THE LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT
He Tells Where and How Your House
Should BE Built.

He Tells Where and How Your House
should be Built.
Ten years ago the majority Of pro-
spective country householders would
have scoffed at the idea that expert as
sistance was necessary to decide just
where to place ones house, and msNy
architects would have considered such
assistance almost an insult to their own
skill. The new profession has become
so important now, however, that many
American schools and universities have
established courses for the training Of
landscape architects.
Aside from his care for the aesthetic
beauty of the environment the land
scape architect enters the domain of the
structural architect so far as to declare
where such and such rooms should be
situated. Every room has windows
and every window has view, so while
the landscape architects mission is not
to determine the size and shape Of the
rooms he may decide what shall be the
outlook of each and what is to enter 1t
in the way Of air and sunshine. He
plans the dining room. for example, so
that 1t shall get the morning sun and
the drawing room or other afternoon
apartment SO that 1t shall have the
sunshine in the later hours Of the day.
In short, It IL his task to see that the
house gets the greatest benefit out OF
all the forms Of nature in its surround
ings. *

THE MAN AND NOT THE LAW.


Well venture to assert that there is
not township in the state of Iowa that
has better roads than Cedar township
in Mahaska county. Iowa. Papers over
the state have been complaining that
the new road law was failure. bat
it's not the law but the men who have
the work to let or the work to do who
are at fault The trustees of this town
ship are all level headed men who. in
the past, have studied theart of max
ing good roads and have definite idea
how the work should be done. Last
spring when superintendent was APP
pointed they selected man whom they
they knew would do work as directed
and man who also had good ideas
about making roads. The consequence
of this was that the road work was done
when the roads needed it and at a
time when the work would be lasting.
A great deal of drain tile was used in
low and seepy places and Wen guess
that next spring there will be fewer
mud holes than ever before. L. b. KEEL
Ter is the road superintendent and the
board pays him So a day. every cent
of which he earns. The condition Of
the roads prove that the trustees made
a wise selection

Boiled Down Democracy.


Our glorious party gathering in
Brands Park last Saturday has been
aptly characterized as boiled down
democratic thought" At this season of
the year we boil everything in Cook
county, from water to democratic
thought. which is reasonably regard
ed the other extreme. The residum of
boiled down thought is bunch that 1t
is up to us to nominate Carter Harrl-
son as our national standard bearer In
1903, provided always that our beloved
Bryan declines to lead us TO systematic
and never-failing defeat. We are a
little careless as to the nomination next
year STIMULATING only that 1t shall not
be given to the traitor Cleveland. whose
infamous luck it might be to slip into
the presidential chair when all ex-
pectation of victory Is abandoned. If we
can kill off Missourian or North Car
Gilman by getting him to run In 1904,
we shall be in good trim to nominate
Carter four years later, on any platform
which will have a two thirds vote, for
that is about as unanimous as we can
ever hope to be. If we find difficulty in
securing candidate next year, we can
always fall back on Bryan and the
Kansas City platform.

A Snake in a Street Car

NV. s. Dunbar in August Outing.l
But the snakes with whom | have
generally associated have mostly been
the little chaps. such as the lively two
foot garter snake that l had in a
Kansas City street car one day. I had
picked him up in the suburbs of the
city, and before taking the car back to
the business section of the town l but
toned him in the inside pocket of my
coat. Now, anybody who has ridden
over the streets of Kansas City knows
that in places 1t seems as tho the cars
were climbing up the roof of a barn.
When got on the ear 1t was full, and
so had to grab a strap in order to
stand up. Presently a seat became
vacant beside me, and / sat down. AS
l did SO l glanced up, and there was
my poor little snake hanging to the
strap l had just left. Various other
people noticed him at the same time.
and the ensuing exhibition would have
enabled any person In the car to So
cure job as a circus acrobat at a
handsome salary. After they had es-
capped I put the snake back in my
pocket. The conductor was hero,
and stuck to his post, but he put me
off the car and kept my nickel.
