LIFE WELL WORTH LIVING.
Massachusetts Man Who Has Es.
trseted Much OF the Honey
Of Existence.

There is a man In Massachusetts
by the name of Henry J. Turner who
has had, we suspect. more solid en-
joyment in his long life than any man
In the world. This Is. of course, 4
very strong statement, but when we
remark that Ia the last 40 years Mr..
Turner has. with hook and line,
caught II. miles OF fish. the gentle
reader will surely agree to the ssser
tion.
BY IL miles we mean that when
these FISH. nearly al. piekereI and the
largest not weighing over FIVE pounds
and the average weight not reaching
q POUND, are laid down. head to tail.
the line would extend IL miles
away. He averaged four fish day
for 40 years. counting In sick days
winter days. storm days. Sundays--in
fact, for every day In 40 years ha
caught four fish.
While II is easy TO calculate tho
pounds. distance, number and all the
statistics OF this 40 years fishing. it
Is impossible to estimate the Joy that
has come into this mans life. Why.
he has had more real. downright. up
right fun than all the presidents. cab
met officers, congressman. million
aires, euchre players. automobilists.
vaudeville goers all put together.
Just think Of those meditations and
exhilarations attending upon the 175.-
600 bites be had and the $4,000 fish
be drew out OF the water. That
mans Joy has been greater than the
mans who found bonanza, built q
palace to live in and drinks cham
payne instead OF water.-Ohio Stats

PRESIDENT AND MRS. TAFT
PICK A SUMMER CAPITAL
Woodbury. Point, Beverly. Is Site for
Home Of Executive During Warm
Months.

Boston, Apr 13.-That President
Taft will occupy house on Woodbury.
Point, Beverly, owned by Robert D.
Evans of this city, and adjoining that
gentleman's summer residence, was
the announcement made last night by
Mr.. Evans.
Mrs. Taft visited the estate during
her tour of the Massachusetts north
shore last month, and Mr. Evans was
notified that the president would take
the house for the summer.
Is Most Attractive Spot.
The Evans house is situated on Bev-
erly Cove and is one of the most at
tractive places on Salem bay It is
on point jutting out toward Salem
Willows, and is within a short dis
lance of the business part Of the. city
of Beverly. 1t is surrounded on three
sides by water and Is only approached
by long avenue, so that seclusion is
practically assured. Several promi-
nent Bostonians occupy summer es-
tates in the neighborhood.
In Typical Harbor.
Salem harbor will afford good an
chorage for any government vessel
that may bring visitors to the Taft
summer home, while the golf links OF
the Essex County club at Manchester
and those of the Myopia Hunt club at
Hamilton, are within easy motoring
distance.
Salem bay is one of the most popu
lar yachting resorts on the New Eng
land coast, and late in the fall the In
ternational German Souder races will
be held off this point of the coast.
