Splendid summer Resort Projected by
Independence Lawson. ~.
Thomas w. lawson yachtsman,
copper king, multimillionaire, horse
breeder, dog fancier, and gas agitator,
is going to build miniature Venice
on the rugged coast of Maine. He has
bought two islands off Stonington on
Deer Isle, and has an option on twelve
others, which he will pay for when
the titles are proved to his satisfac-
ton. These islands are situated in
Isle Au Taut bay, and are about IS
miles from the mainland. His plans
contemplate the building Of the most
remarkable summer resort in the Uni
ted States. The islands are all close
together and many of them can be con-
nected with bridges. On Saddle Back,
the largest of the group, about forty
acres in extent, Mr.. Lawson will erect
magnificent palace for himself. The
whole matter will be placed IN the
hands Of landscape artist, who will
furnish plans which will transform the
islands into a Venice of America"
The smaller islands will be cleared Of
everything unsightly, but everything
which shows the rugged beauty of the
group will be left untouched! On some
of the larger islands there will be con-
servatories and vine-covered ! vesti-
bules. Miniature parks will be filled
with deer, bears, gray squirrels part
ridges, and every game animal that
lives in Maine. The whole cost of the
project will be above $1,000, 000.-Bos-

Baby's Weight.

/ The baby of normal weight tips
down at. birth the tiny scales at the
seven-pound mark. 1t he or she is
much heavier or much lighter, he or
she is at war with the average. A pc
culiar feature. Of baby weight is that,
during the first days of it's life, the
youngster-that is, the perfectly nor
NAL youngster-loses one pound. Thus,
examination on the second and fourth
day will show weight of six pounds
only. But, after the first week, at the
end of which time the lost pound
should be regained, there is steady
advance. in the infant avoirdupois.
Ten pounds should have been reached
by the time the baby is eight weeks
old and when it is twenty weeks old
the weight should be fourteen pounds.
At seven months the figures should be
sixteen pounds; and the year-old baby
should have mark of tWenty-one
pounds to its credit. And so the future
citizen or citizeness goes on building
sup, until, at the age of two years it is
able to point with pride to record of
twenty-seven pounds.-New- York Her
