In order to reform our present stereo-
typed methods of art we want sec
ond renaissance. For long years we
have done nothing but turn out from
our colleges young men stuffed with
useless scientific lumber, and they very
quickly lose It all, and there Is nothing
to take its place. This Is not to be won
dered at when throughout Europe
there Is such a neglect of art In our ed
ucatiOn 1t may be replied to me that
the inventions Of science compensate
for the deficiency, but these inventions
are almost exclusively II not quite a
mere increase in the power OF the bod
lily senses and faculties-the telegraph
In that OF the tongue, the telephone In
that OF the ear, the railway in that OF
the legs, the Photographic science in
that Of the eye-and these inventions
leave in ignorance the more intellectual
part Of the individual Your portrait
can be taken, your voice boxed up-this
Is extraordinary the soul which
commands, the god which is in the
head, Is forgotten.
And yet the means for altering this
state Of things Is near at hand, is be-
meath our eyes. We have still the same
nature that inspired those anonymous
sculptors to give Us the Gothic: we still
have a sufficient number OF Gothic
masterpieces tntact-so many epitOmes

what can be done by the man who

BOTTLE SHAKERS.

eFs In France.
The bottle shakers Of France form a
somewhat unique set of expert wage
earners.
All the larger firms of champagne
makers at Reims use only the juice
from the first pressing of the grape for
champagne
The juice Is taken in barrels to the
cellars and poured into large watts, The
wine remains In these watts from De-
tober until January, when the mixing
takes place. This mixture Is called
the cuvee, and II stands again until
April or June when the great opera
ton of filling the bottles takes place.
First, the bottles are thoroughly test
ell and well cleaned. Then the long
pipes are extended to the bottles from
the mighty watts that hold the cuyee.
and as the bottles are filled. corked and
wired they are lowered in baskets to
the caves below, where they are stack
ed
These bottles are now left from one
to two years, when they are put In
small racks, necks downward. and for
two or three months each bottle Is
given daily gentle little shake by an
experienced workman. In this way the
sediment Is brought gradually to the
cork and the wine becomes perfectly
clear
One man can shake about $4,000 bot,

the shakers depends in large measure

An Old Ball game.
figure {

In the days before baseball be-
came so popular-in fact, when that
game was almost unknown-boys used
to play "one hole cat" game from
which some say baseball was origin
ally derived
There was an old Scottish game of
much the same name as the popular
game of the fifties, but which is con-
sderably different in the way 1t is
played. The game is called cat in the
hole" and. old as it is. it is capable of
affording some good sport yet.
In playing the game six shallow
holes are dug. rather nearer together
than the bases in baseball. and ar
ranged so as to form a diamond In
the center stands a boy with ball in
his hand. At each hole is boy with a
stick, one end of which he rests in
the hole he is guarding. When the
boy with the ball sings out "Cat in
the hole" all the other boys change
holes. AS they do so the boy with
the ball tries to throw it into one of
the holes before any boy gets his stick
into 1t. If he succeeds, the boy who
is slow in changing, and finds the
ball in the hole before his stick, is out.
He then has to take the ball him
self.

Queer.

In my geography find some things
immensely queer,
Such as the folks that lie in bed all
day, all night, all year.
they run along, now fast, now slow,
but have no feet at all,
And do not seem to hurt themselves
If something makes them fall,
Perhaps they have an arm, or two, or
three, or even more,
And though they have no throats nor
tongues they sometimes fairly
roar.
Their heads are very small indeed,
their mouths are very wide,
None OF them owns a penny, yet all
have banks by their side.
such folks, with neither fingers, nor
hands, nor eyes, nor ears,
NOE legs, nor backs, you must agree
are surely rather queer.
