Beautiful Chevy Chase Lake-More
Popular Than Ever.

There seems 70 be no limit to the popu-
lariIy OF Chevy Chase Lake As the sea
son advances the attendance at this
high class suburban resort steadily in
creases. This IS doubtless due 10 the fact
that no other place or amusement within
easy access OF Washington offers such
opportunities for enjoyable recreation.
The many natural beauties OF The
Lake. are enhanced by thousands OF
electric lights artisticaliy grouped
throughout The grounds. Aside from the
numerous attractions that appeal 10 the
eye, there are nightly concerts rendered
IN excellent style by a large section OF
Jle famous Marine Band. With The ex-
ceptOu of Sunday tWhen the entire even
IN" Is devoted TO the CouCertt the band
furnishes the nnest dance music in the
paFliou at the conclusion Of The con-
cert There are many other refined
amusement features provided, including
howlin" shooting. rowing. and motion
pictures, the latter being presented in
the rustic theater. which was erected
expressly for this purpose. The car
service 10 and from Chevy Chase Lake
Is pTUVerblalIy satisfactory.

FLOGGED AUTOMATICALLY.
New Machine Adopted in the Russian
Army for Use on Unruly
Soldiers.

The spanking machine has been used
in farce comedy as a mirth provoker,
but the flogging machine now adopted in
the Russian army is more complicated
and serious affair, states the New York
Herald
The whipping has always been done
by other soldiers under the command
of an officer, and the punishment has
varied according to the feeling of the
soldier toward his victim.
The new machine is automatic in its
action, and as soon as the culprit is
fastened in position a spring is tight
ened or loosened to gauge the exact
force of the blow. A pointer is moved
over dial to the requisite number of
strokes and the mechanism is started.
With perfect regularity the victims s
back is scourged by the throngs, the
handle of the whip being moved by a
screw device after each stroke so that
the lash does not fall upon the same
spot throughout the punishment.
Each blow is of uniform severity and
as soon as the required number have
been given the machine comes to rest
and the offender is released, with the
assurance that the exact punishment
ordered has been meted out to him.

HAD ALL QUALIFICATIONS.
Career for Which Young Graduate
with Protruding Chin Was En-
inently Fitted.

Professor" said the young graduate
with the protruding chin, 81 am about
to start in life and perhaps you could
suggest some fitting career"
well, my dear SIR" said the profess
sor, relates the New York Sun, that's
hard question. There's law, medi-
cine, journalism, business, science
But have no liking for any of those
ordinary pursuits. You see l am
rather husky and powerful, but yet l
dislike to use my strength in any kind
of labor"
"Well, 1 won't suggest that you be-
come a policeman or pugilist, though
those are the qualifications. Tell me
further of your ambitions and will ad-
wise you definitely"
"Ah," said the husky youth, my am
bition is to be a ruler of men, to hold
some autocratic position, where people
will bow to me respectfully and fear
my power, and-and-"
"Ah, my boy, you are eminently fitted
to be the janitor of flathouse," said the
professor, decisively.

A cHIMNEY-sWIFT's NEST.
It Is Made Of Small Twigs Fastened
Securely Together with the
Birds Saliva.

One morning late in June I
climbed to the top of our house
to look around the country, re-
lates RussellM.C .Coryell, in St.Nich-
olas. I had not been there long
when l felt a rush of air on my
head and I saw a chimney-swift,
improperly called chimney-swal-
low, flying away for another
swoop at me. then realized that
! must be near it's nest, and look
ing down a chimney near by, 1
saw, after my eyes had become
used to the light, a nest within
three feet of the top with five pure
white eggs about half an inch
long in it. 1t was the first time l
had ever known chimney-swift to
build so near the top of chimney,
for it usually builds some few feet
down where there is bend which
keeps out the rain that would
soften the glue with which the nest
is held together.
1 thought it would be interest
ing to take a picture of the nest,
and this being such a good chance,
l did so, much to the dislike of the
birds, who kept making swoops
at me.
The nest of a chimney-swift is
not made, like that of most birds.
of hair, leaves or grass, but of
small twigs which the swift gath
ers while flying, and which are
stuck together with the birds sa.
Iva, which is glutinous.
1t is very interesting to watch a
swift, which is a remarkably good
flyer. 1t never seems to tire and
never rests except when it is on
the nest. 1t is on the wing all the
day and is said sometimes to fiv a
thousand miles in "a hours. Chin
ney swifts are good friends of the
insurance companies because they
knock the SCOT down and make if
less easy for the chimney to catch
| fire,

UTTERS AN AWFUL THREAT
Dire Measures Threatened by Saloon
keeper When Patrons Became
Disorderly.

