BRUNETTE is MONEY SEEKER
Prof. Lanzendorf Makes Startling AS
sertions About Differences Be-

Berlin-Professo L,anzendorf Of
Vienna has bobbed into the limelight
this week with certain startling as

light-haired and dark-haired people.
He has apparently taken up I'm earn

grief that dark-haired people are get

Thousand Island Park, N. Y.-The
marriage of Miss Lots Baldwin of At
lantic City and George Roqovoy, a
Russian violinist, at the Methodist
Episcopal parsonage here by the Rev.
E. ]. LAWS, ends a romance covering
a period Of seven years.
The bride is a granddaughter of Ma
jor Herbrich of Heidelberg, Germany,
who died recently and left her sole
heiress to large estate. A few weeks
ago she received $4,000 from the es-
tate of her mother. She first met Ro-
qovoy In Berlin in 1903, and the two
became engaged. Both were then I'M
der eighteen. Miss Baldwins parents
objected to the match and brought her
back to America. Three years later
she returned to Europe and tried to
find her lover, but was unsuccessful,
and did not meet him again until re-

eventually rust or break off and will
thus injure the looks of the post. On
the other hand, holes through the
posts weaken them, and therefore this
method is, in general, unsatisfactory.
The simplest, easiest, and cheapest
way of fastening a wire fence to a
concrete post is by encircling the post
with wire one size less than the
corresponding wire in the fence prop
er and by twisting this wire around
the strand Of the fence. This is done
in two ways. The fastening wire is
placed around the post, twisted upon
itself and then to the fence wire; or
one end of the fastening wire is twist
ed around the fence wire, and the
free end is then carried around the
post and twisted on the other side to
the same wire. Either plan is good.
but care must be taken to draw the
fastening wire tight, or else stock
trying to get through the fence may
raise or crush down the fencing with
their heads. If any trouble is expe-
rienced the post should be roughened
at the fastening point with cold
chisel
Expansion and contraction of the
fence due to heat and cold are cared
for by the tension curves or kinks"
in the woVenwire fencing, and no fear
may be felt in drawing the fastening
wires as tight as necessary. Wooden
mailing strips should never be en-
bedded in the posts, for moisture will
swell the wood and crack the con-
crete.

NaIIIA nf Manure

Professor Hopkins, of the Illinois
experiment station, says the average
moderately fresh cattle or horse ma
nure, made from clover and timothy
hay and some grain, with sufficient
straw bedding to absorb and retain
the liquid manure, will contain per
ton Of manure about 10 pounds Of
nitrogen, two pounds of phosphorus
and 10 pounds Of potassium, on the
basis of % per cent. Of dry matter.
Computed at the present market
values for these elements-15 cents
a pound for nitrogen, II cents for
phosphorus and cents for potassium
such manure is worth 1924.

General Arthur Felt Little Satisfac
tion in Occupying the White
House Because His Loved
Helpnate was Gone.

When Chester A. Arthur became
president of the United States his
first official residence was in the
Washington house of Senator John P.
Jones Of Nevada. This was due to
the fact that the White House had
to undergo q long period Of renoVa-
ton following President Garfeld's re-
moval thence to the seashore, and it
was not until late in the autumn Of
1881 that General Arthur was able to
take up his residence in the nations
home for it's presidents. In the mean
time he was provided with a suitable
roof through the thoughtfulness and
hospitality Of Senator Jones.
Il know that it was with no feeling
OF pride or exultation that Chester A.
Arthur finally entered the White
House as president" said General
Howard Carroll, a former member of
congress from New York City and for
years one of General Arthur's init
mate personal and political friends.
He was bowed dow2 with regret over
the Garfield tragedy, for one thing;
and then, Notwithstanding his politi-
cal activity, he was lonely man. His
little daughter was away at school,
his son was at college, and his wife
had been dead several years when he
was elected vice president.
General Arthur and his wife had
been much attached to each other;
their domestic relations were ideal.
Mrs. Arthur was a beautiful woman Of
many accomplishments, and size and
her husband had many tastes in COM
mon. Both were fond of music; Mrs.
Arthur had very charming and high
ly cultivated voice, which, had she
chosen a professional career for her
self, probably would have brought her
considerable fame. And both were
very fond Of literature. Although the
public did not know 1t, President Ar
thur was of scholarly attainments. He
was constant reader of the classics,
he spoke German very well, and he
read that language with facility.
"One morning about a week after
the president had moved into the
White House I had occasion to call
there. AS I was compelled to leave
for New York on a mid-forenoon train,
I timed my call so as to reach the
White House just after the president
had finished breakfast. But when I
asked for him his valet, Powell, told
me that the president was dressing.
] therefore sent word that I would
wait until he could receive me, but In
a few moments l was asked to go to
the presidents dressing room, and
there we conversed about the business
that had called me to the White
House.
while the talk was going on ]

