The Musical Lawn Mower.

IA New Jersey man has invented an at.
tachment to a lawn mower which will
produce music while the grass is being
cut.-News Motel
Oh. give back the days of the old fash
Toned clatter,
When, at the first peep of the dawn,
Your neighbor-you called him as mad as
a halter
Went moving his long whiskered lawn!
For now he's improved" it with themes
operate
That complicate matters anew,
And the language you hurl is both loud
and emphatic
AS the tunes Of the moving reach YOU.
He begins with scene from some stand
by from Verdi
Which browns out the click OF the
blades,
And he turns on bit from old scar
men," 30 sturdy.
When he trims off the terraces grades.
And you toss on your bed, and you curse
at Puccink
And you wish to see quartered and
drawn
This neighbor of yours who's 80 low down
and mean he
Makes music while moving the lawn.

FOUNDED ON MERCY.
Boston Judge Says That Is the Basis
of Divorce Law.

of Divorce Law.
'The divorce court is an institution
of civilization" according to Judge
Richardson of the superior court in
Boston. He was hearing the petition
Of wife who sought an injunction
against her husband from interfering
with her personal liberty pending di,
vorce proceedings, in which cruelty
was alleged.
Judge Richardson said: 1.-THE laws of
Massachusetts in respect to divorce
are founded on mercy-in large ma
jority of cases, as to practical results,
mercy to woman.
Those persons who talk much
against divorce and the divorce court
mistake, among other errors, the cause
for the consequence. Divorce is the
consequence of habitual drunkenness.
cruelty, desertion and other crimes
which are justiHable grounds for d.
vorce and not the cause of them.
'The divorce court is an institution
Of civilization. Barbarians are not
troubled by the laws delays or a
process Of court. They dispose Of
an undutiful spouse more summarily.
1t is only within the last half century,
and under government purely secular
that married women have had ade-
quate protection In respect to their
property or persons"

New Mail Catching Device.

Albert Hupp of Kansas City. Mo-,
has invented a device for catching mail
pouches and delivering them from
fast mail trains. The postoffice de-
partment has been experimenting with
various devices ! many years In the
hope of finding IN improvement over
the old system Of the iron arm extend
Ing from the door of the mail car to
tatch the pouches hung on crane at
the stations. Mr.. Hupp has invented
collapsible tube device for the mail
cars which, he says. has a capacity to
conduct several pouches at time
from the station to the mail car. 1t
delivers pouches into a receptacle
without stopping the trains. He is
trying to interest the railroads and the
postoff1ce department in the new in
vention.

Summer and Fall Seeding and
TOp-DreSSing.

Many farmers are finding it to their
advantage to seed down during the sum-
mer and fall, claiming that by so doing
they are apt toget much better catch"
than they do when they follow the usual
practice and seed down in the spring.
The same is true regarding top-dress-
ing grass land. Some of the most pro-
gressive farmers put on top-dressing i'm
mediately after haying, with perhaps a
small application of nitrate of soda the
following spring.
Ifyou will send your name and P. O..
address to Carroll s. Page, Hyde Park,
VT, he will send you free, postpaid, sew
eral formulas for mixing fertilizers es,
pecially adapted to top-dressing and fall
seeding, together with prices of ingredi-
tents, full directions for mixing, etc.
These formulas have been approved by
the Vermont Experiment Station and
will be found thoroughly reliable.

Saws That Melt Steel,

The largest friction saws in the
world are used in one of Chicago's
huge construction plants. They cut
through ten inch steel l beam in
fourteen seconds. These saws or disks
are so made that they generate enough
heat at the point of contact to literally
melt their way through the metal be-
ing cut. The cutting edge Of the disks
is roughened by simply hacking with a
fish tail chisel.

ENGLAND'S FEAR OF WAR.
Even Children Drill In Parks In Play
Says General Hawkins.

General Rush c. Hawkins. U. s. A.,
retired, who recently returned to New
York from visit abroad. visited Eng.
land and Germany.
'"There are evidences of a war scare
In England" he said. "The most re.
markable one Is the sight of children
playing at being soldiers In the parks.
Their play is war game, and the
youngsters drill in the parks and
charge fancied enemies.
Germany has no more intention OF
going to war than we have. but it Is
hard to convince the average English
man of that fact"

