Dead Easy.

Two guests missed the first courses
of dinner at a suburban home. which
had been arranged partly in their
honor. Hand bags had been searched.
distant homes called on the telephone
for information, much nerve energy
had been expended, all because the
key to the trunk containing the neces-
sary dinner raiment could not be
found. Finally n locksmith from the
town four miles away came by auto
mobile. was led 10 the trunk. and in
less than a minute the lid was turned
back.
Good work" said the maid.
Dead easy" said the locksmith: ''the
thing wasn't locked at all."-New York

BLuNOERS or ARTISTS.
Curious Examples In the Doms of thu
National Capitol.

Curious Examples In the Dons of thu
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 ma
tons greatest building. Yet i've OF
them are either defective in technique
or in error as to natural or historical
facts.
One of the best known pictures is
that in which Washington is shown
resigning his commission TO the CONT
mental congress. There are two young
girls, almost life size. standing in the
foreground. They are very pretty
hands. One left hand rests on the
shoulder OF her companions; 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 superfluous 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 CIV
en- him six toes on his left foot.
In the painting OF the lnnding of CO.,
lumbus. which used TO be reproduced
on the five dollar banknote, the artist
has painted three flags. They are very
well drawn. but one is blowing east.
one west and one south, which indi-
Gates a very variable condition of the
wind on that famous day.
In the picture of the surrender OF
CORVALLIS General Washington is con-
spicuous seated upon n white horse.
But General Washington was not pres
ent at the surrender CORVALLIS did
not surrender his army in person, but
sent subordinate officer to do so. Ac-
cordingly Washington detailed an Off
Ger 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 Phila-
delphia on July 4. 1TI6." is wrong only
in the title. The Declaration of indie
pendence was adopted on July 4, but
it was not signed by the members Of
the congress until Aug. 2, 1IIG.--
