Henry Clay Work, who was born at Middletown, Connecticut, in 1832, was imprisoned in Missiuri for helping a fugitive slave to escape. He was a printer by trade and wrote “Kingdom Coming,” “Babylon is Fallen,” and in his “Come Home, Dear Father, Come Home,” was a temperance sermon that never has seemed to lose its plaintive appeal. He was the author of "Grandfather’s Clock,” and at one time member of the music firm of Root & Cady, Chicago. His songs had a great vogue in their time and still continue in the melodies of the old days. Several of Work’s famous old

'GOOD IDEA TO RADIATE JOY I I Injunction to “Keep Smiling" l> One ■ of the Beat That Mankind Hm to Recollect Cultivate your smiles uncoaeingly, Rlrls. This doos not moan that you must Bit around subway trains and street cars wearing an insipid grin, Not at all! It docs not even mean that you must actually smile In the literal sense of the word. Hut your exprenolon can he smiling without your Ups being parted at all. If you are thinking about pleasant occurrences your mouth will turn up at the comers and your eyes will sparkle, quite naturally and without any effort. This will keep your face attractive and youthful, even when you have passed the borders of youth itself. It you wish to retain your beauty as long as possible, don’t form the habit of letting your lips drop und al! your face muscles sag downward when your fpx-f is in repose. Just stand before tho mirror anti pull your lips down to get the effect. Draw your mouth down and scowl a bit and you will see Just how ugly those drooping lines can make you look. Then smile, not artifcally but naturally, Just a little around the lips, but a great deal in the eyes and you will see how pretty you can appear. If every woman realized how much harm she is doing to herself when she sits in tho street cars and subways with her face muscles all relaxed and drooping she would try the smile cure for ugly lines. The smile can bring about magical results in lifting a girl from the ranks of plainness to the heights of actual beauty.—Pittsburgh Dispatch. PLANT HAS CONSTANT MOTION As Long as It Lives the Leaves of Vegetable Growing In India Jerk Spasmodically. Perpetual motion machine of the botanist is a plant which grows in India. It is never quiet. Its leaves are dancing day and night, and neither the dead atmosphere of a tropical noon nor the soft breezes of twilight are able to soothe it with their restful lullabies. Botanists call it the telegraph plant. Its motions differ from those of the aspen tree, which is the American type of almost perpetual motion in nature. Tho aspen leaf is affected by the lightest breeze, and quivers. The leaves of the telegraph plant have a sort of Jerking motion. J Each leaf is divided into three leaflets. The outside pair move up and down in nervous little Jumps, as it they were being touched and shocked by some electric wire. The middle leaflet isn’t quite so lively, but it keeps up a continual motion, nevertheless. The only time the plant is quiet is when it is dead. It belongs to a big family of tropical plants known by tho name of demodum. Members of this family are characterized bv long leaves, small flowers and flat Jointed pods. Crimean War. Russian encroachment upon Turkey w was the direct cause of the Crimean s. I war. For many years previous to 1853, n Russia had cast a covetous eye upon [g Constantinople and the sultan’s possessions and had contrived In various treaties to lay the foundation of a claim to something like a protectorate N over the Christians of the Greek church in Turkey amounting to threefourths of the sultan’s subjects in Europe. As early as 1844 Emperor Nicholas had proposed to divide with Britain the inheritance of the “Sick Man,’’ as he called Turkey, and in 1853 he began to urge his claims In a form which Turkey could not accept - without ceasing to remain an indo- , pendent state. The o'ther great pow--1 ors intervened as mediators, but in *• vain, and meantime a Russian armj took possession of Moldovia and Wallacia. After nearly a year of fruitless c diplomacy, negotiations were broken ’ off, and Britain and France agreed to , support Turkey by armed interven--2 tion. War was proclaimed against - Russia on March 28, 1854. The war thus undertaken lasted two years. The Fly In the Ointment. Mrs. Higgins, says Answers, was an incurable grumbler. She grumbled at everything and everyone. But at last the vicar thought he had found some-; thing about which she could make no complaint; the old lady’s crop of potatoes was certainly the finest for miles round. “Ah, for once you must be well pleased.” he said, with a beaming smile, as he met her in the village street. "Everyone’s saying how splendid your potatoes are this year.” The old lady glowered at him as she answered: “They’re not so poor. But where's j the bad ones for the pigs?” A Woman's Job. “Writing,” said Mrs. Gertrude Atherton, the novelist and femlninlst, "is a woman’s Job. Men ought to do things, not write about them. When a man does nothing but write his hands get soft and his character, too.” Mrs. Atherton pneo nearly fell in love with a man who was a writer. But a thought saved her in time, she confides to an interviewer. “I thought: ‘Good heavens! tho man does nothing but sit on a three-legged stool and write little stories all day and peddle them about to the magazines; he might as well be crocheting!’ so I promptly recovered.”

Let us again urge you to place your order for a Fairfield “Six-46” as soon as you possibly can. Don’t wait too long—don’t be too sure that you can buy to just as good advantage thirty or sixty days from now. For—remember —there were three purchasers for each “Six-46’ ’ that we could turn out last year. And, up to the present time, there is every indication that this “sold out” condition will be repeated. Then, also remember that the cost of manufacturing materials and labor is still soaring. Already,several manufacturers have found it necessary to increase the list price of their cars, and more announcements of this kind are undoubtedly coming. By early buying, we have done everything that we possibly could to protect ourselves and you. But in the face of a constantly rising market, we may be forced to increase prices proportionately. From the present outlook there is no other alternative for we flatly refuse to compromise on the quality of our cars. We shall continue to use only the best materials —no matter how

HENRY CLAY BARNAE3EE—MASTER OF MIRTH IN MUSIC America’s Master of Mirth is the loving title given to Henry Clay Bar- : nabce, known in American and Europe as one of the most active sing- . ers of, opera roles of his time. He was the orignial sheriff of Nottingham in “Robin Hood,” and player Sir Jo3seph Porter in “Pinafore,” the first
I time it was presented in America. He , was for over sixty years known as ! the only man who could song “The Cork Leg” and the ballad “O Loving Heart, Trust On,” written for him by Gottschalk, the famous composer. Shortly after the civil war Mr. Barnabee began playing with the Boston Museum company and later began his work as an entertainer, making a circuit of minor cities and towns, combining music and demlamations. Mr. Barnabee was a leading spirit of the old Boston Ideal Opera company, which continued for many years as one of the most popular musical organizations ever known to American opera lovers. In later life he retained his splendid quality of voice still singing many of the songs which he made famous. “O Loving Heart, Trust on.” and others of the Barnabee songs are to be found in that beautiful volume, ‘Heart Songs”, now being disrtibut*-d ■ by this paper.
