mobiles.

Students of natural history who
have not been accustomed to look on
the gander as a bird of prey may pro-
fit by study of the statistics relating
to one owned by Tommy Boomer, of
Vreeland avenue, Nutley, N. ].
According to complication Of
data made yesterday Tommy's gander
has won decisions over book agents,
insurance solicitors, bull terriers and
automobiles. 1t is believed to be the
only gander in all of Nutley, N. J.,
capable Of running down an automo-
bile and picking pieces out of rear
tire with its bill without lessening
its terrific speed Most common gan
ders on their trial trips seldom aver
age more than half knot an hour.
Tommy Boomers terrible gander,
having overcome half-grown terrier
in preliminary fight, has grown in
prestige by defeating all the dogs in
the neighborhood, and within a week
has chased from the Boomer premises

fectly willing to write an insurance
policy on anything from life to the
glass in the kitchen door.
James Boomer, father of Tommy,
thinks a survey of the past perform

land avenue will convince. anybody
that if the fowl would only go into

Dutch Architecture.

The architecture of Holland could
be summed up in the one word hon.
est. Pretence is altogether lacking,
but to many people that is far from
being fault. The influence of Ger
many~has been greatly felt, owing, of
course, to the close proximity of that
country. The French feeling has also
found its way into the Netherlands
for the same reason; but the Italian
influence has rarely been known, and
its absence is always to be depre-
Gated
The Dutch are neat, thrifty pec-
pie, and their houses express to a
marked degree many of their traits.
In the cities and small towns, for In
stance, the trim rows of private
dwellings are particularly attractive.
though built primarily for comfort
and devoid of much adornment.
While Dutch house exteriors may
not invariably please the eye, it must
be remembered that the Hollanders
have greatly atoned for their lack of
artistic feeling here by a splendid
sense of interior decorating. Wit
ness. for instance, their passion for
delft, porcelain and other ceramics,
and the uses to which they have put
them in their schemes for interiors.
They cannot, then, be called a
wholly inartistic people Their homes,
on the contrary, are worthy OF the
closest study. and the duplication Of
Dutch house, inside and out. should
prove fascinating idea. Dutch
kitchen, for example, is always de-
lightful; and the same feeling carried
through the entire house would make
something rarely distinctive In this
country ~ elineator.
