PAVING QUESTION
INTERESTS MANY
(Continued On Page 4.)
Vitirifled brick for this street seems
to be ' favored by most of those who
believe that the thoroughfare should
be hardsurfaced, owing to its general
cleanliness, and to the fact that pav
ing bricks for use on heavy gra"des
are now made with a "bevel surface
on one side that will furnish a foot
hold for horses. In spite of this, how
ever, many of the property owners
believe that the best foothold can be
provided by a macadam paving.
The use of stone blocks is not fav
ored by many people, owing to the
experience in other cities, notably
Seattle and Tacoma, where it has
been found that under heavy traffic
conditions the Belgian block pave
ment wears almost as smooth as
asphalt.
Mr. Yale's report set forth the dif
ferent grades on which the several
forms of paving were most generally
approved. Interested property owners
who have looked into this matter
think that on Seventh street a pav
ing suitable for the maximum grade
should be used on the entire length
of the thoroughfare, both to assure
the best traffic conditions, and to
give th street a uniform appearance.
- HOME AND MASTER
There is a perfectly good collie in
the city pound that Chief of Police
Shaw says some farmer ought to have.
It will cost a farmer a dollar to get
the dog out of the city's clutches,
but this dog will prove worth such
an investment. His father was a
pedigreed dog valued in New York
at $1,000. and the dog's mother was
almost of equal worth. This dog,
when a pup, was owned by Dr. N. C.
Strickland, who later sold him to N.
R. Lang, former mill manager for the
Willamette Pulp & Paper Company.
When Mr. Lang moved away the
dog returned to his former home and
became a canine derelict, and was
recently picked up by the dog-catcher
for running at large without a li
cense. Chief Shaw says the dog
would make a perfect ranch dog, and
deserves a better fate than that which
is awaiting him at the pound.

Policemen In Silk Hats.
Savona. Italy, is probably the only
town in the world where policemen
wear top hats. One cannot help won
dering what the policemen's "toppers"
look like after the officers have had a

Perhaps, however, Savona lives up to
the level of respectability indicated by
the silk tints and does not possess
hooligans.-Wide World Magazine.

