SAGE CONSUL9S The MAP

Drinks of Curious Amber Fluid
and Declares Washington Is an
Ideal Summer Resort.

II Couldn't keep my pa tamas on to-
night said the Weather Sage as he ap-
peared last night, clad in garb so season
able that every muscle stood revealed. The
Sage was seated on a map OF ALASKA and
was eating snowbails when The Times
man entered.
Beside bin rested case OF bottles.
These Bottles Contained Curious mixture
of an amber color and which, when trans
ferred from the bottle TO glass would
seethe and sparkle till fIeecy foam would
gather on its surface.
This strange mixture would the sage of
the weather drink.
1T Is the best thing 10 reduce the temper
ature i'll summer and raise it in winter that
l know OF, said the sage, a-s he pouredOuJ
more and more OF the mysterious fluid.
II would rather stay in Washington all

Of this wonderful beverage than 70 To the
mountains or the seasfoTe without it."
Then the Sage poured forth another
glassful of tie curious potion and rolled is
through the yawning hiatus OF his open
pnysiognomy and on into the abysmaI
cavern below.
It mas been rather arm tOday?'' sug-
gested the reporter.
Yes, replied the Sage. You could fry
eggs On the concrete"
Then the Sage told the reporter that
the mercury Went to 80 degrees yesterday,
reaching this dizzy height at t O'Clock
in the afternoon This was not the
warmest day OF the summer, according
to that thermometer, by TWO degrees. but
the accuracy OF this statement may be
questioned by the Belt Line car horses

other organisms that had To hustle in the
