The automobile lawn-mower was
sure to come. No sooner was 1t proph-
esied than an inventor made one, and
1t can be seen In operation on the Cap

suburbanite, Of whom the comic pa

few turns about his lawn every morn
ing, and then head the mower toward
the railroad station to take his train
for town. On his return In the after
noon he may finish the job OF moving
the lawn, while he keeps the grass
along the roadside cut and rolled by
his daily trips. Then on Sundays he
may give his baby ride up and down
the road In Its horseless carriage, that

The young gentleman who has ac-
CURED some publicity by numbering
his stepmother and uncle explains that
he was driven to the deed because a
school-teacher once boxed his ears
with spelling book. If the pedagogue
had gone to the length of giving him
a regular thrashing with a hickory
switch 1t Is to be inferred that the
youths sense of his wrongs would
have led him to wipe out the whole
community. 1t is these acutely sensi-
tive souls who keep humanity awake
to Its responsibilities.
