An ENIGMA IN STONE.
"Nirvana" In the Rock Creek Gene.
tory at WASHINGTON.

E
So many things may be said of 81.
Gaudens-of the traits of his genius,
his modesty, his deep sympathy with
all who possessed high ideals or who
had noble thoughts; of his own noble
generosity, his willingness to sacrifice
himself for the advancement of art,
his keen perception of beautiful char
acter, or of a fine impulse that often
shone for him out of the most COM
monplace of lives or of features. One
Incident of many, says Harper's Week
ly, may not only Illustrate him, but
help to illumine masterpiece of his
which has perpleXed some minds that
may be worth the enlightening. 1.-THE
work is the figure of 'Nirvana' in the
Rock Creek cemetery at Washington.
st. Gaudens was in Washington In
the winter of 1902, making his beautl-
full relief of Wayne MacVeagh and
Mrs. MacVeagh, and Hildegarde Haw-
thorne was there, too, and visited more
than once that dreaming figure in the
cemetery. AT last she was moved to
write some verses, which she sent to
magazine, but the editor thought that
he had seen verses on the sculptor's
work that better expressed its senti-
ments, and returned the verses with
the stimulating suggestion that some
day he would show the young woman
some real poetry about the figure. st.
Gaudens, too, had seen both poems,
and when he heard Of this expression
90 \, -
said that Hildegarde Hawthorne had
OWNED his intention as no writer had
done, and therefore the verses are Ill
print So, If you like, you may solve
the riddle by reading them.'

AN EXTINCT ANIMAL. !
The saber Toothed Tiger Was For.
midabIe Creature.

n1idable Creature.
The most remarkable of all the ex.
tinct feline animals are those known
to naturalists as the saber toothed
cats or tigers, a group comprising the
greater part of all the fossil forms.
They date back to the earliest times Of
which we know anything about the
family in North America and reach
down to the time of man himself. A
large and powerful species described
from the Indian Territory by Cope
lived contemporaneously with the
hairy mammoth, as evidenced by the
,commingling of their skeletons. There
can be little or no question but that
the hairy mammoth was contempora.-
neous with man in North America
as well as in Europe. Its geological
range is from the close of the eocene
to the latter part of the plelstocene
( The chief popularity of the animal
is the extraordinary elongated canine
teeth. The tail Is of unusual length
and the legs are short. The animal
measures about seven feet in length
aside from the tail. The lower jaws
have downward projection in front.
due to tlangelike widening of the
jawbones, which doubtless served rs a
protection to the teeth, preventing their
injury or loss. In some of the larger
forms from South America this fiange
was not present, while the canine
teeth We're even more elongated than
is the case with this species, attaining
a length of over six inches and pro-
truding far below the jaws when
closed.

BALANCE IN THE AIR.
The Necessity For Equilibrium In Bird
Flight.

Flight.
1t is likely that the birds superb
ease and grace in the air are due to its
ability to maintain absolute balance.
If gull makes the mistake of bend
ing until the wind strikes its head
and wings on the top it will tumble
instantly. And the sailing birds,
though they make no Tapping motion
of their wings. are constantly balanc-
Ing themselves. like man on tight
rope. Some scientists have maintained
that the air sacs make it possible for
the bird to manage minute changes
that are very valuable in restoring
equilibrium. 1t is known that the
wing is Joined to the body of the bird
by what is called n universal joint,
enabling the creature to make almost
every possible motion. The body of
man is heavier than water, but If he
gets into a position of perfect balance
he will float. In some such way, 1t is
claimed, the bird floats in the air. But
as the bird would fall much more rap
idly in the air than mans body
would sink in water the necessity for
a far more subtle ability to keep the
center of gravity on the part of the
bird is apparent; hence, according to
this theory, the bird is provided for
this purpose with the most sensitive
equipment, made up of nerves and
mysterious air ducts, many of the wing
feathers perhaps acting as sentinels,
warning instantly of the slightest ap-
proach of shifting currents.-E Every

JOYS OF A COLLECTOR.
Picking Up Valuable Painting at an
Auction Sale.


Auction Sale.
Collecting will always have its To-
mances. know of one that occurred
at the sale at Christies of the effects
of the late Sir Henry Irving. Some
one knew had been to see the collec-
ton before the sale. He came across
Il portrait with which he was familiar
because he had seen it thirty years
before. On consulting his catalogue he
discovered that the portrait was de
scribed rs being that of man I'M
known, and, further, the artist was,
also unknown. Now, he knew that the
portrait was that Of a famous actor by
Il famous English painter. He longed
to buy it, but decided that it would
go at too high a price. He went to the
auction with very little hope. The
Whistler and the Sargent were sold,
and then it was the turn of this picture.
Nobody recognized it. Finally he had
to start the bidding himself, and this
he did. Only one man bid against him,
but he soon stopped, discouraged, and
then the picture was knocked down to
the man who had never expected to
get 1t. He hurried to the desk to pay
the small amount and to carry off his
prize. "Do you happen to know any
thing. about that portrait?" the auc-
tioneer asked him as a porter took it
down to cab. II know it very WE'LL"

was now safely his property. st is II

Roadside Wit.