Down on the West side there is little
beer saloon run by a little old-fash-
ioned Irishman. The saloon proper,
says the New York Sun, is about as big
as a good-sized hall bedroom, and is
furnished with a few tables and rickety
chairs and a small stove. Nearly every
night lot of Irishmen of the neighbor-
hood gather here to play As and drink
mixed ale. A few nights ago there was
row ever a game. They broke the
tables and chairs. tipped over the stove
and put the place in a bad way generally.
The proprietor took the shindy quiet
ly for about half an hour. Then when
two of the bunch were in a corner trying
to pound the life out Of each other he
spoke up and said:
Here, now! Ye b'ys will have to
quit yer foolin' or I'll take the cards
away from ye."

GIRLS WHO ARE LOAFERS.
Many Fair Maids, Not Compelled to
Earn Livings, Fritter Away
Their Time Doing Nothing.

a girl loafer. That does not
sound very pretty, does it? asks
the Philadelphia Bulletin. And
yet there are good many girls
whom the title fits. In other
words, there are girls who spend
their time doing absolutely moth
ing. Circumstances do not render
it necessary for them to earn their
living, ana so they stay at home
and fritter the precious moments
away in useless pursuits or idle
ness. Don't a good many of them
lie in bed in the morning and let
their mothers get up and get
breakfast? And don't you think
they also dress up in their best
clothes and spend the afternoons
enjoying themselves, while their
mothers stay home and prepare
the evening meal? And when
they are home they spend their
time reading trashy novels or
trimming equally trashy hats.
When a girl goes to party, and
is late getting to bed, she looks on
it as quite proper and natural that
she should be in bed late the next
morning, and all of the family ac-
cepts the fact as matter of
course. But if the mother is up
half the night with an ailing baby,
neither her lazy daughter nor any
other member of the family seems
to think it necessary that she
should stay in bed and make up
her broken sleep. Perhaps if some
of these girls could appreciate the
enormous value of time, they
would not waste it. Our lives are
such tiny drops in the ocean Of
time, that we can never, never call
back one precious lost minute.
Dear girls, don't allow your
selves to be called by that ugly
word Hoafer," and yet you will be
if you deserve it. Ifyour brothers
lie around the house all day, half
dressed and doing nothing, they
would be called Hoafers," so why
not you as we'll as they? "Loafng"
is habit that grows on one with
fatal rapidity, and unless you
want to be held irrevocably in its
clutches, you must break away
from it at once.

THE TREE THAT Ii PLANTED
Inscription on Grants Tomb Looked
Upon in Humorous Manner by
Thousands of Visitors.

Many of the thousands who WIS.,
it Grants tomb are at first lit
tie puzzled, and then are inclined
to laugh, when they read the fol-
lowing inscription on the bronze
tablet that stands few hundred
feet north of the monument:
'This tree was planted to COM
memOrate the greatness of Ex-
President Ulysses S. Grant by Lii
Hung Chang, A. d. 1897"
There would be nothing anus
ing about the tablet were it not for
the fact that there are two trees,
standing like sentinels, one on
each side of it, relates the Phila-
delphia Ledger.
(Which tree is it?" the visitor
wonders, feeling sure that he has
a joke on the park department.
Not a few take the trouble to look
up the custodian of the monument
for an explanation of the mystery.
When they leave him they look
wiser, and often quite sheepish,
for he intimates that. after all, it
is not so remarkable for a well-in-
formed man to know that when a
great man is to be commemorated
in this way it would be unwise to
plant only one tree. If two are
planted, one is likely to live. Here
both are living, and there is no
harm done.
