FORCED INTO ODD 0
Idea Of Revolutionary Veteran That
Has Made Hawthorn Trees a
rerltable Curiosity.

In lis Hancock street, Cam
bridgeport, near where Center street
enters, stand two hawthorn trees.
They were planted ninety years ago
by John Michael Duhig, the late
owner of the house at No. lis. Mr..
Duhig was the first landscape gar
dener of Cambridge. He not only
planted the hawthorn trees in his
yard, but he originated the method
of their cultivation. This method
was simple. He selected cuttings
from horticulturally perfect bushes
Of hawthorn. These he bound to-
gether with iron bands and planted.
The bands resisted any tendency to
outward growth. Therefore the soft
wood growing inward was welded
together. In time a single trunk
the point of difference between a
tree and a bush-was formed. The
tree finally burst the combining
bands, the marks of which can still
be plainly seen.
These two trees, being Of the
white-howering variety, are especial
ly rare. One other hawthorn tree
was also grown by Mr.. Duhig in this
unique manner. 1t is a pink-aower-
ing one, in the yard Of DR.. Willard
A. Putnam's house, corner of Han
cock street and Massachusetts ave-
nue.. With two trees Mr.. Duhig left
in the care of Mrs. Martin at liz
Hancock street a wistaria vine. This
vine, which is 1875 years old, wa,
planted by John Duhig, the father
Of John Michael. John Duhie
fought with Gen. Joseph Warren a
Bunker Hill and he planted the wis
taria to commemorate the event.

BEAUTY OF BRBBLING BROOK
Every Farm Should Have One Of
These Pretty Streams Running
Through It's Meadows.

I have found it at last-the thing
have been dreaming about during
all these years Of city bondage; the
thing that opens up yistas of bucolic
beauty and benediction a rift Of
blue sky through the smudge and
smoke Of the strenuous strife! And
it has everything on it, except the
brook murmuring lazily through the
meadows and kicking up its silver
heels over pebbled pathways. But
YOU can't have everything on a small
farm that someone else laid out in
the days when city dwellers we're not
looking for babbling brooks. If l
had had the parcelling out of farms,
| would have put a '1aughing brook
somewhere on each one, for the pink
footed ducks to frolic in and snap
their long bills over juicy bugs and
worms. Perhaps the great and good
Husbandman did not have enough
brooks to go round, and l must
worry along without a brook. Per-
haps | will make one some of these
days. In the meantime, l advise all
my neighbors who have babbIing
brooks to take them in at night

AMERICA, LAWYERS PARADISE

The profession of the law has
Aourished only in free countries.
While it has always been sharply
criticized and lawyers have frequent
ly been called parasites on society
or at the best necessary evils-in
view Of the part they have played in
the struggle for constitutional free
dom this popular view is not accu-
rate.
If that view were true we ought to
find those nations where there are
few or no lawyers the most peace
full, orderly and prosperous. Just
the opposite is true. In a magazine
article in 1904 it was stated that
China had no lawyers, that in Rus
STA the proportion Of lawyers to pop
u%lation was one to $1,000, in Ger
many one to $500, in France one to
400, in England one to LOO, and
in the United States one to 7O0.-

He was fresh from the short grass
and his first visit to a museum of
art was proving decidedly interest
ing. After taking in the classical Sec

and in his breezy western way, broke
the ice.
"They've got some pretty fine pic

the pieces are very valuable"
"But say" said the newcomer.

DID you ever sit around outside
your house on a Sunday after
noon, or of an evening, maybe,
and watch the paint, and see it
go, when it ought to be holding
on tight?
Some paints are so poor that you can almost
see them as they dry out, and crumble, and
powder, and blow away,
Why do they do this? Why does this happenP
Something the matter with the materials-too
much lead, maybe, or poor oil, or not
scientifically ground and mixed-might have
been good materials but not balanced right
for wear.
At thi, store we make it our business to KNOW what
paint will wear-because it pays us to handle the kind
that pays you. And that's why we handle MOUND
CITY HORSE SHOE BRAND HOUSE PAINT
made Of pure lead and zinc and aged linseed oil, the
necessary drier and coloring matter-and nothing
else. Every atom of every gallon of it is good paint.
Paint that is balanced for longest wear, for finest looks
and to spread over the largest surface to the gallon.
So much for the outside of the house, but don't forget there's a
HORSE SHOE BRAND PAINT for every use-one for kitchen
floors and steps-one for borders around ugs-one for screens
one for bugges, another for wagons, and one for practically every
other purpose.
The best place in this town to buy paint is the place where they know
most about paint and can help you and advise you what particular
paint to use for the purpose, how to get the surface ready, how to
put it on, and all that; things you naturally want to know to get the
best results. So if you want the best paint and the best paint service
(and you do if you come here,) come her,