He who matched wits with the au-
thor of 1.-The Ancient Mariner" had in
deed a lively task before him, for Cole
ridge was never caught mapping. The
poet was so awkward Il horseman that
his riding often attracted comment of
anything but Il complimentary nature.
One day he was riding along the turn
pike road in the county Of Durham
when Il wag who met him fastened
upon him as an excellent subsection
sport. Consequently he drew rein and
said i'll an impertinent drawl:
"Iy graceful friend, did you happen
to meet a tailor on the road:"
I'm inclined to think L did," said
Coleridge meditltivey. Il was not
sure at the moment, but he said some
thing about my meeting goose far
ther along the road"
The wag put spurs to his horse, and
the poet logged calmly on his way,

Started the French WALKING.

The celebrated DR.. Tronchin, friend
of Yoltaire, Rousseau and Diderot, was
the inventor of walking. In France
until his epoch Q7O9-SD the leisured
class never walked either for health
or recreation. Walking was only prac-
ticed by the Tiers Etat Folks footed
it from one place to another simply
because they possessed neither coach
nor sedan chair. DIR. Tronchin, all
initiator in many other respects, in

writes n historian, to take what is now
called a constitutional. To stroll
abroad was named "tronchiner" after
the inventor, and for their airings both
sexes had special costumes and shoes,
the latter being more especially neces-
sary. The verb "tronchiner," by the
way, has not had the fate of our ITO
boycott" having passed into disuse
long ago.-Westminster Gazette.

ALWAYS CHEERFUL.

Even When He Lost Both Feet He
Could Find Consolation.
Browns cheerfulness was source
of wonder and admiration to his
friends, according to the Ladies' Home
Journal. Either his religion or his
philosophy taught him to accept cv-
erything as a wise dispensation. But
then he had Il large share of worldly
goods. his friends argued, and nothing
but adversely would shake his faith.
Therefore when promising crop

Other calamities befell Brown, but
still he refused to be disheartencd.
The climax came when he was in a
railroad accident. Both feet We're SO
badly crushed that amputation was
necessary.
Sympathetic friends gathered from
all quarters. They dreaded to hear the
lamentations they We're sure would
greet them, for even Brown could
hardly be expected to pass this light
ly by.
Guess you are pretty well discour-
aged, aren't you, with both feet cut

But Brown nodded his head, smiling

A FAMOUS ROAD.
lndia's Tree Bordered Highway 1900
Miles In Lenqth.


The road have in my mind is In
India and stretches 1900 miles from
Lahore to Calcutta. 1t is the famous
Grand Trunk road. Let me explain its
nature, though one cannot do so by
comparison, for there is no road of five
miles in England that is anything like
it. 1t is level. Indeed, there is net
above a mile the whole distance where
even a lady need dismount to walk.
The material With which it is made is
called bunker, and II you care to turn
that word into concrete you have an
idea of what it is. like. 1t is exceeding
.ly hard and as smooth as n prepared
pavement. There is no dust. When
first got on this road and enjoyed the
luxury of, easy travelling. l said, 'This
is magnificent, but in a little time

Pact Salaries of Actors.

A number Of autograph letters Of
Edmund Kean supply some interesting
information about the salaries of actors
early in the nineteenth century. One
relates to an offer by Mr.. Ellison offer
ing Kean IS a week as acting man

street" Later this rose to f25 month.
In 1926 Kcan was offered $4,000 a
year to go to America. In the prime
of his popularity he received 1900 for
n week in Edinburgh and apparently
reached the highest point when Mr..
Bum wrote from the Theater Royal,

him ESQ night to play in Dublin and

A Raldheaded Renly.

A naval officer, very well and favor
ably known in London, has for some
unknown reason been advanced in his
profession very slowly, though he has
grown gray in the service and indeed
lamentably bald. Recently one of his
juniors was bold enough to question
him as to his remarkable absence of
hair.
"How comes it that you are SO very
bald|
The officer replied promptly and with
much vindictiveness:
"You, man, YOU would be bald, l

HIS SYMPATHY.
It Would Have Been. Worth More Only
He Lacked Presence of Mind

TIC Lacked PRESENCE OF Mind.
In the criminal court in Baltimore a
darby was on trial for stealing n
watch. which he had pawned. He was
identified by the owner as the person
who grabbed the watch out of his pock-
ct, yet the darby claimed to be inno-
cent. When asked how he came in
possession of the watch lie said:
II was standing on the corner when
Il man comes up to me and says he is
hard up and hasn't cent to buy food
with, and he wants to sell me this
watch for So. l knew could get 81 on
1t In pawn, and felt sorry for him
and bought the watch for SO and pawn
ed it for 81. That's how 1 got the
watch"
The prosecutor then asked, if he had
bought the watch for So, knowing he
could pawn 1t for 81, simply to help
the man along because he felt sorry for
him, why he did not advise. him to
pawn 1t himself, and then he would
have had 81 instead of SO.

Seems the SIGHTS.

Even in these days of liberal educa-
ton the young women sometimes show
how confused are the ideas shut up III
their heads. Illustrative of this is the
native blunder which Edmondo de
Amicis recounts in his story of a voy-
age from Genoa to Buenos Ayres:
The captain of the steamer which
numbered the charming young blum
derer among its passengers met her
one morning and said:
"Signorina, we cross the tropic OF
cancer today"
"Oh, indeed!" she cried with enthu-
siasm. "Then we shall see something
at last"
