power loom was the invention of a farmers boy who had never seen or heard of such n thing He fashioned one with his penknife and when he got It nil done he showed It with great en thusiasm to his father who at once kicked it all to pieces saying he would have no boy about him who would spend his time on such foolish things The boy was sent to a blacksmith to learn a trade and his master took a lively Interest iu him He made a loom of what was l t of the one his father had broken up and showed it to his mnster The blacksmith saw he had no common boy as an apprentice and that the invention was a valuable one He had a loom constructed under the supervision of the boy It worked to their perfect satisfaction and the blacksmith furnished the means to manufacture the looms and the boy received half the profits In about a year the blacksmith wrote to the boys father that he should bring with him a wealthy gentleman who was Uie In ventor of the celebrated power loom You may be able to judge of the as tonishment at the old home when bis son was presented to him as the in ventor who told him that the loom was the same as the model that he had kicked to pieces the previous year The Pointer There is as much fallacy in attempt ing to prove tho origin of pointing as in a like attempt to prove the origin of eating As a matter of fact the point ing act commonly exhibited by tho pointer and setter is an incident of the capture or attempted capture of food by dogs and also by wolves and foxes Coyotes have been seen to draw and point on prairie dogs and grouse in precisely the same manner that the pointer and setter draw ou game birds There were the same rigidity and stealth the pause to Judge of distance and opportunity and the final rigid pause when all the energies are con centrated for the final spring to cap ture All the phenomena displayed by the dog family Indicate that the draw ing and pointing in the pursuit of prey were ever natural traits It may be reasonably believed that man could not breed the pointing instinct out of the dog if he attempted to do so Forest and Stream A Gentle Wish It was their honeymoon They had moved into a pretty suburban

Taylors Universal System of Shorthand Writ ing published In 17S0 we find proof of the fountain pens great age I have nothing more to add wrote Samuel Taylor for the use or instruc tion of the practitioner except a few words concerning the kind of pen prop er to be used for writing shorthand For expeditious writing some use what are called fountain pens into which your ink is put which gradually flows when writing from thence Into a small er pen cut short to fit the smaller end of this instrument but It is a hard matter to meet with a good one of this kind The Fork It Is about 1900 years ago since the fork made its appearance In Europe In 99 A D a son ofsthe doge Pietro Orsolo had wedded in Venice the Briz zantiue Trincess Argila who produced at the wedding breakfast a silver fork and gold spoon Then the high Yene tion families followed suit and these martyrs to fashion pricked their lips with the iipw lnsrrnmenf Tho fnrr prospered however and spread over iiiiij m xoiv il

excellence Ufa voice is a dramatic soprano of great breadth and flexibility and its tanal qualities at which the boy sopr and still retains his beautiful voice at its highest stage of development A boys soprano survives the age r -- 4p r m VJW H TINDELL KAEBUItN of sixteen but young Raeburn is al most nineteen and does not look or ap pear younger This interesting young singer has been a member of a boy choir since his seventh year Efe is a nntive of Canada and entered the choir of Trinity church New York city at the age of eleven When he arrived at the age at which most boys lose their soprano tones tho choirmaster believed that he saw signs of the approaching change so much by boy singers who have been soloists and broke the intelligence as kindly as he could Raeburn took the hint and went his way sorrowfulh Two years later he returned to Trini ty and asked to bo given a trial The choirmaster tried to dissuade him but the lad was persistent and declared that he was all right again To end the matter he was given an opportu nity of showing what he could do To the choirmasters infinite astonishment and delight the boy sang with an ease and brilliancy that he had never be fore attained His voice retained all Its old time sweetness and quality and had gained immeasurably in volume and expression He was re engaged at once and has remained at Trinity ever since Raeburns long career as a chorister has made him an excellent and most competent musician and his repertory Is very extensive He has sung In most of the oratorios masses and sacred cantatas that are produced by Ameri can choirmasters and has mastered all ineir tecnnical difficulties He is also familiar with most of the best known arias of grand opera FRANKLIN PORTRAITS Interest Is Inspired In Them by the Bicentenary Ceremonies The ceremonies in Philadelphia in honor of the two hundredtli anniver sary of the birth of Benjamin Franklin have aroused interest in portraits and statues of the famous sage One of the best of the portraits Is the painting of him by Greuze for which he sat while in residence in France It is in pastel and life size and originally hung in the diplomats house at Passy The late Henry Shelton Sanford obtained It while charge daffaires in Paris dur ing the revolution of 1848 49 The fact MtrmsYjl llSPfef ti mms7r ir i i tj r Zas - - - si A- 5 t fc r x2 x - Jr m d- ve3r Fvm

