THE PROFESSOR.

He's very learned in science,
And vague, historic fancies;
Likewise in art and ethics,
And mystical romances;
Astronomy he dotes on,
Philosophy delights him,
A specimen of augite
For hours Of toll reQuites him;
And yet, I'm very certain,
The mans forever looking
To ease dyspepsia's anguish,
BY some new style Of cooking.

Washington's new sartorial model, Her
man c. Norman, who was London's best
dressed man and is now the third secre-
tary of the British embassy, does not
consider 1t good form to wear less than
six different suits of clothes in day. At
that he has enough suits to last him for
a fortnight without repetition
Mr.. Norman not only believes in varfe-
ty, but lays much stress on the ethics OF
dress, and would not for the world so in
suit the proprieties as to wear morning
suit In the afternoon or an afternoon suit
In the evening.
This morning Mr. Norman wore a serge
sack coat, single-breasted vest and rather
wide trousers, carefully turned up and
revealing very strong, heavy-soled tan
shoes with bulldog toes. He had an ex-
tremely high collar and a four-in-hand
tie of the. same goods as his clothes,
without. pin or jeweled ornament. He
does not wear any jeweIry in the morn
ing.
His Salts were caught with ebony links.

MUNICIPAL ART.
Beauty should Not BE 0verIooke ed In
i'ublic improvements.


The Architectural League of New York
Inrely devoted an important meeting
to the discussion of the planning Of
cities. and the National Sculptors' soci
ETY. mas in like manner treated the EN-
bellishment of public places, with in
terestiug suggestions for the beautiti-
cation of rectangular street intersec-
tons. lt is TO the voluntary activity
of the most prominent members of this
latter society that we owe the creation
OF tile Dewey arch and colonnade. a
most important achievement in munic-
ipal art. In fact. most of the deeora-
tons of the Dewey festival in New
York were examples of municipal art
in the highest sense. the public moneys
being turned over to the artists.
New York's latest and greatest
achievement in municipal art is the
new appellate court building. In this
building the estimates of the archi-
tect. James Brown Lord originally
made large appropriation-abou
S21J.O0-fOr sculptural and pictorial
adornments. The exterior is built in
the classic style and is richly decorated
with groups and statues by French.
Karl Bitter and other prominent seulp-
tors. The main hall and the court
room have walnscoting and pilasters Of
golden Siena marble. and the walls are
covered with representations OF Law.
Justice and similar subjects.
Such achievements should be shining
and to the city of Chicago. says George
Kriphn in Chicago Record. The ex-
perience OF New York. however.
teaches us what to avoid as well as
what to initiate. We can see that the
most effective activity does not con-
sist in spending large sums of money
to erect great works of art, but In agi-
tatian. in holding competitions. in
pointing the way. 1t is also evident
that tile greatest works Of public art
must be paid for by the city govern.
ment Municipal art societies should
therefore keep in closest touch with all
public improvements and see that the
ideal of beauty is never forgotten. Our
artists too. might profit from the ex-
ample of their brethren in erecting the
Dewey arch. Even now the sanitary
canal commission is anxious to have
the Municipal Art league appoint an
architect to cooperate with the en-.
gineers in making the new bridges
beautiful as well as useful. Soon a
new city hall will be built and per-
haps a building for the board OF edu-
cation. Then will be our chaace to
come forward with plans and sugges-
tions

offered fur the section of road which
is Kept in the best order throughout

are proud Of their distinction as cham
pion ruad members. When all the roads
are pre-emiuent for their excellence. il
cannot be an easy matter for the most

but the effect Of the competition is TO
put every man on his metrle and to
increase the efficiency of the road serv-

WAYS OF ADVERTISING.
Much Time and Money Wasted In
Useless Publicity Schemes.

The Chumbersburg Pa.r Opinion tells
some truths about advertising. albeit
1t is trifie sarcastic. when it says:
If you have goods TO sell. advertise
them. Hire a man with lampblack
kettle and brush to paint your name
and number on all the railroad fences.
The cars go whizZing by so fast that
no one can read them. TO be sure. but
perhaps the conductor will be obliging
enough to stop the train for inquisitiye
passengers.
Have your card on the hotel register
by all means. Strangers stopping at
the hotel for the night generally buy
cigar before leaving town and need
some inspiring literary food besides.
If an advertising agent wants to ad-
vertise your business in fancy frame
at the depot. pay him about 200 per
cent more than it is worth and let him
put il there. When a man has three
quarters of a second in which to catch
a train. he invariably stops to read
depot advertisements. and your card
might take his eye.
OF course the street thermometer
dodge is excellent When mans fin
gers are freezing or he is putting.
"phewing" at the heat, is the time
above all others when he reads a ther-
mometer advertisement.
Print in the blackest ink great.
sprawling card on all your wrapping
paper. Ladies' returning home from a
shopping tour like TO be walking bul-
letin. and If the ink rubs off and spOiIs
some of their tinery no matter.
Don't fail to advertise in every circus
programme. 1t will help the circus to
pay its bills. and the visitors can re-
lieve the tedium of the clowns jokes
by looking over your remarks about
40 per cent below cost etc.
A boy with big placard on a pole is
an interesting object on the street and
lends a dignified air to the establish
ment. Hire couple.
Patrunizing every agent who shows
you an advertising tablet and card. d.
rectory. dictionary or even an advers
tising Bible. If one is offered at a rea-
sonable price. shows that you know
where to invest your money.
But don't think of advertising in a
well established. Legitimate newspaper.
Not for moment. Your advertise
ment would be nicely printed and dnd
its way into the thrifty households Of
the region.

This Field OF Endeavor.

Success OF the Belgium Society In
This Field OF Endeavor.
The second international congress of
public art held in Paris last August
draws attention TO tie remarkable
achievements Of the Belgian Municipal
Art society during the last six years.
The National Belgian Society For
the Development Of Art in Irs Ap-
pIication to Street Decorations AMI
to All objects Of Public Usefulness
was founded at Brussels in 1891 This
organization popularity known as the
Municipal Art association. was started
by a number of artists and public
spirited citizens for the purpose of re-
storing TO art its social mission Of
bygone days by putting public anil
private buildings into a condition con-
sistent With tasteful principles.
The scope Of the society is very
broad. While the principal purpose is
the exterior ornamentati0n Of public
adIIces ami dwelling houses in the
aesthetic manner which prevailed in
Flanders and in Italy during the re-
aaissance, every effort is made to en-
courage the application of art to mod
esn practical inventions.
The Belgian people in giving their
support TO the municipal arr crusade.
are fully aware OF the practical hene-
fits to be derived therefrom. A town
made attractive will necessarily appeal
strongly TO the Traveller, who is more
apt to spend his time, and incidentally
his money, there than in n place devoid
of beauty. .
Since its formation the art society
has rapidly increased its membership.
which. in brussels alone. is more than
3.000 The daily press and all classes
of society support the movement.
