me from John Smith. So | said: I'll
tell 'em something about George A.
Flagg and how he made his money
There are just four ways that I've
done this-by dealing in cattle, in
cider, in wood and in houses. So
had the things carved to stand for
these four things, and that made just
a neat block for each corner. Then
had the middle block with my name
on IL and the sentence which tells
just what the meaning of the other is.
There is another thing about that
middle block that people don't know;
1t is just my height from top to bot
tom and from corner to corner.
81 had a good deal of trouble in
getting that monument put up. Three
or four contractors figured on 1t, but
they had to give 1t up because they
couldn't get the right kind of marble.
One Of the things | insisted on was
that the stone should be white with
C. block weighing ten tons, which is
what that middle one weighs, with
out flaw Of some sort.
Then a lot Of people objected to
having the monument there anyway.
But | ain't ashamed Of it, and | amt
ashamed of how | made my money.
The more they talk the more adver-
tising | get, anyway.
81 make about 5000 barrels Of cider
year, and sell 1t all over the country.
Somebody buys barrel, and they tell
their friends about 1t, and that is
the way it goes.
"And have sold thousands Of cords
of wood, too. That's why have a
wood pile on one of the small stones.
Sometimes in the winter | have as
many as fifty men chopping for me.
OF course the wood isn't all cordwood;
some of 1t goes in for lumber. With
this lumber have built houses, when
didn't want to sell II, and that's kept
the cost of building down for me.
For tell you lumber is a great item
when it comes to building a house,
and I've got twenty-one houses to-day
that | own and every one of them is
full of good paying tenants"
Mr.. Flagg's home, where he lives
with a wife and seven children, is on
the road between Worcester and the
town of Boylston about two and one
half miles from the latter. Mr.. Flagg
built it himself 1t stands on the site
which has been used for houses for
four generations of Flaggs. In the
rear of the house are large barns, and
directly across the street another barn
in which is the cider mill.

Didh,t Need Cash

An American judge, who used to
wear very long, wavy hair, and a very
heavy beard, one day was on his way
to court when he was accosted by a
little street bootblack with an ex-
ceedingly dirty face, with his custom
airy "Shine, slr?"
He was quite importunate, and the
judge, being impressed with the ter
rble state OF the boys face, said: II
don't want a shine, but IL you will go
and wash your face III give you a
dime"
"All right, sir"
"Well, let me see you do It."
The boy went over to the bydrant
and made his abulition.
Returning, he held out his hand for
the dime.
The judge said, "Well, you've earn
ed your money; here 1t is"
The boy said, II don't want your
money, old fellow! You take II and
have your hair CUT" and forthwith
scampered off.

"The emDiems on the four corners of
this lot represent the different kinds
Of business in which I have been en-
gagged"
So reads the inscription on a marble
tombstone in a cemetery at Boylston
erected by George A. Flagg to himself.
Mr.. Flagg is not dead yet. Far from
it; he is engaged in a prosperous busi-
ness, cider-making and se-building;
but he wanted to have lis tombstone
made to suit him, so he had it done
now, in order to supervise the job.
And 1t is certainly unique.
The heavy block of white marble
bearing the above inscription stands in
the middle of the lot, while at each of
the four corners there is a smaller one
of almost the same shape. But in the
smaller ones the top is followed, and
within this hollow on the first stone
there is marble representation Of a
pile of cordwood; in the second Of a
COW; in the third Of cider barrel, and
in the fourth house.
In the meanwhile, he is alive, and is
willing to tell all those who ask by
word Of mouth. His shrewdness is still
with him. and he even looks upon the
monument as bit of good advertising.
AS he says, many stranger has gazed
at the monument, inquired about him
out of curiosity, found he made good
cider, and has ordered some.
He Is still young-only about 40. He
is rather short OF stature, has black
hair, black eyes, a black mustache
and the ruddy cheeks of a boy.
How did | happen to erect such a
monument" he repeated, in reply to
question put to him. "Wel, I'll tell
you. Ever since | was knee high to
grasshopper' I've been going
through cemeteries looking at the
tombstones. ! used to like to read
the inscriptions, and then wonder
about the men. On most of them
there wasn't much but Here Lies

have hunted up some of their friends
and found out, probably, but that isn't
the point. Here was ], a stranger,
just passing through, and naturally
curious to know something about the
fellows who had done their work and
retired.
"The more / got to thinking about
this, the more | made up my mind
that when 1t came my turn | wouldn't

