MANY BALTIMORE REPUBLICANS are very
much dissatisfied with the selection of DR..
Caswell Grave as the Republican member of
the Shellfish Commission, chosen last week by
the Board of Public Works. Mr.. John c. Sim
ering, secretary of the Republican State Gen.
trail Committee, in an interview few days
ago said: "Dr. Grave may have voted the
Republican ticket, but the records show that
he declined to give his utilization at his last
registration. According to Section 1853 of the
registration and election laws, no one who has
declined to record himself as affiliated with
party can vote at the primaries, and thus DR..
Grave is not member of the Republican
party. No man is member of any party who
is not qualified to vote at the primaries. Sec
ton "a of the oyster law says the board shall
consist of three members-one from the tide
water counties of the Eastern Shore, one from
the tidewater counties of the Western Shore
and the third from Baltimore city. A further
provision is that one of these three shall be
member of the minority party. The oyster
law does not say voter of the minority party,
blu. member and DR.. Grave is not member
of any party, because he declined to affiliate

ONE SUM THAT'S HARD TO DO. MT. clumberly Philosophizes on Vaca-
 ton rohIem.

From the New York Sun.
 'T never did have much of a head for figures said MT Clumberly. q never set out on even a half way difficult math- ematlcal calculation without getting lost; strange as it may seem, the thing that floors me solidest and hardest is simple sum In addition and this Is a sum with which I am confronted annually.
 Every year at this season there cGmes a time when we are finally compelled to get down to figures on our vacation ex- penses, to figure up on how much it's going to cost and how much we've got.
 'As the time for going draws nearer we always find that we have spent more money in preparation than we had expect ed to spend and that our visible available capital for the trip Is considerably re- duced.
 That does certainly give us little sort of jolt, and on top of that presently we get another when we come to make little closer estimate of what the trip Is going to cost. So now we find that the cost of the trip is increasing, while the capital available to meet 1t Is shrinking, and we've got long list of things to buy yet, to say nothing of our ordinary run ming expenses.
 "Then there comes a time when we sit down and figure this thing out in cold blood. We figure up the cost flrst-what the actual cost is going to be. We had originally considered the cost of the trip, roughly, as so much for board and so much for getting there. total so much. We had to be sure, added a little to that on that casual resurvey that I spoke of but now we proceed to put all the items down in cold figures the cost of handling the baggage and the cost of our own transportation, in addition to our regular railroad fare; we put down the cost of toat-we want one--and all the various incidental expenses of one sort and an- other remembering now for the first time, too that we've got to have a little some thing left when we get back. And when we've got all these things down, all these

How to Cure Insomnia.

There are several common sense ways of obtaining sleep, says the Worlds Work. One of them is the ap- plication of cold wet cloths to the back of the head and neck. This treatment will not be followed by a reaction if 1t is continued for a number of min utes, and it often works surprisingly well. Another way of solving the prob lem is to soak the feet in hot bath until the veins become dilated with blood, or the whole body up to the hips may be given hot soak. With some people two or three minute hip bath Is the most effective remedy. Others find help in few slow exercises which do not jar or excite the system, but simply bring some fatigue to the big muscles of the trunk and limbs. Eric tion of the skin. especially of the lower part of the body, is another means.

things that must be provided for. and have totaled the column up--l
 But the worst Is yet to come, when we come to figure up our cash assets, which we now do. We've got so much ac- tual cash on hand; we've got so much coming to us before we go away and we can draw on so much; and we tote that up and we find that the deficit Is some- thing alarming. And we've got three days to stay here yet before we go, and long list of things yet to get
 "As I said, we are hopeful people, and it's so grotesque that we have to laugh little over it; and then we get down to real business again. We get out that list of the things we've got to have and cut 1t down to the things we've simply got to have: and then we revise that list it's astonishing how much a list of that sort will stand revising If you have to re- wise 1t. We sit up then till midnight fig uring and figuring on how we are going to get through, and go to bed to dream of it.
 "Of course We do get through, somehow: we go and we have good time, though those simple mathematical calculations that we have to struggle with before VIC start, just those simple sums in addition, always give me, l not being of a mathe- matieal turn, more or less of a wrench"

Kites That Carry Men.

