love Of nature he spared neither money
nor energy in mastering the subject.
He found all there was to be learned in
the colleges, then he tracked out into
the wilderness of the west. He travelled
abroad. He came in contact with men
who have devoted their lives to expert
ments with systems for preserving
forests, and restoring forests in old coun-
tries where the forests are regarded as
a precious possession. Then he came
back home, and obtained place in the
agricultural department which for any
body else would have been merely
clerkship. That was not so very long
ago. and Pinchat is still young man
hardly more than a boy in appearance
but he has interested high executive
officers in his plans until now he is at
the head of a bureau which will play a
very important part in the development
OF the country's resources.

becoming to the majority. Let us be
careful to avoid these terrible patterns
and zig-zag stripes which destroy all
symmetry of feature.
Out of door gowns are, of course, the
popular ones at this season, and am
showing some of the most attractive
models in the illustrations.
Smart simplicity is the keynote Of
the very stylish yachting costume The
material is blue and white striped
flannel and the numerous sections Of
the skirt are held together with fancy
stitches in new and effective style, and
these are discontinued some inches from
the bottom, so that the fan-shaped pleats
may have full play over the feet This
novel shirt is cleverly constructed to
get a maximum of smartness, and yet to
preserve the simple outlines which are
obviously necessary to any gown that is
intended for yachting and seaside wear,
when breezy sou'westers are more or
less the order of the day, and this poin
will no doubt be appreciated by any
keen sailor. The double breasted vest

advise you to avoid such models as these,
as there are many beautiful ones which
enhance ones good looks without artis-
tic aid.
To wear with country frocks there is
q jaunty little Marquise hat or some
thing similar, which is delightful In

knife-kited ribbon. Then there are all

A True Patron o. Art. duceQ In congress
for the establishment of a national gal
lery and it will have the hearty indorse-
ment of President Roosevelt. Behind the
project will be the trustees of the Cor
coran art gallery in Washington, who
have united with other patrons and low
ers of art in Washington, New York,
Boston and Chicago, under the stimulus
afforded by Mr.. Morgan's proposition.
Congress will not be asked to make
large appropriation. 1t will be expect
ed simply to lend the government sane
ton to an enterprise which will be sup
ported chiefly from private contribu-
lions. A New York member of congress
will introduce the bill, and will be pre-
pared to back it up with an offer of
100000 as part of the endowment for
the gallery.
A relative of this same congressman
will give a valuable art collection and
large sum Of money for the purchase
of examples of Filipino, Mexican, Gu
ban and Porto Rican landscapes.
But the great glory of the gallery will
be the collection of Mr.. Morgan. The
multimillionaire, now grown old, will
give all his pictures and other works
of art, with no other stipulation than
that the gallery shall be situated in
Washington. The collection has been
appraised at s6,Oo0,OOo and it is declared
to be worth much more even than that
Besides he will furnish enough money
to build wing, to be known as "The
Morgan Gift"
Should congress sanction the gift the
result will be in short time the
greatest gallery of art in the world,
and Washington will become one of the
great art centers of the world. Archi-
tecturally, too, the gallery will be a
classic worthy to rank with the famous
specimens of architecture to be found
anywhere.

like that of the present toy typewriter,
except that it was far heavier and more
cumbersome and did very crude work.
The machine WAS not on the market
then. but the young editor thought he
saw possibilities in it and began to prac-
tice on it. He soon got so that he wrote
all his editorials with the new device
which turned out copy good enough
for the printers to read-although hard
ly neat enough for business correspond
ence.
1t was not till two years later-in 1874
that the inventor had perfected his
machine SO far that he dared to put it
on the market as business PROPOSE
ton, and even then it was greeted with
skepticism and even with ridicule
Prior to that it had been regarded more
as toy than as thing with Industrial
possibilities, and North believes he was
the first to demonstrate it's economical
value even to limited extent.
There is now comparatively little
clerical work done in the government
service without the assistance of the
typewriter.

Henry Fay Green is the name of the
new commissioner, and although he halls
from Duluth he has lived in almost
every section of the United States in a
comparatively short life. He was born
in North Carolina, moved to Chicago
with his father, who was an Episcopal
clergyman, went to school in Maryland
and graduated at Princeton. Then he
studied law in Baltimore and settled
down in Duluth. j. Adam Bede picked
him out as the right sort of chap to
be civil service commissioner, got the
Minnesota delegation to indorse him,
and found the president anxious to ap-
point him after he had looked him over.
Commissioner Green is little over 40
years old.

trying, and on the whole l should
say that TIE best models are not
universally becoming. To begin with,
they are extraordinarily fiat and wide,
Though in the early part of the season
they were high and narrow and think
they are rather apt to dwarf the head and
shoulders when worn in company with
the sloping pelerine.
Most of the toques and the ordinary
practical models are of the wide, flat,
improved sailor shape, simply trimmed
with a wreath Of flowers. They have, of
course, all the chic of elegant simplicity,
and suit a piquant French face, but the
real artist will find, when viewing them
from the side and back, that the lines are
not quite right.
The picture hat is mostly of the shep-
herdess type, and this is very becoming

to attractive, round babyish faces, but
absolutely at variance with hard and
strongly marked features. There is
very little variety in this class of best"
headgear, unless we turn to the Grains
borough and Romney shapes at colossal
prices
There is always certain amount of
danger when pale colors are worn on
the head, such as green, mauve, etc. They
may be beautiful in themselves, but
they are trying even to pretty faces and
good compilations. So, taking it all
round, darker brims should be universal
ly de rigueur.

lected and turned loose on the unfor-
tunate insect with practical certainty
of causing it's determination.
DR.. Stiles is the one who startled the
world few months ago with the an
nouncement that he had discovered the
germ of laziness-the worm Whose raw
ages in the southern states had wrought
havoc in the social and industrial sit
uation.
There seems to be no doubt about the
genuineness of both discoveries, and if
DR.. Stiles has really found remedy
for both incidence and mosquitoes he
will have high place in the worlds
records, although the mosquito itself
has hitherto been regarded as one of
the most effective enemies of laziness
to be found.
The name of the mosquito destroyer
is really the "Agamomermis Culicis,"
but it will doubtless be called some
thing else for short. 1t is an internal
parasite and when once deposited in
the abdominal cavity of mosquito it
causes speedy death. An insect infect
ed becomes sluggish in it's movements
and females cease to breed.
DR.. Stiles and the other government
scientists will now devote themselves to
propagating the mosquito destroyer in
sufficient quantities for general use.

the grasshopper plague. The depart

lures of this parasite to places west and
