FOXES ON ICE.
They Run More Slowly Than Usual and

II noticed in The Transcript your &C.
count of the fox crossing the ice and was
much interested in it, as you are the only

fox, when crossing ice, runs more slowly

Several times in my life have seen foxes
crossing ponds or lakes, and, as in your
instance, the ice was not always smooth
and they always seemed to run carefully
In none Of the instances was the fox fol

due to his trying to cover his scent.

CAUSES OF tNEBRIETY.

"Dr. T. D. Crothers is of the opinion,
says Modern Medicine, that many
cases of inebriety are produced by die
tetic errors, bad habits of eating, etc,
the deranged digestion finding it's relief
in alcohol, and this in turn aggravating
the conditions, and producing the drink
habit. Many cases originate in dieteic
decisions; in some of these a systemic
starvation exists, due to the peculiar
notions held in regard to food. The
treatment of this form of inebriety
consists essentially in the elimination
of toxins and proper nutrition"

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
The administration of the herdics has
taken another departure without advising
the public in any shape FORM not even
in the line of a card in its own vehicles,
telling its patrons that it was intending to

on the transfer at the treasury. a working

for a transfer ticket, expecting one myself;
the driver answered they had stopped Civ
ing them. This brought me to my feet
and l questioned the driver who
could say nothing, except that this new ar

day. We had to pay our fare in the Ii

eleven or twelve. | noticed when we had
to step out that she was sobbing; | asked
her what was the matter; she said she
would have to walk all the way to Ii and

aunt IN Georgetown and had to return to
her mothers home. She was only provided
with one car fare, and she did not know
what to do. either go back to Georgetown
