PLANT AT INDIAN HEAD.
Uncle Sans Proving Grounds in
Charles County, Maryland.

Most people have heard of Indian
Head, but very few appear to know
much about it or even it's location.
That it is tract of land owned by
the federal government so mewhere in
Maryland, where Uncle Sam fires off
his big guns and smashes armor
plate, is the very general and mysti-
cal conception of the place.
Outside of the proving ground and
smokeless-powder factory features,
however, there are some interesting
things worth knowing about Indian
Head, if it may be so called. The
fact is there is no incorporated town of
that name, but there are several clus-
tiers of houses twenty-five miles down
the Potomac river from Washington,
on the Maryland shore, situated in
Charles county, so designated. No
one has ever been accused of calling
this place town, for it is not digni-
fed with town hall or even a church.
1t has the distinction, though, of fos-
tering four saloons.
The dwellings number about thirty,
nearly all of which are lighted by
electricity, furnished with bathrooms
and water, and supplied with the usual
modern appliances found in city
houses. There is one row of six
brick houses standing alone. A
strong imagination might fancy them
lifted up bodily from some city and
deposited here in splendid isolation.
Another curious thing about Indian
Head is line of trolley cars. These
are for the exclusive use of the gov
eminent, however. There are no rail-
road facilities for reaching Baltimore
or Washington, the nearest railway
station being La Plata, the county
seat of Charles County, fifteen miles
away The only means of transporta-
ton is by river steamers, and these
facilities are not very ample.
Indian Head has a special reputa-
ton for malaria and the concomitant
mosquito, some of which linger here
at this time of the year. and in con-
sequence quinine is a staple drug in
the community.
Over 300 government employees
make their homes in and around
Indian Head. Society is divided into
several classes, the navel officers. of
course, having an exclusive society of
their own. There are practically no
private enterprises there.
The recent explosion has left things
in quite dilapidated condition.
Every house, in the vicinity suffered
more or less. Large sections Of
plaster were shaken down and window
sashes and doors carried away. AS
a consequence the houses are all
open to the weather. A large con-
tract for glass is on, and the prospects
appear good for getting the houses
patched up before the very cold
wesfher sets in.-Baltimore Sun.

/ My wife and are trying hard
To live on healthful diet;
We read the food chart by the yard
And run our kitchen by It.;
We've banished from our bills of fare
All that such guides condemn;
True hygiene is all our care,
As planned and taught by them.
For breakfast. coffee is tabooed,
Hot cakes and eggs forbidden,
And milk. since IL is oft imbued
With germs profuse, though hidden:
Bread is unwholesome, so is steak;
Submissive to our lot,
Oatmeal and graham gems we take.
And drink boiled water, hot.
For dinner, soup will never do,
And oysters typhoid nourish;
Salads, entrees and ices, too,
Are mere dyspeptic flourish;
Potatoes (by the last advice)
Are poisonous, we're told:
we eat rare meat, chopped fine, with
rice,
And drink boiled water, cold.
FOR supper-some professors teach
It's best to go without it,
BUT since discretion's left TO each.
We take our choice about il;
On chicken, waffies, tea and cake,
We are forbid to feed;
But gluten waters, cocoa (weak),
And prunes are all we need.
1t grieves us much our friends to view
SO reckless in their diet;
Our wholesome menu we pursue
And beg Of them to try it;
But appetite's ungodly sway
Their nature SO enthralls,
We cannot get guest to stay
Within our healthful wallis
