CHANGED HIS LUNCH ROUTE.
Mr.. Smith Was No. Longer a Mere
Newspaper Man."

Once upon a time Smith was anewspa-
per man. At any rate, he got salary
from his paper for the impersonation.
In those days Mr.. Smith behaved like
any other down lowly and downtrod-
den copy chaser. He loped around in
search of news, elusive and otherwise,
wrote stuff accurate and otherwise and
caught his meals on the fly. He wasn't
at all averse to galloping into a three
cent lunchroom sinking his molars in
a day before-yesterday Maryland bis
cult, sluicing out his lunch chute with
a draft of near-milk and hustling out
again to make going-to-press and other
connections.
But how times have changed Now
Smith is one of Mr.. Taft's hired men.
Tother day Mr.. Smith was drifting
slowly down the street, his teeth sunk
in the cold end of a three-for-fifty
Havana import, his patent leather
kicks glistening in the sunshine and a
slender silver-mounted initiated cane
swinging between the initial and mid
die digits of his left lunch hook, when
a newspaper friend and erstwhile col
league blew up behind him.
How" said the newspaper man.
"Just going to lunch. Won't you come
along? Guess I've got the price for
two"
"pawdon me-" said Smith, "but
where are you thinking of lunching?"
"Why, at the Quick and Dirty, Of
course" said the newspaper man, in
some amazement "Whered you think
l was going, the St. Regls?"
II just inquired" remarked Smith, as
he swung his cane tritle more to the
right, and regret I cannot accom-
pany you Those crude lunch places
strike me as-er-quite insanitary. Be
sides, I am taking my meals at the
New Willard now. Ia ia"
Oh, but I'd just love to tell what the
newspaper man said.-Washington

Get Awsy from the Capital.

Washington has reached its annual
low-water mark in the way of popula-
ton, and 'twould be of interest if
census could be taken to show what
proportion of the population of the ma
tional capital ducks from under when
what is generally Supposed to be the
hottest month of the year in this
neck of the woods rolls around, says
a correspondent in the capital city.
I have heard, though don't remember
just now whether twas on reliable
authority or not-that larger proper
ton of the population of Washington
leaves the city for more or less lengthy
periods in summer than Of any other
city in the whole country. The
proposition seems reasonable, and per-
haps,, when the census bureau gets
down to fine points, a bulletin may tell
us all about it. Undoubtedly it will
make those of us who, since the enact
sTlent of that dear railroad rate law
and the abolition of passes, have never
been further south than Alexandria,
and further west than Cumberland,
feel little better, anyhow.

WITH SPEECHES AND MUSIC.
Magnificent Headquarters of the Dis
trict Of Columbia Dedicated.

The residents of Washington-there
Is no citizenship there-celebrate the
Fourth of July by dedicating their mag
nificent new white marble capitol
building. The structure is officially
known as the Municipal building and
trative officers of the District of Colum-
bia government 1t is practically COM
plete but will not be occupied until
October L.
The exercises began at nine O'clock
in the morning in front of the new
building, which fronts Pennsylvania
avenue at the intersection of Four
teenth and E streets, Northwest The
principal speakers were George B.
Cortelyou, secretary Of the treasury,
and Joseph G. Cannon. speaker of the
house of representatives. A small pa
vilion had been erected to shelter the
speakers and the distinguished guests
who held platform seats, and the Unit
ed States marine band was under a
separate shelter in band stand. But
the 5000 spectators who gathered at
the opening of the exercises at nine
o'clock were soon dispersed by the
sun, and when Uncle Joe Cannon
closed the speechmaking at noon he
had scarcely a corporal's guard listen
ing.
The audience sang "The Star Spang-
led Banner" and America to the ac-
compartment of the Marine band,
Charles B. Hanford, the actor, de-
claimed the words, Gen. John M. Will
son read the Declaration of Independ-
ence and Henry b. F. MacFarland,
president of the board of district com
missioners, Chaplin Brown, president
of the chamber of commerce, and Adds
B. Browne, representing the board of
trade, delivered addresses.
Other exercises followed, and there
was general reception in the new
building at II o'clock All the execu-
tive departments of the government
were closed in observance of the holt
day, and there was suspension of all
business.

The Photograph and the Parrot.

The training of parrots has been
greatly aided by the introduction Of
the photograph, the instrument now
being used to repeat given phrase
for hours each day to roomful of

birds require various methods of train

PoIiteness Paws.

Newport has gained financially as
well as patriotically through its re-
formed methods of treating soldiers
and sailors in the United States uni
form. Because dance hall in New
London largely owned by the mayor
of the city, refused to allow sailors
on the floor in uniform the mdshiD-
mems training squadron that has been
making its headquarters in that city
has been ordered to Newport AS
there are two thousand men aboard
the ships, business in New London
will be sacrificed for the benefit of the
merchants of the Rhode Island city
which has overcome it's prejudice
against the United States uniform. 1t
is good policy to be loyal to the army
and navy.

ALMOST A SHADOW.
Gained 20 lbs. on Grape-Nuts.

There's a wonderful difference be-
tween food which merely tastes good
and one which builds up strength and
good healthy flesh.
1t makes no difference how much we
eat unless we can digest it. 1t is
not really food to the system until
it is absorbed. A Yorkstate woman
says:
I had been a sufferer for ten years
with stomach and liver trouble, and
had got SO bad that the least bit of
food such as | then knew, would give
me untold misery for hours after
eating.
j lost flesh until I was almost a
shadow of my original self and my
friends We're quite alarmed about me-
First dropped coffee and used
Postum, then began to use. Grape-Nuts
although I had little faith it would do
me any good.
But Icontinued to use the food and
have gained twenty pounds in weight
and feel like another person in every
way. I feel as if life had truly begun
anew for me-
Il can eat anything like now in
moderation, suffer no i'll effects, be on
my feet from morning until night.
Whereas a year ago they had to send
me away from home for rest while
others cleaned house for me, this
spring have been able to do it myself
all alone.
My breakfast is simply Grape-Nuts
with cream and cup of Postum. with
sometimes an egg and piece of toast,
but generally only Grape-Nuts and
Postum. And can work until noca
and not feel as tired as one hours
work would have made me year ago."

Musk Deer Of Tibet,

Consul General William H. Michael
reports that number of Tibetian trad
ers who visited Calcutta in March,
1908, brought with them, among other
articles, a large quantity of musk,
which is held in high esteem by the
4high-caste Indians. The little deer
from which the musk is obtained
ranges in the Himalayas and Tibetan
mountains, 5000 feet above the sea
level. The male deer yields the finest
and greatest quantity Of musk. The
deer are shy and alert, and difficult to
capture.
