The memorial to Mary Baker Eddy, the discoverer and founder of Chris tian Science, erected in Mt. Auburn cemetery, Cambridge, Mass., was to day turned over to The Christian Science Board of Directors by Elbert S. Barlow of New York, who had charge of its construction. Over a year and a half has been required to complete it. Christian Scientists throughout the world have contribut ed, as expressions of sentiment, the entire cost of over $150,000. The memorial is of Bethel white granite and consists of an open circu lar colonnade of eight columns fifteen feet in height surmounted by a corn ice and cresting. The space inside the colonnade is to be rilled with growing flowers. The columns rest on a stylo- bate of three steps, which also rest, at ' one side, on a broad platform of Pompton pink ganite and, at the oth er, which is about five feet lower, on a double flight of circular steps. These are flanked on each side by a large pylon. The pylons were exhib ited a short time ago at the . Ameri can Institute of Architecture in New York, and were pronounced by several experts to be the finest pieces of carved granite ev.er executed. The detail is elaborated to an extent never 1 1 1 it ji For early flowers and vege- H- tables.

The Easter Hat Though March winds blow and rage around, And snow lies thick upon the ground; I do not care a snap for that It's time to buy my Easter hat. I wrap up well in coat of fur, Like Arctic sea adventurer, And leave my warm steam heated flat, To go and buy my Easter hat Now up and down from shop to shop, At each in turn I kindly stop, Try on their stocks and glibly chat But do not buy my Easter hat At last I'm weary as can be, It's growing dusk and, oh, dear me! I've lost my muff of civet-cat f Now I canlt buy my Easter hat! But soon I find my precious muff, l,And hurry homeward, tired enough, inougft pleased to una my purse sou fat I Didn't buy my Easter hat. With April yet some time away, J'U go again some other day. And then I'll take my husband, Mat, To help me buy my Easter hat. Chile raises its best tobacco from seed obtained in Cuba. 1 1 i ft ''I "ff FOR.

An editor in the far west dropped into church for the first time in many years, says Tit Bits. The minister was in the very heart of the sermon. The editor listened for a while and then to suffer. It's a habit the haircut is, among men with densely populated heads. But it is no ordinary habit It's a habit a man has to hire another man to practice for him. There are fashions in haircuts, as in everything else. The old fasliioned haircut circled the base of a man's brain and stqppod. But today it goes on down the back of his neck to see what his collar bone's doing. The lead pencil has a history extend ing over several hundred years, for it claimed that a manuscript of The opMlus, attributed to the thirteenth century, shows evidence of having' been ruled with a black lead pencil, ' nd an article of Conrad Gesner of j Zurich in the sixteenth century dis tinctly mentions an article for writ ing made of wood and a piece of black lead.
