"Oh me!" sighed the Goldenrod th as the gentle breeze blew her green Stems back and forth playfully. 'Day after day it's just the Same Wearing thing over and over again." { "Well, what in the world 4s the trouble now?' asked her neighbor, | Mrs. Larkspafr. "We can't be chang- ing every day, mor can beautitul." | : "That's just jt," sighed 4he dis- * contented Goldenrod. "If I have {o grow beside this dusty road I don't "see. why I can't at least have one gay-colored flower to grace my old, dusty leaves." "Why, your sister before you had a glorious crown of gold, and when the children who travelled the road here saw her, they exclaimed in joy * because she was ®0 very beautifu!! Just be patient, little Goldenrod, the day is coming when you'll toss your bead with pride. Always remember there's work for every one dn this world, and that you have your work, too." But Goldenrod sighed and dropped her green bonnet, They had all told | her of the wonderful change that%vas expected of her some day, but tha: day seemed farther and farther away © and Goldenrod had almost lost heart Waidting for its coming. "I can't see what so small a plan' as I can do, indeed I can't," she sigh- jed, and nothing her neighbors could jsay seemed to cheer her. Day after day went by and even singing birds, the buzzing of the and the fluttering of the but- les' wings didn't seem to maks any happier for little Gold- Then ome morning, bright ly. Goldenrod discovered the y glint of gold along the of her tip-top branches, and & cry of delight she called to friends. 'See, I told you so!" laughed "he tiny vlade of grass. "I told you so! 'Within a day or two your crown will be golden all over." Sure enough, one morning, i. pL to greet the breeze. "Now, #f I only lived where soms- one could see me and enjoy my beau- ty--but that's what comes of living on a road so far away from folks," she sighed. Even her golden crown didn't seem to make Goldenrod hap- py. She sighed and complained all das long. Then one day a strange thing hap- pened. Goldenrod heard someone sobbing. She looked down, and saw a dear little Ladybug who had lost he: way and had wandered far from Ber home, Bending . her branches, Goldenrod asked the cause of her "I'm lost!" sobbed Ladybug. "I came away without my machine which tells me one direction from another, and I dont know which way to go tq fly back home." Then she wipcd her eyes and look- od up to see who was. speaking to ber, and when she sped Goldenrod she jumped up and gave a cry of de- t. : "Why, you dear!' she cried. "Here you are, the compass of the wood- lands, and here I am complaining be- joause I left my compass at homa:" we all be | simple. A stand why Ladybug was so glad tc | her. "Didn't you know that you Gola- enrods always polot to the north and that you're called the Compass of the Woodland ?'} cried the Ladybug, and king Gd nrod Ladybug quickly ly flew away in the direction Gelden- rods crown g-the north. Goldenrod nodded, and . smiled happily to herself. At last 'small as she was, she had received her golden { crown and had found her value to | the world. "I'm Lost!" Sobbed Ladybug RARE MODELS OF ANCIENT SHIPS Replica of "One That Cost Charles 1. His Head Valued at $25,000, rtis in New York Herald Pin to" 'the Architectural League exhibition, now being held in the Metropolitan Museum 'of Art, stand in wonder and admiration be- fore a glass case in which is the model of a fine old seventeenth cen- tury ship of the line, the Sovereign of the Seas. Few of them, perhaps, know that it was this ship that cost King Charles of England his crown and his head. The same rivalry for the greatest navy in the world that is going on today was the tax-payers burden of 300 years ago. Charles I. built the Sovereign of the Seas in 1637 in re- Ply to Louis XIIL's great ship, La Courone, but the British king neg- lected the formality of calling parlia- ment to authorize the expenditure. The Sovereign of the Seas, then the most formidable war vessel afloat, was to have cost £13,000. When completed her cost was £41,000, an unheard-of sum in those days. It was the last straw that broke the back of the long-suffering British public, The model, however, holds addi- tional claim of interest, It is the most elaborate ship model ever built in this country. Twenty men worked on it for three years, and it cost ap- proximately $25,000. To the tiniest detail it is made exactly to scale, one-quarter inch to a foot, after the -| original plans of Phineas Pett, de- signer and builder of the first Sov- ereign of the Seas. The question arises naturally, why should so much labor end money be spent on a "toy ship'? The answer is Collecting ship models, old and new, is the latest fad. The Ship Model Society, scarcely a year old, recently opened its first public ex- hibition in the Fine Arts building, In West Fifty-seventh street, which is now going on, Among the members of the society, all ardent ship model "fans," are Newcomb Carleton, James A. Far- rell, H. H. Rogers, Sherman Hoylt, Junius Spencer Morgan, Irving R. Wiles, Arthur Curtis James, Henry W. Kent, Carleton T. Chapman, W, L, Aylward, Harrison Cady, Clifford H. Ashley, Breckinridge Long, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Allan Forbes, Booth Tarkington, H. O. Havemeyer, Jr, and George F. Baker, jr. Mr. Wiles, a well-known portrait painter, is president of the society. Fifteen years ago ship-model col- lecting was unknown in this country. Plone®r collectors picked np some of their most valuable prizes in Junk shops and water-front saloons for $5 and $10, These same models, in was: - pointing--straight rived in Montreal.

