OF the quality Of the flesh OF cat
fish there can be no question; We
speak not Of the huge creature which
frequents the Mississippi and other
Western rivers. the flesh of which Is
coarse and rank, but Of the small cat
fish, from half pound to a pound in
weight, which abounds in fresh water
ponds and streams everywhere. There
is no exaggeration in saying that in
beauty to the eye, sweetness and deli
cacy to the palate and nutrition to the
digestive system its flesh Is scarcely
surpassed by that of any other fish
in the world.

M. Loubet's father owned a farm near
Marsanne, some ten miles from Monteli-

thirty-seven years.
Emile would have taken up farming
willingly, but his father was ambitious
for his two sons and wished one of them
to study law and the other medicine.

any active part in political matters, all
her spare time and energies being devoted
to charitable works AS soon as she was
installed at the ElYsee Palace she was
elected president Of the Society Of the Red
Cross. and only few days later she was
presiding at the meeting Of that admir-
able Union of French Women the OBJ
ject of which is TO train women as sick
nurses. Many ladies OF the highest rank
belong to this Union and ambulance work
is specially taught so that in case OF war
French women Of every station in life will
be ready to devote themselves to hospital
service.
Madame Loubet IS above all things an
exemplary wife and mother and she has
made a special point Of visiting most OF
the creches and dispensaries in all the
various departments of Paris. She has
also been indefatigable in her rounds OF
the hospitals. making generous gifts wher-
ever she goes and invariably carrying
with her to the children's asylums sup
ply Of toys and sweets for distribution
On New Years day she makes pres
ent in money to a certain number Of
widows who are left with children to
bring up and who, during the winter sea

meet. 1t was due to Madame Loubet's
petition to the Project Of Police that the
vendors of Christmas toys were able to
keep their stalls upon the boulevard a
week longer than formerly. 1t is general
ly acknowledged that no one who Is
worthy appeals to the Presidents wife
in vain. and her help is all the more val
liable from the fact that she takes the
trouble to learn something about the
charities to which she subscribes so gen.
erously.
AN EXCELLENT HOSTESS.
Madame Loubet is an excellent hostess
despite the gibes Of the old aristocracy,
and has proven herself quite equal to the
entertainment of royalties from other
countries. At the time Of the exhibition
the kings Of Sweden, Greece and Bel
GUM. the Bey of Tunis, the Khedive Of
Egypt and the Shah of Persia were all
received by the President and his wife.
and during the Franco Russian fetes the
Car and Czarina were delighted with
their reception at the Elysee.
Not only does Madame Loubet enter
tain well, but she always welcomes to
the Elysee artists and scientific and lit
erary men. She always accompanies the
President on his visits to the salons and
to the studios of many of the well known
artists She also takes a keen interest
in women's work Of all kinds, and al
though not by any means one Of the
platform women species. she is always
willing to discuss the feminist question.
Furthermore, she always accompanies

AGAIN TIE SCENIC ROUTE,

Editor Of The Optic,
Referring % recent utterances OF
your valued paper on the subject Of
the projected highway between San
Ia Fe and Las Vegas will you please
notice the language Of the law auth
orizing the building Of the same
wherein " il said the purpose Ii to
render accessible = for the
purposes Of trade and healthful re-
creation a section of country now iso-
lated. Further on 1t says the road
shall be built ION the route which
may be most practicable as well as
most direct"
1t Is the well founded conviction
Of many well informed and practical
people Ike Mr., Sparks that neither
the letter Q the spirit Of the law
has been observed very closely thus
far In what has been done at this
end Of the line. All agree In admira-
ti0n Of the excellent construction and
the beauty Of the views on the mile
OF driveway finished on the Hot
Springs mountain but one cannot
quite see how this is making the
Pecos forest reserve any more Access
sible than before, a good road having
been In existence already through this
part OF the Gallinas canyon.
However, II IL a waste of words to
Jilate upon what has been done
rightly or wrongly rs different in.
dividuals may believe from their CT.
ferent points Of interest.
One thing it Is hoped may result
from discussion Of the matter and that
Is the selection Of the best, most prac-
tieable and most direct route for the
line or the road II extended beyond
the Hot Springs canyon. On these
points let the advice be taken OF those
persons whose experience and knowl.
edge Of the country may be valuable
thus avoiding mistakes that may
have been made heretofore. The pur.
pose OF the law should be carried
out for the benefit Of the whole peo-
pie not for the interests of any per.
sons or corporations. Who is there
will not agree with this proposition?
Respectfully,
MOJINTAINEER