and he lay about 100 rods from the
Perkins house and less than so rods
from the house where his wife and little
children were anxiously awaiting the
news of his capture, for early Wednesday
morning Sheriff Winch had given his
orders to capture the man either dead or
alive and to take no chances on his
escape.
States Attorney Simonds was one of
the first to learn of the finding of Pascal
and he telephoned Sheriff Winch and
Deputy Sheriff Hartman, WHO had gone
to their respective homes over Sunday to
get much-needed rest, as both of the
officers had been searching night and
day and covering the entire section in
the sheriff's automobile Mr.. Simonds
had spent the whole week at the scene of
the murder, gathering testimony for an
anticipated trial and helping the officers
in their search. The autopsy was held
Sunday night by the selectmen of the
towns of Walden and Cabot and Pascars
funeral was held on Monday. BY ending
his own life Pascal rang down the
curtain on one of the real tragedies in
our country life and one whose memory
will always be shuddering nightmare.
AS the story indicates all the Perkins
family showed that they never lost their
presence ofmind in the awful occurrences
that followed the murder, and Sheriff
Winch and the other officers deserve
great praise for their persistent and tire
less pursuit of the murderer.
Charles Perkins was highly respected
citizen of Walden, 70 years of age, and
was born in the house where he was
killed. In his younger days he was a
teacher and later was town superintend-
ent under the old school system. Besides
his wife he leaves three sons and several
grandchildren. The funeral was held at
his late home Friday afternoon at l
o'clock and was largely attended
Joseph Pascal was about 40 years old
and man of bad reputation His fond
ness for liquor was known to all and
when under its influence he was danger
Gus man. Once he assaulted Tom
O'Brien of Walden with a pair of tongs
and he had been in Jail several times for
misdemeanors when under the influence
of liquor. He had a bad reputation in
Littleton where his father lives, and
when intoxicated had frequently beaten
his wife. Pascal left a wife and eight
children. Four of them lived with
parents, three are living out, and one is
married and lives at East Hardwick. He
also leaves two sisters, one living in
Marshheld and another in Littleton.

Tribute to Veterans.

At Winfield, Kan, recently, Billy"
Sunday, the evangelist, delivered a
striking address on the old veterans,
which began in this eloquent fashion:
Every town is. or should be, proud
nants of blue. l consider a town un-
fortunate if it hasn't within its citizen
ship evidences of the war to teach and
inspire the children for bravery, valor
and honor, for the memory of the de-
tenders of their Nation, and when !
look at you-when / think, men, that
you are going up against the one, in
evitable, invisible enemy, Death, and
he doesn't fight fair. He uses smoke
less powder, and fights from behind
ambush. If he would come out into
the clear, you could give him a mag
nificent run for his money. But you
lose out. They are going down, $50
day, and they face his guns, 1000 vet
Grams a week, and $4,000 of them
year are missing when the Encamp-
ment rolls around. and want to say
to you people, honor their memory. 1t
won't be long that they will walk your
streets. There are many people here
tonight who will live to see the day
when there will not be veteran of the
meath the sod. 1t is hard for them, it
is hard for us. to realize that nearly SO
years have rolled away since you went
to war. Some of you are gray and bald
this evening, but you are young in
heart, for time is measured by heart
beats, not by the hands on the dial of
the clock or the watch, and wonderful
things have happened since you men
went to the war and came back"

WASHINGTON

quite get used to or truly admire, not even
| if she be ever SO pretty and graceful in
| the act. Imagine the excitement it would
occasion in the country if 1T were Srii-
mored that Mrs. Taft smoked. And yet
we are told that Carmen Silva, the good
Queen of Roumania. almost always smokes;
when engaged in her literary work, that
the mother of the Queen of Spain does not
confine herself to cigarets but also enjoys
a good cigar as well as any masculine
smoker, while the mother of young King
Manuel, of Portugal, is said to indulge
more than ever in this habit since the
murder of her husband and heir. In fact
almost the only woman of royal blood who
has taken a decided stand against women
smoking is the Empress of Germany. who
is thought somewhat severe in her views
of propriety by certain class OF her
subjects.
AS everybody knows, Massachusetts,
is full of well-educated, eye-glassed
spinsters, who have never had half
chance at matrimony on account of
there not being nearly enough men to
go around in that over-femininiZed
States. Large numbers of these women
are self-supporting, and many more
would be if they could find remunera-
tive occupation. A number of promi-
have lately interested themselves in
this condition, and have formed an or
ganization to provide means of support
for this army of women who can never
hope to be wives. They have solicited
State aid in the purchasing of small
tracts of land near large cities. which
they propose to cut up into acre lots.
and then encourage this class of women
to engage in market gardening or the
raising of chickens, pigs, etc. 1t is their
idea to build cheap but comfortable
houses, barns and outhouses on these
lots, and to furnish the necessary inn
plements for farming. This seems to be
a splendid solution of the spinster prob
lem, and it is hoped that the scheme
will go thru. One wealthy New York
woman is so interested in it that she
has announced her intention of putting
from 5000, 900 to 100000 into the prof.
ect. When woman gets into the late
30's and is not married there is likely
to come period of depression which
either sends her into nervous retreat
or means years of unhappiness to her,
her family and friends. If there is little
or no money, this unhappy condition is
greatly intensified. What could cure or
prevent this so successfully as an occu-
patton which forced her to live most of
the time out of doors and compelled at
tention to growing things? What wo-
man could be very unhappy who was
making even a very modest support out
Of nice little farm?

In Honor of the Flag.

Capt. E. j. Coke deserves grateful
recognition by the people of the Unit
ed States. He was in a hotel in Sacra-
mento when William B. Haywood. Pres
ident of the Western Federation of Min
ers. and Press Agent A. Meyer came
along. Meyer wore a red flag In his
buttonhole, and remarked that he hoped
to live to see that emblem wave above
the Stars and Stripes. Coke immediate
ly resented this, and threatened to break
Meyers neck, when Haywood Clipped
in with an announcement of who he
was. Coke replied by informing him
that unless he and Meyer ate their
words he would break their faces. Both
made apologies, which satisfied the Cap
tain, and left the hotel. Capt. Coke
served in the Spanish War, and is a son
of Maj. Raleigh Coke.
