MILK MADE IN FRANCE.
The Lactcnl Fluid of Commerce an
Important Item Among
Exports.

Where would England be in case of
war? She gets her bread from America,
her butter from Denmark. her cheese
from Canada, eggs and other trifies
from the continent, and--it has Just
been discovered-now gets much of her
milk supply from France.
Milk doesn't sound very war.ike. "As
mild as milk" is properbial phrase.
Still it is necessary to the fit nutrition
cf the future defenders of Britain, and
there is considerable complaint in Eng
land about becoming dependent for
such prime necessity of baby life upon
4 possible enemy at war.
London's egg supply has long come
from France, and as her coffins have
come from the same lively town il has
been the gruesome custom to import
Partisan eggs in Partisan cotfins of the
cheaper sort. using the latter tempo
rariiy as packing boxes.
The difficulty may be met by an inter
national agreement declaring baby's
milk can ccatraband of war, 50 that the
cheerful whoop Of the morning vcnder
could be uninterrupted by the roar OF
combat
measure more in favor however, is
the branding OF every bottle of foreign
milk made in France" How to man
age this isn't 50 easy TO decide.

Vote of Thanks.

1t sometimes happens that Fortune
shakes golden apples into our lap
when we least expect them and can in
no sense regard their downfall as re-
suit of our own efforts, which, how
ever. does not detract in the least from
their value.
A few apples of this sort fell to the
share of the Woman's Home short
time since through the unsolicited
kindness of Mr.. Milo G. Seipel, of this
city.
In offering to the Home the full
amount of the profits from the Uncle
Toms Cabin entertainment recently
enjoyed by our citizens, he not only as
sured to us q measure Of financial aid,
but gave evidence of sincere sympathy
in our work of caring for the Home.
In view of these facts it was at the
last meeting of the Advisory Board OF
the Home:
Resolved, That we. the members of
the Advisory Board of the Washington
County Woman's Home, gratefully ac-
knowledge our Indebtedness to Mr..
Seipel for his kindness in securing to
us his profits iu Uncle Toms Cabin
and that we thank him no less for the
moral support thus afforded.
1t was also resolved that the Marietta
dailies be requested to give place to
this note of thanks.

EAT BLUE vlTRloL.

Charles HugiiI, Attempted Suicide While
Mentally Deranged.
Mr.. Charles Hugill, machinist re-
siding on Gilman street, attempted to
take his own life Monday afternoon by
swallowing poison. Nothing but the
close proximity of a physician and
prompt measures saved him.
Mr.. Hugill had been i'll for several
weeks, notice of his condition having
recently appearedin the Leader. He
became mentally deranged and at
times was almost uncontrolab About
the time his arrangement was first
noticed he had been drinking and his
ailment was at first ascribed to alco-
holism. Later developments showed,
however, that he had become unbal
anced from other causes and that his
condition was very serious. Monday
afternoon he became impressed with
the idea that he must kill himself and
sought the poison route. He secured
possession of bottle of bromide which
had been left as medicine by his physi-
clan and drank the entire contents.
His friends feared that the big dose
would be fatal and DR.. Lambert was
hastily summoned, but the bromide
apparently had no effect upon him
Soon afterward he broke away from
those who were attempting to pacify
him and ran down cellar, where he Sc
cured the fluid jar used as battery for
the electric door bell. There were sew
eral lamps Of undissolved blue vitlol in
the jar and these he swallowed before
they could be taken away from him.
Doctors Lambert and Eddy immediate
ly applied stomach pump to the
would-be suicide and after several hours
Of labor succeeded in counteracting the
effects Of the poison to such an exten,
that he will probably recover from the
dose. Steps will be taken at once tc
have the unfortunate man adjudged
insane and sent to the Athens State
Hospital for treatment.
Hugill is about 2s years of age an6
has wife and one child. He had beer
employed at Leidecker's Tools Work;
previous to his illness and was consid
cred good workman.

TRANSPORTING LIVE FISH.
How They Are Delivered without
Injury at Inland Towns in
Denmark.

A new method Of transportation for
live fish from seaports into the interior
has just been patented by Danish fish
dealer, P. II. Lohman, of Copenhagen,
and the system is SO simple and yet so
perfect that one wonders why it has
never been thought of before. The in
ventor, says the Philadelphia Record,
had number of large bags made of
waterproof ma terial, strong oilcloth ap-
pearing to give the best results. These
bags, after being filed with water and
the fish to be sent inland, are laced at
the top and either suspended in the
cars from hooks in the roof of the car
or from folding frames taking almost
no space and allowing the close hanging
of these bags SO that there is but little
movement between the bags. They
may also be set upright alongside eacl
other, but suspension has been found
to be preferable. particularly for long
distances. Several transports of fisl
made over long distances have shown
the splendid features o: the new sys
tenn, for the fish arrived in eXceilen
condition after 16-hour ride.
