It is one of the most beautiful and occupies one of the most charming points of view in the city and we congratulate Mf. and Mrs. Gordon upon the delightful new home they have acquired. But moving from the old home into the new was not as pleasant to Mr. Gordon as the transfering of ones place of abode from the humble cottage, to the -magnificent mansion, usually is, to those who have so deservedly earned the ability to possess as much.

For the old home which Mr. Gordon vacated was the one in which he has spent his life; the one than which he knew no other. For 85 years and since his earliest childhood it has been his home. The recollections of scenes of childhood cannot be cast aside. Where in childhood one has rested in a mothers arms, soothed to rest by her fond lullaby in youth has Wichita flour.

As to the character of the first instrument for throwing missiles, and just when it was invented, we have no certain knowledge, but it must have been at an t-arly date, for we read in Genesis 10:9 that "Nimrod was a mighty hunter before the Lord," and surely the skill that has kept his name in remembrance for thousands of years must have been gained by the use of some surer weapon than the clubs or stone knives of primitive man. Without doubt man early learned how much execution can be done by a well-aimed stone, and attempts to hurl it with greater force and accuracy probably led to the invention of the sling-, one of the simplest as well as one of the most formidable of these early weapons. It was long one of the principal Instruments of war among the ancients, and the story of. David and Goliath is a (rood illustration of what could be done by one skilled In its use. This skill, however, could be acquired only by early and careful training.

In the Balearic islands, it is said, in ancient times the parent suspended the dinner of their boys upon poles and required them to bring1 it down with slings before they were allowed to eat. Lippineott's. RcTMlcd by the Hands. A large hand is always better than a small one. It indicates a person of some unusual powers.

The possessor of a' small hand will attempt almos'. anything, rarely, howefer, finishing anything he undertakes; is easily satisfied, both with himself and with the world in general; is fond of gayety and excitement; makes and loses friends with the same easiness; is impressionable and inflammable to a high degree; is religious, but not deeply so, will make promises and break them without compunction, and will be unable to bind himself to details.
