Landscape Painting

T ANDSCAPE painting is a comparatively
II modern art. 1t was unknown among
the ancients, and ii was not until the sixteenth
century that, through the efforts of Titan, it
came into popularity.
OF course, long before the time of this painter
the Italian masters did skies and forests and
mountains; but these were purely subordinate
TO other objects, and were not painted for the
sole sake of the landscape. Perhaps landscape
painting was not adopted sooner because of
the supersttions which the ancients connected
with the lonely forests and mountains.

In the Surface Car

A FAT Irishwoman, bearing a number of
\ bundles, entered a crowded street car.
The only semblance of seat she could find
was small space at the right of smartlv
dressed youth. Into this space, sufficient
only for an individual of ordinary size the
tieshy lrishwoman squeezed herself, much to
the annoyance OF the youth
Alter moment or so the IrishwOman pro-
duced a cheese sandwich, which she proceeded
to devour with every evidence of relish
At this the youth gave her look of ineffable
disgust and drew the skirts of his frock coat
closer to him.

the woman, that yed prayfer-r to have a
gintleman sittin' mkt to We

THERE IS a colored preacher in Mobile who

One Sunday evening, after preaching a long
sermon bearing upon the good old fashioned

ments TO the newfangled religion" in no un-
certain terms. Finally he pounded the pulpit
and wound up with:

An Undesired Novelty

New things We see as the years go bv,
And we jubilate and laugh,
AS the hOrseless cab doth catch the eve,
Or the wireless telegraph.
But we beg them to stop these hurrying years,
In their ceaselesS rush and whirl,
When they threaten to bring US that sight for
tears,
The loverless summer girl.

Shylock's Origin

9 HAkESPEARE derived the character
~ Shylock from an actual occurrence which
took place in Venice. According to the works
OF George Lett, we find that wager of pound
OF flesh laid between Christian and a
Jew on the discovery of Santo Domingo.
1t IS believed that Shakespeare took this in
cident for the plot OF the Merchant Of Venice.

A HARD KICK At CHRONIC KICKER.
From Time Lmmemorial it Has Been
Thus Nan Simply Cannot Help
But nick.

The Keedysville correspondent of a
county paper writes as follows:
Man is ''kicker" and always has
been from time immemorial and has so
much of the animal force within
that he cannot help kicking at the very
things given to him. We hear him
kicking against every invention or dis
covery in art and science. He kicks
and he kicks until he would kick himself
back into the primeval forest where he
could clOthe himself with the skins of
Wild beasts, live in caves and dugouts
and subsist on roots, banks, nuts and
wild fruits. The most ridiculous of all
the kickers is the kicker who kicks at
the printing preSS-Who refuses to pa
tronize his local paper, but borrows it
from his neighbor and cheats the editor
and causes his neighbor..to grit his teeth
when he sits down to read his paper
and 10! it has not returned. This same
kind of akicker kicks mulishly if he is
asked to support q church paper, or to
subscribe for work OF literary merit
or value, OF to go into a club combina-
ton and contribute his share toward
getting out a history of his town, or
county, or country. Oh, but he is
kicker and would, if he could, kick the
headstones from his own grave. Yes,
we are all kickers for don't you see in
this the kick of the writer kicking at
the kicker?
Some people are really thoughtless or
selfish, or so narrow-minded that they
cannot see why farmers or others driv-
ing to town should have convenient
hltching place near a church. Ny! My!
Could the officials of a church see more
than through glass darkly they would
be Wide-awake to the interests of the
church in making every thing possible.

more inviting so long as their acts

Catherine Built the Palace.

The Petrovsky palace is charming
monument to the more picturesque side
of Catherine the Greats character. 1t
was her villa without the walls Of Mos
COW, where she could live at her ease,
surrounded by her intimates, the
ApraXins, the Volkonskys the Golitsins,
the RazumOvs. She would have no
soldiers to guard her. She preferred to
rest under the protection of her own
people, and the people came crowding
about the palace, saying: Make no
noise. Do not disturb our little moth
err" She loved the fields and woods of
Petrovsky, as we'll she might 1t was
in this neighbOrho0d that she herself
awaited the approach of her coronation,
staying in Count Razumov's wonderful
villa, which so astonished Lord Herbert
and William Cox in ITS. She had
the palace built to commemorate the
Russian victories over the Turks and
intrusted the task to native architect
who knew how to adapt Gothic lines to
Russian taste and to combine splendor
with comfort. The red walls, with
their white stone facings and round
towers, seen among the trees, give a
delightful impression of elegant seclu-
sion. Since GATHERINGS day all the en-
perors of Russia have awaited the day

Oh good many years. He failed
three times and his financial career il

creditors got together for conference
with him. When it was found that his
liabilities ran near the million mark
they eagerly helped him resume, for
the sake of preserving general bust

'S0mc years later he went under
again, There was another conference
of creditors. The liabilities were small
er this time, but ran into the hundreds
of thousands. We mustn't impede an
able financier,' they decided, and he
was helped to become solvent once
more.
but after his third failure the liza
bilties ran up to almost nothing at all

creditors met and decided that the age
showed too strong a tendency toward
reckless speculation. SO they drove
