What Art Should be.
'Slings tin a painting) must not have
•the appearance of being brought to-
gether by chance or for a purpose, but
must have a necessary and inevitable
connection. I desire that the creations
which I device should have the air of
being dedicated to their situation, so
that one could not imagine that they
would dream of being anything else t'saan
veleta they are. A work of art ought
to be all one piece, and the men and
things in it should always be there for
a reason. It were better that things,
weakly said should not be said at all,
because in the former case they are
only, as it were, deflowered and spoiled.
Beauty docs not consist so much of the
things represented, as in the need one
has had of expressing them; and this
need it is which creates the degree of
force with which one acquits oneself
of the work. One may say that every-
thing ie beautiful provided the thing
enrrre up in its own proper time and in
its own place; and, contrariwise, that
nothing can. be beautiful arriving in-
appropriately. Let Apollo be Apollo, and
.Seoera'.ce Socrates. Which le the more
beautiful, a. straight tree of a crooked
tree? Whichever is most in place. This,
then., is my conchasion: The beautiful
is that which is in place.—Jean Fran-

Why are you always awake so wide,
Oh, little gold moon on high?
Fee twisted my "thinker" from side to

Yet it will never tell me why,
The world is quiet at night, I know;
The hollyhocks droop their heads,

To sleep in their leafy beds.
But you are always awake, old fellow,
And so is each tiny star;
And you're just as pretty and soft and
yellow
.As the little buttercups are.

And tumble and toss about,
When mother says, "Bobbie, go right to

And so Ire'e made a candle on wings,
And never blows out the light!

Gently Broke the News.
Captain Pritchard, of the Mauretania,
was talking about sailors. "We are a
bluff lot," he said, "Did you ever hear
about the sailor and the parrot? Well,
alt old lady was returning from abroad
with a parrot of which she was very
fond. She intrusted the bird, with many
admonitions, to a sailor for the voyage.
Seasickness, or something, killed the par-
rot the third day out. The sailor, know.
ing how upset the old lady would be,
could not bring himself to tell her the
sad tidings, but asked a companion, fam-
ous for his skill in such matters, to
break the bad news to her very; very
gently. The man assented. Approach-
ing the old lady with a tragical face,
the fatuous newsbreaker touched his cap
and said: 'I'm afraid that 'ere bird o'
yourn ain't goin' to live long, ma'am:
'Oh, dear!' exclaimed the old lady in
alarm. 'Why?' "Cause he's dead,' was
the reply.'"

The Making of Garden Walks.
Even in a ,small' garden, the laying
out of the walks is a delightful task. It
cuts the enclosure even more tellingly
than the laying down of rugs within
doors; it divides sweets that may be
neighbors from sweets that may not;
the introduction of little threads of
paths will harmonize vagrant colors as
can no other device. And this is a plea
for walks of grass. It is true that
gravel walks given a sense of neatness
and trimness;; it is true that the strip
of cool white gravel is an institution
as honorable a& the stars; but if you
have ever been is an old-fashioned gar-
den and stepped along between sweet-
smelling wildernesses with wide walks
oft hick grass between the, beds, then
you know that the gravel walk is use-
ful for nurserymen but charming for
nobody.
Particularly in naturalistic gardening
—as if gardening can ever be anything
else—grass walks are indispensable. And
why not let the lawn extend to the bor-
der beds? Of course narrow gravel strips
may edge the border beds when they do
not mar the general effect of tate lawn,
but especially in email gardens these
should be omitted. Do you not remem-
ber the old pictures of the castle gar-
dens where princesses walk all day?—

An elderly churchwarden of a small
church in Birmingham, England, in shav-
ing himself one Sunday morning recent-
ly before church time made a slight cut
with the razor on the extreme end of
his nose. He called his wife and asked
her if she had any court plaster in the
house. "You'll find some in my sewing
basket," she replied. At church, while
assisting with the collection, he noticed
everyone smile as he passed the plate,
and some of the younger people laughed
outright. Much annoyed he asked a
friend if he noticed anything wrong
with his appearance. "Well, I should
say there is," was the answer. "What
is that on your nose?" "Court plaster."
"No," said the friend, "it is the label
from a reel of cotton. It says, "War-
ranted 200 yards.'"

VISIBILITY OF LIGHTS.
Result of Experiments Conducted in
Germany and the Netherlands.
The result of the experiments in Liget
visibility eonds:reed by Germany a. id
:.Che Netherlands working in harmony
are given as follows:'A light of one -cau-
dle power is plainly visible at elle mile,
and one of three -candle power at three
utiles. A ten -candle power light was
seen with a binocular at four miles, one
of 29 at five miles, though faintly, and
one of 33-ean,clle power at the same dis•
Lance without difficulty. On an excep-
tionally clear night a white light of
3.2•candle power could be distinguished
at three miles, one of 5.6 at four and
one of 17.2 at five miles.
The experiments were made with
green light, as it has been conclusively
proved that if a light of that color fills
the required test a red light on the same
intensity will more then do so. It was
found that the candle power of green
light, which remained visible at one,
two, three, and four miles, was 2, 15, 51

4 HOSPITALS FAILED
James Iieard, of Morton Park, Ont„ says:
"While employed at the Speciality Works, of
Newmarket, 6 or 7 years ago, I bruised my
ankle, but through neglect, this bruise turn-
ed to an ulcerated or burning tore which
caused me a great deal of suffering. I tried
a great many doctors, and was in the hos-
pital four times. I tried alrnost everything,
but nothing did me any good. I could not
sleep at night with the scalding and burn-
ing pain, but from the first application of
Zam-Buk I never lost any sleep, and felt
nothing more of it than if I hadn't any sore
at all. It started healing and gave me no
further trouble. Shortly after this I was get-
ting an a street car, my foot slipped and I
came with all my might down the edge of
the step and gave my foot a terrible mangl-
ing up. This made it far worse than ever,
but I started again with Zam-Buk, and it
did the same work over again as it did at
first and my ankle is sound and well as ever
it was. I cannot speak too highly of Zaan-
Buk,"

How It Works.
Once there was a struggling young au-
thor who was blest with many friends,
all of whom told him that he was the
Doming great writer of the country.
So one day a bright thought struck
him. He said:
"I will publish my book, and all my
friends who admire it so much will buy
my book, and I will be rich."
So he printed his book.
And all of his friends waited for him
to send them autographed copies of his
book.
And so his books were sold as junk.
And ever after he didn't have any
friends.—Success Magazine.
