ODD EFFECTS OF A. CRAZE
Some Results That Have Followed the
Post Card Fad Here and Abroad.
J. w. HARRINGTON in American Mapa-

Z zine.
To the boom in picture postcards the
postmaster general Of Great Britain
.ascribes decrease Of one-half per cent
in the number Of letters delivered last
in the United Kingdom 734, 100000
cent, and of these so per cent were
privately printed. The per capita al
lowance Of postal cards in the king
dom would be seventeen to each per-
son. In many localities in the United
States the postoface facilities have
mir postals, while on, the board walk
at Atlantic City riots have been mar
rowly averted because the authorities
had neglected to supply enough l-cent
stamps to meet the demand Of the vic
Tins of carditis postale.
Other insidious forms of the collect
ing mania, however, are coincident with
that which is propagated by pasteboard.
Thousands of well-meaning persons are
in ornate designs on nearly everything
but doormats. Women of culture and
refinement are sewing the painfully yell
low ribbons which come around bun
dies of cigars into sofa pillows, and the
expostulations of husbands and fathers
are of no avail. The latest mania is
for ink kissed kisses. Small albums are
now provided, on the pages of which
may be imprinted the impress Of the
carmine- lips of the person who
subscribes his regards in the book. Some
| Of these kisses are bunchy; others we'll
defined and many small and pecky. &
Among the other forms Of mania are
the eccentric fevers which result in
their sufferers gathering newspaper
headings, pewter mugs, old locks, stones
Iof queer shapes, arctic feas, old tables,
souvenir spoons, hotel loot, beer labels,
theater ticket coupons, meteorites, tum
BILE Bugs g birds eggs and and scarab eaa
Tendencies Of this kind he may near
| ly anywhere scratch Tartar. This
may seem an extravagant statement,
but I have on more than one occasion
Iput it to the test.

A FANTASTIC GATE
Boston Globe.

The two long stone walls surround
ing the McGee estate on Church street,
BrookIine, not far from the West
Roxbury line, are joined by what is
known as the pillow gate, combination
of farming implements. The gate is
trihe more than half the height Of
the average-sized man and is wide
enough for a narrow vehicle to pass
thru
In the upper right hand corner is
a pillow. the handles Of which extend
some distance above the top Of the
structure Just below the pillow is a
fork. the handle of which also tops
above the gate. The framework is
Joined together on the left-hand side
by a spade in upright position. A tn
anpular-shaped ground leveler conf
pletes the frame by reason of its being
set in such a position as to form the
crosspiece at the bottom and dag
onal brace crossing the center. In an
upright position in the center of the
gate is q hoe, the blade of which
comes above the top frame, making In
all five top pieces as ornaments.
This unique combination is the result
of fantastic idea carried out many
wears ago when Professor Crafts was
alive. He owned and occupied the
property, and 1t IS SUN KNOWN TO many
as the old Craft estate.
Professor Crafts was botanist OF
considerable note and often made trips
abroad for the purpose of botanical
research. On such occasions he re-
NAMED away for from two to three
wears. and upon his return would bring
rare and queer plants and shrubs.
These he had put in the soil on his
estate. where they thrived for many
wears. Some of the old shrubs are still
to be found on the estate, tho all
semblance of life has left them.
