FOND OF TURKEY.

Dogs in Rhode Island Even Killed
One Intended for the President.
From the Providence Journal
During the past year more than the
usual number of young turkeys were killed
by dogs. This slaughter of poultry has
presented serious financial problem to
the members of the town council of Wester-
ly, whose duty it is to authorize the pay
ment of sums sufficient to cover the farmers
loss. Bills amounting to several hundred
dollars have already been paid during the
past nine months for damages to poultry
by dogs. The difficulty has assumed such
proportions that it is one of the principal
subjects for discussion at the regular
monthly town council meetings.
1t was during one of these discussions
about turkeys a month or two ago that a
member of the council told his fellow-mem-
bers that, having occasion to dissect dog,
which had been found among a flock, he
found within the heads of twelve young
turkeys. The hearers OF the story were
fncreduious, yet all were impressed with
the Importance of immediate action to SUD-
press the unnecessary slaughter of poultry.
AS yet the problem has not been solved,
and still the CANNES roam about the town.

FAME BY ACCIDENT.
n Story of Il French Painter and His
Struggles With Adversity.

n story of Il French Painter and His
Struggles With Adversity.
The French painter, Bastien Lepage, who
died recently, was pursued by unmerciful
disaster through his youth IN his efforts to
study art, says an exchange. His mother
worked in the fields to keep that sckly boy
at school. At fifteen he went to Paris
alone, starved for seven years, painted
without success, but still painted. He had
just finished picture to send TO the salon
when Paris was besieged. and he rushed.
with his comrades, to the trenches.
On the first day shell fell into his stu
do and destroyed his picture and another
shell fell at his feet, Wounding him. He
was carried home and lay i'll and idle for
two years. Then he returned to Paris and
reduced to absolute want, painted cheap
fans, in order to earn himself living.
One day manufacturer of some patent
medicines ordered a picture from him to il
lustrate its virtues. I.epage, who was sin
ceTe, gave his best work to the advertise
ment. He painted landscape in the April
sunlight; the leaves of tender green CULVER
ed in the breeze; group of beautiful girls
gathered round the fountain from which
the elixir of youth sprang in a bubbling
stream Lepage believed there was real
merit in it,
Let me offer it to the salon. he said to
his patron.
The manufacturer was delighted But
first paint a rainbow arching over the foun-
tain" he said, with TIE maine of my
medicine upon it." Lepase refused. Then
l Will not pay YOU sou for the p:cture!"
The price of MS picture meant bread for
months and the painter had long needed
bread. The chance of admission to the sa-
Ion was small. He hesita:ed. Then he
Silenced his hunger and carried the canvas
to the salon. 1t was admitted. Its great
success insured Lepagc a place in public
recognition, and his later work u place
among the greatest living artists.

Gloves Now Instead of Mitfens.

From the Chicago Tribune
1t will comfort the young man who
presses The dainty gloved hand in the dance
to know that he may possess the glove
later Old evening gloves have been turned
TO account in the way which is most dotted
on by men who roll their own cigarettes or
use a pipe.
This fad for tobacco pouches made from
the long ends of evening gloves bids fair to
outdo all previous records of souvenirs.
Nothing could be more simply made
Whether they are embroidered or painted in
water color depends upon how much value

gift The bottom of the glove is drawn in
tightly. and neld together with a ribbon
bow, a tassel, or plainly stitched. The top
is slit several times for a ribbon to be run
in and out twice, to allow it to be drawn
together like all oid-fasfioned purse.
Once the glove is bought and fingers
worn out there is no expense attached to
the exceedingly dainty gift which is sure
to inspire frequent thoughts OF the donor.

little gold footstool in front of it. There
Is a toilet table the top Of which Is made
of lapis lazuli and the feet of which are
claw-shaped. the claws being made of dia-
monds, emeralds, rubies and carbuncles.
Big diamonds hang down from the top Of
the table, and along the edge Of 1t there
is deep fringe of diamonds.
Another wonderful thing is the collection
of bed quilts, which are embroidered with
pearls. Take the quilt Of a wide bed
and cover it with pearls of all sizes,
from those as big as pin to some as large
as the latest chestnut. String thousands
Of such pearls into all shapes, so that they
cover the quilt with embroidery, and you
nave some idea of the kind of bed clothes
under which the most famous of the sultans
OF the past have slept. And then the collec-
ton of armor! There are numerous swords.
and upon one sword hilt 1 counted fifteen
diamonds, each of which was as big as the
top of a mans thumb and there were other
swords set with all kinds of Jewels There
We're saddles embroidered with pearls, with
stirrups of silver. There were pipes set with
diamonds, and one case contained the cos
tunes of The sultans OF the past, each of
which blazed with precious stones. OF the
gold plate there were dishes of solid gold big
enough for babys bath tub and there
were plates. cups and saucers, tureens and
pitchers, massive and heavy, made of this
same precious metal. The collection filled a
number of rooms and it must be worth
many millions. 1t contains the accumulated
treasures and relics of the sultans of the
past, and when the Turkish empire is finally
divided up among the rulers of Europe there
Will be great scramble for tie most
precious objects in these treasury vaults.
After leaving this treasury visited the
tombs of the sultans. These are to be seen
In one of the mosques at Constantinople.
They are made of marble. and each tomb is
surrounded by fence of wrought silver and
covered with the most precious of Cashmere
shaWls The fez cap of the sultan beneath
studded with diamonds. is placed on top of
his tomb. and outside the fence on racks of
ebony inlaid with pearl are the manuscript
korans used by the sultan and kept there
as an evidence of his fidelity to his religion
There are a number of such tombs in this
mosque, but there is room for more, and the
present sultan will eventually be laid here to
rest. FRANK G. CARPENTER

No Future for the Heavies.

1t is more than ninety years since the
Edinburgh and Quarterly were started. and
the chance of either OF them reaching the
century of life is generally declared to be
remote, Their more unfrfendly observers
assert. indeed, as they nave asserted this
week, that they are already dead. and that
nothing but the reluctance of their pro-
rrietors to part with objects which during
their lives have been SO conspicuous pre-
vents their being decently buried. They
are. ii has also been otter asserted, too duh
to be read. except by old fogies who do not,
in truth, read them, but, in pretending to
do so, hope TO conceal the fact that they
and the world OF literature have long since
parted company.
No person of the day will willingly open
periodicals published at such long intervals
of time, or study articles so lengthy and
re TO be beiated. They have been
superseded. it is alleged for all purposes OF
controversy or criticism, by a swarm OF
monthly reviews, ana even these latter, il
