Horse Brings Big Price.
At an auction here the Clydesdale
stallion, Baron of Buchlyvie, was sold
for $47,500, the largest price ever re-
ceived for a draft horse, and. for a
horse in his 18th year, the sum has
few precedents even among thorough
breds. The best previous price ever
received for a Clydesda1e was $4,000,
paid some twenty years ago for the
2-year-Old colt Prince of Albion.
Cook Is Overlooked.
Although most of England's heroes
are represented in the capital of the
empire by memorials of various sorts,
the famous explorer, Captain James
Cook, who lost his life in the Hawaiian
islands, is not numbered among them,
but this oversight will soon be cor
rected by society which plans to
erect a Iife-size statue on the Mall to
the great circumnavigatOr.
The plan originated with Sir James
Carruthers, a former prime minister of
New South Wales. on a recent visit
to London he was surprised that there
was no statue here to the man who
NNas responsible in a large measure for
the addition of the antipOdean terri
tories to the British empire He di-
rected public attention to the oversight
and the agitation resulted in the APP
pointment of a committee with Post
master General Samuel at its head to
provide a suitable memorial. King
George v, at that time Prince of
Wales. accepted the presidency of the
society for the erection of the statue
and although his elevation to the
throne has caused him to withdraw
from office in it, he continues to give
the movement his heartiest support
The government offered its aid
through the medium of the board of
works, which provided an admirable
site for the statue on the Mall side of
The new Admiralty arch. The design
and execution of the statue, which will
De unveiled some time next year, has
been entrusted to Sir Thomas Brock.

I dislike that vacant space on the wall

somewhere IN the kitchen closet"
Don't you know? Somewhere IS
rather indefinite. dear"
Il always let Norah attend to such
things. Jack"
well. where's Norah?"
It's her evening out, so we can't ask
her Wen have to look for them our
selves"
where shall I look?"
Maybe they are somewhere on tho
floor. Look in those boxes If you don't
find them on the shelves"

What did you say. Jack?"

TRADE OUTLOOK GOOD
Year Opens With Pronounced In
crease in Business.

New York. Jan. e.-R. G. Dun & Co s
Weekly Review of Trade says:
The year opens with a. pronounced
increase in business confidence based on
the Improvement during the past three
months, especially in iron and steel,
copper and dry goods; and there is a
growing belief that the new year will
prove better as to the volume of bust
ness transacted than 1911, though this
optimism is tempered by much conserv-
atism and there is no disposition to ex-
pand unduly.
The increased operations and larger
working forces feature the opening
year in iron and steel. Some plants
that were closed entirely or on only
part time are resuming actively again
and the leading interest is now run
ming at about 81 per cent of capacity.
A reduction on printed shirtings of &c
a yard was announced in the primary
markets. but there is a firmer tenden-
CIV in drills, sheetings and heavy color
ed goods. Export trade in cotton goods
opens auspiciously. Trade in woolens
is rather quiet
Leather is quiet. but generally firm.
Hides show some Improvement. There
is a fair amount of business on the
books of the New England shoe fac
tories.

AS IT Is.
Where's the hammer and tacks
! Mabel? I'll fix that picture you've been
fussing about so long while I think OF
it,"
Somewhere in the kitchen closet,
guess
You guess. Don't you know p
mo, I don't KNOW"
Where's Norah. Perhaps she'll
know"
Its her evening out"
We'll, I can't find them in this clos
ct"
Look on the floor. They may be
there if they aren't on the shelves"
mo, they're not here either, Ugh!
DIN!
what did you say?"
"Oh, nothingi Only whacked my
head poking around on the floor"
Pity you can't see when anything's
IN the way. And don't think 1 didn't
hear you swear"
I don't care if you did. It's pity
you don't have a place for things and
keep them where they belong.~
That's Norah business
How can you expect a servant to
have any system, if the mistress does
n't?"
That's right; blame me. 1 suppose
its my fault you bumped your head 20
1t certainly is. If you had things
where they belong, a fellow wouldn't
bang himself all up trying to find
them"
You might as well find fault with
that as with anything else"
I thought you We're so anxious to
have that picture fixed. Haven't you
any idea where that hammer is2'
Il told you NO"
Nor the tacks? Perhaps I can use
a hoo Of -1~.-
the tacks''
Look under the sink. Norah some
times puts things there
Pshawl Nothing here but rubbish.
It's shame to have such catch-all
as this 1t can't be very sanitary, to
say tho least"
well, stop fussing and wait until
Norah comes home! then ask her.
IF you think I'm going to sit up
all night to ask Norah about pack
age of tacks, you're mistaken"
DO as you please
Whats the matter with you, Ma
bel2 Can't you keep house like other
people, My mother used to say she
could lind anything she wanted In
the dark because she always had a
place for everything and always kept
everything in place.
Il was waiting to hear something
like that. You usually wind up by
comparing me to your mother and al
ways to my Disadvantage
You have been Raging me about
this picture for days and when I'm
ready to fix it you don't know where
anything is. why don't YOU try to
have little more system about
things ?"
Il don't interfere with the way you
run your office"
No. thank goodness. 7 would soon
be without an office if you did,
well, don't interfere with the
house"
Cant you think Of some place
where these tacks might be2"
mo, I haven't the slightest idea. |
So come up stairs and stop fussing'' /
II think if you would try mothers |
plan of a place for things. it would |
be much better for all concerned"

letter from Mrs Robert J. Bear, of
Washington, telling how well the en-
reimbursement of women in that state
is working out thus far. She says that
the women are taking a lively interest
in public affairs, and that a very large
per cent of them will use their newly
won privileges of the ballot. She also
says that the old theory that men
would have less consideration for the
emancipated woman, is disproved by
the experience of the women of Wash

suffragist in our fight in New York

concentrated than in any other place with
