Living ny His Rocks.

An amusing story is told Of Robert
Buchanan, the uthor, who like many
another well known literary man, had
q hard struggle at the beginning Of his
career. He had just published one Of
his early novels when one day he
found himself the possessor Of a fine
appetite, but without any money in his
pocket at the moment to get a meal
He thought Of ways and means for
some time and finally hit upon an idea
S He went to the Office Of his publish
ier and asked for three copies of his
new novel, directing that Che cost
should be. placed to his account. Armed
with the fresh, nicely bound volumes.
he Immediately sought out the nearest
secondhand bookseller and disposed Of
the copies for as much as they would
bring.

The Origin OF Johnnycake.


! No doubt many others besides the
writer may have wondered how johnny
cake came to be thus named. When a
child, / settled it for myself BY mag
lining John Smith, whom Pocahontas
saved, had something to do with it.
The cake, being made of Indian meal,
became thus associated in my mind
with the historical name. A writer in
the Housekeeper says: III
In tracing the term we find ourselves
at a time antedating by many years
steam cars and hotels on wheels, in an
age when mankind depended entirely
upon his four footed companions for
transportation and had only saddlebags
in which to carry his luggage. Tav-
ems were few and far apart, and a
lunch was, always acceptable. Corn
meal, forming 50 large a part Of the
dietary in those days, held chief place
in making up the lunch. Wet with wa
ter and a little salt added, it was baked
in a shape that stored ava y in the sad
dlebags nicely and was called journey
cake. This is the origin Of our modern,
unconventional johnny cake.

He loved her deyotedly. He was also
bowlegged. Both facts gave him pain
at times.
He passed it by with rueful smile
when she merrily said that his Attic
ton gave him such an arch look and
that, after all, he was a pretty good
sort when you got on to his curves.
He bore it patiently when she referred
to his walk as parenthetical progress.
But he rebelled and broke the engage

A Curious Royal custom.

When any Spanish sovereign dies, the
body is at once submitted to the proc
ess Of fossilization, nor can it be placed
in the royal pantheon until the body
has been absolutely turned into stone
Curiously enough, the period required
for fossilization varies considerably.
Some royal bodies have become solidi-
fed in a very short period while others
have taken years before the fossiliza-
ton took place. 1t took exactly thir,
teen years to convert the body of the
father Of Alfonso XIII. Of Spain into
stone

Riding Away with the Bride.

In many Of the border counties Of
England the quaint old bridal customs
of hundreds Of years ago are still in
vogue. The parents carefully abstain
from appearing at the marriage cere-

bridegroom still rides away on foam
ing steed with his bride behind him as
in the good old days. The brides pre-
fer the custom to the modern method

cure monopoly of the business in the

Board Of Education After Long Discus
sion Decides 10 Leave Music
Course as it is Now.
GAASTRA TO PLAN NEW BUILDING.
KenOsha Architect Wins an Easy Victory
Over Foreign Competition.-Teach-
ers appointment Confirmed.

The Board of Education met in reg
ular session at the city hall last even
ing and the meeting while short one
was not devoid Of interest. The long
fight that has been made for "a
change of the music books now in use
in the city ended in a disagreement
and the old books which have been
used for number of years will remain
in the desks for another year.
For weeks the members CT the text
books committee had been making an
effort to arrive at some decision in re-
gard to the change and the agents of
| the American Book company, CHM &
Co., and Silver, Burdette & Co., have
taken possession of the city. All of the
representatives were at the meeting of
the board last night and made lengthy
arguments IN favor of the adoption Of
the different books 1t was evident
that some Of the members OF the board
wished to make some change IN the
books but the sentiment was so divid-
ed that any agreement seemed hope
less and it was finally decided in the
way of compromise to leave the old
books in for another year and leave
the fight for the change to the next
| board. The changing of the books
will make quite an expense to the
school patrons and for this reason it
was deemed wise to leave the matter
over at this time.
The matter of selecting an architect
for the new building to be erected to
replace. the Durkee building in the
Second Ward resulted in an easy vic
tory for Kenosha architects and D.
Gaastra will draw the plans and super
intend the new building. Mr.. Gaastra
made proposition to the board offer
ing to do the work on three per cent
basis if he was not forced to enter into
competition with architects from other
cities. The proposition was accepted
and Mr.. Gaastra will begin work on
the plans for the building at once. It
is the intention of the board to have
the building started as early as pos.
sib1e in the spring so as to have it
ready for use at the opening of the
next year. The architect who has
been selected by the board has been
very successful in designing school
houses and during the past year he
has designed splendid buildings for
several Wisconsin cities. The plans
will probably be ready for the con-
tractors by the first of next March.
