stone Arriving at the favored place
usually on oyster beds. he throws keg

end is reached, he anchors It with an
other stone and throws out another
buoy. After lowering his sail he waits
n few minutes, then takes his stand on
the bow OF his boat Alongside Of him
is his landing net with a handle six
feet long. He raises the buoy and

apply 10 an agency in Paris, which will
undertake TO send your letters TO prac-

demand for such an institution arose
out of the absolute horror the Partisan

remaining in Paris or It's environs In
the bathing season. One feature Of the
joke is that you can not only get your
letters posted from some distant spot.
but you can get answers received FOR

for American travellers In this. Why
not stay in America and do Europe?
