English Poet Laureates Long Lived but Prosy

■ , I Poet laureates of England have been a long lived race. IhK'tor Bridge* . —he was.a physician, !>•<*— was eighty l | five when he passed on. The- ages'of . i bis three Immediate predecessor* in the -office—Alfred Austin. Tennyson | and Wordsworth—averaged eighty. j Among tin- d.-t nguish.d. laureates of an earlier period. Ben Jonson lived to be sixty-three and Dryden to be sixtynine. But the- record among laureate* 1., held by the actor-manager Colley < 'ibber. who died in 1751 at the age of eighty-seven. As a jaiet Colley Cibber was terrible I and King Edward ha<l no great ppln- ■ ion of the poetry of Alfred Austin, poet laureate at the time he ascended the throne. He was net. alone in that opinion. “I always thought that Mr. Austin's appointment was not a good one." he wrote to. Lord Salisbury, then prime Pedant Ridiculed Sir James Mackintosh (1785-1832). eminent statesman and historian, had such a pedantic outlook on things that Sydney Stnith (1771-1845), contetn-. IKirary divine and wit. said that a Mackintosh dissertation on pepper would probably run after this fashion: "Pepper may philosophically be described as a dusty and highly pulverised seed of an oriental fruit, an article rather of condiment than diet, which, dispersed lightly over the sur face of food. with no other rule than the caprice of the consumer, communicates pleasure rather than affords nutrition, and by adding a trop leal flavor to the gross and succulent viands of the North, approximates the different regions of the earth, explains the objects of commerce, and Justifies the industry of man."—Exchange.

Sit up like a man and let Roberta pin your medals on.” , Sir George raised himself up, but ; only to grasp Ray by tiie shoulder. ! "Give me the payroll receipts and this car and you can ride back with Miss Macßeth." "Good Lord! Walt a minute!” Ray protested as he fumbled for the receipts. "Wliat ll I tell Roberta?” "Tell her I've gone. That will satisfy her. She Isn't in the least concerned about me." Ray regarded him curiously, slinking his head. "What’s the big idea, leaving me to face the music and Roberta Macßeth alone?" "I wouldn’t do It. old fellow, if I didn’t know you liked her." ’‘Don t you?’-’ Sir Georges face changed- in a curious way. . "l.ike her! My dear fellofc . she’s the only thing I don’t like •\\ iwHy thought you were nuts about iHWr' It’s been even betting in the oflictAhat that’s why you came over." J « • "What!” "To cop Macßeth’s daughter and her pile;" Ray saw what 'lie had done ttierf. Sir George’s ■ face whitened so that involuntarily Ray reached out a hand. "Say—" His companion failed to see the hand. “Did you think so, too?" he askisl hoarsely. .=~ Rav hesitated. "Well, personally. I • think you-were after the money.” • I wouldn’t ask Miss Macßeth to marry me If S.indisbrae were in ruins ami I hadn’t a penny to buy j myself food." "That point being clear and understood.” said Roberta, who-unnoticed had left her car with Bonaventura i and naikev! up tiehind Ray. "you stay J in that ‘ ir and go home while Ray rjdes with me. Eather’s heard from New York. The New York ear was held up on the Jersey meadows. There was a running tight. One of tiie car crew was hurt. On your way.’’ with a surprisingly friendly still [e.

A. few months - later King Edwfcrd sent to Salisbury some verses and pointedly called his attention to the ••trash which the poet laureate writes" —the letter is quoted in Sir Sidney Lee's “Life of Edward." Silkworm Cultivation For centuries, the cultivation of the silkworm was a royal industry. em- ; presses tending the precious grub and developing the cult in all its branches until what was once an empress' pastime became an imperial art of an imperial people. Not only every Chinese empress and all the ladies of the nobility, but even the peasant women of scattered countryside have practiced regularly the art of sericulture which for centuries was known only to China. The secret was guarded until the transferred allegiance of a Chinese princess caused her to smuggle silkworm eggs, the worms and mulberry seeds to the home of her hew lord, an Indian prince.— Grace Thompson Seton. In "Chinese Lanterns.*’ Pope Guided by Council The pope of Rome personally does not annul or dissolve a marriage. When there Is petition for the annulment of a marriage in the Roman Catholic church or in which a Roman Catholic Is Involved on the ground of fraud, want of age, want of consent or other valid reason, the matter is considered by the Rota, a supreme council of the Roman Catholic church, which declares its findings and the pope makes a declaration in accordance with such findings.

It is a comparatively easy matter for thi* hearing' contractor to add sections to a radiator. If the radiator is in a recess w .o-re it is- ,mp -s.ble to expand it horizontally, a radiator of a ; different type may be substituted and the number of square feet of radia-' : tion may be increased by having a i higher radiator or by having a radia- j tor with niore tubes. » The home owner who Is thinking of j Increasing the radiation in his home i should.by all tneans have this work done In the fall and ’uot postpone the job until cold weather sets in. Not only will such postponement cause in- i convenience to the family in that the heating plant will be shut down at the time when it is needed, but winter is the time when most heating contractors are busy with repair job’s and then every Job has to wait its turn. Whether the boiler will be able to ' take care of addt’d radiation is a matter which only tin experienced and competent heating contractor can- determine. If the boiler as it stands is not adequate, there are efficiency devices which may be added to increase its capacity.

Roof Colors Are Deemed ' an Attraction to Home Roof colors play a far more inipor- ■ tant part in making our modern homes attractive than was dreamed of a generation ago. Then, it seemed to be considered a matter of course that the roof must be a dull, drab shade, lending nothing to the color scheme of house or surroundings. But in recent years color has made Its app«irance on the roofs of our homes—-col r which secures perfect harmony or definite contrast—sometimes a startling contrast Asbestos cemeni shingles can he procured in any number of hues to make a fitting and colorful roof. One tapered shingle which Is espec.ally popular with home owners is rough textured and throws deep shadows along the roci lines. Another with quarter-inch thickness may be procured in seven \onfading colors. And sdU another has a mottled surface of red, black and gray on one side and solid gray on the reverse, either of which can be turned to the weather. Combinations of orange and,black

Two great improvements are iteing achieved in modern homes, more bathrooms and more beautiful bathrooms.

Fireplace With Special Flues for Country Place "An excellent fireplace for a small country place, a camp, a detached studio, or a week-end house, is one with a special kind of flups. which are built on either side, opening at top and bottom and covered by gratings on the outside,” Margaret Collins advises. "From the upper gfiatings comes the warm air from the fire which has risen through the flues instead of going up the chimney. The other two gratings near the floor let in the air necessary to make 'the flues draw. Many small houses have the stairway leading from the living room. During the chilly days before such bouses are closed, or before ibe furnace Is lit, the heat from these fireplaces Is quite sufficient for warming upper rooms, since the heat, with its tendency to rise, goes up the stairs.” — b Uom» and Field.