Too Early
Perfection
By F. A. MITCH EL
Howard Chidester was an artist in
love with his art. . He began to make
pictures when he was a child and be
fore he was a man had become fa
mous. He painted all day and some
times would have painted at night had
it been practicable. At first it was
love for his work alone that gave him
an interest in it but in time he grew
accustomed to the praises it brought
him. Between the ages of twenty-five
and thirty-five he would. go into a gal
lery where one of his masterpieces
hung on purpose to hear the. encomi
ums heaped upon it Persons might
compliment him upon other gifts and
he possessed several in no small de
greewithout exciting in him the
slightest pleasure, it was to hear his
praises ns a portrayer of nature that
found a place in his hart.
Chidester was thirty-five years old
when he painted the great picture of
his life. A young lady one day drove
up to his studio in her carriage, which
bore her family crest, and. alighting,
sent up her card. The artist's eye
lighted with pleasure. Miss Eleanor
Gray, whose name was on the card,
was the most beautiful woman of her
day. When she appeared at functions,
at the opera, driving out as she passed
every head was turned to look at her.
At the time she made this visit to
Chidester her beauty was simply per
fect. Not a line appeared anywhere
on her face,- her complexion was a
most exquisite pink and white, and her
figure was a combination of ravishing
curves. .
"I have called," she said, "to ask if
you could be induced to paint my por
trait I know it is a great deal to ask
of the most famous living artist but
you will, won't you?"
Chidester stood gazing at her, wrap
ped in admiration of her beauty, for
some time before he replied.
"I can do greater justice to your
beauty." he said, "by using you. as a
model in a picture, I am painting rep
resenting springtime." . ;
"Paint me to show me at my best"
she replied. "I have nothing but my
beauty to interest me to be proud of."
"And I," he replied, "could not live
without my art."
The most artistic dressmakers were
applied to for designs for a costume
which would give the best effect and
one was selected ravishing in its sim
plicity. The head, neck, bust,, the feet
and lower limbs below the knee were
bared : the hair was partly concealed.
Chidester saw boore him a perfection
of beauty, and he idealized it. The re
sult was "his chef d'oeuvre. the mar
velous painting which was to him
what the Sistine Madonna was to Ra
phael. The world saw and wondered.
What Chidester and all others deem
ed a crowning glory was in fact the
misfortune of his life. He had been
climbing, had reached the crest and
must begin his descent. For a time he
did not realize, this, then feared it
and at last it 'fell upon him like a
death stroke. He hunted everywhere
for another model that would inspire
him like the last one. He found one
equally attractive of its kind, but a
different style, a child. He read sto
ries of children by Hans Christian An
dersen to fill himself with their inno
cence, then began bis work. It was
successful, but it was not his master
piece. Then rhe consciousness that
be had begun his descent came to him,
and he fell into melancholy.
Before a final giving up of all hope
he determined to paint his former
model. Miss Eleanor Gray, in a new
conception. He hurried to her house
and seut up his card. JYhen the lady
came down to receive him he noticed
a tinge of melancholy on her face.
"Why do you look sad?" he asked.
She placed a finger beside one of
her eyes and said: "I have discovered
a line there. Do you not see it?"
Chidester declared that he did not.
But this did not reassure her. She de
clared that she had bloomed and must
now pass into decay. In vain he told
her that she had not reached the rich
est beauty to which she was destined,
that he would paint one more picture
of her representing her as "Summer."
He could not excite a hope. That lit
tle line wuld multiply till it cov
ered her wnole person. Where there
was one today there would be several
tomorrow, and in time she would be
covered witi. wrinkles.
"No," she said, not knowing that he
was pleading for himself as well as
for her. "I have passed the summit
What you painted was the perfection
of my beauty. What you would paint
now would be a shade lower in the
scale."
A look of distress crossed his face,
and she asked what it meant
"You have been describing me as
well as yourself," he said. "I, too,
have climbed the hill and stand look
ing into the valley. I can never make
another picture like the one I made of
you. From this time forward my pow
ers will wane."
"I cannot understand that" she said.
"You are in your prime. There are
years of work before you. You will
climb higher."
"No. I will not climb higher, but had
I not met you I might have been long
er in climbing. Your perfection of
beauty, coming to you before you
were ven in midace. brought my per
fection in mv art long before it should
have come to me. Your realization, as
mine, will '-rry us down the quicker.
Our descent will be slow, but it will
be sure." 4

By JAMES A. EDGERTON
, THE POETRY OF THE FUTURE.
Poetry S going to dominate the next
age just as a great historic religion domi
nated an age that passed some time ago
and a spirit' of scientific research after
facts dominates the age that is passing. -
Now, In a certain pessimistic philosophy
which poets wilt always resent there is a
disposition to see in the creation of our
earth a mere accident in which the pow
er behind its harmonies is an eyeless
blunderer, hideous grinning novelty, a
blood stained jester. The poetry that is
to command the spirit of the next age Is
to have nothing to do with this spirit.
There are a central philosophy and har
mony to life.
The future, of poetry is immense, be
cause In poetry, which is worthy of Us
high destinies, our race as time goes on
will come to feel an even surer and surer
stay. Alfred Noyes, Famous English Poet
Now in America.
Amid all the wails that no more po
etry will be written it is comforting to
find one voice from a man of common
sense and vision.
Poetry will never die till love dies,
till religion dies, till music, art and
beauty die.
Mr. ."Vo.ves recognizes the relation
between poetry and religion and pre
dicts that the two will become more
and more closely identified as the
years bring In the nobler race.
Real poetry jind real religion have
always been identified. The old He
brew prophets were the loftiest poets.
Dante's "Divine Comedy," Milton's
"Paradise Lost" and Goethe's "Faust"
are among the loftiest poems of any
age. find their themes are religious.
Wordsworth. Coleridge and Tennyson
sing ever of faith and immortality.
Burns was an apostle of the religion of
humanity. Even Shelley, with all his
professed atheism. ' is intensely reli
gious in substance if not in form.
Of the great school of American
poets Longfellow. Lowell. Bryant and
Whittier breathe religion in almost
every line. Walt Whitman preached
the religion of democracy. Emerson,
whom Mr. Noyes pronounces the great
est American poet, was a modern re
ligious prophet.
Indeed, the poet and prophet have
ever leeu one. They will continue to
be oue as long us, men long for im
mortality, as long as men love har
mony. The golden age of poetry is not past.
It is yet to come. .'
May its greatest voices be heard In
our own land!
