SUMMER, WISDOM. | How To Prevent Fainting Fits | Dizziness, And Other Hot Weather Dangers. Various Answers Received From a Large Number of Public School Pupils. Dr. George F. Dawson of the Bible Normal college has classified answers received from 1,307 pupils of the public schools of this city, given in response to the question, “If you bad $5, all your own, what would you do with it?’’ Of those who passed in answers 669 were boys and 638 were girls, their ages ranging from 5 to 16. The answers are grouped under nine general heads: 44 per cent would deposit the money ina bank, 13.8 per cent would buy cloth- ing, 2.2 per cent would buy something to eat, 15.3 per cent would buy toys and other means of amusement, 2.1 per cent would buy jewelry and finery, nine-tenths of 1 per cent would buy fire- arms, 1.7 per cent would spend for travel, 14 per cent would spend for oth- ers and 6 per cent would buy books, etc. It is interesting to note the large per cent who express a disposition to save. Dr. Dawsen attriputes this largely to the suggestability of the childrex. The results in this respect resemble those obtained in other fields of experiment. While the children do not realize the full significance of saving, the idea has been engrafted upon their minds and is bound to have its influence. The fact that this idea of saving has been thus forcibly impressed on the minds of so many is very significant and gives usa hint of the immense influence of public instruction, In noting the per cent of those who would buy clothing it should be remem- DURING CONFERENCE Keep the Biood Cool and Pure by Using Dodd’s are the Only Perfect Blood The eighth General*Conference of the Methodiat Church of the Maritime Provinces op-ned in the basement of the Brick Church in this city to-d D ‘, Tablete—T!

Those who voted for something to eat were mostly under 7 years of age. In the class who would prefer amuse- ments the girls usually expressed a wisb for dolis and doll carriages while the boys mostly desired pigeons, rabbits or other pets. In regard to travel, the figures show that as children grow old- er the desire to go out into the world increases rapidly, reaching its height at about the beginning of adolescence. The desire shown by the boys for firearms ia au expression of the bunting instinct that awakens when they are 10 or 12. At that age boys like to get hold of books of hunting and adventure. The tendency to buy books increases steadily as the children grow older. This class numbers about twice as many girls as boys. The class which manifests a feeling of altruism also numbers more girls than boys, showing that the greater gether charming city of Washington is found among the blacks. The drivers, for example, of the warious dilapidated vebicles, which are by courtesy called carriages, are thoroughly amusing. One who drove a large, lank animal built on the lines of a wooden horse and with little more spirit in him sat on the box of a four wheeler that would have disgraced the stables of a country inn. The flourish and elegance of that coach- man, however, were as fine as if he wore tho liveries of the presideit and held the ribbons over the most prancing steeds He kept his eyes inflexibly fixed upon the ears of his borse and drew up at a destination with the air of reining in a mettlesome charger. When his car- riage was emptied, he passed on with a flourish and sweep, headed around and at once put his entire outfit at sharp at- tention. The ceremony of approaching the curb, on seeing his fare reappear, was equally imposing. His green driv- er’s coat was ragged and shabby, his bat was slightly battered and knew no sbine, his whip was as destitute of springs as were the seats of his brough- ain, and the rough coat of his steed was all that saved the animal from gaunt emaciation, yet over the whole York Post.

J An Englishman recently traveling through central lodia mace a poculiar disvovery.

They informed him that they were bfeeders of snakes and put them in the pit. the bottom of which was covered | over with dried grass and leaves. They kept the snakes there some six months, feeding them on all kinds cf smal) animals and birds. They then filleda large earthen pot with poisonous herbs, lighted it, low- ered it into the pit and secured the tight fitting wooden cover, and thus smothered the reptiles.
