Summer gayeties are ready to begin,

succession of yachting parties, field
games, balls. and moonlight strolls with

when, one by one, the people who are al

away from Washington, will come back
to rest a bit until time for another sea-
son to begin. Society everywhere, Just

a transition state; every outgoing steamer
carries its group of Washington tourists;
summer homes throughout Maryland and
the Virginias are open, and both the rail-
way stations are full OF men, women and

Fashionably considered, the city will
soon be deserted; but looked at in an or
dinary, everyday light. the streets will be
pleasantly full all summer with very nice
people who will work all day for them
selves and Others and who generally get
a good bit of satisfaction out of life after
the sun goes down. Cynics who like to
think up convincing arguments to prove
that the world is wicked would find it ad-
vantageous to take a course of object

YOU HAVE HEARD OF MANY REMEDIES
YOU EVER TRY THIS ONE?
Everybody you meet on the streets nowadays
either has just had the grip is coming down with
it or has a cure for 1t.
The disease has been a puzzle to physicians ever
since Its appearance several years ago. and 1t is
as much puzzle today it was then 1t e1-
hibits such variety Of symptoms In different in
dividuals and leaves such disastrous results after
apparent recovery, that yet it's prevention and
cure has bafied medical science.
However there Is doubt but that the grin IA
catarrhal in character and the leading symptom I'm
nearly every case is increased secretion in the
head and throat, in fact, the first indications Of
La grippe are those Of q cold in the head which
extends to the throat and lungs.
DR.. johnson Ames advises as the safest course
to pursue on the first appearance Of grip symp-
toms to keep to the house for a day or two and
take Stuart's Catarrh Tablets every hour the first
day and every two hours the following day. and
states that this will break up the trouble before IT
becomes deep seated.
These catarrh tablets antiseptic and harmless
and prevent fever and the further development OF
grip germs, and ward OF the ever-present danger
Of pneumonia.
DIR. Gerald Simpson says: 81 have found Btu
arts Catarrh Tablets pleasant and thoroughly
reliable remedy for the grip especially with elder
ly people with whom this prevailing disease is
always dangerous; the tablets can be found at any
drug store, and II used freely during the first few
days Of the attack will break IT up"

that the Capital Traction Company's action
in putting on an open trailer in connection
with each of it's closed cars on all it's lines
the last week the 18th street, the avenue
and 7th streeD meets the pleased approval
of the people. This allows those people
who are delicate to ride in the closed cars
and also allows those who enjoy the fresh
air to ride in the open cars. Thus all are
pleased and comfortable, and therefore
happy. The cars have also been newly
cleaned. painted and vanished, which is
something else to be pleased about, and
1t is to be presumed that the same standard
of cleanliness will be kept up. Sunday the
cars were spick span, the conductors polite
the motormen good-natured and stopped

pie were out in vast numbers and enjoyed

the one mentioned by the controller. In
holding that it cannot, the latter says:
TT is well-settled rule of construction
with the accounting officers that when an
appropriation has been made for a specific
object that appropriation is exclusive, al
though there may be another which but for
such specific appropriation would be avail
able, and that the fact that the specific ap-
preparation is inadequate or has become ex-
