The Arc de Triomphe.

The number of names of battles,
sieges and captured towns engraved
upon the Arc de Triomphe, Par.s, is 15S.
the first being the battle of Valmy (Sep-
TENDER 20. 1922, and the last the COM
bat of Ligny. which preceded the bat
tie of Waterloo, and is claimed by the
French as victory. The number of
Marshals. Generals and other field OIL
GERS whose names are also to be read
upon the walls of the arch is 658, of
whom l26 were killed upon the field Of
battle. The first of the 658 names is
that Of .'Chartres," the sou of Philippe
Egalite. better known to history as
Louis Philippe. who, like his father,
distinguished himself at Nalmy. Upon
the summit of the arch, facing the SUBJ
urb of Neuilly. is the inscription, which,
translated into English, would read:
This monument, commenced in 1906
in honor of the Grand Army, for some
time left unfinished. was continued in
1886 by King Louis Philippe l.. who has
consecrated it to the glory of the
French armies" The Arc de Triomphe
is the largest monument of its kind, be-
ing 165 feet high by $50 feet broad and
IS feet thick. 1t is rather more than
double the height of the Arch of Con-
stantine at Rome. The total cost of the
Arc de Triomphe was f372, l4O.-Lon-

WASHINGTON IN SUMMER.
PeculIarItIes of the Scenery and TOpo-
graphy of the National Capital.

PeculIarItIes OF the Scenery and Topo-
graphy of the National Capital.
The weather here is very warm, with
frequent showers. The city is forest
of green and our $4,000 shade trees are
in full leaf. Washington grows more
beautiful every day and the improve
ments steadily continue. The flats are
fast being reclaimed and within few
years there will be magnificent park,
with fountains, lakes and trees, be-
tween the White House and the Poto-
mac. The work on the State, War and
Navy building, which has already cost
about $1,000. 900, is being done as fast
as possible, and the new Pension build
ing, the Roman palace of the twelfth
century, is ready in some parts for Oc-
cupancv. The streets of Washington
are being beitered everywhere. On
Newspaper row fine pavement of
granite blocks has been laid, and this
will now be one of the thOroughfares.
The asphalt pavements of the Capital
extend over nearly one hundred miles
of space, and there is no cleaner city in
the world Every night the streets are
swept up with great revolving machine
like brooms, and the dirt is carted away.
The drives about and through Washing.
ton are unsurpassed. Your carriage
rolls over this asphalt as though you
were rolling over the smoothest floor,
and you may ride for miles after rain
without splashing your buggy with
mud. There is much to see in a drive
through the city, and new object of
interest meets your eye at every turn.
Out OF the town the roads are good and
the scenery picturesque. You may
ride out to Bladensburg, where the duels
have been fought for generations and
where many a brave man has d ed.
You may 90 across to Alexandria.
where Washington went to church and
where Braddock rested before he went
on his noted march. or you can drive
through old Georgetown over to Airing
ton. where the great rebel General,
Robert Z. Lee. lived, and where Martha
Gusts read curtain lectures to the
father of this country. A pretty drive
is along the banks of the Potomac to
the big chain bridge or to Cabin John
bridge, which is the largest span in the
world. Another is the road to Mt YER
non and others lead to famous historic
points through this very famous hisiOr-
ical region.-Carp, tn Clere!dnd Leader.

THE DAIRY.


Butter in alright packages keeps
longest.
Dogs are poor cowboys for driving
up dairy stock.
Whey makes an excellent drink for
calves, if some bran or shipstuff is mixed
with it.
Dealers in butter in New York. where
they have law squarely prohibiting
the sale of oleomargarine and other inn
itation butter, state that the honest en-
forcement of the law is having the
effect of increasing the demand for
genuine dairy butter, says Foards
Dairyman.
"A little extra food should be given
awhile before the cow calves, and it
should be of cooling. loosening ma

cow has regained her strength, she

Purity in butter and cheese consti-

No comment that could be made on
foolhardy attempts put forth at the peril

make them the last of their kind. This
itching after notor;cty is on = line with
other experiences constantly encoun-
tered in this mundane world-it is the
attempt to secure a public pre-emnence
by offering something of an eXtraordi-
nary character. quite phenomenal and
distinct by itself; and this, on the part
of those who, not having the character
and the capacity 20 win the worlds re-
gard. are not at all content to quietly do
their duty in whatever direction that
dutv-psth may be. So they seek by the
perfo nance of some extraordinary feat
10 attract the attention of the public
upon themselves. In such a work the
chief incentive is personal vanity, and
this feeling il not lessened but increased
by the fact that all these personages
mistake uotoriety for fame and reputa-
ton for character. OF course money
making is also an accompaniment of
these performances, but that is inciden-

Sam Patch made his widely-known and
fatal leap. Patch had previously at

sensation and also to obtain such
recuniary contributions as large

A Case of Too Much Jackass and Too
Little Owner.
Opposite the Cass Avenue Driving
Park some one is pasturing jackass
for the summer He's no mule nor half
horse arrangement, but simon-pure
jackass of the old-time sort-homely as
hedge-fence hit by a cyclone, ugly as
disappointed office-seeker, and having
a voice warranted to scare a baby into
fits at distance of mile and half.
If this beast would be content to be
seen and dubbed and inSulted it would
not be so bad on the residents of Piety
Hill. but he has plans of his own. Forty
times day he breaks in on the peac.
and goodwill of the community by
throwing up his head and Jerking out:
''Oh! Haw-haw! Haw-haw! Haw-

half mile around. 1t brings a SILVER

every woman's heart Infants wake up
and weep aud the bravest school-b boy
instinctively feels for His revolver as the
danger signal booms over the vacant
lots.
Forty times per night that iackass
wakes from his Titful siumbers rubs his
eyes on an old bootleg and braces his
legs to yell out:

Let his owner take warning. Some day
there will come the wild rush of fren-

But much fear her logic clear and all her

We're lost upon my listening ear and my en-

For when she talked of botany, and leaves and
