PRIVATE STEVENSON.

DRIVATE Leonard b. Stevenson. hos
pitaI corps. L. s. A. ought 10 have
the highest honors the government can
pay any man. Surgeon General For
wood has given out the story of Stew
enson's heroism in the plain language
of the official report, and even in that
dry verbiage il thrills one to know
that a plain private. unknown before,
whose very identity is buried except
that he is an American. can rise to the
heights OF self-sacrifce demanded by
his duty.
Stevenson. the report says. was
detailed to nurse both of our COM
rades. with the knowledge that his
predecessor had been cut down while
performing the same duty. without q
murmur, he responded, and remained
until the sod covered his plague
stricken charges. and then he re-
turned TO HIS routine duties. The men
of this command, who have faced
death amid the whirl of bullets and
the excitement of a fight. can readily
appreciate the courage required to
daily await its approach in the form
of one of the most dreaded diseases
known to the world today. and the
commanding officer makes this an op-
portunity to publicly acknowledge that
duty well done the highest aim of
a soldier. is a goal that Private Steven
son has reached"
1t Is a story of magnificent courage,
and 1t makes one proud of the Ameri-
can citizenship that can produce such
a man.

Gutta Percha From Peat.
philadelphia Times.)

philadelphia Times.)
One of the latest wrongs of Ireland is
the attempt of a scientific person TO
transform her peat boys into gutta
percha. He says he can make an artificial
gutta percha from peat which viii make
a. good an insulator as the real thing. II
he can there is money in the boys of Ire
land So far gutta percha is the only
substance which has been found TO fur
nish ii perfect protection for wires from
the action of salt water. The supply OF
gutta percha is not only limited, but is
practically controlled by a few manufac-
turers who own the forests in the East
Indies. where the material is obta<ged.
The price of gutta percha has been in
creasing gradually for years. owing TO
the growing demand for it. and the sup
ply is diminishing; if the scientist is
successful in his atatempt to produce ii
from peat he will add greatly to the
worlds economy In Ireland there are
over 3.eo.Oo9 acres of bog land and in
Scotland there are 10000 acres so he
will have enough material upon which to
begin work.

REMARKABLE PICTURE.
First Capitol of vhe Republic Done in

First Capitol Of vhe Republic Done in
Material of the Wreck.
Mrs. Marie Bennett urwitz OF this city
has come into possession of a rather re-
markable picture, remarkable both for its
significance and its handiwork. 1t is
view OF the FIRST capitol of the Republic
near Columbia, the historical old building
in which the first congress sat, and which
had been sadly neglected and was wrecked
by the storm OF 1900.
Mrs, ]. d. Taylor of Columbia collected
considerable amount Of material from
the debris aud out Of this she has actually
built on canvas a llfeikc reproduction Of
the building. The house itself Is made Of
small pieces of shingle put on IN precise
imitation Of Notwithstanding The trees
IN the foreground are made of real twlgs
from the trees around the old building and
realistic roadway running along the front
Is made of puverlzed plaster which fell
from the walls. II is most artistic niece
OF patchwork which at the distance of a
few feet has the appearance OF realistic
painting.
Mrs. Taylor presented the picture to
Colonel John J. Adriance who In turn pre-
sontcd II TO Mrs Urwitz II was received
only q few days ago and has been kindly
loaned by Mrs. Urw.tz to MIR. Ed Kiam for
exhibition IN his show windows
