telling them tho proper way to put
shingles on n house. He said: "The
old rule was to allow six inches of
the shingle to 'show to the weather,'
but that Is too much. You should al
low not moro than four Inches to
show." Some wag remarked In a mat-ter-of-fact
tone to the Judge: "How
would It do not to let any show?" Tho
Judge replied, "I've seen roofs mnde

prize food in n few words, and that
from personnl experience. She writes:
"After our long oxpcrlenco with
Grape-Nuts, I cannot say enough In its
Xnvor. Wo have used this food almost
continually for seven years.
"Wo sometimes tried other adver
tised breakfast foods but wo Invariably
returned to Grape-Nuts as tho most pal
atable, economical and nourishing
of all.
"When I quit tea and coffee nnd ho
gan to uso Postum and Grnpe-Nuts I
was a norvous wreck. I was so ir
ritable I could not sleep nights, had
no interest in life.
"After using Grape-Nuts a short time
I began to Improve and nil these ail

a well woman. My two children havo
been nlmost raised on Grape-Nuts,
which they eat three times a day.
"They aro ptcturcs of health nnd
hnvo never had tho least symptom of
stomach trouble, even through the
most sovero slego of whooping cough
they could retain Grape-NutB when all

"Grape-Nuts food has saved doctor

NEW YORK. ningham Is the Imp

department, hut Ezra C. Hlngham, who
is at the head of the engineering nnd
mechanical departments of tho Waldorf-Astoria.
Hlnghnm la happy he
cause, after years of urging, he has at
last pursuaded Georgo C. Holdt to per
mit him to establish a chicken farm
on tho roof of the mngnlllcent hostelry
on Fifth nvenue over which Mr. Holdt
presides.
Hlngham Is a farmer from tho far
weBt. A big, Htnlwnit fellow, with the
breezy atmosphere of the prairies still
clinging to him. During the warm
spring, Bummer and early autumn,
when the doors and windows were
all open and Hlngham could breathe
something like pure air, ho did
not mind living In tho Waldorf
Astoria, but when tho late fall and
winter months came and like every
one else doing Indoor work he had to
be housed many hours of the day, his
mind reverted to the old life iu the
west and he longed to bo back on the
farm raising live stock of somo sort.

the remarkable English achievements
of one of their number, Clara Taylor,
now In the divorce court nt Edin

There nre those In paint and

confessed fondness for Lord North

a matter for surprise, as. sho was al

show girl in London, nfter leaving New

the unmarried young gentlemen of

Clnra Taylor came to New York
from Washington in 1001. Sho brought
a letter of Introduction to the editor of
a dramatic paper. Sho got a job on
the paper and worked thero two dnys.
Sho was only 1G years old, so sho said.
She was attractive, and nppeared to bo
well educated and well brought up.
Sho was looked upon ns a runaway
from home, an innocent, heedless

"I don't see," snld Illngham to Mr
Holdt one day, "why New Yorkers
don't have some sort of farms on the
roofs, of course they enn't have dairy
fauns, hut they might have chicken
farms or squab farms."
"We can't have farms," said Mr
Holdt, "but we can have roof gardens
both summer and winter, anil this wlih
ter we will open a garden on the tool'
of this hotel which will be as good as.
a farm. Wo will spend $100,000 to
make this winter garden and sun par
lor tho finest In the woild. Now Is
your chance, Dlnghnm. You mny hnv
chickens, ostriches or birds of para
dise up there If you like, so long as
they nre an attraction."
Hlngham saw his chance nnd took It,
With the icsnlt that he has In n few
months built the finest and most com

tho roof of the $8,000,000 Wuldorf-As

stocked them with the llnest breeds of

to he found In America. Hlngham hns
12i chickens in tills ranch, nil of which
ho has hatched In Incubators on the

arc given to poor Invalids who cannot

had six different places.
The little runaway girl from Wash

enreer to an end when she tried the
patience of George Ledercr, seven
years ago, when Ledercr hud on "The
Wild Robc" She wns In tho chorus of
this company, along with Evelyn Nes

Eddie Foy, then playing In the piece,
Indulged In a little joke, and this
meant the turning point In the enreer
of Clara Taylor.
"Why don't you go on bnrefooted?"
ho suggested to Miss Taylor as the
chorus stood In tho wings, waiting for
the cue to romp on the stage.
"Why not?" nsked tho lass. And
down she sat on the boards and
stripped off shoes nnd stockings. Hare
footed and barelegged she went down
to the footlights, Inaugurating the
Trilby dnnco In New York.
At tho close of tho show MIsb Tay

seeking another Job. Having run tho
gamut of the New York shows, sho
went to her friends nnd collected
enough money to take her to London.
Sho landed In the chorus of "Tho Earl
and tho Girl," playing nt tho A del phi
theater. In the company wore mnny
American girls, friends of Miss Tuylor.
These friends found that Miss Tay
lor had n suitor In John Alexander
Stirling, nnd that she wns well sup
plied with money. Tho announcement
thnt she had married Stirling did not
surprise tho profession on this side
of tho water.
their attentions to the tnsk of trying
to keep the shoo seekers from ex
tending their line into the street said
there were more men In line thnn Inst

into a big clubroom on the second
floor. At one end of this room the
Hhoes nnd socks were idled In a stack
extending almost to the celling. Ab
each man entered ho surrendered his
ticket of invitation and told an attend
ant his size of Bhoo. Most of tho
shoes given nwny were numbered nlno
and ten, although there were some
eight's. Thero whs nothing smaller
than nn eight, nnd nil the shoes that
wero distributed were of excellent
wearing quality.
"nig Tim" Sullivan looked In during
tho nfternoon to see that everything
was running smoothly. Ills appearance
was greeted with cheer's.
Somo of his friends remained In the
club till the last pair of shoes was
given nwny. Thcso friends reported
that thero were many new faces In the
assemblage.
Vnnderbllt nnd Miss Senrs separated,
nnd the millionaire's attention to the
young woman was generally comment

When Mr. Vanderbilt bonrded the

ho was seen to sign a number of legal