by the door, and from them one can
look into the crib of the cider mill
into which apples are dumped.
Just back of the house runs a ledge
of rock, and in this ledge there Is coal.
One day. while playing about the
woodshed, boy, Levi Lincoln, found
big chunk of something that he
thought was stone. But 1t glistened
and sparkled SO that he recognized 1t
wasn't any ordinary stone, and car
rled it to his father. Mr.. Flagg. in
turn, became interested, and showed
it to some of the engineers and other
men whom he always has working for
him. One of the engineers, after pick
ing at 1t for few moments, said:
why, that's COAL"
Mr.. Flagg went to Clark university
and submitted the chunk to some Of
the mineralogy experts there, and
they, after thorough analysis, con-
frmed the statement of the engineer
that 1t was coal.
The ledge in which this find was
made runs directly behind the house,
not twenty feet from the back door.
In fact, part of it Is under the
woodshed. From the house 1t extends
some 800 feet, cropping out above the
ground here and there, until 1t ap-
parently ends in the barnyard.
No sooner had the experts Of Clark
university declared that the specimen
Mr.. Flagg had shown them was coal
that some of them went out to see the
ledge, and, after making observations
and drilling here and there, they told
him that he certainly had coal mine
OIL his land. But what kind Of coal
1t Is Mr.. Flagg doesn't know, or rather
has forgotten.
81 don't remember what they called
IT," said he, "but it is very soft, and
it burns Just like tinder. Many time
the children go out there and dig
Eieces out and burn it. So far I have
only done a little toward developing
IL. because, although the experts have
said it was coal, | really don't take
much stock in the idea that | have a
coal mine.
However, when heard what those
! men said l decided to spend $500 in
vestigating. OF course, $500 don't 60
far in mining, but that $500 I put In
came so near knocking to pieces my
house, that cost about $4,000 for me
to put up. that have never spent any
! more on 1t. But reckon I shall try
1t again"
And so 1t is possible My Flagg may
have to add fifth stone. This win
contain lump OF coal.-Roston Hsy-

How Muscle Works

DR.. Covers compares a contracting
muscle to a gas engine. In the muscle
before It contracts the atoms are held
apart by interatomic notion" When
a stimulus acts on the fibers the atoms
suddenly form closer compounds, by
means olioxygen, the fbers shorten and
broaden, and the whole muscle con-
tracts.
we do not know how this concentra-
ton Of the energy released is effected:
but we can see its analogy when coal gas
mixed with air is exploded in the cylin-
der Of a gas engine" The spark there
furnishes the stimulus which produces
atomic change. The materials combin-
ing in this chemical reaction are finally
used up, and no more contractions can be
secured until the muscle has rested. and
collected a new supply Of fuel-N. Y.

with a bitter hatred. as the kindred of
those who oppress their brethren in
Prussia The RutheEians are also Slav
race, inhabiting the Bukovina province
but between Ruthenian and Pole there
has sprung up an enmity which is diff.

politics. Between Cracow, the capital
of Austrian Poland and Posen and War

and it is generally believed that the pro-
vincial wire-pullers are in Cracow.
/ What prospect have the Poles of real

So long as Germany, Austria and Rus
sia remain strong enough to crush them
their prospects are of the gloomiest It
is quite likely that any one of these
three powers would willingly cooperate
with the others were it needful, in
crushing Polish insunection. The
Polish leaders, besides. with all their
brilliant gifts, are not statesmen. They
are enthusiastic patriots, If you like, but
they are too easily swept by waves OF
sentiment, and. while eagerly engaged
in attending TO the minor questions of
the present, are neglecting the consid-

Eastern Chicken Raisers Use Savage
Animals to Protect Their
Henneries.

No limit Is there 10 the ramificationf
Ia the improvements Of trolley systems
Up at Cheswick. on the West Penn rail
road. the jealous guardian Of hen
roost has placed watchdogs on trolleys,
reports the Pittsburg Dispatch.
When the doubIe-b -barreled shotgun,
the trusty rifle, the snare pistol, the
deadfaIl, the midnight scarecrow and
the rabbits foot failed to frighten off
chicken thieves the faithful bulldog and
the rattling trolley served in garrisoaing
an impregnable fortress against the
incursion OF marauders.
OF course, this trolley line is no cleo
trio system, but 1t is not fsr-fetched
expression to say that there is a formid-
able power house. This is a dog kennel
where nine man-eating bulldogs are
housed.
When a marauder approaches the pen
the dog on sentry duty on that particu-
lar side Of the hennery leaps up and sal
lies forth along the wire to which he Is
chained. He can follow the line Of the
wire for 100 yards, but cannot leave his
pathway.
Robert Jefferies rules the Cheswick
roost and the trolley scheme is his own
invention. Last spring he went up there
and cleared off 25 acres and built half
a dozen nice. coy henhouses. He
bought 1900 hens and soon was collect
ing 100 dozen eggs a day.
They were big, fat birds. and it is not
surprising that they appeared tempting
In the eyes of those citizens of Cheswick
who had no scruples as to obtaining
chicken dinner without going through
the formality Of buying the pullets in
the market.
Mr.. Jefferies soon discovered that he
was not getting quite 100 dozen eggs
day, and thought 1t was the fault of the
hens. One day he took a census Of his
flock and discovered that a number of
fine birds were missing.
The nights were dark and each morn
ing more chickens failed to show up at
roll call. Mr.. Jefferies bought shotgun
and placed man on guard, but the
grounds were so large that a thief would
break In on the west side and get away
with a bagful Of loot from the roosts
while the sentry was pacing up the east
ern side.
To double the number OF night watch
men would cut off the profits and snares
we're set. But the thieves were foxy
and refused to be caught.
Driven to desperation Mr.. Jefferies
hit upon his trolley scheme and gotnine
vicious bull pups Around the sides OF
his place in narrow roadway between
the boundary fences and the cages Of the
hencoops he strung the wire.
Each dog has about 100 yards to look
after, and on their first test they seemed
to understand the trick. Not chicken
has been lost since the innovation was
adopted and the power" was turned on