Only One Man Now Living Can Tell
Name of Republican Who Persuad-
ed President Garfield to Make
Judge Robertson Collector.

There is probably only one man
now living who is able to give au-
thoritatiVely the name of the Repub-
lican who persuaded President Gar
field, in March, 1881, to nominate
Judge William H. Robertson collector
of the port of New York-a nomina-
ton that brought about the dramatic
joint resignation of Roscoe Conkling
and Thomas G. Plat from the United
States senate, and, in the opinion Of
as the Republican presidential nomi-
nee in 1884. The one man is J. Stan
ley Brown, who was private secretary
to President Garfield, and who mar
ried the presidents only daughter.
Mr.. Brown, however, will never tell,
unless posthumously. He regards him
self as under obligations to reveal
none of the secret history Of the Gar
field administration,
! have been asked many times who
it was that recommended to Garfield
the appointment of Judge Robertson,
and could only say that in Washing
ton. at the time the appointment was
made, no one was found, excepting
Mr.. Brown, who could answer the
question. Yet, it is probable that the
late John H. Starin, who was in con-
gress with Garfield and was a close
friend Of the latter, knew; and base

Window Garden.

cabbage, caulif1ower, eggplant and to-
sy. asters, petunias, nasturtiums and
other free Towering ANIMALS.
On the bottom shelf is a galvanized
pan, 6 inches deep. This is filed with
rich soil composed of leaf-mold and
highly fortified garden SOIL In this
the seeds are planted; the pot plants
are arranged upon the shelves.
The whole thing should be put to-
gether with some screws so that it
may be taken down and stored away
during the summer.
Select window for your garden
that can be ventilated without any
draught on the plants. One that is
absolutely alright.
Do not have the shelves too near
the glass, but allow space for shade
to be pulled down cold nights. When
it is very cold, place several thick
nesses of newspaper between the
shade and the window.
The soil used for potting should be
composed largely of leaf mould and
sand. If leaf mould cannot be used,
resort to rich garden loans, sand and
well-rotted manure, pulverized.
Pots, pans, baskets, boxes should
be provided with holes for drainage,
and layer of pebbles, stones, broken
crockery or cinders put in the pots,
ETC., over the drainage holes.
When a plant needs water, the only
safe way Is to water thoroughly when
the top soil is dusty and dry to the
touch.
Spray once a week, and sponge off
the leaves of the palms, rubber
plants and all the smooth leaves with
weak soap suds at least once month.
Be careful about the temperature,
and remember that plants can stand
a lower temperature with greater for
titude than a high one. The hot, dry
air in most homes is neither good for
human or flower life, therefore pro-
vide ventilation to give fresh air to
the home when cold weather comes.
A pan of water on the stove is an
easy way to provide moisture.

Two Officials Arrive From ireland Il

New York-Ffonan MacColum and

will be organized.
There is no connection between the
Gaelic league and any Of the political
movements in Ireland. With the
league, however, is associated q move

and temperance, both physically and
morally, and the betterment Of the