Dealers are importing models from abroad and find a ready market here. The germ of ship-model collecting may be said to have had its origin in an article which appeared in the Century magazine for August, 1911, written by Dana Carroll. It was en- titled Little Ships, An Accoun* of Model Collecting. Since that time the number of men who have taken up the hobby has steadily increased. The society was organized by Henry B. Culver about a year ago. Mr. Cul- ver is a model expert and has super- intended thé building of some of the best models made in the United States, including the Sovereign of the, Seas. The most interesting models are the 'prisoner of war" variety, so called because they were carved out of bone by French sailors in British prisons. Prior to the Napoleonic wars ivory carving was one of the chief industries of Dieppe. Many of these ivory workers were drafted into the French navy and fell into the hands of the British. It is said that they saved the bones from the.r food and clubbed together to buy materials to make the delicate-littie ships now so highly prized by collec- tors. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries British and French ships were built directly from modeis many of which are now preserved in national] museums. The finest col- lection in the world is in the Musea de Marine in the Louvre at Parnas, Here Admiral Paris of the French navy brought together all the old dockyard models. The same thing was doe in England by order of Willtam IV. It Is a source of regret to Ameri- can model collectors' that most of the original models of..the famous old Yankee clipper ships have been destroyed" Donald McKayPof Bos. ton, most famous designer and build- er of clippers in"the forties and fif- ties, left his collection of ship models to a niece. Unfortunately this wo- man had no eye for the artistic, and one cold winter the models were broken up and used as firewood. Among those she destroyed wera those of the Flying Cloud, Ligh:- ning, another Sovereign of the Seas, Nightingale, Great Republic, ete, Were these models in existence to- day they would be invaluable, The Lightning, fastest ship that ever sailed, was built by McKay for a British company. On her maiden day she made her record of 436 miles was the equivalent of nearly 5610 land miles at the rates of 21 1-2 miles an hour. There were mo steamships in those days thet approached this record by as much as 100 miles. It was not until 25 years had passed that the Arizona made 18 knots on her trial trip. When _the records of the Yankse clippers are recalled and the fact that at one time America was forc- ing England into a secondary posi- tion on the sea by building bettor ships and manning them with better navigators and crews, it seems wrong that the relics of our maritime glory have not been- more carefully preserved. It is the purpose of the Ship Model Society to establish a nautical museum with models, books and rec- ords of our navy and merchant fleets. Two or three members of the New York Yacht Club some years ago en- deavored to start a marine museum in New York, but without avail. The new society, with the keen interest its members take in their hobby, promises better results this time. Cough Is Bronchitis If neglected, it will weaken the throat and perhaps reach the lungs.

The Canadian National Exhibition, which opens in Toronto on Aug. 27, has little about it that is selfish or mercenary. In its bigness and its firm grasp upon the public it is a huge implement for national service. It is loved not for the personnel of its directorship, but for its effort and Power to do good to the community. It is a force, big and elemental, im- personal, irresistable. The institu- tional thought is the broad funda- mental principle underlying its srowth. It is the spirit of unselfish public service visualized and idealis- ed. It is successful because it keeps faith with its patrons, because the people are loyal and believe in it. It endeavors to lessen human burdens, to bring more leisure and comfort, to make life more worth living; te lighten the labor of the housewife, and even assist th cobbler at his bench; to make our ountry a better and more livable Place, and to build up a sympathetic understanding among all classes. It is not a joint stock company, and its members and directors have no interest in {its pro- gress save a patrigtic desire to stimu- late national d lopment, and to provide instruction and wholesome entertainment to its patrons. The di- rectors receive neither Pay nor re- ward except the gratification of see- ing their efforts year after year crowned with success. "Education-- Not Profits"--is its motto. - It is an exposition of the people, by the peo- ple, for the people. ' ---------------- Want Canned Fish.

As Clark Russel notes in one of his novels. . the skipper of the ship from Europe as he paced the deck with anxious eves upon his shortened canvas, fearing that it would be blown from the bolt ropes, very often saw a<tiny speck upon the horizon, watched it grow into a splendid ship wita 'every rag set.' saw her fling the stars and stripes to the gale as she went roaring up and then, with feel- ings that cannot be described, gazeq after her until she disappeared in the mists." And again another author: "A: British vessel, snugged down to reefed topsails and holding bare steerageway in the South 'Paeific or Indian ocean, would see a cloud of snow-white canvass burst out of the gloom and vanish like a ghost to Leeward--a Yankee clipper under royals."
