SEA AND LAND.
The Way They Meet and Clash and
Finally Harmonize.


In "The Wonderful Adventures of
Mis-" translated from the Swedish of
Selma Lagerlof by velma Swanston
Howard. is the following pretty de-
scription of how sea and land meet:
You see that sea and land can meet
In many different ways. In many
the sea with fiat, tufted meadows and
the sea meets the land with flying
sand, which piles up In mounds and
drifts. 1t appears as though they both
disliked each other so much that they
only wished TO show the poorest they
possessed. But It can also happen
that when the land comes toward the
sea 1t raises wall of hills In front of
1t. as though the sea were something
dangerous. When the land does this,
the sea comes up to 1t with fiery wrath
and beats and roars and lashes against
the rocks and looks as If 1t would tear
the land hill to pieces.
But in Bleklnge 1t is altogether differ
ent when sea and land meet. There
the land breaks itself up into points
and Islands and islets, and the sea di-
vides itself into fiords and bays and
sounds, and it is perhaps this which
makes 1t look as IL they must meet in
happiness and harmony.
Think now first and foremost of the
sea! Far out it lies desolate and emp
tv and big and has nothing else to do
but to roll Its gray pillows. When it
comes toward the land 1t happens
across the first obstacle. This 1t imme-
dlately overpowers, tears away every
thing green and makes 1t as gray as
itself. Then 1t meets still another
obstacle. With this 1t does the same
thing. And still another-yes, the
same thing happens to this also. 1t is
stripped and plundered as IL 1t had
fallen into robbers hands. Then the
obstacles come nearer and nearer to-
gether, and then the sea must under
stand that the land sends toward 1t
her littlest children in order to move 1t
to pity. 1t also becomes more friendly
the farther In 1t comes, rolls Its waves
less high, moderates Its storms lets
the green things stay in cracks and
crevices, separates itself into small
sounds and inlets and becomes at last
so harmless In the land that little
boats dare venture out upon 1t. 1t GER
tainly cannot recognize itself, so mild
and friendly has 1t grown.

Tho Art of Saint eaudsns.

His angels and caryatids are not clas-
sical goddesses, but modern women,
lovely, but with personal and par
t'cular loveliness, not insisted upon,
but dellcately suggested And it is
not the personality Of the model who
chanced to pose for them, but an in
vented personality, the expression of
the nobility, the sweetness and the
pure mindedness Of their creator. And
In such a figure as that of the Adams
memorial In Rock Creek cemetery In
Washington his imaginative power
reaches to degree Of impressiveness
almost unequaled in modern art. One
knows oe nothing since the tombs Of
the Medici that fills one with the same
hushed awe as this shrouded, hooded,
deeply brooding figure, rigid with con-
temptation, still with an eternal still
ness, her soul rapt from her body on
some distant quest. Is she Nirvana? +?
Is she the peace Of God? She has
been given many names. Her maker
would give her none. Her meaning
is mystery. She IL the everlasting
enigma.-Kenyon Cox in Atlantic.

COSTLY MATTRESSES.
The Kind That Are Used on the Big
Plate Glass Wagons.

Probably about as costly a sort of
not to sleep on at all, but to spread
on the long, broad table or platform Of
the wagons built for carrying plate
glass
These mattresses, which are made of
curled hair, are very thin, scarcely
thicker than a comfortable, and must
be made with the greatest care to In
sure perfect uniformity of thickness.
A lump anywhere would be likely to
break the plate of glass resting upon
1t, and there would be still greater
danger II the weight of two plates of
glass was rested on the lump at once.
A mattress for plate glass wagon
costs, according to size, from $50 to
SIS. In use the corners of smaller
plates carried ON 1t cut into the tick
ing covering, and sooner or later 1t has
to be made over. Simply to make over
such mattress costs from $40 to $25.
On the table topped and mattress
covered glass wagons the biggest
plates are carried with confidence and
safety The table is built to remain
absolutely rigid, and the thin but uni
form mattress protects the plate from
jar
Before plate glass store fronts had
come into common use, when the han
ding of big plate was counted as a
good deal more of n job than 1t is now,
they used to carry great pane Of
glass In a sort Of frame, which was
put on the wagon with the glass In 1t.
At its destination this frame or sup
port was worked carefully across the
sidewalk to the store front, where the
glass was disodged from 1t to be set,
and altogether the setting of a great
plate of glass was then quite an I'M
dertaking.
Now, with the setting Of such plates
common daily occurrence and with
men skilled in the handling of them,
they simply carry big plate out and
lay 1t on their mattress covered table
topped wagon and carry 1t to where
1t is to 60 and there slide it off, to rest
1t for moment on blocks on the side
walk, and then they pick 1t up and
carry 1t to the window front.
Then they run under the lower edge
of the glass lifting straps, by which
men standing inside the window as
well as men standing outside can lift
on 1t when the glass Is put into place
In the window frame. There again 1t
is raised on blocks until the straps can
be withdrawn, and then the blocks are
taken out and the glass secured in
place, all this being done with great
care, but still with comparative ease
and quickness and with certainty, and
in these times great panes of glass
are thus moved and set on all but the
windiest ys.-Cleveland Plain Dealer

The Boy Meant Well, but Carried His

The proprietor of one of New York's
fashionable hotels was talking about
the crush that restaurants experience
on New Years eve, Washington's
birthday and other holidays. "But

luck. A grocer in my boyhood told
me that. The grocer said that he had
once engaged new boy and had ex-
horted this boy always to give custom
ers the impression that they were very
busy.

not, say we are busy the grocer said.

parture the grocer said to the boy:

HOLLAND MUSTARD.
Some of the Virtues Aseribed to II and
One Way to Make It.

Hollanders use enormous quantities
of mustard and thrive on the condi-
ment. There is a small spot in Overys-

land slopes gently down to the river

confection 1t is butter, cheese and

afford 1t. And there is no other place
Oh earth where that mustard can be
bought.
You might ask. why do the Hol
landers eat so much mustard?" The
answer is: The Holland mustard is Il

Here is one Dutch method of pre-
