The humor of Scotland (according to an English writer)-An old gentle- man “rived in a hot and breathless state at the railway station. "I say, porter," he panted, "why do they put the station so far away from the vil- tage?" The porter 'eplied--"wee1, sir, I couldna say; but I think it was to be near the line." He would frequently take a pencil in each hand, and draw a horse with the right and a dog with the left, tslmul. mneously! Artists, who have a very high regard tor their physical fitness, are more apt to value twtrhamtednegg than most other people. The great animal paint- er, Sir Edwin lautdseer, was so won- derfully ambidextrous that he might have earned a his income on the music-hall stage had he been living to- day. He could not only draw with either hand equally well, but he could actually draw with both at once. General Sir Robert Baden-Powell is twohanded. When he was a. boy his mother showed some ot his drawings to John Ruskin, but expressed concern that her boy drew with the left hand. "Madam, let your son draw with which hand he likes." said Ruskin, and we took the advice, and did not check the boy. The result is that "B..P." is two- handed, and does all in his power to persuade every Boy Scout to make the best of both hands. Mr. Townsend, the art editor of "Punch," and himself a. most brilliant artist. is a splendid instance of the " feet of this training. His drawings are done with the left hand, but he writes with his right. He is a. left-handed billiard player, but he deals cards with the right. He is a left-handed bowler, but a right-handed batsman. And, after all, what is the use of having two hands it you do not use them both.' Yet the tact that the left hand Is Just as good a tool as the right has been proved by many letthtutded people, and it has often been urged upon our educational authorities that it would be well to train every boy and girl from infancy to use either hand Indif- terently--ia short, to make them am- bidextroum or twehanded. ‘Every Boy and Glrl Should Be Trained l to Use Both Hands. Many brave men when the war is over will have to earn their living with only one hand. As a rule, they may count themselves fortunate if the one left to them is the right. because ninety-nine per cent, of mankind, for some strange reason, are brought up to use that hand almost exclusively, using the left only where two hand! are needed, says London Answers.

You may ask why the drop in not immediately evaporated or changed to steam. The answer is this: The water vapor that intervenes between its under surface and the red-hot stove is not a good conductor of heat; consequently the full intensity ot the heat cannot get to the water itself, the only amount available for this purpose being that transmitted through the vapor. A young hopeful of four was " table with mother on Sand-y morn- ing, the father being from home for the week-end.

Goldfish in n ttr round to the right. I The water can never touch the stove at all. What you see is a few drops rolling rapidly over the surface. These become smaller and smaller (until they entirely disappear. If the drops are on a perfectly level place it can be proved that they are not in contact with the stove itself by the fact that one can see under them to the other aide of the room. What is the explanation? The bottom of the drop changes " once to steam or vapor on coming close to the hot surface. This vapor is supplied by the drop as it gradual- ly goes nwrty--in other words, the drop rests on a cushion of vapor until it has entirely disappeared. Why it is impossible to throw I few drops of water on a red-hot stove? Perhaps you never knew that this cannot be done. 1 However, there is no reason why an ordinary room in an ordinary house could not be set aside " little ex- pense. .
