4. ^ Jjjbtho days of the old stnge conch
v Hancock house was one of the
. leading hotels of nobtheasteru Massar
chneetts and the first place to which
travelers resorted for refreshments.
- '< . Among the distinguished men who
* /*' ' ha^e been entertained there was Dan|el
Webster, goipg to and fito his
home on the old Plymouth caach. On
account of Mr. Webster's liberality In
dispensing good cheer It was frequently
a long time before the coach was

ster watt always generous In his tips to
the stable boys and bell hops of those
ancient days and history says that he
often threw $5 goldpleces to the scrambling
boys In the hotel, yard.
The present structure was built In
1837, but several years ago the ground
floor was remodeled Into stores and
only the upper part was used as the
hotel proper. When Adams academy
was In Its prime the place was used aa
a boarding house for students who
came to Qulncy from other cities and
states aDd were obliged to make their
abode In the city of presidents.
TURNING TO HOME GARDENS
Indications Are That People Are Beginning
to Realize the Danger of
a Food Famine.
A local seed store was crowded with
customers.
i "What does this mean?" the proprietor
was asked.
I guess It means that other people
are thinking what I do," he said,
"that unless food production Is speeded
up there'll be famine conditions In
this country In 1021. Farmers say they
n't get help in order to produce our
"TEood as usual, and It's up to every man
to help himself. We run as high as
^ 1,200 customers a day here. This Is In
addition to a big mall-order business.
It's going to keep up like this all
through the month, too. It did last
year."
The seed man said that sales Indicated
that persons?who decided to retire
from the home-garden business,
now that the war Is over, have
changed their ideas, and that the number
of home gardens Is Increasing In
.if i. ft?ad of diminishing.
"" * *. He--added that It Is strange that
' While there was mnch crop shortage
last year seeds of all kinds, with the
probable exception of peas, are In ample
supply.?Indianapolis News.
Stenographer Extraordinary.
Two members of the bar were trying
a replevin suit In the superior court
recently and in the course of the trial
got Into a sharp wrangle?as lawyers
sometimes do?over the admission of a
certain piece of evidence. The wrangle
resolved Itself Into an oral battle In
which both lawyers tried to talk at
once.
They spoke in loud tones and at a
rapid-fire gait When the smoke had
cleared away and the CAse was over
they were quite surprised to learn that
the court stenographer had been able
to get down In his book every word
they had said, despite the fact they
were both talking at the same time.
The clerk of courts commented on the
feat
"Oh," remarked one of the lawyers,

Fading Shrinea of Oriental Splendor.
To me, after revisiting the East
after an absence of ten years, It
seems as If all Its splendid past and
all its present discontent were recorded
and symbolized in the Imperial palaces
of Peking, Seoul and Tokyo. Ten
years ago all three were the habitations
of emperors, sacred spots from
vhose mysterious depths Issued the
edicts whereat men trembled and
obeyed. Today the Son of Heaven
r.nd the Lord of the Morning Calm
have gone their ways, to Join the
mournful company of kings In exile.

she Is relieved of most of the oldtime
drudgery.
The new easy Clean Easy method
of washing has taken all of the misery
out of "blue Monday." Now, the
wise woman buys a bar of Clean
Easy Naptholeine Soap. Soaks her
clothes over night. Cuts up V4 bar
of Clean Easy in a 4%-gallon tutrllf " "
1 water. Walts for it to dissolve and
i bolls her clothes for ten minutes;
rinses, blues and dries. Presto, in a
few minutes an average week's washing

This marvelous wash soap has done 1
more for women than anything since
the sewing machine. It sounds like a
wonderful dream to think of getting
your washing done without scrubbing
and rubbing and all sorts of mean
work. But it's a live fact.
In these times of high prices you
will find Clean Easy washing a wonderful
revelation. All heavy clothes I
can be easily and cheaply cleaned. |

