Window Seats Make for Comfort.

One of the details of planning which
should not be overlooked is the matter.
of window seats, of which there can!
hardly be too many in a home. In,
every bay window where possible al
window seat should be constructed
and so constructed as to be useful as
well as ornamental that it have COW
ers in the top, neatly hinged and so
arranged that they may be easily open
ed to permit using the space under
the seat for the storage of things
which 1t is desired to have handy and
for which there seems no other con-
venient place.
Around the fireplace there is moth
ing more attractive and comfortable
looking than a nice built-in seat, and

useful for storing the kindling wood
and occasionally a few big sticks as
well, when it is not convenient to use
a wood box or basket beside the fire.

During the last year of Benny's life came the
stunning news that Custer and his men had fought
their last fight. James E. Porter, Harrington and
others, lieutenants and West Pointers all, persisted
with that gallant band. Not until Benny had died
did these verses appear in memory of Custer and
his command:

DESTROY BEAUTY OF CITY
Cards and PIaeards Have No Place in
Streets Of Any WelI-o ordered
Community.

Political ambitions are becoming so
much an obstacle 20 civic beauty that
the esthetic souls of many communi1
ties have been on the verge of rebel
lion for some time past. When a man
becomes obsessed with n desire to
shine in public life he announces his
matchless virtues by means Of flarinE
cards and placards. These cards are
placed at every point where the hu-
man vision might be expected to dwell.
Does one pause to enjoy the grandeur
of a rural scene, he is reminded from
every tree and rock that "Smith is the
peoples choice for constable or that
Zones stands for the square deal"
The outrage is heightened by a series
of homely visages showing the aspiring
ones in various poses of vanity.
Vandalism is a strong term, but is
it too strong for such practices? The
worst part is that it is perennial. The
bounteous crop sown at election time
is permitted to remain the year
around. BY the time the elements
have succeeded in destroying one crop.
another has put in appearance. Cards
may be found in any grOve-the cards
of men who have been politically dead
for years. 1t may have been proved
at the polls that the erstwhile 'peo-
pies choice was not any ones choice;
yet he must be RECALLED with the pla-
cards or every tree and eminence.
Minneapolis, whose finer sensibili-
ties have been aroused, will have no
more of this. Hereafter, candidates
will have to proclaim their virtues in
some other manner. DETACHMENT of
scenery by homely visages and trite
slogans will be inhibited by law. At
In election now impending, most of the
candidates have agreed to keep their
placards out of public scenic places.
Others are to be arrested. The ex-
ample set by Minneapolis is a worthy
one.-Portland Oregonian.

MERcIFUL NURSE TO MANKIND
Charity Follows Heels of caIamities
and Walks In Wake Of Raw
ages of War.

AS a merciful nurse TO mankind
Charity springs up in desolate places,
cheerily and heartily bestowing beauty
under most adverse conditions. 1t fol-
lows at the heels of calamities and Wis
itations; it walks in the wake of the
ravages and atrocities of war; It
comes after the fall of the t%hunderbolt,
after the conclusion of the earthquake.
1t rides the tempest, the whirlwind,
he flood, the tornado, and in the hours
of threatening anger and dissension II
covers up the scars Of the past and
thrusts prejudices and vested rights
away in the blackness of midnight
darkness.
TITS Charity who lays the coin in the
beggar's hand. IT'S Charity who takes
the orphan in it's arms, houses the in
digent and the aged, clothes the naked,
feeds the hungry and lifts the fallen.
We find 1t, as the late ORION B. Hunt
once remarked, standing at the prison
gate, as it seeks those who have vio-
lated the laws of God and man, to
counsel and aid In a proper reforma-
ton we find 1t in the bowels of the
earth. In the forest, upon the mountain
top, in the shop and counting room,
upon the green fields, In the valleys
and upon the streets the wide world
over-wherever sorrow and misfor-
tune has placed its blighting grasp, it
brings comfort to the tortured soul
and spreads It's rays of hope and en-
enlargement. "-"Friendship Charity
and Benevolence," George Leon Var
ney, In National Magazine.

The voice died down, a c~onvulsive
shudder crossed the old mans frame.
His jaw dropped. In alarm Marcy ran
to the nearest neighbor to telephone
for the doctor. He was too late. When
he returned tt the house Gregory
Tresham was dead.
Marcy missed him. for he had been
a kind and indrngent friend. He had
trusted implicitly in Marcy, giving him
the entire management Of the Httls
farm. The village lawyer came to see
Marcy one evening a week later. He
announced to his client that he was
the sole heir to the farm and that a
thousand dollars In the bank had also
been left to him.
All those days Marcy had been
thinking over the last significant ut
terance of Gregory Tresham. 1t was
obvious to him that the old man, had
his strength lasted longer, would have
suggested some change in his will to
favor Hester Vale.
"Mr. Morse" he spoke out now, to
the infinite amazement of the lawyer.
"can that will be d~estroyed?"
"The will-destroyed?" repeated the
attorney, marvelingly-"why, what do
you mean?"
"Well, can it2" persisted Marcy.
Certainly not-lt is on record"
Marcy proceeded to tell Mr.. Morse
of the incident attending the last mo-
ments Of his employer. He stated def
nitely that he could not think of &C
cepting the legacy. when Enthusiastically
the dying intention of Mr.. Tresham
was to leave 1t to the girl he had driven
from his love.
