BLUNDERS OF ARTISTS.

Curious Examples In the Dome of the
 National Capitol.
 In the dome of the capitol at Wash. ington there are eight great paintings carefully designed and executed by the artists for the adornment of the na- tion's greatest building. Yet five of them are either defective In technique or in error as to natural or historical facts.
 One of the best known pictures Is that ir which Washington is shown resigning his commission to the Conti- mental congress. There are two young girls, almost life size, standing in the foreground. They are very pretty young girls, but one of them has three hands. One left hand rests on the shoulder of her companion; another left hand Is round her companions waist Doubtless the artist Trumbull painted both hands to see which pose he preferred and then forgot to paint out the superfuous hand,
 Diagonally across the rotunda is the painting of the baptism of Pocahontas. Sitting in the foreground is Opecan- canough, the uncle of Pocahontas. He is barefooted. and the artist has gi7. en him six toes on his left foot
 In the painting of the landing of Co., lumbus, which used to be reproduced on the five dollar banknote, the artist has painted three flags. They are very we'll drawn, but one is blowing east, one west and one south, which indi- cates a very variable condition of the wind on that famous day.
 In the picture of the surrender of CornwaIlis General Washington is con- spIcuous seated upon a white horse. But General Washington was not pres ent at the surrender. Cornwallis did not surrender his army in person, but sent a subordinate officer to do 50. Ac- cordingly Washington detailed an ofi- cer of corresponding rank to receive the surrender. It would have been a breach of military etiquette for Wash ington to be present
 The fifth picture, "signing of the Declaration of Independence at Pktla- delphia on July 4. 1776," is wrong only in the title. The Declaration of Inde- pendence was adopted on July 4, but 1t was not signed by the members of the congress until Aug. 2 1T76.- Youths Companion.

Healthy citv FoIEs,

Life in a great city does not neces- sarily lead to physical degeneration. There died a London fish hawker about four years ago who could trace his family back POO years and had never heard of any addition of cOun- try blood. He died within 6 few
 weeks of his golden wedding and left twenty-one children, seyenty-one grandchildren and twenty great-grand. children. None of the children mar rled out of the London district in which they lived, except a soldier son who emlgrated. The old man piled his trade until within two days of his death and "could pull his barrow twenty miles. He had sinews Ike a young tun and not corn on bis feet "

CANADIAN IMMIGRATION.

Canadian immigration figures for
the first three months OF 1913 show a
heavy decrease in immigration from
the United States. American settlers
entering Canada during the first quar-
ter OF the year numbered 1925. as
aginst 53.3i3 last year. A large part
OF the American immigration TO Cana
da has been the result OF the active
and aggressive campaigns carried on
by the Canadian railroads. American
farmers have been attracted by the
offer Of cheap lands. and by glowing
pictures OF the Canadian farm prod.

IL is possible that they are begin
