1t is rather q singular condition of
affairs at Washington that causes a
Republican president and Democratic
senators to consult together over leg
islati0n pending in the senate in
which the Republicans are largely in
the majority. II has been a long
while since partiSanship was at such a
great discount in national affairs as it
is now. Mr.. Roosevelt is swinging
further and further away from the old
leaders in the RepublicanNparty. only
a few days ago he declared himself in
favor of an inheritance tax. He is
abreast Of the times The distance
between his position and that Of

CUTTLE BONE AND SEPIA.
Where They Come From and WIN,
They Are Used For.

Where They Come From and what
They Are Used For.
Cutie bone was once made use of as
a medicine. but It is now used by gold
smiths as polish and by bird fnnciers
as food for Gagged birds.
This cutie bone, so called. Ia no bone
at all, but very wonderful structure
consisting almost entirely of pure chalk
and having been Mt one time loosely
Embedded In the substance Of some de
parted cuttlefish. 1t Is an oval hone,
white and hard on the outside, but soft
and friable within, and is incosed by
membranous sack within the body OF
the cutie.
When the cutie Is living this struc-
turc runs through the entire leugth Of
the abdomen and occupies about one
third of its breadth. In weight cutie
bone Is extremely light, and If 1t be
CIT across and examined through q
lens the cause of the lghtness will Mt
once he apparent. 1t is not solid. but
Is formed of succession of exceed
lngly thin floors of chalk, each con
nected with each by hundreds of the
smallest imaginable chalky pillars.
Many persons attribute sepia, or Chi
nese Ink. to the cuttlefsh. They are.
however, in error, for sepia Is a manu-
facture of SCOT and fine gums. The er-
ror may be due to the fact that the
cuttleflsh has an Internal sac under the
throat near the liver, that contains
very dark natural Ink. When pursued
by enemies the cutie elects this inky
substance and thereby forms cloud
of darkened water all about 1t and
hides In this water until out of danger.

ANTIQUITY OF BEER.
This Beverage WINS First BrcwoA by
the EEyptinna.

Beer is of great antiquity. II was
manufactured first by the Egyptians
and afterward by tile Greeks, Romans
and ancient Gauls. Eccr WINS mcntion-
cd by the following ancient writer's:
Tncitus, Pliny, Xcnophon and others.
The Romans are supposed TO. have in
troduccd the brewing of beer or ale. as
1t was then called. to the Britons, at
the time OF the lattcr's conquest by the
former. The Britons continued the
brewing of barley malt. calling 1t ale,
until about 1924 when the Gcrmhns
introduced the brewing of hops with
the barley malt. calling 1t bier or, in
English, beer.
The history of the New England colo
mics shows that the Puritnns were
great beer drinkers and that for long
time every innkeeper made his own
beer In those years beer was the gen
eral and popular drink. In the colony
of Massachusetts its retail price was
fixed by law mt penny a quart Its
sale to Indians was not forbidden. a
law Of 1649 ordered that every Wet
ualer or ordinary innkeeper should al
ways be provided with good whole
some beer for the entertainment Of
strangers.
The laws of the colony always favor
ed the manufacture of beer, and even
as late rs ten years after Massa chu-
sets had become state law was
passed entitled. "An act to encourage
the manufacture and consumption OF
beer ale and other malt liquors"
The act freed beer from all taxation,
but 1t came too late after series of
fiscal laws which for revenue purposes
had made beer dear and led to the i'm
portatlon of cheap rum from Jamaica.

During an alteration which arose last
Saturday night between Joe Collins. Il
white man living in lndiantown neigh
borhood, about five miles from Snow
Hill, and Ern Dixon, a negro who lives
near by, Collins was badly cut, and
came near losing his life as Il conse-
quence. The fight occurred at Collins
house. where Dixon and another negro
named Sam Harmon had gone To spend
the evening. Collins had some whiskey.
and all three had been drinking to-
gether. a disagreement soon arose,
and Collins is said to have knocked
Dixon down with chair. In the gener-
al miX-up which cnsued, Dixon attacked
Collins cutting him with knife ON the
face. arm and shoulder. Harmon. who
is said to bear a grudge against Dixon.
seems To have taken sides with Collins
in the fight. Collins was brought to
Snow Hill about midnight and had his
wounds dressed by DIR. Straughn.
Dixon was arrested about four o clock
Sunday morning, and brought to Snow
Hill and lodged in Jail. His trial took
place Thursday afternoon before magls-
trate Lewis, who held him in $500 bond
for the action of the grand jury. States

Dear Sir You are interested in the

tribute to il materially. and give il a
far more prosperous look al the same
time.
Perhaps the public property needs a
good coat of paint
Devoe will supply that coat with two
thirds of the number Of gallons required
of any other. Devoe will last twice as
long as any other. Devoc is all paint
and full measure DeVoe is the strong
est paint known. Devoe will take care
of the property, in the long run, for
half the money required by any other
The reason is stated above. Devoe is
all paint and full measure: the strong
est paint known.
+. ID. Jewell, Cory, Pa, painted his
house years ago with a mixed paint
took II gallons Last spring he re-
painted with Devoe; bought II gallons
and had 1 left. Saved $l5 to $50 for
painting costs two or three times as
much as the paint
