force the Law.

It is stated that the Maryland authorities
this spring and summer propose TO enforce
a law that is on the statute books of Mary
land forbiddiDg the use of nets In the waters
of the Potomac river. A resident of Prince
George county who resides opposite Alex
andria, and who each spring fishes small
net for the purpose of taking fish enough
to supply his family and to salt down some
for use In the fall and winter is reported to
have gone to Upper Marlboro a few days
ago TO obtain his usual license for fishing a
net in the river. When he made applica-
ton for 1t he was told that the Maryland
authorities had determined to enforce law
forbidding the use of nets In the Potomac
and that one of the Maryland fisheries po-
lice steamers would be assigned TO The
work OF patroling the river to see that the
law was obeyed.
The applicant is said to have assured the
authorities that he only wished fish for his
own use and would give bond that he would
not sell any. but his license was refused
II this be true and the Maryland aulhorI-
ties do not allow fishing in Maryland wa

Japanese More SkillfuI.

In the campaign carried on by that or
ganization. part commercial and part polit-
zeal. the japanese were more skiflful than
the English. They made no effort to bring
about commercial schemes. They did not
try to force the Chinese to buy what they
did not want, such as heavy machinery,
enormous quantities of arms. nor did they
throw into Chinese markets vast stocks Of
cotton. petroleum, agricultural or indus
trial tools They awaited the results OF the
insinuatlons of their myriad agents to ship
any novelties. the kind which the Chinese
wanted. In brief, they did not look for the
large channels, but for the small assures OF
fnfiltration, and they were found In the
many necessaries of daily life, not In the
needs of trade on great scale.

Dear Sir: When you see a we'll dressed
man, you like to say; "There's sample of
my clothes. That man is worth two OF himself
as he was when he came to me-
We have the same feeling. Our paint on a
house is worth twice as much as old-fashion
painters paint, lead and oil 1t looks the
same when first put on. 1t three months II
don't. In three years It decidedly don't.
Lead-and. oil chalks off in three years it i;
considered a first-rate job that lasts three
years.
Devoe lead.and zinc is about as good in
three years as it was the day the painter left it
Zinc is the secret of it no secret at all. y
good many painters know zinc; some mix il
in with their lead. We grind it in not little
good deal.
It's the zinc and the grinding that does it.
You can't mix zinc by hand. We grind it in
by machinery.
Painters are finding US out, though some
painters are slow.
You know that it pays a good man to wear
good clothes. How many customers have
you that know it?

An Internal Blood Treatment Called
Uric q is Widely Recommended
to Cure IL.
Every sufferer from rheumatism who
wants to be rid of the sleepless nights,
the nerve binding, muscle twisting hours
of pain, should get at once "a bottle of
Uric-O, the marvellous specific for the
cure of rhematism 1t matters little how
long one has suffered from the trouble
nor how intense the suffering. Uric-O
will cure it. 1t cures by its direct action
upon the blood, muscles and kidneys; it
neutralizes the rheumatic acid poison and
drives it from the system. Druggists
and physicians everywhere are recon-
mending Uric-Obecause they know that
at last there has been remedy prepared
which actually cures the trouble and
cures it to stay cured. 1t has stood all
kinds of tests and never been found
wanting. Uric-O is a cure for Rheuma-
tsm and for Rheumatism only. Mr. Nj.
R. Burt is the agent for Uric-O in Mid
dlebury and he would be glad to meet all
sufferers from the disease and explain
the action of Uric-O on all forms of
Rheumatism. The Smith Drug Co., of
Syracuse, n. Y. are the makers of
Uric-O, and will be glad to send any
rheumatic a sample of this marvel ous
specific on request. They sometimes
send full sized bottle to people sending
for samples.

mother, to Sir Charles and his friend

tertainment for their guests were sug-

toriously fond of a tub" and as their
guests were coming directly from the
train, they should first be invited to
take a bath. After that the hostess
would rely on the inspiration of the
moment. The young men arrived
promptly, and after some demurring
were hurried off to the bathroom. In
about an hour they emerged and went
Immediately to their hostess, Saying:
