This IS the way new potatoes arc
manufactured in Paris Old potatoes,
the cheapest and smallest that can be
purchased, are bought by the rafisto-
leurs dc pommes de terre, as they are
called, who carry their property to the
banks of the Seine, a good supply of
water being necessary. The potatoes
are put into tubs half filed with water;
then they are vigorously stirred about
by the feet and legs of the manufac-
turers, who roll up their trousers and
stamp on the raw potatoes until they
have not only completely rubbed off
their dark skins, but have also given
them that smooth and satin-like APP
pearance which is so much appreciated
by gormands. They are then dried.
neatly wrapped in paper and arranged
in small baskets, which are sold at the
marchands DIES comestibles for francs
apiece. The oldest part of the whole
business is that the rafistoleurs make
no secret of their trade

until such time as relieved. He hadn't
the slightest idea Of bestilring himself
! as an official, and it never occurred
to him that he would be called upon to
exercise his official authority.
The unexpected was getting ready to
happen, however. -Four days after the
departure of the warden his deputy
took stroll through the woods with
gun upon his shoulder. 1t was simply
a matter of conscience with him, and
he did not intend to tire himself out.
He had heard OF no campers within a
dozen miles, and he was therefore con-
siderably surprised at hearing the re-
port of rife a quarter Of mile from
where he sat resting upder tree. He
knew that the flrearm had been dis
charged on the shore Of a pond sur
rounded by thickets and known as the
haunt of the moose. 1t was more than
likely that, whoever the hunter might
be, he had fired at a moose and vio-
lated the law.
There was q feeling of authority in
the young mans breast as he started
out to run down the violator. He did
not have much. trouble about it. AS he
neared the lake he heard d wounded
animal thrashing about in the grass
and water, and, getting still nearer, he
could distinguish person in a canoe.
That person was holding the discharged

she has surely shot a moose! What the
deuce am l going to do about arresting
her aud conveying her twenty-five
miles through the woods?"
Two or three minutes later the moose

"Thats rght-come ashNre!" called
Taylor. "Do you know thatNyou have
killed moose in the close season. and
thereby subjected yourself to a heavy

l am a deputy game warden, and it is
my duty to place you under arrest"
as it's 1t Mr.. Taylor?" inquired a
girlsh voice as the canoe was slowly
pushed through the grass to the firm
shore.
"Yes, and you-you"-
Taylor stood there for the next two
minutes and stared He had at lass

Damage From Meodovv Mice

The damage of meadow mice is not
confined to the orchard and nursery,
but extends to the fields of growing
grain and t. that stored in stacks and
shocks. They cut off much more of the
standing wheat than they ever con-
sumo, beginning their attacks on it
when the stems are still juicy, at which
period they do not consume any of the
grain itself. Ii the animals were few
in number their work would be of little
Importance, but they are often so nu-
merous that the az gregate OF grain
taken on single farm is enormous.

AN UNUSUAL VOYAGE.
The Task of Towing the Dry Dock

One of the most unusual and remark
able tasks ever performed upon the sea
will be the towing of the big floating

proposition for program for the second

An interesting set of music was gone over
by the committee, and after due and care
full consideration 1t was decided to give
two numbers of old Jewish compositions,
the first being chant called "Oh. Lord"
and the second the "Koi Nidrei.' For the
Greek music it was decided to give Nos.

probably carry no more weight than they

her square heels or the riding girl who used

her auto when 1t meets an emergency She
