Have You a Dodge Miniature? J
iLTiere aro today a very largo number
homes in America where tho most
kasured possession is a small old fash-
ted miniature, painted some timo be-
fcen tho years 1828 and 1870, most
oly, and which bears in tiny, unos-
itatious lettering tho name of tho
hist, "J. Dodge." If the miniature
that of a bona fide ancestor and not
lit of tho bought variety its posses-
n is better than a D. A. It. pin, for
practically every Instance It Is all
h proof necessary that tho family an-
itor was somebody. For tho artist
jo painted these pictures did tho
rat masterly work, and his patrons
presented tho statesmen and lead-
of their time. Henry Clay, An-

Wo Ure coritlnually reading In tho

however, who know how long a bat
tleship lasts. The avcragd lfo of a
modem battleship is about fifteen
years. In the old days a battleship
was on active service nearly tho wholo
timo of its commission, which was
about a hundred years.
