The waist consists of the lining,
which is optional, fronts and back.
The sleeves are made in one piece
each and can be finished with the
straight cuffs or with the rolled-over
ones shown in the front view, as

There is undoubtedly occasion for
the alarms that are sounded with
each recurring springtime by the fish
ermen of the Chesapeake Bay region
concerning the continuously lessening
supply of shad and herring that come
in from the ocean. The fishermen of
the upper bay region. protests the
Baltimore American, claim that these
ocean-grown fishes are trapped by un-
fair and wholesale methods in the
lower bay region, while below the
mouth of the Potomac the fishermen
say that the annual runs are nothing
like what they used to be. Both state
ments are undoubtedly correct. The
trapping methods all along the route
are more ingenious and ten times
more extensive than they were twenty
years ago, which means that the vast
every springtime are being divided
among greater multitude of takers.
But it is also undoubtedly true that
natural propagation is not more than
one-tenth as prolific as it was two de-
cades ago, and the artificial Matching
by the conjoint efforts of the State
and National Governments is not any
thing Like making up for the nine
1enths shortage in natural breeding.

Not every business man who wishes
to increase his annual turnover by adj
.vertising can afford to invest heavily
in publicity at the outset, argues the
Philadelphia Record. The necessity
for caution in expenditure induces
some beginners to experiment with
cheap but ineffective mediums. There
is no greater mistake in advertising.
The novice has even more urgent need
than the expert to make every dollar
he puts into exploitation do more than
a dollars worth of work. A little
good advertising is much more profit
able than deal of bad advertising.
Small businesses prosper on small be-
ginnings in first-class daily newspaper
mediums. The most successful mer-
chants in Philadelphia began with adj
vertisements measured by inches and
worked up to columns and pages.

Remarks the Baltimore American:
1t may be that the unexplored fields
of the upper air will prove as fertile
for scientific research as the untrav-
ersed lands on the globe. Bleriot's
aeroplane accident is attributed to
the phenomenon of boiling sea of
air-a condition which suggests yet
more strange phenomena to be re-
vealed to the scientist who will work
from an aeroplane.

Silk is much liked for caps and is al
ways pretty, and the bib can be made
of thinner or heavier material, as
liked. If embroidery means too great
labor the caps can be finished with
lace frills at their edges and left plain
or trimmed in any way that may suit
the fancy, and made from bengaline:
velvet or any preferred material. Vel
vet with edge of fur is smart and
much liked for cold weather wear.
The bib also could be finished with a

Browning of Apponaug, r. l., is such

|E%uE time was the year 1872
and the place bend in the
river above long pond ter
minating in a dam. Beyond
this dam and on a fiat lower than it
stood a two story mill structure. 4
crew of lumbermen lounged about two
fires at the upper end of the pond
idle because of the strong adverse
wind and the unexpected weakness Of
the current, which had arrested the
progress of their thousands of logs.
Suddenly a solitary figure appeared
around a river bend. His progress was
jerSy and on an uneven ZigZag, accord
ing as the logs lay, by leaps, short
runs, brief pauSes, as a riVerman goes.
Finally he stepped ashore just below
the camp, stamped his feet vigorously
free of water and approached the
group around the cooking fire.
The newcomer was a man some
where about thirty years of age,
squarely built, big of bone, compact in
bulk. His face was burly, jolly and
Redeemed rather than tanned by long
exposure. \ pair of twinkling blue
eyes and a humorously quirked mouth
redeemed his countenance from COM
monplaceness. "Well, boys" he re-
marked at last in a rollicking big
hasn't spoiled your appetites."
Tom North. in charge of the lumber
men, rose. He and the newcomer, who
was Jack Orde, his principal, saunter-
ed to the waters edge, where they
stood for a minute looking at the logs
and the rufled eXpanse of water be-
low. ITS a pity that old mossback
had to put in a MILL" said Orde. 1.-THE
water was slack enough before, but
now there seems to be no current at
all"
Case of wait for the wind" agreed
Tom North. "Old Daily will be red
headed. He must be about out of logs
at the mill, and l expect Johnson's
drive will be down on our rear most
any time"
ITS there already. Let's go take a
Hook" suggested Orde.
They picked their way around the
edge of the pond to the site of the
new mill.
"sluice open all right" commented
Orde.
Orde walked out on the structure
and looked down on the smooth water
rushing through.
"Ought to make draw" he reflect
ed. Then he laughed. Tom, look
here" he called. climb down and
take a squint at this"
The sluice, instead of bedding at the
natural channel of the river had been
built a good six feet above that level;

pTE~Q HE next morning dawned clear
and breathless. AS soon as the
wind died the logs had begun
to drift slowly out into the open
water The surface of the pond was
covered with the scattered timbers
floating idly. After a few moments
the clank of the bars and ratchet was
heard as two OF the men raised the
heavy sluice gate on the dam.
-Four more had by this time Joined
the two men who had raised the gate,
and all together, armed with long pike
poles, walked out on the funnel shaped
b0oms that should concentrate the logs
into the chute. Here they prodded
forward the few timbers within reach
and waited patiently for more.
Jack Orde wandered back and forth
over the work, his hands clasped be-
hind his back. a short pipe clinched
between his teeth. TO the edge Of the
drive he rode the logs, then took to the
bank and strolled down to the dam
Meeting Tom Norths troubled glance
he grinned broadly. ~
Told you we'd have Johnson on oul
necks," he remarked, jerking his thumt
up river toward a rapidly approaching
figure.
This soon defined itself as a tall in
diyidual with a choleric blue eye.

he yelled. "We're right at your rear.
