Where Art Ceases.

All art is a matter Of nature or life
acted upon by man; a part taken out
of it's accidental surroundings and
given artistic form. At either side Of
the field of true art is a waste place
where art ceases to have beauty. And
the waste on the one side is reached
when the artist becomes so enamored
of life that he forgets to interpret, to
give artistic form, and only brings
forth a Photographic image, while the
waste on the other side is reached
when the artist perfects his form but
forgets to put life into it,-Sheldon
Cheney.

QUEEN MARY's PANTRY.
A Dazzling Array of Gold and Silver
Plate at Windsor.


Among the famous pantries of the
world is that of Queen Mary at Wind
sor. This pantry comprises two rooms
Of no great dimensions, but it contains
treasures in the form of plate and
household articles that are valued at
more than a million pounds sterling.
Many of these possess historic inter-
est. For example. there is a conspicu-
Gus exhibit in the form of table OF
solid silver. This is nearly yard in
length, and its top, with an area OF
several square feet, bears the royal
arms and exquisitely chased designs
of the symbolic rose. thistle. harp, etc.
Every reign since that of Elizabeth
has contributed to this table a design
of some sort.
The most imposing Of all the daz-
zling array of plate is the so called
gold dinner service for occasions of
the highest state.
The walls of the two rooms of this
royal pantry, the larger Of which is 81
by 16 feet and the smaller a square
of sixteen feet. are lined with cases Of
plate glass and mahogany, and in
these and similar cases occupying the
center of each room are some Of the
most extraordinary examples Of art<n
gold, silver and precious stones that
the world has ever seen.
There are tall, graceful epergnes.
each of which would tax the strength
of two men to lift: there are dishes
in gold and silver any one of which
would be too heavy to run away with;
dainty toilet services in gold and sill
yer, candelabra, communion services.
faGor5, vases, punch bowls, wine cool

BARBED WIRE IN WAR.
It Is Used In Various Ways and is
Deadly Defense.


Deadly Defense.
Barbed wire is today as necessary
part of an army's equipment as pom
toons or trenching tools. In war barb
ed wire is used in various ways, but
it's main object is man stopping. 1t Is
interlaced with ground pegs in front OF
trenches for the purpose of tripping
charging troops, ii is strung across
bridges and main roads to prevent the
passage of cavalry, and it is used for
fencing in camps to guard against
rushing tactics on the part Of the en-
emy.
Whenever possible barbed wire en-
tanglements are hidden in long grass
or in hedges. so that advancing troops
will be trapped while the enemy rakes
their lines with shot and shell. Barbed
wire concealed in underground is par
ticularly deadly where cavalry is con-
cerned. for the wire grips the horses
hoofs. causing them to fall on the
spike strewn ground.
At times certain roads that it is de-
sirable to have passable to townspeo-
pie have to be rendered impossible to
an army. TO accomplish this zigzag
fences of barbed wire are built from
one side Of the road to the other until
they form maze. A peasant with
time to spare can pass this barrier by
laboriously threading his way through
the narrow zigzag passage left open'
but an army of several hundred men,
especially if they have guns or are
mounted, must halt to destroy the en-
tanglement.
The barbed wire used for military
purposes possesses long, jagged joints
which inlict most painful wounds on
the body, especially when men and
horses fall on to them headlong, as so
often happens.-Philadelphia Press

The Fisher Shipp Concert

A capacity house gave the Fisher
Shipp Concert Company an en-
thusiastic reception on their ap-
pearance here to fill the second
number of the seasons lecture
course Monday night. Many pro-
nounce it the best> entertainment
ever given in Laclede. It was
different from the usual musical
attraction in that the program was
varied, snappy and entertaining
from start to finish. Miss Shipp is
woman of wonderful talent,
having voice of great beauty and
range, while her ability as a reader
gives her a high place in her pro-
fesssion. This is easily one of the
best companies on the lyceum and
chautauqua stage and the Parent
Teachers Association are entitled
to great credit for bringing them
to Laclede.
