John Milton's COTTAGE,

One of the best preserved historic
country houses in all England is John
Millions cottage at chalfont st. Giles,
to which the blkld and aging poet fed
when the great plague swooped down
on London. That was in July. 1865,
and Milton had just finished Paradise
Lost and received five pound note
for it, with a promise of three more
five pound notes if the poem sold four
editionS of 800 copies each. The cot
tage stands at the top of the village.
and it is in practically the same con-
dition as when Milton left it. Here
the poet received his distinguished
guests during the latter part of his
life.

Alfred Hunt was at the same time
both a very slow and fastidiously
punctilious sketcher from nature, a
combination which is said to have has
tened his end, for he had a book for
every hour of the day and every condi-
ton Of weather. and, Overladen with
these, he would often trudge lengthy
distance to his work. He would then
start. say, on an incomplete morning
effect in sunshine, to he cast aside for
similar subject in shadow if the
scene clouded over or for monday
one directly that hour was reached. 1t
is said that he consequently sometimes
carried as many as dozen varieties

The mulberry tree is the hardest

/ beg in the country what owes me.
beg in the country got hurt in"
! Such was Paul Golik's answer to the
proposal to be returned to his home
in the old country. He has been given
chance to go back, expenses paid, at
no cost to himself. But he has turned
it down. And his answer was short,
curt and very much to the point.
Golik, it is claimed, was an unfor-
tunate victim of some alleged unscrup-
ulous methods of his attorney, Joseph
De La Motto, in a personal injury suit
brought by Golik against the Ericsson
& Long company, of Duluth, in whose
employ he was injured on July 20,
1909.
Suit was brought, verdict of 81 100
obtained, but Golik got nothing. De
La Motto, his attorney, took half the
recovery and the other half was spent
in expenses of litigation. A district
court investigation which followed re-
suited in an order compelling De La
Motto to make a restitution of about
$21O of the money.
Some other money was also returne
Some other money was also returned
to him by others involved in the case.
The money was returned over to G.
w. c. Ross, attorney for the Asso-
ciated Charities, who has had consid-
cradle difficulty in getting Golik to
accept it. Golik has been reluctant,
believing that he has more coming and
that if he accepts any, he will bar
himself from any further rights.
Last week, the Australian consulate
at st. Paul through its attorney, Nor
itz Helm, made an effort to take Golik
back to the old counry free Of ex-
pense. When this offer was made
known to Golik, he refused absolutely
to consider it.
Golik is 80 years old and is native
of the village of Dolni, Kosenj, Croa-
tia. He is married man and has a
wife and child, aged 6. He has been
in this country six years.

the average length of life of its inhabi-

that island live to the age of 61.8 years,
which is very nearly double the mean
