sit for strictly limited time with child who
tells you what he means to do when he is
man; but when that same child, loud d-voiced,
insstent, unbluahingy eager for praise, but
thin-skinned and the most morbid of hobblede-
hoys, stands about all your ways telling you
the same story IN the same voice, you begin
to yearn for something made and finished
say Egypt and a complete dead mummy"
That is fairly general statement But
when Mr.. Kiplng deals with New York then
he really gets down to business:
mo one has yet approached the manage
ment Of New York in proper spirit; that IS
to say, regarding it as shiftless outcome of
squalid barbarism and reckless extravaganza.
No one is likely to do so, because reflections
on the long, narrow pig trough are construed
as malevolent attacks against the spirit and
majesty of the great American people and
lead to angry comparisons. Yet, if all the
streets Of London were permanently up and
all the lamps permanently down, this would
not prevent the New York streets taken in
lump from being first cousins to Zanzibar
foreshore, kin to the approaches of Zulu
kraal. Gulies, holes, ruts, cobblestones
awry, curbstoncs rising from two to six inches
above the level Of the slatternly pavement
tram lines from two to three inches above
street levels generous scatter Of
filth and more mixed stinks than the winter
ind
land the three things that are supposed to be
the pillars of moderately decent government
are regard for human life, justice criminal
and civil, as far it lies in man to do justice
and good roads. In this Christian city they
think lightly of the first-thcr own papers,
their own speech and their own actions prove
1t; buy and sell the second at a price openly
and without shame, and apparently, con-
tent to do without the third. One would al
most expect that racial sense of humor
would stay them from expecting only praise
slab lavish and slavsh-from the stranger
within their gates. But they do not"
These are only fragments of things ("Let
ters Of Travel') that Mr.. Kipling has written
about America. Strange words from one who
has lived among US, who married among US,
and who apparently does not see that all these
things may in one sense be true and in an
other sense utterly false.
MIR. W L. GEORGE. even now traveller
"in these parts is much more lenent
and pleasant. He declares in one of his books
that if it had to be done over again it might
not be half bad to be born an American. His
sense of gratitude over hospitalities showcrcd
upon him keeps holding him back. 1t is how
ever, his very complaisancc that makes some
Of his remarks about America rankle,

sven further, and will hardly admit that there
Is an American race at all. He says in "The
National Review:
"To begin with, you must dispossess your
mind Of the idea that there is an American
people at all, as we understand people In
Europe. To be people is the dominant ideal
OF the Americans, an ideal which they claim
with all appropriate ferceness to have real
ICED, knowing all the while that they have
done nothing Of this sort, and that their only
hope OF realizing anything of the kind is TO
stop immigration, to do away with their pres
ant social system and then wait five centuries
for events to develop"
Such an utterance this is enough 10 make
ono despair. What can be done with man
who not only doesn't even understand tho firxs
principles Of what American ansm la, but will
not even admit that there is such s. thing as
An Americana
MIR, KIPLTNG is laboring under no such
illusions. He has been here, he has lived
here, and what he thinks about Americans
leaves no doubt whatever Here Is one little

of more than twenty-three per cent. A Connecticut pen of White Leg horns owned by Mrs. J. L. Theusen of New Haven was the best pen for the week with a production of 46 eggs. Two pens of the same breed entered by Acrebridge , Farm of Marlboro, Mass, and Hollywood Farm of Hollywood, Wash, tied for second place with 45 eggs each. Obed G. Knights pen of White Wy andottes from Bridgeton, R. l., was in third place with a score of A eggs A pen of Rhode Island Reds owned by Jacob E. Jansen of North Haven and Hilltop Farms pen of White Leghorns from Sufield, Conn, tied for fourth place with 43 eggs each.
 An enormous number of egg re- cords collected at Storrs during the last dozen years form the basis for predicting the minimum production for a\good bullet that is well fed and we'll cared for. The table below shows the number of eggs each hen in the f9ck should lay during each month of the year. Small focks that have special care and attention can be made to do better, especially dur ing the earlier months of the hen year. The total of 16O eggs offered as a standard or, guide is admittedly more eggs than the average farm hen lays. On the other hand no real chicken man will be satisfied with less and many successful poultrymen in Connecticut are getting more.

Error coneernna Peanuta.

The erroneous idea that eating pea nuts will affect the growth of hair may have arisen from the fact that hair, wool, feathers, and similar an- imal tissues, when analysed, show a relatively large amount of cystine, which is one of the amino acids pres ent in protein. Even were the as sumption true that by eating foods containing cystine the growth of hair could be stimulated, 1t would not ap- ply in the case of peanuts, which do not contain as high percentage of cystine as many other common foods.

D0D6E BROTHERS
 SEDAN r

Many who could well afford more expensive cars are showing marked preference for Dodge Brothers Sedan.
 They find it easy to drive, economical to run, and comparable in beauty and elegance with cars much higher in price .,
 In the vast amplitude of Dodge Brothers closed body plant, this sedan Is constructed with all the studious precision that marks the work of the finest custom builders. .-"
 Eighteen days are devoted alone to the 18 rub ping and vanishing operations which are respon- sible for the unusual briliancy of it's lustre D Months of seasoning precede the use of the fine, critically selected ash which gives the body its rugged firmness. The interior fittings, too are chosen with thought fulness and rare good taste. The upholstery is covered with genuine mohar velvet of singu- larly rich and beautiful pattern. The seats are .roorny and luxurious. Steel disc wheels (with cord tires) harmonize in most effective way with the new grace and smartness which Dodge Brothers have recently brought to the lines of the body.
