BoYHooD OF A POET.
William Cullen Bryant Showed
Genius in Early Life.

v
Genius in Early Life.
The son of a village doctor of Cum
1l1ington, Mass, he wrote verses when
nine years of age- and was regarded as so
:nrecocious that none was surprised when
in after years he became one of the
greatest of American poets. The boys
name was William Cullen Bryant. He
was born Nov. 8, 1894.
When he was only fourteen years old
he published a poem called THE En-
bargo," and another, 1.-THE Spanish Rev
olution,' which We're so good that few
people believed mere boy could have
written them. The young poet entered
Williams college when sixteen years old,
but remained there only two years. After
leaving college he studied law and was
admitted to the bar when twentyone
years old.
In September, 1917 Bryant published
his famous poem, "Thanatopss. Had
he written nothing else, this would have
made his name immortal, for it is one
of the most beautiful poems in any Ian
guage Young Bryant now deterined to
be a writer instead of a lawyer, and, in
1921, published a volume of poems. In 1926
he went to New York to live and edited
different magazines, in which some Of
his best efforts were published. He is
best known as poet and through his
connection with the New York Evening
Post, with which he was long identified.
He travelled extensively in both America
and Europe and the friendship of most
of the great writer's of his time helped
to round out quiet life. Acting on the
advice Of Lowell and Longfellow, he
translated ''Iliad' of Homer a transla-
ton which surpasses all similar attempts.
So successful was this translation that
he made one Of EoIner's odyssey"
Rryant's poems are characterized by an
exalted love of nature, and his prose is
marked by clearness and purity of die
ton. He died June II, 1878, in his eighty
fourth year.

JIMMY AND THE MOOSE.
Enjoys Ride and Conversation With
Big Animal


Often as he studied in the hall Jimmy
had gazed with curious eyes at the great
moose head above the open fireplace.
For once it seemed to be taking an in.
terest in him. for as he stared at the
outlines of head and horns it appeared to
be nodding encouragingly
queer murmured Jimmy. 1T never
did that before. / wonder if it is going
to, tumble DOWN.
Before Jimmy could speculate further.
it had tumbled down, and with it came a
huge body that Jimmy could in no Way
account for.
This is comfort the moose excaim-
ed in deep bass voice. II can't re-.
member when I've had a chance to
stretch my limbs. Posing on a wall is
no sort of business for a self-respecti ing
moose. That last run in the forest seems
to have added my brain, for I haven't
an idea Of what happened after that hun
ter fired his gun.
Il have long considered the possibility
of getting away from lnis place, and L
couldn't stand it BIZ longer. These
lovely moonlight nights / know that the
moose are rowing over the pine covered
hills of the North, and somewhere my
mate is calling for me in beautiful tones.
/ must go home again. You seem to be
a boy of spirit I've often heard you
talking with your brother about Indians
and bears and moose. Come with me, and
you will have chance to see the forest"
Jimmy knew that he ought not to ac-
cept the invitation of the huge animal,
but he Quoted his conscience with the
promise that he would not stay away
from home long.
Eyes, sir. Please sir, Jimmy said. 81
should be glad to go with you, but mother
likes me to be home early.
Never mind that" counseled the
moose. Just jump upon my back
When he was settled the moose started
for the hall door. With one blow from his
mighty hoofs the door few open. ind
he Scudded across the gal den az wlirl-
wind speed. Jimmy hoped that some of
the boys might be about and gee him
taking this curious ride, but he was dis.
appointed. The street was deserted. The
moose made for the country, and soon
they were in the shelter of a huge wood.
After what seemed very long run they
reached a strange, wild country where
the thick, solitary woods arose on every
side, broken now and then by lake, a
noisy stream or a narrow clearing where

dissatisfied woman. You don't mean to
say you didn't have enough? Why, the
girl at the counter told me that she
never sold more than two yards of that
KIND Of goods for a waist even for a
stout woman
The dressmaker's signs resolved them
selves into a series of constantly increas-
ing intensity.
"Oh, these saleswomen,' she lamented
They'll be. the death of me yet Why
Will they prejudice themselves day after
Gay for the sake of paltry sale or two?
There was a time when [ was charitable
enough to attribute their misrepresenta-
tons to faulty judgment, but 1 am no
longer so generous. / am convinced that
they lie point blank. They deliberately
persuade; customers that they can get
along with quarter or a half yard, or.
IN cases of dress pattern of silk, even
two or three yards less than is really
needed, and then when it comes to cut
ting the garment I either have to worry
and stew till I'm gray-headed trying to
figure out how l am ever going to make
the goods stretch to cover the ground or
else spend a whole day running around
down town matching samples and buy
ing more.
The dissatisfied woman did not seem
altogether clear on the subject But 1
don't see their object in insisting on a
short SALE she argued. Il should think
it would be to their advantage to over
sell"
mot at ALL returned the dressmaker
You are not up to the tricks of the
trade. The point is, the majority of
shoppers buy economically They want
just as much material as is absolutely
needed and no more, and they know to
penny how much they are able and will
ing to pay for it. If a woman has al
lowed herself 81 to buy the material for
a wash waist and takes a fancy to a.
piece that costs 81 a yard, she will buy
that if assured that two yards will make
a waist, but if informed that two yards
and half would be required she would
make her purchase elsewhere. This rule
holds good with all expensive and high
grade materials The assurance that a
small quantity will suffice will insure a
sale whereas the mere mention of the
number of yards really required is apt
to brighten people away. Then, too, there
is the sale of the extra length to be
considered. Often in buying the addi-
tlonal piece it is necessary to get more
than one would have needed in the first
place for the reason that goods bought
on the installment plan do not cut to
nearly so good advantage as when bought
i'll a single piece. Yes; indeed, the girls
know what they are about when they
sell short measure, but their antics GER
talnly are hard on a dressmaker.'

Charming Dinner Toilette.

One of Mrs. Burton Harrisons dinner
f1ocks is of white taffeta, with delicate
sprays Of threadlike black tendrils. each
terminating in a tiny bell-like flower,
scattered over it. In front there are six
inward-turning tucks, three from each
side, and running up from the applied
graduated f1ounce that describes a point
in front are three more of these tucks
that form a heading to the founce. All
these tucks are half inch deep. At the
upper part of the fiounce a band of point
d'Alencon lace is inserted The bodice
fits closely in the back and blouses bit
in front. Near the top, but not forming
yoke, are crosswise insertions of point
d Alencon, and also lengthwise inser-
tons that extend to the stitched strap
of silk that forms the narrow belt The
back is the so-called French back, and
the two pieces are Joined in the center by
white feather stitching. There is much
of the point lace in front and the stock
is of the point lace, all over chiffon. A
touch of colod is added by dash here
and there of palest blue panne velvet.
The sleeves have their upper portions laid
in tucks, so stitched as to describe mar
row box plaits, and are simply finished
just below the elbow by a hem. The I'M
der sleeves, from the elbow down, are of
point d'Alencon over white chiffon, and
are close fitting and extend a little over
the hands. The bonnet worn with it is of
light blue panne velvet, and the most
delicate of gold lace.

Cut slices of stale cake into circles
with biscuit cutter and moisten them
with little hot water. Chop fresh or
canned pineapple into small pieces and
into the form of cone with a knife.
Place them in shallow tin close to-

apple juice into a saucepan and thicken

Cook until the arrowroot becomes clear
and begins to stiffen, then pour it slow

which should be trimmed carefully when
cold so that the base will be round.
