JEFFERsoMs PICTURES.
A Wonderful Landscape Painted En-
tireIy From Imagination.

GlEStI GT0FH lHd9iAG1lOhs So =.
Marvellous were the products of JEFF
ferson's inspiration. He had created
a school of his own. He was prone to
portray forest scenes, with tree trunks
Of wonderful size, in accurate military
formation. Old mills were a favorite
subject with him, especially old mills
with water wheels, and in some Of his
paintings he actually accomplished the
impossible, for to all intents and pur-
poses he succeeded4n making the wa
ter run uphill. This having been called
to his attention by an oVercritieal
friend, Mr.. jefferson responded that he
was well pleased with the result. for
''few men could have accomplished
it."
When president OF the Players club.
a position he held for SO many years
before his death. Mr.. Jefferson pre-
scented tt the club a large canvas OF
his own. If the writer remembers cor
rectly, there was a pond in the fore
ground. with rushes. a tumbledown
house and a large and rather theat-
| rical looking forest, all painted, the
artist boosted, in the dead Of winter
in his own sitting DON and entirely
from his imagination. When 1t was
first displayed on the walls-for Of
course none OF the old gentleman's
gifts was ever refused-it attracted
much attention. and n day Mr.. JEFF
ferson. being in the club. seized a
brother member. who happened to be
a man whose pictures had on more
than one occasion won prizes in the
salon. and stood him before his W
masterpiece. Now, | want you to tell
me-" he said frankly. with his child
like and delightful smile. what you
think of it."
"Well," replied the painter, respond
ing t. the pressure on his arm, I'D
like to have one hung as well as that"
And the old gentleman vas delighted.
During his lifetime that picture re-
NAMED in its prominent position, and
| whenever Mr.. Jefferson entered the
club he would manage TO maneuver
himself in front of it. regarding it
from all sides and angles. and hardly
ever did a picture receive so much
praise and so little criticism as that
marvellous landscape. = James Barnes

The engineers, in surveying
Third Avenue for the cement
walks, have taken several feet
off Tom PAGES front yard, in
GLIDING his well. Mr.. Pace says
he does not object to the cement
walks, which are well enough in
their way, but he hates to part
with his well. He says the well
is very we'll where it is, answers
well his needs, and is in favor of
leaving well enough alone, there
by disturbing neither his well nor
his welfare.

delicious Glngerbread.

Children are great lovers of ginge~
bread, and grown folks, too, if it is Of
the rich 'melt-in-the-mouth" kind. The
following recipe by the famous Mrs.
Mary J. Lincoln, is commended to those
who delight in this delicacy:
Mix two cups flour, one-half level
teaspoon salt, n level teaspoon soda,
cup moIasses, two tablespoons s~oftened
Cotto1ene and One-half cup boiling
water. Bake in shallow pan. If for des-
cream, favored with lemon.
The little ones can eat this freely
Lard is indigestible, but Cottolene, The
perfect shortening, makes food that
agrees with the most delicate stornachs.

Clever Packing of Trunk Will
Keep the Clothes Fresh

A slight knowledge OF packing will help
though they may be often put into
trunk. 1t is literally wearing 10 frocks TO
mash them down time after time when go
ing away TO make short visits in the sum
mer. A large quantity OF tissue paper may
be regarded as a good investment The
more sleeves and waists can be stuffed
to hold their original shape the less will
they be crushed and at all cost one must
avoid frook being so placed that 1t will
be mashed down flat. When this happens
such sharp creases are made that only
ironing by a professional will freshen Il.
1t is a mistake to think that a trunk
should be loosely packed; on the contrary
the tighter everything can be placed in II
the less likely are articles 10 be shifted
when the trunk Is thrown from car to plat
form and hurled upon wagons. Unless one
has a trunk 80 built as 70 stand on
end always It does not matter In what
section the heavy articles are placed, for
what is the top at one time will be the
bottom at another.
Bags Of silk linen just large enough TO
hold a pair OF shoes or slippers simplify
packing, for stockings to match the pair
can be put In with them, and there is less

Before putting in a dress it should be laid

Ye Editor would like to call
prayerful consideration TO the
fact that the votes in Douglas
county have just been care
fully recounted, in response to
a demand based on charges
that extensive fraud had been
committed In the original
count. The outcome of the
second count did not ma
terially affect the result, as
first announced.
Just remember this, when
next you hear Omaha poll
tioians charged with all sorts
of crookedness. The Omaha
voter Is as honest in purpose
as any, and the machinery for
collecting and counting the
ballots is as carefully watched
here as anywhere in the cOun-
try.
Omaha folks may not always
vote the way they ought to.
but they vote honestly and
count honestly.
