New England Sunset.

Now in the west sinks the sun sinks like
some fiery ember,
Quenched by a giant hand in a lake of
purple and crimson;
Over the eastern horizon, soft as the snow
On the mountains,
Floats in the mist from the ocean, settling
over the landscape.
Far from the forest the tWitter of song
birds is waited by breezes
That bring from the meadows and uplands
the scent of the hay that is making.
Slow grows the light in the west, till at last
it has reached to the zenith,
Changing the tieecy clouds to forms that
are strange and fantastic;
Then of sudden it dies and out of the
world goes the brightness,
Leaving the night in its place, and the
moon to take up her journey.
But as the night settles down myriad beings
awaken,
And to the listening ear come the soft
voices of evening,
Loud from neighboring hillside pulses the
note Of the whip-poor-
And from the marshes below numberless
frogs send their murmur,
While in the boughs overhead birds softly
tlutter and rustic;
And as you stand there alone, breathing
the pure air of evening,
Sweeter you'll say is New England than
isles in the far away tropics,
Sweeter the scent of the hay than the breath
OF the palm groves and vineyards.

THE ORIGIN OF "DREAmwoLD."
How Thomas w. Lawson Came to BuilG
His Magnificent Country Place.

How Thomas w. Lawson Came to Build
His Magnificent Country Place.
In the July issue of H uman Life, the
popular new scent magazine, edited by
Alfred Henry Lewis, is printed an ex-
ceedingly interesting article on
Thomas W. Lawson, The Heart of
the Man." in which the author relates
how Mr.. Lawson came to build
"Dreamwold," his magnificent country
place. The story is as follows:
The origin of "Dreamwold," his mag
nificent summer place on the. South
Shore, is as pretty story as ever was
told in Already. In his boyhood he had
pictured for himself home set in
green fields bordered with white fences,
and when fortune was smiling strong
upon him and the means to provide
such home had been amassed, he dis
cussed the proposition with his wife,
One afternoon, as they were driving
through the village called Egypt
toward Cohasset, they reached an up
land whence a magnificent panorama
stretched out before them. In the dis
lance, beyond the intervale of green
pastures, the ocean shone like Jewel,
and the setting sun was glorious as if
It was giving a goodnight caress to
Minot's Light.
This is just where I'd like house."
said Mrs. Lawson, drinking in the
beauty of the picture with animated
pleasure. And right there the house
was located. Many times it has been
wondered why he chose that particular
site, not because it was not charming
one naturally. but because the fields
surrounding it, and which constitute
part of the estate, were bleak in spots
with the projecting vertebr@ of the
granite backbone Of the country; so
bleak, in fact, that the process of pro-
ducing the wide expanse of green into
which the surroundings have been
transformed, was a most expensive
one. It is all very we'll to talk of max
ing two blades of grass grow where but
one grew before, but it is quite another
proposition when the cost of each
additional blade may almost be figured
in tangible units of dollars and cents.
But obstacles of this kind enter

WHAT Is GOOD SOCIETY ,

Somebody said she would like to get
into good society. II started the ques-
tion. What is good society?
Good society is that where toadyism
is frowned down upon and scandal.
mongers are not admitted.
Good society is that where one earns
ones title of eentlewoman, not only by
birth, but by good manners.
Good society is that where men are
respectful. where off-color stories are
not told. and where the women do not
smoke cigarettes.
Good society is that where to UNDER
stand Greek is of less Importance than
to understand courtesy in all its laws.
Good society is that which is not per-
sonal in it's talk, but which fluids suffi-
cient topics of interest to discuss with
out dilating on the sins of its neighbors.
Good society is that where the art Of
welcoming the coming and speeding

believed to be untruthful. deceitful and
ill-bred. they are ostracised.
Good society is that which can give .
dinner without sending a notice Of it to
the newspapers. can introduce .
daughter without having her frocks

which believes that tie family and its
happiness is of more importance than

Good society is that which, while il

tional rules, is yet sufficiently strong to
be guided occasionally by hearts. and
not of necessity to follow leader. as
sheep do.

Diseased Pork May Be the Cause.
DR.. Higgins believes he has arrived at
the root of the present unhealthful con-
dition in Tonopah. says the Sun OF
April Ia. Yesterday he visited the two
slaughter houses at the edge of town
and found an appalling condition Of
affairs.
Hogs have been dying for the past
two months with some disease pre-
sumed to be cholera and there is little
attention given to disposing of the car
casses. One reputable witness tells
this paper that he counted Is rotting
carcasses with live hogs feeding about
them. Hogs are carnivorous and
cannibalistic and there is little doubt
that they were eating the bodies Of their
dead kinsmen.
DIR. Higgins says that when he visited
the slaughter house yesterday he found
hogs roofing in pits filled with decom-
posing entrails and all manner Of re-
fuse including embryo pigs, all germ
laden and pus filed.
The hogs eat this indiscribable filth
and the people of Tonopah eat the hogs.

In taking the chair DIR. Bowes stated
that q very large percentage Of the pre-

vegetable matter and the vegetable

doctor asserted that the same condition

who drink it are apt to catch the dis
