A DR. JOHNSON STORY.
Illustrating th. Differenoe Betwe.n
Assertion and Argument. >
Among the anecdotes of Dr.
Johnson is ope written not by. his
biographer, Boswell, but by another
contemporary, Dr. John Moore. ’< It
Sa illustrative of Johnson’s maimer
and the importance he gave to al
ignment properly conducted. Dr.
Moore said that he was one of a
company at Mr. Hoole’s. Mention
was made that counsel' were to be
beard in a certain case at the bar
of the house of commons. One of
the company asked Sir James John*
•ton if he intended to be present.
Sir James answered that he believ
ed he should not, because he paid
little regard to the arguments of
counsel at the bar of the house of
commons.
"Wherefore,” asked Dr. Johnson,
"do you pay little regard 1 > their
arguments, sir?”
^ “Because,” replied Sir James,
“they argue for their fee.’*
“What is it to you, sir,” rejoined
Dr. Johnson, “what they argue for?
You have nothing to do with their
motive, but you ought to weigh
their argument. Sir, you seem to
confound argument with assertion.
But there is an essential distinction
between them. - Assertion is like
an arrow shot from a longbow—the
force with which it strikes depends
upon the strength of the arm that
draws it. But argument is like an
arrow from a crossbow, which has
equal force whether shot by a boy
or by a giant.”
The narrator of this incident said
the whole company was struck by
the aptness and beauty of this illus
tration, which certainly was ex
pressed in clear and forceful Eng
lish and with few of the Latin de
rivatives with which the good doc
tor delighted to ornament his sen
tences.
One of the company said. “That
is indeed one of the most just and
admirable illustration that 1 ever
heard.”
“Sir,” said Dr. Johnson, “the il
lustration is none of mine. Yo»
will find it in Bacon.’'—Exchange.
The- Plant’* Eye*.
The eves of a plant are in the
leaf. The upper and lower sur
faces of leaves are covered by a
thin, transparent 6k.in, which in
many cases can be peeled off easily.
When examined under the micro
scope this skin is seen to consist of
innumerable compartments, or cells,
many thotasnnds of which are found
on a single leaf. They contain a
clear, watery sap, and their shape
is such that they behave like or
dinary convex or piano convex
lenses, the rays of light which fall
upon them being converged and
brought to a focus in the substance
of the leaf. According to Professor
Haberlandt, these cells enable the
plant to perceive -the difference be
tween light and dark and set up a
stimulus which results in the move
ment of the leaf into such a posi
tion that it can obtain the maxi
mum amount of light.
Itch relieved in 30 minuites by
Woolford’s Sanitary Lotion. Never

Take care That there are no nail*
upon which the pig can scratch hln>
self. .Nails mean scratches; scratches
meat) care; care takes time.
Remedy For Lie*.
If you want a cheap and effective
remedy for lice on dogs and cattle, just
try a bar of hard soap and a quart of
kerosene oil In water. It will kill
every louse, but not nits, so the dose
Will have to be repeated.
Economy In a Sprayer.
Seventy-five cents will get a good
■prayer, and as much more will buy
a gallon of fly killer. These two
things put together will save you
many times the amount in milk. Here
economy is the expenditure of money.
Keep th* Stables Claan.
, A mixture of gunpowder and lard fa
a good remedy for scratches and
'grease heel. But keeping the stables
and the horses’ legs clean Is better and
costs less.
Treatment For Colls.
A colt often bangs out Its tongue
because It Is inflamed with some Irri
tant. Search carefully for any sharp
body tbar may hove penetrated the
tongue and remove It. Or It may have
been lacerated in some manner. In
this case the cut must be sewed up
with catgut softened jn warm water
