A new portrait of Miss May Sutton, and regarded as the best ever
made of the young American, who has defeated all opponents In the con¬
tests for first honors among the women tennis players both in this country
and across the water. In England Miss Sutton’s record is .-egarded as sim¬
ply marvelous.
Home-Made Marcel.
For a long time the professional
hairdresser had a monopoly of the
marcel wave business. The fashion¬
able coiffure required a professional
touch, which, it seems, could not be
secured at the hands of the amateur.
Many a girl in th» privacy of her
bedroom has wasted hour after hour
in the endeavor to “marcel” her own
bair, only to succeed in making a
m ass of burned or tangled tresses

An Appreciated Attention.
Limmer’s famous restaurant used
to have the character of being a ren¬
dezvous of viveurs; in fact, it was
averred that so many of its habitues
suffered from delirium tremens that
when some one, who was not of that
persuasion, was dining there and a
mouse came on the table and began
to nibble a piece of bread a sympa¬
thetic waiter observed to him:
“Don’t be afraid, sir, it’s a real
mouie.”—Graphic.
Old Potatoes Made New.
The “rejuvenated potato” is the
latest form of adulterated food to
which State Food Commissioner R.
W. Dunlap’s attention has been
called. Local dealers are treating po¬
tatoes of the crop of 1906 with some
liquid that peels off the skin after
the manner of the “new potatoes
and at the same time gives the pota¬
to the characteristic pink tinge.

at one end the claws by which the j
carpet is knee grasped, and at Beneath the opposite the j
end a cushion.
knee cushion is a metal plate to pre- j
vent friction. In using the device
the teeth are set in the carpet at p -
requisite distance from its edge, the
operator then forcing the device for-

tages of this stretcher is the ability
to hold it with the knee, permitting
the operator to use both hands to '
drive the tacks. There is but little
likelihood of the carpet slipping . back , , i

Smokestacks and Education.
That 5,000 or 6,000 men and their
families should have built for them¬
selves so well appointed a city as
Spartanburg, S. C., seemed surprising,
writes Arthur Page,’ in the World’s
Work. The president of one of the
banks told me the reason: “Two
things made it,” he said, “smoke¬
stacks and education.”

WARM PRAISE FOR AMERICA..
Tribute of Prof. Kuhnemann, Who
s P ent Two Years at Harvard.
A most appreciative description of
American university and home life is
given in “Wessermann’s Monatsehrif- i
ten,” by Prof. Eugene Kuhnemann,
who passed two years in Harvard as -
exchange professor. The arrange- i
ments for study, the close comrade- I
ship of the students, the beautiful
surroundings, and the general tone of I
culture are subject.'? for the prot'es
sor’s warmest praise. The lecture
halls, the students’ dormitories, the j j
collections, and libraries, and the ex
perimental laboratories lie holds up I
prevailing as patterns calm to the and world, quiet he while consid- the j
ers as eminently conducive to study,
A large share of his admiration is
reserved for the home life of the
American city. The comfort and
beauty of the house interiors made
a deep impression on him, and he
tells his readers that they have much
to learn in that respect. He was
struck by the roominess and capital
arrangement of the various apari
ments, all of which he found exactly
suiteil l0 their destined uses, with
out display,
■ Until he visited America, it, had
never occurred to him how far Ger- j
manv la?ged behind in regard to cul- I
ture In America, as in England and ;
tQ a grea ^ extant in France, culture

In Germany, owing to the long per
j Q( j poverty she had passed
trough, compelling each to strug
gle only for himself, no upper stra- :
turn of society such as is generally
recognized as forming the foundation j

The epoch of prosperity now being
enjoyed by Germany is, however, the ;
professor concludes, creating a new
order of things, and, with its reeog

empire is striding steadily toward the
goal which will enable it also to take
its proper place in the forefront of
culture.—Berlin correspondence of
the New York Times.
A One-Armed Man’s Work.
Architect and builder of Ills own
designs, as well as a saver of souls
and projector of charities and philan¬
thropies, is Chaplain John D. Jones,
of No. 1565 Eas f . 84th street. The
chaplain is the owner of what has
been ca’led one of the best construct¬
ed concrete porches in the city, and
he, a one armed man, did every
of the work himse'i The handsome,
massive pillars are mereiy two old
stovepipes filled with broken pieces
of brick and rock, surmounted by two
large oval fish globes, solidly stuffed
with broken bits of rock, the whole
being neatly plastered over with con- |
crete. The perforated foundation cf
the porch was made by cutting the j
wooden framework full of small I
square holes and fitting to each hole
a wooden peg. When the concrete
had been plastered over the entire
surface the chaplain knocked the
pegs out from the inner side, and
the desired result was attained.—
