, In Knglsnd." . ? New York's Mental D*f?otivM. There are 80,000 iivental defectives In New York atate and It will take $12,600,000 adequately to provide for them, says the state board of charltlea In it* fiftieth annual report. But 0.740 of these defectives are in asylums or other Institutions and of this number the state has accommodatlona for 0,000 but more than 1,000 more are crowded into the shelter of the wards. The board says it is getting appeals every day from orphan asylums, school autborKJgwr, poor law officials and courts begging for proper places in which to keep feeble-minded children who need custodial care. The sum of $2,000,000 is asked for the completion of the Letchworth vil lage colony, near New York city, to increase the capacity from 300 in mates to 8,000 Inmates. The annual appropriation of $2,500, 000 is urged until the state has built up its asylum capacity. The board In nine months of the last fiscal year re ceived $2,530,888 for state institutions with 11,392 Inmates, and expended $2. 498,141, of which $742,349 was for buildings and improvements. The pri vate institutions under public super vision, with 8,298 inmates, got from public sources $698,362, from private sources $484,908 and spent $1,133,654. Thoughts Mold Character. Learn to think caTTesSlynEmd deeds In kind will soon follow. Remember what you think enters into the molding of your charcter. Men who permit the mind to dwell on the sensuous soon And themselves on the way to ruin. Men with high Ideals and determina tions move steadily upward. Somehow the world Just makes way for them. In this busy old world you Just must keep going. What the mind dwells on most toill determine the direction and speed at which you go. You must think in terms of vision. See the great and aim to realise it. Even If the thing is beyond your present reach, the fact that you try fits you for the good you are bound to come to later if you keep trying. You must think well of your self also. That's part of the program. Unless you can respect yourself as a workman you will have trouble com manding the respect of others. Be particular about your thinking,?Ex change. Ant Cows. Ants are frequently noted on roses and on other ornamental and garden plants, and it Is naturally supposed that they are doing harm to these. As a matter of fact, it Is not the plants that attract the ants, but plant lice. These tiny creatures excrete a sweet liquid of which ants are very fond and which they collect without injur ing the plant lice. For this reason plant lice are frequently termed "ant cows." The analogy is emphasized by the fact that ants have been known to take plant lice lqto their nests, shel* ter them through the winter and ro? turn them to suitable plants in thS spring, very much as men a*fe accus tomed to feed and shelter cows throughout the winter, putting them on pasture with the coming o$the spring. Clearing the Trenches. Perhaps the hardest thing to learn ts to clear the enemy's trenches after a foothold has been gained in a portion of It. This is where the hand-to-hand fighting comes in and it Is the work of the grenadiers, seconded by the gren ade bearers. They must advance from embrasure to embrasure tep yards ahead of them into the next section of trench and drive the enemy back along the trench or down Into the dugouts. As they move forward, they must dear the dugouts, throwing grenades down the steep stairs, often twenty to thirty yards underground, then descending into the pitchy blackness to send their grenades searching into every corner of the dugout, not to leave an effective enemy behind them. Wandering Mongeart Arabs Dwell in Pastoral Simplicity. OblIdr*n AttMd School Only If Thoy With, and Ar* N?v?r Corrected? Youth* May B? Considered Men at Vory Karly A?#. The Mongearts are a tribe of wan dering AihIih which Inhabit the Huha^i. or Or?'tti diMort of Africa. Their time Is wholly occupied by tending their cattle, and because they ure little skilled In the use of arms, Mongeart Is ? term of contempt among the people -bjr whom they are sutrouuded. The Mahometan priests ars em ployed lu traveling about the country to Instruct the children. There Is uothlug like force In the education of a Mongeart boy. The little fellows meet In th? morning, of their own accord, at the place of Instruction, which is to them a place of recreation. They go there with a small board lnNcrlbed with the Arabic characters and u few maxims of the Koran. The oldest and the best informed re ceive their lessons directly from the priests, and afterward communicate them to their companions. They are never corrected, because It would be a crime to beat a child who, according to their popular notions, has not sufficient reason to distinguish good from evil. This lenity extends even to the chil dren of Christians, though In a state of slavery. They are treated In all re spects like the children of Arabs, and the man who should be rash enough to strike one of them would endanger his life. Very different Is their treatment of negro children, who may Indeed join In all the amusements of the young Arabs, and even attend the public schools, but, if they be guilty of a fault they are severely punished. When the child of a Mongeart be comes tired of the places of public in struction, he quits them at pleasure, and without feeling constraint or hear ing reproach; goes and employs him self In tending his father's flocks; and, accordingly, there are very few among them who can read. Those who perse vere in the study of the Koran are made prleuts, after having passed an examination before the learned elders, and enjoy the greatest public consid eration. They have no need of cattle, for those of the nation being theirs, they find their subsistence everywhere. It is generally at seven or eight years of age that these children have their heads shaved, nothing being left but four locks of hair?one of which Is cut off In a meeting of the family at each remarkable action performed by rhe child. If, at the age of twelve or thjrteen, he kills a wild boar or other beast of prey that should fall upon his flock, he loses one of his locks. If, In the passage of a river, a camel be car ried away by the stream and he saves It by swimming to its assistance, an other Is cut off. If he kills a Hon, a tiger or n warrior of a hostile nation in a surprise or an attack, he Is consid ered as~a man, and his head Is entirely shaved. Chinese "Knife Coins." Can you Imagine a woman going into a local department store, asking for a camisole or a chemise or any one of those hundred or more delicate things that women wear, laying a dollar bill on the counter, and receiving three safety razor blades as change? You can't. And yet, If the United States treasury department would take a tip from the Chinese that's about how small change would stock up for womankind and others, In America. For practical purposes the Chinese "knife coins" on exhibition at the Old National Museum at Washington can't be beaten. With a perfectly formed razor, a colored man with carv ing tendencies would only need a few cents in "knife" change to be in a paradise of his own making. Luckily, museum officials say, the "razor coins" are many thousands of years old, and there Isn't any fear ex pressed that the ancient style will be adopted by the government. Only Job That Would 8ult Him. At one of the draft examinations an irascible young man made It clear that he did not care for any part of war. ? While surgeons w^re thumping him he explained that he would not claim ex emption but that he wished heartily that the government had asked him to do any service except fighting. He hated fighting on any account. A surgeon looking over his official examination paper, noticed that the young, man was a chauffeur. "Well," the surgeon said, "It Is a 12-to-l shot that you will be driving an ammunition wagon or something of that sort. How would that do?" The young man looked thoughtful. "The only Job I'd like In war," he said, "would be to operate a taxi for a re treating general." Drawing Closer to France. One of the Interesting results of the war is a proposal to make greater use of French science and learning In this country. One of the methods pro lK>sed for doing this is to establish ten or more graduate fellowships for American students in French univer sities. to be awarded competitively for ten years. After the revelation of the limitations of German profes sors, a movement toward making greater use of French universities should rr?icce< ed. And no doubt, after what America is doing. France would welcome the Americans. of Time That in what thia community haa applied to this store and we have stood the test.