IS YOUR BABY
THE PROPER WEIGHT?
Dr. Holt, the eminent baby specialist,
says that baby's weight tells very ,
accurately how well it is thriving. He I
recommends, the first year at least,
keeping a weight chart. The average
baby weighs at birth 7 to TVi pounds;
three months, 12 to 13 pounds; six
months, 15 to 16 pounds; one year,
20 to 22 pounds.
If your baby isn't weighing what it
should, give it immediate attention.
The first place to look for the cause
of underweight is the stomach and digestive
organs, because if they do not
function properly, baby's body is not
properly nourished. Symptoms of
poor digestion are usually sleeplessrtoca
-f rof fnlnnoo 1/??- ~ ^
??vu..f 14W1UIIIVOO, U1 appetite, tuilstipation
diarrhoea and sometimes a
slight fever.
This condition may be easily corrected
with a (food laxative, such as
"Baby Ease," a perfected preparation
by a baby specialist. The castor laxatives
have a tendency to irritate and
are too harsh for the delicate membrane
of baby's stomach. "Baby Ease"
is easy-acting, non-irritating, does not
produce over-action or leave baby constipated.
It is a safe, harmless and
efficient laxative and corrective for
babies and children. If you see no improvement
after a few doses, take
baby to a physician. Ask your draggist
for "Baby Ease. ?Adv. ,

STAND IN WAY OF
Historic London Churches M>?-? e
to Qivs Way to the Demanj
Modern Progress. mt 1
Nineteen historic city churclups In
the heart of London, 13 of then* the
work of Sir Christopher Wren, nave
been marked for destruction by a commission
appointed by the bishop of
London to consider the whole question
of the city churches. In seven
cases It Is proposed to preserve, for
their architectural and historic value,
the towers of the churches. In the
other cases these old monuments,
dating back to the seventeenth century
and the great fire of London, would
disappear.
This ia the recommendation of the
bishop's commission, but already
strong protests have arisen and the
Society for the Protection of Ancient
Buildings hap announced that-It will
take every possible step in making the
strongest protest.
The value of the sites of theee
churches Is placed at nearly $8,50G?000,000,
situated as they are In the
great business center or London, between
St. Paul's and the Tower and
little to the north of that line. In addition
to this enormous return from
the church property the commission
expects to realize an Income of $120,000
a year from the benefices after
setting aside $81,000 a year for the
salaries of certain of the clergy concerned.
For the site of a single
church, that of All Hallows, Lombard
street, Barclay's hank has offered $2,5500,000,
and the value of the site of St.
Dunstnn's-In-the-Enst has been estimated
at $1,250,000.

Ancient Cornerstone Laying 1
The custom of laying the cornerstone
of a public building with ceremonies
was practiced by the ancients.
At the laying of the cornerstone when
the capltol of Rome was rebuilt a procession
of vestal virgins, robed in
white, surrounded the stone and consecrated
It with libations of living
water. A prayer to the gods followed,
and then the magistrates, priests, senators
and knights laid hold of the
ropes and moved the mighty stone to
Its proper position. In a hollow cut
In the stone were placed Ingots of
gold, sliver and other metals which
ko/l A* - - -
uuu uui ucvu HiciiKu in any rurn&ce.
With the Jews the cornerstone was
considered an emblem of power, and
they also performed ceremonies at Its
laying. In medieval times the rite
was taken up by the order of Freemasons
and has by them been brought
down to modern days, the Masonic !
ceremony of laying a cornerstone being
symbolical.
Out of Place.
Annt Hannah came home from
church the other Sunday morning distinctly
out of sorts. When asked what
was wrong she answered that she
thought there was not the proper reverence
In that church. Pressed to give
further explanation she* Anally did so.
"I didn't like any of the choir," she
complained. "They were too fickle
looking to sing hymns and I thought
It perfectly sacrilegious when that soprano
got up In those slippers with the
high, thin heels and sang, 'How Firm
a Foundation, Ye Saints of the Lord."*
The family she was visiting smiled
but later admitted to themselves thar
It was Indeed Incongruous although
not exactly sacrilegious.
Work Poor.
Charles M. Schwab at one of hi*
Loretto dinner parties was talklm
about a man who was vainly beseech- 1
lng the banks for a loan.
"He's a rich man, too," said Mr.
Schwab; "but he's work poor."
"Work poorT' said a guest.
"Yes, work poor," Mr. Schwab repented.
"You see, he's always got ao
many operations jn hand that he's always
short of money to finance them.
Work poor, I call It."
Then be smiled and added:
"ITc'i; one of those fellows who dig
so much that they're always In
hole." J
