MISTAKES OF GREAT PAINTERS:

Accuracy Of Detail Not a Great Point
with Them.
There has been lot of talk of late
about the blunders of novelists. Her.,
are few of the principal mistakes Of
great painters:
The painters of two or three CEN
turtles ago seem to have troubled but
little about strict accuracy of detail
T. many cases their mistakes cannot
be attributed to mere ignorance, and
some writer's have attempted to show
that they regarded pictures in a differ.
ent light from that in which we do.

the violin, and has a red lobster in his
miraculous Draught of Fishes"
A well-known Dutch painter shows

The Susquehanna Iron company's

mud dredge, and is built on the same
principle as an ordinary horsepower
steam engine. It's anchor or spuds are

The dredge of the dipper is armed
with steel teeth about FIFTEEN inchen
long and six inches thick. The man at
the levers drops the great dipper, with
it's great handle, down fifteen feet to
the rock bottom. Then he moves an
other lever and the big engine down in
the hold gets under way. The great
steel cable attached to the dipper
quivers under the strain There is a

Rapidly Assuming Same Enterprise a.
in America.
Japanese journalism is developing
on Western lines, and with surprising
rapidity. The events Of the present
war are responsible for the extras
lean, fashion. The newsmen are bare
legged, with a sort of napkin around
the head and a small bell at the belt,
which rings as they go. When the
war news is lively the extras come out
in a correspondence lively manner,
one after the other, and are literally
patronized. The sensational reporter
has appeared there, as we'll as the fe-
male journalist.
One consequence of this is that
journalism here and there begins to
pay, where formerly it had to be sub
sidized as matter of patriotism and
public spirit. There is an English
column in all the papers, and English
is studied in all the schools. The coun-
try has 600 newspapers in all, and
number Of them have respectively
circulation exceeding 100000 copies.
AS guides and directors of public opin-
ion they are perhaps not inferior to
our own. Altogether, Japanese jour
nalism, though in it's infancy, has a
bright future before it, and will likely
keep pace with the progress of the
country it serves.-Chicago Journal

"The conquest of Mysore and Ma

Tippoo has coded to England one-half

ITO make nations of free men is
the destiny of our race" replied the
earl.
Perhaps so, for it seems the new
colony planted at Sydney Cove, Aus

would mean an English empire in the
SOUTH"

But this is an insult to the Ameri-

Because he will not abandon his

where he should be, saving the lives
of American citizens, many of whom
are trembling to-day in the shadow of
the guillotine."

CHAPTER X.
Life Tied in a Knot,

One morning soon after the New
Year, Hyde was returning to the
Manor House from New York. 1t was
a day to Cypress thought, and tighten
the heart, and kill all hope and energy
There was a monotonous rain and a
sky like that of a past solemn
and leaden-and the mud of tie loads
was unspeakable. He was compelled
to ride slowly and to feel in it's full
force, as it were, the hostility of Ma
ture.
But when he reached home and his
valet had seen to his masters refresh
ment in every possible way, Hyde was
at least reconciled to the idea of liv
ing little longer. At least there was
Annie. Annie was always glad to see
him, and he had a great respect fol
Annie's opinions.
He heard her singing as he ap
preached the drawing room, and he
opened the door noiselessly and went
in. He did not in any way disturb
her. She ceased when the hymn was
finished and sat still few moments
realizing, as far as she could, the
glory which doth not yet appear. Then
he stood up and she came towards
him. Hyde placed her in q chair be-
fore the fire, and then drew his OWL
chair to her side.
Cousin" she said, II am most glad
to see you. Everybody has some work
to do to-day"

improved Chiffonier.

There has just been patented a chit
fonier, or dresser, of decidedly useful
construction, and the honor belongs to
an Indiana citizen. The accompanying
cut shows the chiffonier, with it's new
feature, which is nothing more nor
less than washstand extension.
1t can be seen that the washstand
slides into the end of the chiffonier
and closes the end shelves or compart-
ments when the stand is not in use.
The whole arrangement is particularly

What liqhtninq Is.

1t has generally beer supposed that
the luminous material forming the
electric spark is made up of minute
particles torn from the poles of the
discharge and heated to white heat
by it. But Russian experimental,
Semenoff, reports to the Paris Acad-
envy of Sciences the results of expert
ments which show that the poles SUI
fer no such dismemberment, and that
the heated material comes solely from
the air or gas through which the
spark passes. In lightning flash the
air is simply heated momentarily to
incandescence along the path of the
discharge.

Cleansing Public Reservoirs.

The department. of agriculture is e.
perimenting with process of treating
public water supply with a solution
OF copper sulphates-one part in L.
100000 parts. The purpose of this
Is to destroy certain forms Of agla
Or plant growths, which SO frequently
render water foul appearing and i'll

Of the water is. not affected. These
growths flourish best in the purest
waters, pressed through sand filters,
and for this reason large storage of
filtered water is not advisable unless
the reservoirs are covered. AS to the
effect upon the consumers, person
drinking three pints of water per day,
with part to 100000 parts,
would in year consume but
seven to eight grains of snl-
plate. AS mater of fact, how
ever, the treatment would not be con-
tinuous. Two or three applications
year would probably suffice, and be-
sides this the sulphate would enter
into combination with the organic life
and would then be precipitated. Ger
tain of the algae are killed by solu-
tons of only l part in 100000, but
1t is possible that others will require
much stronger solutions In this case,
which remains to be determined by
test, the reservoir may be shut off
from US during treatment, or there
may be supplementary process to
precipitate any copper sulphate re-
naming in solution.

The above plan provides for six
horse stalls, ten double cattle stalls,
four box stalls and a room for young
cattle to run loose in. The box stalls
have doors in from outside, So that
they may be cleaned from these. The
passage behind the cattle is nine feet
wide, allowing room for a wagon or
cart to be backed in to draw out the

There are two ways to start a rhu-
bard bed: First, by using roots which
may be secured from an established
plantation. If these are used, they
may be planted in spring or any time
from the first of September until the
middle of October l prefer the early
autumn. The second method is from
seeds. If rhubarb seed is sown in we'll
pulverized soil in early spring, the
seedlings will be large enough to trans
plant in the autumn. Or they may be
allowed to stand over until the follow
ing spring. When the roots or seed
lings have been set out in the autumn,
it is altogether advisable to mulch
them heavily the first winter. Rhubarb
does we'll on a variety of soils, but one
which is deep, 1airly heavy and moist
is preferable. If you want early rhu.
barb, select warm site.
