Many stories are told Of Mcdonald

that he had a vein Of great shrewd
ness, such as IL often possessed by
people who are counted insane.
One day he was seated at q table
In a New York hotel quietly eating
his simple dinner when two young
men took their seats at the same table
Mcdonald Clarke was a well-known
figure, and the young men at once
recognized him, though he did not
know them.
They were not gentlemen in the best
sense Of the word. and It occurred
to them that they might have some
sport with the poor poet. Conse-
quently one Of them said in an I'm.
necessarily clear tone:
II have seen almost everything and
everybody in New York except Nc
Donald Clarke. have great ad
vibrations for his poems, and / would
give great deal to see the man"
When he passed the mad poet
leaned forward and said with evident
qualifications:
"Sir. I am Mcdonald Clarke, whom
you say you wish to see."
The young man stared at him with
much rudeness for moment. and
then drawing quarter from his
pocket, he laid it on the poets plate
saying. That's for the sight"
Clarke looked at the coin for an in.
slant, and then placing 1t in his poke ct
he took out York shilling" 1917

relative who lived in town about a
hundred miles distant The young
woman, apparently free from all fam
lily cares, spent an enjoyable evening;
but just as the newly weuued couple
were preparing to depart on the mid
night train. an expression of acute an
xiety flashed across the young moth
er's countenance.
"Oh, George she exclaimed, clutch
ing her husbands arm: There was
one thing that ] forgot to tell your
mother to do for the baby. and he'll
never go to sleep without it. You must
go right out and send her tele-

Nonsense" said George. this isn't
the first baby she's taken care Of"
But George. she'll never think OF
doing just the right thing. and the
baby is so perfectly trained that he
won't accept any substitute. l know
he's crying hard at this very minute"
She was right. A hundred miles
away a weary grandmother was at her
wits end because she could think OF
nothing that would paclfy a waiting
infant who was most wrctchedly sleepy
yet utterly unable to go to sleep. She
was pacing YEARLY back and forth in
the nursery to the accompaniment of
her grandson's bowls when the door
bell rang and her daughter-inlaw's
telegram arrived. Tearing it open the
tired, perplexed grandmother read:

Two minutes later. the baby. adjust

Our Mountain Garden is the title
Of an attractive book by Mrs. Theodore
Thomas. Mrs. Thomas tells all about
Felsengarten.t their summer home in
New Hampshire not far from Bethle-
hem, land how we built it with our
own four hands" Incidentally the
book is a practical guide for those who
want to do the authors kind of gar
dening, which means spending little
money and having little knowledge of
horticulture to go ahead on. and no

kind of gardening which Mrs Thomas
describes is that any one can do 1t any
where; 1t does not depend on Il favor
able climate, on constant care. on a

or even on an abundance Of water.
