Judging by all account, the real, central, spotltsh;. figure in the Inaug ural procession at Washington next month will be one Thomas Kiley iMar atball of Indiana, vice president-elect - While Wood row Wilson li busy put. tfng the quietus on the inaugural ball and on other ceremonies that usually . accompany the induction into olliee of. the new president, Mr. Marshall'! friends are getting ready to cut the biggest dash that any vice preslden- trial party ever cut In Washington on any March 4th since the days, of the cherry tree cutter. Mr. Marshall will shatter all precedents when he goes down Pennsylvania avenue, escorted from the white house to the capliol by a black horse squadron that will outshine and outpoint altogether tlx gallant squadron from Essex that is tc accompany the president-elect . Chiefs of the Inaugural ceremonies did not take kindly to the plan of the , Hoosicr friends of (Marshall to make second place outshine first place, but there is apparently a desire on Mr. Wilaon's par to let the black borse squadron march and do honor to Mar. hall and to Indiana, , The vice presidentelect ordinarily rides from the white house, to the cap ital with the outgoing vice president or the president pro-tern of the sen ate, as the case may be, in a carriage ' following the one occupied by the president-elect, but with sufficient dis tance and enough people in between the two to make it certain that (he .escort of honor Is for the chief ..and not for the subordinate: ,, - This year, however, there will be two escorts of honor and a division of the acclaim of the people along the ronte. The mettled chargers which will precede, flank and take up he rear -of Mr. Marshall's carriage are the property of a private military arlhool In the Hoosler state, and tl.e T will be bestridden by husky cadeti trained along cavalry linea like onto those followed at west Point Mr. Marshal may yet make some thing out of jbe office of vice presi dent ' - ' .

The curious woys lu which fisbea eat form quite a study. Some fishes have teeth and some, bare cne at all. In some the teeth nrei found upon the tongue, in some In (be throat and In some In the stomach.; Some draw In their food, by sucton; the sturgeon is one of this class. The Jellyfish ab sorbs Its food by wrapping its body around the prey it covets. The star fish fasten Itself to Its victim, turns Ita stomach wrong side out and en gulfs Its dinner without the formal ity of swallnn-ing it through a mouth first ; So there are all sorts of methods for those regularly , toothless, and the fishes which have teeth show almost as great a diversity lu the cumber, style and arrangement of tbem.

Good Hard Thinking Will Hslp You Mentally and Phyeioally. Exercise your body If yon will-that cannot harm you and Is pretty sura to do youS great deal or good but, what ever else you do or neglect to do, keep thinking. The well established law of the physical universe that a machine tends to rust out mora quickly than to wear out holds equally good In the psy chical sphere. .It is no mere colncldeuce that most of the greut thinkers of the world, whether in philosophy, science, indus try, literature or the arts, have lived to ue old men despite the fact that in youth they were in many Instance physical weaklings. Significant, too, is the fact that the majority of tbem be gan to think, began to exercise their minds along the lines In which they ul timately achieved greatness, while they were still youug. There is here a preg nant hint for parents. Whatever aptitude, whatever special interest your child chances to dlsplny encourage him in it Don't deaden his desire for knowledge, bis Instinctive tendency to think, by Indifference, by failure to answer his incessant bom bardment of questions. Rather thank God that your child has an active mind and set about tnlnlug him in the prop er use of It. Teach him the principles of observation, of analysis, of svnthesls the principles. In short, of truly effec-1 tive thinking. Accustom him to think-! Ing things out for himself and seek to Interest him in whatever it is well for him to know. You need not be afraid that he will overtax bis mind. No child's mind and uo man's either is overtaxed by anythlug in wblcb a real Interest Is taken. The trouble with most of us Is that we are not really interested In any thing. We bave Interests, to be sure. but they are diffuse, tbln. weak they do not grip us. That la why compara tively few of us ever think In the true sense of the term. That is why when we are called upon to do anything in the nature of sustained mental effort we are overwhelmed by doubt fear, worry, and mayhap bave finally to call in the doctor with his sage pronounce ment "Poor fellow, be bus been think ing too bard." In point of fact we have not been thinking at all simply i because we have not been Interested enough to think. , Let ns get truly Interested In some thing, no great matter what It Is, and we shall find that we can think about I it easily enough. And. thinking about tt definitely, tirelessly, earnestly think' ing about lt-'e shall find ourselves grow both In mental and bodily vigor. n. ' Addington Bruce in New York Sun.
