Origiual of “Uncle Toby.” Captain Roger Sterne, the father of the author of “Tristram Shandy,” was the original of Uncle Toby, As captain of Chudleigh’s regiment of foot, .a marching regiment ever on the move, Roger Sterne and his family tasted the most varied military and domestic ex- periences In Flanders, at Gibraltar and finally at Jamaica, where the old cam- paigner died of ‘“country fever.” A simple minded, good natured, but shift- less and rather peppery Irishman, Rog- er bore his disappointment bravely and carried his load of debt with a light heart. “My father,” says Sterne, “was BIJOU Automatic Drama—Vaudeville— Pop- ular Concerts. 302 THIRD ST, Every Evening 7:30 to 10:00.

Sunday, Monday, Tuesday of a kindly, sweet disposition, void of all design and so innocent in his own Intentions that he suspected no one, so that you might have cheated him ten times a day if nine had not been suffi- clent for your purpose.” Such a char- acter and such a'father supplied the germ from which the genius of the son developed his conception of one of the most perfect and delightful portraits in the gallery of English fiction. Sex and Rebirth. The. theories concerning the possi- bility of our having previously -existed seem to be endless. Of them all I think the one best which suggests that sex is reversed at rebirth and that when we turn up eons after we previously ex- isted we do so either as' men or women according to whether we were women or men aforetime. This largely ac- counts for the suffragette and for the long haired, thin voiced creatures who potter around boudoirs, play the phmoi like “sweetly pretty” things and call themselves men. Presumably the best material of which we were fashioned ; then is now used In our composition, for the most manly women and effemi- nate men generally have some good ! points about them. But if one is to keep on performing these Protean feats | through all ages it hardly seems worth while worrying over sex problems. It seems to me, in the long run, that we shall each get about equal, according | to this arrangement.—London World. The Remarkable Rhea. “The rhea of South America is a re- markable bird,” sald an ornithologist. ' The male rhea hatches out the eggs.! He and not the femalé is the setter. ' He sets always in a'quiet/'and desolate place, where there s no food, nothing to attract enemies, and as soon as the young are born the question is how to feed them. The rhea answers that question in advance. Three or four days before the eggs are to open he' shoves a couple of them out of the nest with his bill and lays them in the sin. | ‘What is the result? The result is that the hot South African sun decompnses: the eggs, ‘and the father breaks them: as' the young birds begin to appear in ! the nest, and the flies settle on them | and in twenty-four hours they are‘alive | with - worms—tender, juicy, - delicious’ worms, the best food in the world for} the nest of new born birdlings.” | Garrick ax ‘Author. ' Writing of Garrick’s literary efforts, I suppose not every ‘one knows that he ‘was the author of such well known lines as: Thelr cause I plead, plead it in heart and mind; A fellow ' feeling makes one “wondrous nd. Or this again: Let others hail the rising sun; 1 bow to that whose.course has run. Or again: Hearts of oak are our ships, Hearts of oak are our men. But I suppose every one knows his epigram on Goldsmith, “who wrote like an angel-and- talk’d: like poor Poll,” an epigram that conveyed only half the truth, as Garrick Would-have been one of the first'to admit.—London Sphere. Habit. . Habit i one 'of the world’s control- ling Influences. : More men are ‘swayed by: force: of 'habit, unconsciously per- haps, ‘than any: other motive. : The hab- it of doing certain’ things in a certain way grows from beginnings so small as to be scarcely noticeable untll it forms 'a ‘chain- that can:scarcely be broken.
