Washington.-As a result Of the in
vestigatlon in New York by the inter-

Of goods by various shippers. it is
stated at the Offices Of the commission
that the present intention is to certify
the cases to the department of Jus
tice for criminal proceedings. with the
view to bringing about indictments.
This action, however. will be deferred
until after the commission has con-
Quoted further hearings in other cities
where it is alleged similar unlawful
acts have been committed.
At present it is contemplated by
the commission to examine certain
witnesses in Buffalo and Philadelphia,
where, it is said, frauds of equal II
not greater magnitude than those al
legged to have been committed in New
York and vicinity have been perpe-
trated. These latter. hearings will be
conducted some time during the
month of April. A member of the com
mission said that it was the determi
nation of the commission, so far as
possible, to break up the practice, and
that 1t was their belief that this
could be done only through drastic
action in the courts.

Many European cities on the sea.

waste to make use of fresh water for

salt water exerts very destructive
influence on the paint and varnish of
vehicles and merchants affirm that
the salt Is found everywhere and that
its deliquescence is attended with
harmful results. And again, salt
water is destructive to the pipes and
metallic fittings, and the leakage of
the pipes kills vegetation in streets,
parks and gardens.

GIVE SCHOOL CHILDREN MEALS
French Authorities Allow None Of
Them to Go Hungry.

mem 10 Go hungry.
In Paris the city government gives
every school child one full meal a
day. This does not tend to pauperize
the children or to lessen the respon
sibility of the parents; for all those
who can afford to pay for the meal
are expected to do so. On the other
hand, no Jealousy or contempt can be
felt by the richer children for their
starved comrades; for all are sup
piled with the same metal token
which has to be given up in exchange
for the meal. The "cantine scolaire,"
as this municipal soup kitchen is
called, is not confined to Paris. In
the provinces, the "soupe scolaire,"
its equivalent, has sent up the school
attendance by leaps and bounds
Here, however, instead of paying for
their midday meal, all thoseSwho can
possibly do so are encouraged to
bring to school their handful of
vegetables aud the like and the con-
tributions are all put into the com
mon soup.

Hard to Find woodcock Nest.

There are few more difficult things
to detect in Nature than a woodcock
sitting on her nest. So well does the
dappled plumage of the bird harmon.
lie with the dead leaves of which the
nest is composed. or, it may be, with
the withered bracken that overhangs
1t, that 1t is hard to make out much
more than the sitting birds darkly
barred head and bright black eyes;
to trace the outline of the body is i'm.
possible. Nor is it easy to find the
nest when the bird is absent. for the
cream colored eggs speckled with
brown are SO like in color to the nest
in which they lie that an unframed
eye would wander over them without
detecting them. - London Daily

There are women, and men, too, for

the lookout for unpleasant things and
who after while form habit of al
ways looking at the wrong side. Such
trait should be nipped in the bud
as soon as it threatens to gain head
way, for 1t not only leads to endless
unhappiness on the part of the perpe-
traitor, but makes life miserable for
