A u.as.. Cost Of Arms.

There was one Philadelphia who not
only invented arms for himself, but
new and republican arms. after dis
carding the ancestral arms Of his fam
iH. This was Peter Brown, at one
time an eminent citizen Of Philadel-
phia. In 11D4 William Priest, an Eng
lish musician, became attached to the
theater in Philadelphia In his pro.
fessional capacity. In 1902 Mr.. Priest
printed In London q book entitled
Priests Travels In the United
States" which is now exceedingly
rare. The frontispiece to this book is
. strange and curious design, entitled
''Peter Browns Arms" In explana.

says: peter Brown, a blacksmith Of
this city. having made his fortune,

and I insist that you behave just like
all old married men do. Do you hear?''

On the first evening Of their arrival
at their hotel the bride retired, and
the groom fell in with whist party,
with whom no sat playing cards till
o'clock in the morning. His wife spent
the weary hours in weeping.
At last he turned up and met his
grief stricken bride with the hilarious
question:
'Well, amt doing the old marie l

She never referred to the subject
again, and everybody in future knew
that they had just been married.

Father Of ,aoaer. Landscape.

Constable painted the scene as he
saw 1t, but he was not satisfied with
merely copying nature. It was to him
80 real a companion that, in the first
place, he tried to make 1t live in his
the clouds might move
and overhang the spot, that its atmos-
phere might penetrate every part Of
the scene and that trees and water and
the very plants by the roadside might
move and have their being In It, and,
secondly, he put his own personal af-
lection into his representation. Then,
too, in the matter Of color, which can
not be judged from the reproduction,
he dared to paint nature green, as he
saw It, and the skies blue, with the
sunshine either yellow or glaring
white. It Is, then, because Of this
closer faithfulness 10 the hues Of ma
ture and to the effects Of movement, Of
and of light and because
he interpreted nature according to his
own mood that Constable is called the
father Of modern landscape. for these
are the qualities that particularly &C.
cupied the artists Of the nineteenth
century.-St. Nicholas.

THE MONEY CRAZE.

Weoag Standard ~ Witch the Woel4
IL Proee e Measure Men.
The money craze, or tendency to
eommercialiae the ideal. 10 found In oil
walks Of life. Never before were 20
many cierumen, especially young
clergtmen, leaving the pulpit to 90 in
to business. The great commercial
prizes are % tempting that their own
pitiful salaries look contemplate In
comparison. There are clergymen in
the American pulpit preaching for
few hundred dollars year who know
perfectly well, and everybody else
knows, too, that they could make many
times az much money in business ca
reers. Many Of them do not see why
they should not become rich and pow
erfuL They do not understand why
using this money making capacity 10
not as legitimate for them as for 9TH
ers. In other words. there is a power
ful temptation today for a clergyman
to turn his creative faculties into mon
ey making channels.
Many Of our lawyers are looking for
big fees rather than for great legal
acumen or high standing at the bar.
They know that lawyers are envied
today not 80 much as members Of
great and learned profession, uphold
ers Of the majesty and Justice Of the
law, as because many Of them make
great deal Of money from their prac-
uce. They know. too. that they are
ranked by fellow lawyers largely in
proportion to their ability to get big
fees. 1t IL well known that some Of
the men who get enormous fees and
become millionaires are not great law
yers at all and have nothing like the
legal ability Of others who are not
paid quarter Of their fees. What is
his practice worth? seems to be the
question by which to measure law
yer's standing in the minds Of most
people.
Physicians and surgeons are meas
red I'm much the same way. How Of
ten we hear it said, "Why, that physt-
clan has q practice of $4,000 a year"
Sometimes the sum named is twice or
thrice as great. Just as IL this was
the measure Of physician's useful
ness! OF course in sense getting
enormous fees is some proof Of his
ability, but It Is not the best evidence
Of mans real service to the world.
Many authors today do not seem to
think 30 much Of putting Immortality
into their compositions-of writing
books which shall live through all time
AS Of earning the largest amount Of
money possible with their pens. Few
modern writers would spend years up
on a tiny bit Of composition or ex-
change their lives for few immortal
verses or q single book that the world
would not let die.-Success.

Song Of the Flame.

Fire can be made to sing. A writer
says: "Take q lighted candle and blow
gently against the flame. You will hear
q peculiar fluttering sound. The futter.
ing sound is fires first attempts at mu-
sic. Instead of the unsteady breath of
our lips let us employ the steady blast
Of blowpipe. Instead Of the pale and
pickering light Of candle let us use
the bright and ardent glare Of a chem
lists lamp. When you have lamp and
blowpipe you can make fire sing in
earnest"

CORRECT ATTIRE.

He Who Dresses In Coed Taste shows
That He Respects Himself.
When our country was In the log
cabin stage Of its growth correct dress
was not held In high regard, and obvi-
ously 80. The stout hearted pioneers
were too busy hewing paths and blax-
ing trails to cultivate LIES finer side.
Theirs was the rough work Of field
and camp, OF hammer and saw. But
times. men and manners have changed,
and new conception Of dress has
sprung up. Young men especially rec
ognise the direct relation Of correct
dress In business and social prefer
ment. The well dressed man carries
his Introduction with him-he Is mas
ter Of himself and Of the situation. He
commands the respect Of others be-
cause he shows that he respects him
self.
It is true that there are some men
Of wealth and position who slur their
clothes and even some who feign to
scorn the niceties Of dress. The hab-
its Of careless youth have left their
imprint on such men, and It Is quite
certain that their disdain Of dress
played no part In their success and
detracts measurably from their enjoy
ment Of 1t, for, after all. the ripest
fruit Of success 10 the esteem Of ones
