the manner OF their presentment. The
booths containing the products OF the
coast states, especially, are artistic in
every respect. They are built at home,

highly finished. Every large column and
every small post is hollow with glass
sides, and is filled with grain or fruits.
Glass jars, small and large. are used for
preserving the perishable products. with

itors to know that the fluid in these Jars
is pure water, with an infusion OF sui
phuric acid. The magnifying effect Is
striking, particularly as to the fruits and
flowers.

One New York lawyer got his real start
in a curious way. He promoted ceme-
tery. On a trip in the suburbs he dis
covered some land that could be bought
at very low figure. Somehow, the law
yer never knew just how, the idea OF
cemetery and It's financial possibilities
flashed ACROSS him. He got options and
started in to scrape together capital.
II was astonishing to him TO see how
easily and quickly he could do it, for
his plan had looked. as he had 1t on
paper, too good to be true. 1t showed
land sold steadily and surely at the rate
Of from $4,000 an acre up when 1t had cost
but few hundred.
This lawyer is one OF fortunate few
in New York who within the last twenty
years have found cemeteries a profitable
form Of real estate investment. Nearly
100 cemeteries in which any one may buy
lot are within easy distance Of the city,
and probably all have a fairly good
patronage. The demand for their ground
goes on steadily.

familiar with New York's cemeteries,

Looking on cemeteries just as a busl-

big opposition, a host of competitors; but
the demand is so great that 1t sweeps
this all away. Roughly speaking, more
than 1900 people are now dying in New
York each year Nearly all are buried
close TO the city. Twenty thousand went
In one single cemetery last year. Close
to a million lie there now and another
cemetery has record Of practically half
million.
"Of course many of the cemeteries OF
New York are not speculations in any

In several states, notably in New
Jersey and Connecticut, experiment
stations have been established for
trying out labor-saving machines of
all sorts, and testing. various food
preparations. Hundreds of inven-
tions have been patented for tighten
ing the labor of dish washing, clean
ing, cooking, etc., but only few are
adequate for the demands made up
Ion them, or are built on a scale that
fits them for average homes. Many
labor-saving machines are so large
and expensive that they are suited
only for hotels and clubs, where they
have long been installed, others are

as "The Rossum Hunt Club" and
they are seated at tables on the lawn
