Looks Like the Great George.
From the Boston Glohe.


Lawrence Washington. great
great-grandnephew of George Wash
ington, father of his country, has Just
been assigned by the library of Con
gress to take charge of the special ex
hibit made by the institution at st.
Louis.
Mr.. Washington is the closest male
relative now surviving of the first
President, fact of which he is I'M
doubtedly proud, but he greatly dis
likes the notoriety that his presence
provokes wherever he goes.
1t transpires too, that Mr.. Washing
ton is almost a fac-simile of his Illus
trious granduncle, and has nearly his
Identical build. His cheek bones are
high and the arch of his brow gives
him a keen piercing look.
Such a wonderful likeness to the
first President does not exist elsewhere
in the flesh. The story is told of a GER
tain novelist who used to go to the
library regularly and sit quietly in the
corner watching his features. The
sharp glance of his eve and the dignity
expressed in his aquiline features are
so distinctly Washingtonian that
everybody who sees him is struck by
the figure.
Such is the man whom the library of
Congress has appointed to take charge
of a special department at st. Louis in
which collections of Washington books
and autographs are made and he will
probably remain there during the
greater part of the fair.
What an honor to have the shadow
of such greatness resting upon one.
But like all honors in this curious
world it is not without it's grievous an
noyances to one who is not in the show
business.

A "Human Alarm Clock.
From the Indianapolis News.


In the cast of characters that play
the drama of life in indianapolis every
day there is one whose appearance on
the stage is demanded in certain quar-
ters of the city at a certain time every
day. Unless he appears there are hun
dreds of Indianapolis people who have
to make excuses for being late at the
store, shop or office. That character
is Tom" Horton, the peddler, known
as The American Dago,," but more
recently styled The Human Alarm
Clock" His voice and his puctuality
are Horizons best known features.
Every weekday morning, promptly at
$50 o'clock, Horton leaves his West
Court street home to make his tour
of the city He goes east to Senate
avenue, thence north to Vermont
street. He pushes his cart at such a
regular speed that time might be meas
ured by it. That fact is responsible
for his new title of 1.-The Human Alarm
Clock" AS he goes ambling along
behind his cart his thunderous voice
can be heard for two blocks distant.
That voice serves to awaken hundreds
of sleepers in the district he visits
every morning between $50 and

Counterfeit Money in Collection
Plate.
From the Philadelphia Record.

From the Philadelphia Record,
Not nearly so much counterfeit
money finds it's way into the collection
plate as formerly" said a vestryman
of one of Philadelphia fashionable
churches. 1T used to be that when
people We're stuck with bad money
mutilated coins, Canadian dimes and
cOunterfeits that couldn't be passed
they would keep it until Sunday and
drop it into the plate in church. You
would be surprised to know the ex
tent of this mean custom. Gradually,
however, the influx is decreasing, and
we now rarely find any bad coins when
the collections are counted. How do
1 account for this? Well, I think the
slot machines now get what used to
go to the churches There are now so
many different slot machines. such as
telephones lunch contrivances, scales,
receptacles for chewing gum and cam

The results OF the season Of 1908,

made it still more evident that it is a

here is already practically little to be

1t is important also for the farmer
note that the name "durum" is like.

instead of the term "macaroni" in flu.

with the term. The word durum is

of wheats, and, besides, it . is now
found that the name macaroni is mis-

from the results of many trials, to be
excellent for making bread, as well as
macaroni. On the other hand. other
Kinds Of wheat. as well as the durums,

although the durums certainly make
