collection of Japanese pottery, made
by Prof. Edward S. Moore, is more
completely representative of the pot
terry of the island kingdom than the
acquisitions of all other museums oil

In Buddhist sculpture the museum
is rich, and out of many examples one
may especially be selected, a beautiful
example of Japanese art dating back
to the eighth century, bronze statu-
cite of KWannon, angel of mercy.
It is especially to the collection Of
original works in Greek art contained
in the Museum of Fine Arts that the
visitors attention should be directed.
Owing to the difficulty of getting orig
1inal works, American museums have
often been obliged to present Greek
art through the medium of plaster
casts and other reproductions. The
wide popularity of coasts and the al.
most total absence of original works
has caused many persons to form
definite but false idea Of Greek art,
the more subtle qualities of which
cannot be studied in reproductions
In view of these facts 1t is a subject
of congratulation that so many phases

come down from antiquity. 1t is be-

OFFICE BOY TO GOVERNOR

people sought him out to take places
of trust.
Before he had been in politics a
very long time the proprietor of the
old book store was president of the
influential organization known as the
Young Republicans He became so
popular in this post that the Pennsyl-
vania State League of Republican
clubs chose him for its president.
The tall, handsome, CHEEKY, courte-
Gus merchant made friends on all
sides and soon became manifest a
spontaneous demand to have him for
mayor.
There was no politics in the move
ment, it had no manager, no cam
paign fund, no promoting. Lots Of
people liked Stuart, and thought him
the right man for the place.
Eventually they put him there.
During the years of his rise, Stuart
had been essentially mothers boy.
His affection for his mother was the
mainspring of his life, and he re-
manned a bachelor in order to be with
her. He is still unmarried

Stuart had trying administration.
1t fell to his lot to be mayor when a
trusted city treasurer, John Bardsley
robbed the city Of great sums of
money. Other offenders Of his own
party, men who had helped in the
movement to make him mayor, were
involved.
Many man might have thought it
political wisdom to shield the Offend
ers, but Mr.. Stuart had rugged sense
of old-fashionej honesty that was not
to be compromised with. He institu-
ted a most rigid investigation, and
prosecuted the guilty without fear or
favor. AS result John Bardsley went
to prison.
Stuart had also to deal with rapa-
cious trolley companies, but he
forced them to concessions in the way
of street paving in return for fran
chises that have made Philadelphia
one of the best paved cities in the
United States.
This was Stuart's record when he
left Office and went back to private
life.
Three mayors Warwick, Ashoridge
and Weaver-have ruled in Philadel-
phia since that time, and Mr.. Stuart
held no public Office in the interval.
All during his term of Office as
mayor he had held onto the old book
store, though the active. management

But although the former mayor
was willing to escape from the lime
light, his friends still remembered his
qualities and his services Without
having been a candidate, he was
chosen president of the Union League,
perhaps the highest social honor that
can come to a Philad elphion. SIS
His next highest elevation is the
selection to he governor. -
The governor-elect formed the habit
of walking to his place OF business
when he was an errand coy, and could
not afford to spend car fare. He has
chung to it ever since, and, scorning
carriages or automobiles, he, walks up
town every morning, though he is fully
two miles away from the center of the
city,
His tall figure and kindly face are

On the morning after his election
the children of the neighborhood,
knowing his hour for starting uptown,
clustered around his step in order ia
be the first to salute him with the title
of governor"
Mr.. Stuart is a Mason, member OF
the board of city trusts, and a promi,
nent clubnan.
His success shows that a man can
come up from nothing, and it, proves
equally that in the. process he can
still be kindly and honest, and not fot.

A Fish Tale Of the Mouse.

An angler in the River Meuse in
Belgium, while fishing recently, felt
a light bite as he was pulling in his
line. Then there was a second pull,
and just as the fish was appearing on
the water an enormous pike made a
spring at it, and went OFF with his
prey and 100 feet Of line.
After much trouble it was wound
in, and the astonished angler found
that he had caught first a perch Of
about one pound weight and well on
the hook, then pike of four pounds,
which had half swallowed the perch
then a pike of thirteen pounds weight
who had seized on the smaller pike In
his endeayor to werst the perch from
him.

BIRTH OF WHITE ELEPHANT.
Governor of Rangoon Province Comes
Into Valuable Possession.

Governor of Rangoon Province Comes
Into Valuable Possession.
Reports from Rangoon say that the
Burmese world has been stirred by
the birth of two white elephants not
far from Chiengmai. Siam will also
be thrilled, says the London Express.
One of the rarities was born in one
of the herds of the governor of La
kawn, the other in that of a timber
merchant. The latter elephant was
given to tiger to eat, as the Bur.
mese say timber merchant is not
worthy of white elephant, which is
the prerogative of kings and chiefs.
The advent of the governors white
elephant was heralded in the most ap.
proved Eastern manner The governor
dreamed that innumerables statues OF
Buddha strolled about his room and
sat on his head. He also dreamed
that he had to carry the BIO tree, I'M.
der which Gautama attended the
omniscience, as well as the throne on
which he sat.
Next morning the governor called
his soothsayers together to interpret
his dream, and the old gentlemen
were rubbing their noses and looking
up at the ceiling for explanations when
some one walked in and announced
that a white elephant had been born.
The soothesayers were at once able to.
explain that the governors dream.
meant that he was to be a person Of
power.
The white elephant, protected with
a white umbrella, was escorted into
the town with regal pomp, attended.
by several companies of elephants and
horses, while band played and hun
dreds of people marched along. The
elephantine baby is described thus:
His skin is of a pale straw color, his
hair is white like unto silver needles,
his palate and tongue are quite red,
his eyes resemble rubies of the purest
water. He is a perfect white ele

A VISIT FROM FATHER TIME

soothing pipe and bowl, to keep out
winters chilling gloom, give rest and
ease my soul; the pine logs roared and
Kissed in glee and warmed my shiv-

come to me, like grotesque manikins.
I'd see Old Year depart his way, the
New Years gentle birth, while watch

So naught I said, but let him drink
to his old hearts content: he did not
dream nor even think how punches oft
resent. And when he got congenial-
like, his moods were very queer; he
went far back as ancient Tighk, then
talked Milwaukee beer!
He took my pipe and puffed and
blew.

She comes in robes of trailing cloud
And coronet of stars,
From where times pillows rise and
crowd
Across the foamy bars,
Through skies of gray that stretch
away,
Her wild hair floating free,
She comes to where her kingdom lies
By either land or sea.
For her the dawn's pale buds of light
Are round her pathway thrown,
AS like a banner in the fight
The night is backward blown,
And dims afar the last lone star
AS on her chariot goes,
While in the east the later streaks
Grow ruddy as a rose.
And fades the old years WORKOUT
scythe
AS some half-moon's faint line,
And Januarys heralds blithe
In icy armor shine,
While round her train the frozen rain,
That some misname the snow,
Has caught a million sun-glints bright
From out the sunrise glow.
And glad her face as on she speeds
Toward the rising sun,
With light of hope and noble deeds
Of faith and duty done,
And in her eyes the swift surprise
OF all that round her waits,
Where morning, as she passes by,
Has opened wide the gates.

beneficial to him. He still retains
his farm in Spirit Lake township, but
we believe there is no reason to hope
that the family will return to make
it their home. The ADJUST family
leave a host Of friends here to wish
them well in their new home. They
were among the pioneers of the north
