Marshal Cushing Presents Mar. Roosevelt
To the Public.

From the Washington Capital.
He has been out of college fifteen
wears. has Theodore Roosevelt, and he IS
thirty-seven, but he has been a MEMBER
of the assembly three years, has written
half a dozen books of value and no END
of magazine articles; knows about h"nt-
ing and ranching in the far west, for he
has tried it, and has been a civil service
commissioners long enough to trighten
Charles Lyman half to death. Don't you
rather like him now for the way he
works and fights? He is the president
of the police commission Of New YORK
and probably soon to be Harvard
overseer. He is no SLOUGH at tennis and
likes football. Probably he can punch
COW; certainly he can punch anybody
who tries to punch a friend OF his or
make trouble for any cause that he is
friendly TO- Notice that he is president
of the New York police commission, and
bear in mind that where Roosevelt sits
there is the head of the table-not that
he cares especially to have it that way,
but because things seem to be that way
from force of circumstances.
The hope of this nation, which is
great and grand, if these British men of
war don t'come into our waters too often
is said to be the fine young fellows bred
upon the farm. 1t is. 1t is also the chap
of equal mettle in his Drawn and brain
who refuses 10 be nurtured in the lap
of luxury. Mr.. Roosevelt, gentlemen

hats off to him. He is fine.

ONE-TWELFTH OF A DOZEN.
The Way Ingenious Tradesmen Make Re
tail Purchases at Wholesale Rates.

tail Purchases at Wholesale Rates.
1t is not every one who knows how to
take advantage of the difference between
wholesale and retail prices. All up and
down Broadway the wholesale stores
display the sign, ''No goods sold at re-
tail, - or the more emphatic announce
ment, Positively no goods at retail. "
Inquiry at these places will only bring
out the assurance that everything IS
sold by the dozen, if the stock be divis-
ible in that way, but as no one wants
dozen hats. or a dozen neckties, or a
dozen boxes of collars, or dozen suits
of clothes, the fact that the price by the
dozen is about 20 or 80 per cent less than
the retail price is neither a very COM
forting nor saving one.
The ingenious gentlemen who are Sin
trade have found out way to make
retail purchases at wholesale rates and
yet not transcend the commercial rule
which prohibits wholesale men from en-
gaging in retail business. When these
clever fellows want new necktie or
two, provided there are no samples
handy, they send around for ''one-quar-
ter dozen cravats" of such and such a
pattern, or two men who wear the same
size gloves will make purchase of
one-sixth of a dozen, while it is related
with much glee among the Baums and
the Bergs that one smart salesman put
in a seriously worded order for zone
twelfth of a dozen brown derby hats,
extra quality, size 49," He got the
hat, and, moreover, he got it for So. q.

Prize Fighting Among Fish.

One of the popular amusements o.
Siam is fish fighting, just as horse rae
ing holds high place in England.
The two fighting fish are placed in a
huge bottle together, and they proceed
to take each others measure, shoulder
up to each other in schoolboy fashion
and back and push around the ring, "
the small fins vibrating rapidly all the
time and each little being quivering
with excitement and wrath. This goes
on for some minutes, until, as the spec
tators are growing impatient, one fish
suddenly makes dart and bite at his
adversary tail. Henceforth there is no
hesitation until one or other gives in.
The Siamese back their fish just as
then the battle is continued until one
fish is chased around the bottle by the
other But this is usually an affair Of
an hour and frequently three or four.
The fish are reared specially for fight
ing and display wonderful pluck and
determination.
The tail is the part which shows most
damage, although it is very easily torn,
but a good grip on the side fin is very
effective. They display considerable
agility in evading their opponents
mouth and also in suddenly twisting
round and takinga piece out of its tail.
In 20 minutes or so these appendages,
which looked so brave and bright as
they started to the fray, are torn to rib

medicines help Nature. Take an illustra-

the torpid liver to action.
