CHRONICLE OF A HEDGE.

Jones Couldn't Bear to See the Ugly
Shrubs in Browns Yard.
The withered and rusted remains Of
a once flourishing lockwood hedge lie
amid the promiscuous dumpings of a
suburban garbage pile.
When Lawyer Brown bought himself
small estate on Buena Vista avenue
the hedge came with it. He recognized
it's utility as a screen from the curious
eyes of his neighbors. But the utility
and pleasant landscape effects do not
always go hand in hand.
Brown had for his partner Jones,
also a resident of the suburb. Jones
placed lockwood hedges in the same
class with hand-knit ties. He joked
gument and finally resorted to bias
phemy. He threatened to make Brown
show cause why the hedge should re-
main.
Recently Jones returned from his
vacation. At the station the first night
Brown asked him to walk around his
way to see an Improvement on the ave-
nue.. Jones, full Of civic spirit, had
accepted the Office of president Of the
Village Improvement Society. He lit
orally mauled Brown in his delight
when he saw that the hedge had been
removed and hydrangea bushes substi-
tuted. Then he started for his own
home, buoyant with the pride of con-
quest over the phlegmatic Brown.
Jones is a Junior partner. He leases
a house and pays rent to a nice old
lady who attends auctions and buys
fanciful but useless articles because
they are cheap. She had happened to
be passing when the uprooting of the
hedge occurred. To her it was a lovely
product Of nature and she bought it.
The hedge was transplanted and took
deep roots during Jones absence, says
the New York Mail and Express. It
in his miniature front yard. He saw
it as he might have seen the ghost of
some accused enemy rising out of the
sea into which he had pushed him. The
sun Of three weeks beating down ON a
sandy complexion had not Redeemed his
face so much as did the explosion that
followed his first view He kicked the
hedge, hacked it and tore his hands,
likewise his clothes, trying to uproot
what his landlady had planted there to
beautify his estate.
The next day the garbage man came. |

batteries stored in a casing which an
swers as a seat for the person controll-
ing the motor and steering the boat.
The motor casing is cut away in the
picture to show the method of mount
ing the propeller shaft and connecting
the motor. OF course, this boat is not
intended to compete with the high
speed and higher-priced craft which
the modern boat-builder is now able to
produce, but it will afford no small
amount of pleasure to its owner ON a
leisureay cruise or fishing trip about
the rivers and lakes of the country.
To place the mechanism in position on
a boat it is only necessary to store
away the batteries and gasoline reser-
voir beneath the seat and suspend the
motor casing over The stern by the
hooks and clamps provided for the pur-
pose. The inventor is Irwin r. Miller,
of st. Paul, Mimi.

THOMAS MAST, THE FATHER
OF AMERICAN CARlCATURE.

Yellow fever claimed Thomas Mast,
the famous cartoonist, who died at
Guayaquil, in Ecuador, whittier he had
gone as United States consul last sum-
mer. Before going he made a prophetic
cartoon in which he pictured himself
as being greeted upon his arrival In
South America by yellow Jack" with
a volcano in eruption, alligators and
boa constructor as accompaniment. He
was Ill but three days when death
claimed him Sunday.
Mast was the father of American
caricature. He was born in Landau,
Germany, in 1910, and was years old
when his parents brought him to this
country At IA he began drawing for
illustrated papers. He was with Carl
baIdi in his Italian campaign and dur
ing our Civil War was at the front,
making pictures which brought him
prominently before the public. Later
he made himself famous and contrib
uted to Tweeds downfall by his ceie-
brated cartons. 1t was often said that
Nast's pictures were the only things
which Tweed feared. Once the old
politician cried:

don't care what they write about me,

PROPELLER FOR SMALL BOATS.

It is but natural that the owner of a
rowboat should at times desire a mo-
tor launch, especially when on a long
distance pull on a warm day; and yet
the expense Of new boat, with engine
and machinery, places it beyond the
reach Of the majority Of rowboat own
ers. In our Illustration we show ali
apparatus which may answer the pur
pose fully as well as a new boat, and
at far less cost. 1t is nothing less than
a gasoline motor, so arranged that it
can be secured to the rear end of a

The work on the New York subway
was lately brought to a standstill at
one point by dolls five-cent hat All
was ready for an extensive blast. Peo-
pie in the vicinity were fleeing at the
sight of an Italian waving a piece of
red cloth fastened to a stick. The
workman in the trench waited for the
signal to send off the blast. But the
signal did not come. Something had
happened. A three-year-old girl was
being dragged to place Of safety by
two poorly dressed women, when the
green-feathered hat of her pitiful doll
fell into the street. The Italian drop
ped his flag as he heard the child
scream with grief and saw the catas-
trophe. He seized the hat, rushed
across the street, gave it to the mother.
and in moment the flag waved and
the arrested work went on.

