MEDAL FOR LA FARCE.
It Comes Too Late, Says Artist, in Ac
 cepting It From Architects.
From the New York Times.

From the New York Times.
 John La Farge, the artist, noted for his mural paintings, figuratively set off a bomb in the midst of 200 or more paint CTS, sculptors, architects, and others last night at a dinner of the Architectural league of New York, held in the Ameri- can Fine Arts building. MT. La Farge has just received a medal of honor from the Architectural league.
 The leagues president, c. Grant La Farge, son of John La Farge, had hand ed his father in behalf of the league the medal for the best mural paintings which had come to the attention of the league fin five years.
 MT. La Farge took the certificate &C., companying the medal of honor, and for a moment stood regarding it thoughtful- ly. Then he looked up and began to speak.
 "This recognition from the architects, <" began MT. La Farge, "comes very late in life. Perhaps I have only three or four years more left to me in which to live and work. A friend once came to me and told me I would never get a dollar's worth of work from a great firm of archi- tects in this city"
 Here Mr La Farge paused as though debating whether he should name the firm. Then he went on:
 That firm was the great firm of Mo Kim Meade & Whitee. And for 22 years McKim, Meade & White never gave me any work I don't know why. Perhaps there was a business reason. But I could not see a reason why they should try to prevent man from earning a living. especially in the name of art''
 MT. La Farge, paused again, and the guests held their breaths, wondering what was coming next.
 Consequently, I receive this recognition from the architects late in life, when it Is useless to me as help to live with, '' continued the artist. And I accept it with some reticence of thanks. I take Ii as a meaning that I shall be able to continue in my errors. It is gratifying t
 have 1t presented by my son."

When your stomach is weak or lacking in gastric juice anything that you eat, no difference what it is, will sour on your stomach, raise the bile and acids to cover your food like oil water, causing in- digestion, dyspepsia stomach nervousness and belching of sour poisons, which pro- duce foul odors, nasty taste, bilious head ache heartburn, intestinal griping and make you an object of misery. This is stomach trouble which can not be over come with ordinary digestive medicines. It Is caused by fermentation of your food, which will be remedied at once by Pape's Diapepsin, a preparation pleasant to take and as harmless as candy, though it will digest and prepare for assimilation into the blood all the food you eat.
 Indigestion Is a result, not cause. of your trouble If the stomach is sour and unhealthy, your food becomes taint- sd, and that's what is causing the indi-

Hats Are Becoming Smaller.

From the Delineator.
 Toques have gained ground with re- markable rapidity and are quite pushing out the larger hats. Besides the Magyar toque and the busby there is a new Direc- toire turban of cloth or velvet. It looks as if a piece of folded cloth had been tied around the head in single knot right in the middle of her forehead" The ends

 His father leaned across the table l with tension in every line of him.
 'Go onp' he said anxiously, and AL merle looked up at him with a silly smile.
 Didn't stop with her, though"
 "Why not?" demanded the earl an- grily.
 "A sort of man in the village got me to look at bull terrier pup" Almertc went on, with a yawn. Wonderful little beast for points. Jolly luck, isn't it? He has got a head on him"-
 Hawcastle interrupted savagely.
 "We'H concede his tremendous ad- vantage over you in that respect" he said and threw the cigar he had just lighted into the coffee cup.
 ''Is that all you have to tell usT' tmplored the countess, with a dra- matic gesture. leaning forward. AL merle looked up with surprise.
 "Oh, no!'' he said. "She accepted me" !"
 The earl dropped into chair with a sigh of relief, and the countess clasped her hands costa tically.
 "Enfin! Brava. And will she let it be soonT
 Again Almeric stif1ed yawn.

 From the countess came a gasp of astonishment.

 "Not for Almeric, but to be the Countess of Hawcastle. My ancient sister-in-law hasn't been her chaperon for a year for nothing. And, by love, she hasn't done it for nothing, either!"

Plants and Flowers Housed Plants
Also Suffer From Consumption

Consumption among plants and
flowers Is more common than the
same disease is among people. The
white plague in a geranium is a
common sight to the eye of the
bottanist. Potted plants are the
prime sufferers, just as housed
people are white plague prey more
than other people.
By microscopical examination Of
cells of a healthful plant and a
sick one 1t is readily seen that
there Is serious functional de-
rangement among the cells of a
diseased stem. In a healthful
stem the cells are arranged with
certain symmetry, and each cell
has pit or nuclei in the center.
This center Is about the same as
the yolk of an egg. These nuclei
permit new cells being formed,
and growth becomes possible by
this process. A cell without the
nuclei would no more permit
growth than an egg without the
yellow would hatch.
The diseased tissue has no def

are jumbled, elongated, collapsed
and without nuclei. They are
diseased. The stem with such
cells bears sickly, dropping, yell
lowish leaves. The flowers are
small, pale, and the petals soon
drop away. White plague is at
work in the vitals of such a plant.
1t needs medicine.
The doctor prescribes iron for
our pale people, for iron makes
rich blood and color; so with the
plant, it needs rich blood. Try to
doctor the plant with iron. Push
down into the soil among the
plant roots few old rusty nails.
If it Is iron the plant wanted,
within a week the leaves will
show a much greener hue. Health
will return, and the consumptive

WHO WINS?
Hey. fans?


Here's a conundrum in
teresting enough to make you
talk.
Suppose a pitcher has
worked for eight innings,
during which time the enemy
secures three runs, because
the defense accumulates err
rors of omission and commits
sion, and his team has one
run.
In the eighth the pitcher is
taken out to let a good hitter
bat. The pinch hitter fails to
deliver.
In the ninth another pitcher
retires the enemy without a
run and his team then starts
a batting rally. When 1t is
pitchers turn at bat he is re-
placed by a pinch hitter, the
score being to 2, with men
on all the sacks. The pinch
hitter doubles, scoring two
men.
Who gets credit for win
ming the game?
Remember the first pitcher
went along for eight innings.
The second worked one I'm
ming and was out of the game
when the winning run was
scored.
Think 1t over.