the daughters of the late General Sanford to the American Philosophical society and hung in the Pennsylvania Acad emy of Fine Arts with that other in teresting portrait of Franklin which was presented to the United States by the governor general of Canada Earl Grey The latter was painted by an eminent English artist Benjamin Wil son In 1759 and was taken from Franklins home in Philadelphia in 1778 when the British evacuated Phila delphia by General Grey A UattXe In the Sen Did you ever see bluefish charge u school of mcrJjadeu at sea That is something- worth seeing The bluefish throw their

Into all this commotion conies u great shark Its a niciih fm- iin are so unusual that his singing has at- shark a school of menhaden all herded tracted much attention from teachers UP ror Its benefit

In the tl lfc swims around and bites out fact that he has long passed the ace i ualr Jl dozen more from the school It loprano is at his best 0iqC3 itself without effort But the menhaden are not nearly as much dis turbed by the presence of the monster 3wimming about among them as they are by the charging bluefish The shark takes half a dozen fisli or more at a ui uju uiuuusu oniv uites a i piece out of a single fish but there I only one shark while there may be thousands of bluefish plunging and tearing incessantly and killing and maiming at every stroke The sharks a brute but under such circumstances the menhaden have less of fear than they have of contempt for him A Photographic IVnrnine The following story of a young lady living iu the country Who came to London to be photographed is told by a r aim vouched for by a well kuowu joiuon photographer After some days tho lad- Miss B was informed the photograph was not a success and another sitting was sug gested This she agreed to but again was informed that the photograph was a failure There was a third sitting In two days time she received an urgent letter from the photographer asking her to come up to his studio and to bring a friend with her Miss B went accompanied by her mother and was shown the amazing results of the three sittings The pictures of the gin nerseir were quite good but in each plate there was to be seen stand ing behind her the figure of a man holding a dagger in bis uplifted hand The features though faint were clear ly discernible and Miss B recognized them as those of her fiancee an officer in the Indian army The effect of this experience was so great that after a few days she wrote out to India break ing off the engagement Louls Napoleon Answered Lady Biessingtou did not always meet with gratitude from some whose position at last enabled them to serve her She sheltered in her London home Louis Napoleon after he had escaped from his prison in nam After Louis Napoleon became president of tho French republic he seems to have turned the cold shoulder on Lady Biessingtou and Count DOrsay when they approached him in Paris There was a story going at the time for the accuracy of which we certainly will not vouch but which appeared in sev eral of the London papers Shortly be fore Lady Blessingtous death she met so the story goes the president driving in the Champs Elysees He stopped his carriage she stopped hers and they conversed for a few minutes His manner seemed to her determinedly chilly Do you stay long in Paris he asked as he was about to drive on No she answered And you London Spectator George Eliot and Romola George Eliots first arrangement with the publisher of Romola was for no less a sum than 10000 guineas As that is so very large a figure he said I must run it through fifteen numbers of the Cornhill No she answered it must finish in twelve numbers or the artistic effect of the story will be lost I quite understand the necessity for its prolongation from a commercial point of view so well say 7000 guineas instead of the 10000 And 7000 guineas was accordingly paid for the copyright Three thousand guineas seem a large sum to give up for an artistic scruple but she did it Bod For Creditors In the faraway benighted commu nity of Damen in Africa the old fash ioned method of throwing a debtor into prison where he is safe from tlit tormenting visits of his creditors is not followed Instead he is practical ly turned over to the mercy of the creditors in a literal sense A heavy tree log is attached to his bare leg and this he is obliged to drag after him wherever he goes There Is no escaping the creditors now and the log remains bound to his ankle until his debts are paid CnriontIes of Womun Women pin from left to right men from right to