THE FASHIONABLE FIGURE.
Woman's Form Now to Produce Slab
like Effects.

It seems that Woman's form, which
fully, to the wishes of fashion, is again
to undergo a change. The fashionable
figure of the present season is quite
different from it's immediate predeces-
sor. 1t is q bit doubtful If the new
figure will inspire sculptors, poets,
painters; but of course that is a minor
consideration. Fashion and art cannot
always be expected to go hand in hand.
Some experts don't hesitate to shrug
their shoulders skeptically and pro-
nounce the new figure stiff. Others,
who to some extent share their opin-
ion, hasten to add that stiff or not ev-
cry woman who would be thought
fashionable will be cultivating it in
less than three months, basing their
prediction, of course, on what woman
has always done in the past.
Coming, as it does, at the time when
problem of how to bring her waist line
far down in front, the change Of figure
is all the more interesting for the rea-
son that apparently it leaves the waist
line to take care of itself. Apparently,
at least, there is no attempt at tight
lacing.
Fashions incentive to model and re-
model the feminine figure into many
and Numerically opposed shapes is
the keen desire for something new,
something different, implanted in ey-
cry breast, and her chief aid in the
work, as everybody knows, is and al
ways has been the corset.
At first this aid, called a girdle, was

Cynics have declared that tomb
stones are the greatest liars in the
world. This is only another way of
saying that the ancient maxim Tell
nothing save good of the dead is re-
spected everywhere. Humanity agrees
that anger, malice and hatred should
stop at the grave. Hence the grave
stone recites only the virtues Of him
who sleeps beneath it and says moth
ing Of his failings and weaknesses. 1t
must be admitted, however, that in
some cases charity is heavily drawn
upon in the effort to find virtues to
ascribe to the deceased, and it is this
consideration, undoubtedly, which has
influenced the clergymen Of Hamilton,
Ohio, to declare by a unanimous vote
that they will no longer preach funeral
sermons save in cases where they can
conscientiousIy ascribe to the dead
merits Warranting eulogy. They de-
cline any longer to compete with the
tombstones in indiscriminate praise of
people simply because those people are
dead. There is something to be said
for this attitude of the clergymen. A
philosopher once put the case thus: A
dead rascal is no more admirable than
a live rascal save that he is incapable
Of further rascal1ty. Why, therefore,
should he be euIogized? This state
ment Of the proposition appears logical
and it no doubt appeals with particular
force to clergymen, who, from their
very profession, may be supposed to
deprecate any departure from the truth
even in Difference to the tradition de
mortuis nil nisi bonum." Whatever
license in elegaic matters may be per-
mitted to tombstones or even to men
not in holy orders, it must be conceded
that silence is after all the highest
charity which may reasonably be ex-
pected Of a preacher. The cleries of
Hamilton, Ohio, have done wisely and
seemingly in resolving to leave POST
norton eulogies Of doubtful veracity
to the tombstones. Heaven lies about
us in our infancy, but the clergyman
cannot afford to lie about US when we
are dead. The stored urn must do

1t is odd how we overlook the chill
dren at times. New York has just
opened a babies hospital. 1t is the
first hospital in the world for the ex-
elusive treatment of infants. The need
of it has existed for years. Of course
most mothers believe that the place for

isn't true in great many homes in
cities. Thousands of people are crowd
ed into quarters where disease is in
vited by conditions and babies do not
stand much of chance Hospital
treatment would postpone many funer-
ais that are caused as much by impure
air, lack of proper treatment and
ccowding, as by disease. In New York
for every 100 filled collins twenty-siX
contain babies under one year old, and
Sc per cent of the deaths occur among
children under two years old. There
are 10000 beds in the New York hospi-
tails, and only twenty-one of them

One of the things in this changing
world that ought to be preserved invio-
late against the touch of innovation is
apple pie. Properly constructed, with
an Ingenious regard for hygiene and
for pleasing taste, an apple pie is the
very apotheosis Of cookery, and no to-
ken of modern degeneracy is more
mournfully apparent than the great
scarcity of the sort of intelligence and
discrimination necessary to the pro-
duction Of apple pie, pure and unde-
filed, and Invested of all adjuncts and
appurtenances which vitiate the palate
and impair the digestion.
