Historical reminiscences, awakened by present relations between France and the United States, recalls that In the early days of the American republic French artists made the first sculptural representations of American men and events. America had portrait painters, as witness the surviving portraits of Washington, but no "statuaries," as sculptors were then called, of equal merit. The medals commemorating the American Revolution were struck chiefly in France, and Houdon crossed the ocean to model the bust of Washington necessary for his statue of the American general and president.

It was a grave question whether the sculptor should clothe the general in modern costume or dress him, after the art fashion of the time, In the classic garb of a Roman, and, as the story comes down, It took the combined opinions of Wash Eugene Bondoman came down from Abilene and spent the week end with home folks.

Tills admonition is needed not merely by the manual laborers, but also by all classes, and especially by the "poodle fakers" of so-called high society. An afternoon trip to the most expensive hotels discloses the fact that the war has not completely purged us from the idle rich. One may encounter there a new species, formerly known as a "lounge lizard," now called a "sofa cootie." A soldier pointed me out one of these specimens, exclaim-' Ing: "Think of our brave who have fallen, and a thing like that survives 1" We won this war why? Because we heeded the law of sweat. In the crucial hour our society spewed out of Its mouth the Idle rich and the Idle poor.

We tolerated only one class, the workers. Vincent Astor and Klngdon Gould had to step up and do their duty Just the same as the Fricasinnt twins from "Little Italy." Now that the war Is won, this law of sweat should remain Imperative for all classes. Every man and every woman owes a duty of work to his age, and society of the future should be so organized as to insist that that debt Is paid. 31 ington, Jefferson and Franklin to secure a statue of the Father of his Country In his own proper garments.

Ten members and two visitors were present. During the business session the year books -prepared by the committee were then distributed and greatly appreciated by the members. New by-laws were read and accepted. After business roll call was "In this sector," was the reply, "it Is easy, to do that. At post 8 there ars only four meters between the pollu and his adversary." "Very weil," said Clemenceau.

"I wish to go to post 8." Complete silence reigned In the trenches where the soldiers stood, gun in hand, ready to go "over the top." Their faces were tired and deeply lined; In them were the traces of suffering and of anger. These men asked no favors, but they forgave nothing. In their eyes shone a determined resolution to win, and then to punish. When the party reached the covered passage leading to post 8, the guide told M. Clemenceau that for the remaining distance he would have to crawl upon his stomach, and In feat fashion the premier advanced until he met a sentry.

The total value of the American fish crop, Including that of Alaska and the insular possessions, is estimated now to be $150,000,000, allowing for the advances in value of the last year. The capital invested in the fisheries of the United States, including vessels and the land establishments for handling the fish, is estimated at about $75,000,000, and the number of persons employed Is 220,000. The value of the sea products turned out by the canneries Is $30,000,000. Food experts did well during the war times to urge Americans to eat more fish, not only because this helped conserve the supplies of beef and pork products but also because eating some good fish frequently means a change In the average man's diet which Is to his benefit.

The same argument holds true in regard to vegetables and green things, of which many people In cities do not eat enough for their own good. and wero enjoyed by all.

Referring to the law of sweat, we must realize that there are two ways In which a man may fulfill his obligations, either by brain sweat or by brawn sweat.

Dun BIRD KNOWN IN EVERY, STATE Writer Suggests That the Flicker Might Well Be Adopted as America's National Bird. The alert and industrious flicker Is suggested by Frank M.

Chnpman, writing In "Our Winter Birds," as the national bird, because It is a native of every state In the Union. He says It Is also adaptive and Intelligent, peace- ful though brave, useful and beautiful, but he cannot sing. The bird makes up for his failure to contribute vocal solos by drumming exhibitions that any trick snare drummer would envy. When the bird gets on a tin roof or gutter, and is feeling facetious, its work with its beak Is marvelous. "It wins Its way peaceably if It but if It is aroused it fights for all It Is worth," Mr.

One of the most amusing mishaps that ever happened In any production of Sir Henry Irving was in "Hamlet" during the first appearance of the ghost. The actor Impersonating the dead king of Denmark was audclenly seized with a violent fit of sneezing, but sought valiantly to go on with his lines, thereby giving a new and curious rendering to the words: "Hamlet achoul I am achoul -thy father's achou! spirit!" The house was in an uproar, and when next the ghost appeared a chorus of sneezes resounded from the gallery and another episode of the great tragedian went from the sublime to the ridiculous. lap casnot afford to do without a modern lighting system any longer.

Adam have been having the pleasure of their Those Birds, as Well as the Albatross, Are Frequently Taken With Rod and Line.

Curious though It may seem. It is a fact that birds are caught with rod and line In many parts of the world. The pastime Is declared to be almost lis fascinating as fishing. Gulls In Newfoundland are caught In this way In large quantities. In New England fishing for culls and petrels Is an Important industry.

The method of bird fishing Is practically the same as that of ordinary fishing. Two men go out In a dory pnd throw pieces of cod liver on the water. When large quantities of birds have been attracted to the spot more cod liver Is thrown out on a hook. This the birds greedily swallow and thus fall easy victims. Albatross are fished for In the same way off the Cape of Good Hope.

A piece of pork Is attached to a long line and thrown overboard. The bird will eye It for a long time, gradually and cautiously making toward It Suddenly he will seize It and hold It In his beak. When he discovers that he ts caught he will sit on the water and vigorously flap his wings. However, he will be drawn Into the boat and made captive. Albatross fishing Is Rood sport, since the bird requires careful handling.

So long as he pulls asainst the line it Is easy enough. The moment, however, he swims forward the hook vill drop from his beak unless It Is skillfully manipulated, and the bird will find himself free. i would be $500.00 per year.

Recently, so friends of Mr. King say, he and a hackful of passengers were lost within a half mile of Nashville, and he was two hours late when he arrived in town.

One of the passengers told the story on the driver after he had found out that Mr. King was not going to tell why he was- late. When near town he drove across Owl creek to let one of the passengers out and Instead of turning around he turned the horses only half way, and then drove Into a 40-acre cornfield. One of the women passengers, bearing the cornstalks popping, asked Mr. King when they would get back on the road.

He did not answer, but kept driving around and around In the cornfield. After a few minutes she asked him where they were. He replied, "be 'f I know." The passengers, all strangers, became alarmed and, after calling for help, a young farmer appeared and showed the driver how to get out of the cornfield and on the pike.
