And our facos must he sunny all day long,
For IA fresh ms highland heather

When the outside seems to lie no very wrong.
But II with the outdoor sunshine all the happy

And the trees are budding in the glad, warm

And the arbutus IN pceping from Its brown

And the face of day IL fresh and sweet and

two strangers, one a young man, pret

was paid to the pair, beyond q hasty
scrutiny. The citizen and his wife
were thinking of taking a trip to s

First Person Photographed.

1t was In 1912 that John Draper, then
professor in the University Of New
York, made the first portrait photo
graph. The subject was Elizabeth
Draper, his sister. Prof. Draper had
the idea that in order to produce dis
tinct facial outlines in photography it
would be necessary to cover the coun-
tenance Of the person photographed
with -four. This seems n strange TO-
ton now, and it proved not to be good
one then, for all of Prof. Draper's early
attempts were failures. Finally he left
out the flour and then was quite sue
cessful. This SO delighted him that he
sent the picture to Sir William Hersch-
ell, the eminent English astronomer.
Sir William was in turn delighted. and
made known Prof. Draper's success to
the scientific men Of Europe. He also
sent Prof. Draper letter Of acknowl-
edgment and congratulation, which
has been carefully preserved in the
archives Of the Draper family.

DO We Need a New White House

writes ex-President Harrison in the
Ladies' Home Journal. '.SOme have
proposed to abandon the house as a
place of residence, to give 1t wholly
over to official uses, and to build n new
home for the President; others suggest
to make the home strictly and solely a

fees to a suitable new building. 1t
would be a great shame. think, to d.
vert this stately and historic house to
another and a meaner use than that to
which 1t was set apart when Washing

We noticed the departure Of Dr..
Wemp and family for Riverdale, last
week. This week we are pleased to
note that they returned on Tuesday
morning. Crawling is not the finest,
and perhaps, not the must prosperous
town In Northern Michigan, but 1t is
healthy, and attractive, with good So
cletY, and those who get discontent-
ed and move away, generally return.
Our advice to all Is, plant shade trees
tomorrow, repair the fences, repaint
your houses aud otherwise make our
town so attractive that no one will
think of moving to a more attractive
locality.

Nessrs Forbes and Ambjorson. On
account of lack of funds 1t will not
be built as first proposed, but In such
a manner that the original inten-

difference is that the building will
be two feet less In width, and the
basement will not be completed, only
In a sufficient manner to put in the

ment to our city. even II 1t is not just