From the London Times.
 This year has witnessed remarkable development of the habit of kite flying, which it's devotees hotly maintain Is scientific pursuit rather than mere pastime
 "You would be astonished," declared Mai F. s. Baden-P Powell. a well-known expert, lat the number of people who have taken to kite flying recently. If I were living in a suburb I should certainly adopt it as a hobby. It is a fascinating sport"
 The war office has been making exhaus- tive experiments with man-lifting kites at Aldershot. and has reached a point in the development of the kite where men can be sent up to the tremendous height of 5000 feet, practically immune from danger from shot and shell, and in a commanding position for taking observa- tions.
 The meteorological office also makes use of the kite in it's work, sending up kites with self-registering instruments at tached. and thereby gaining valuable in- formation to be used in the weather forecasts. Birdseye photographs are ob- tained in the same way.
 The box flite (the invention of an Aus tralian) is the type used for hgh as- cents (the record altitude is 14O0O feeb, but the diamond shaped is still greatly favored by amateurs.

BABIES ON SLEEPING CARS.
How to Secure Good Nights Sleep for
 Everybody Concerned.

When travelling with baby in, a sleep ing car, says Good Housekeeping, insure a good nights rest for yourself and the baby, not to mention your fellow trav- elers, by putting him to sleep in the littlo hammock which Is to be found in the berth.
 This procedure is practically for all in- fants under 1 year of age and is the only absolutely safe sleeping place for them.
 Provide yourself in advance with a piece of cotton rope two feet in length. With this one end of the hammock is to be made fast to the lower end of the chain or cable by which the upper berth is suspended; the other end of the ham, mock is left on the hook from which It usually hangs.
 The hammock is thus suspended diago- nal1y across the berth; now put in two pillows end to end. These serve the double purpose of spreading and bedding. If the hammock is strung tightly 1t will swing clear of the person sleeping below and the rougher the road the more the hammock swings and the sounder the baby sleeps

WORK UNDER COMPRESSED AIR.
Sensations Experienced By Men Who
 Submitted to Tests.

From the Cassier's Magazine.
 Experiments made by M. Hersent show that when men are working un- der high air pressure it is essential that the process of decompression shall be very gradual.
 When the pressure reaches fifty pounds to the square inch one hour should be taken for decompression. For a pressure of seventy-five pounds to the square inch three hours were considered by M. Hersent to be none too much.
 Two Englishmen, Messrs. Hill and Greenwood have recently subjected themselves to a series of experiments, in the course of which the pressure reached ninety-two pounds above that of the atmosphere. This would corre- spond to a head of about PIP feet of water
 The period of compression was fifty four miutes, and of decompresson hours and IF minutes, or substantially more rapid than M Hersents experi- ments with lower pressures. The time spent under the highest pressure was only a few minutes.
 After coming out of the cylinder the subject felt some neuralgia pains in the forearms. These did not last long and were attributed mainly to the fact that he remained quiet within the cylinder, which further experience proved to be a mistake, 1t being of great importance to keep every joint and muscle in motion and to change position repeatedly so as to keep the capillary circulation actice In every part. When this precaution Is taken the rate of decompression can be in- creased.
 As the result of their experiments, Messrs. Hill and Greenwood consider that work may be carried out safely in 210 feet of water, or possibly 250 feet, the real limit being fixed by the fact that, when compressed, oxygen has a toxic effect.
 Thus. with an air compressed to ten atmospheres-equi to head of about $50 feet of water-animals are label to be seized with convulsion5 within twenty minutes. In these ex- periments there was no confirmation of Dr. Shells opinion that the presence of COZ in the respirated air has par ticularly pernicious effect.
 A careful record was kept of the ex- perienees of the subject undergoing experiment. At 16 pounds pressure the voice. it was noted, became metal lie, and at 45 pounds pressure it be- came impossible to whistle. At the highest pressure reached articulation was difficult. There was no marked effect on the pulse. Further. after the nervousness due to the novelty of the conditions had worn off, there was no feeling of being under pressure. The sense of hearing appeared to be rather more acute than in the normal condi- tiOn
